The Bruins needed little time to get right back on track against the New Jersey Devils. This game was very important for both teams as the Bruins are fighting the Canadiens for the division and the Devils are fighting to keep their playoff hopes alive. The Devils struck first with a power play goal from Kovalchuk in the first period. Tim Thomas was beaten on the one timer snipe from Kovalchuk but settled down greatly after that. After letting up the goal the Bruins buckled down and added goals from Shawn Thorton, Zdeno Chara and Milan Lucic, with Mark Recchi adding an empty net goal to put the final nail in the coffin.
This was a great showing for the B's and they played a great game. It was also comforting to see Tim Thomas get back to his dominant ways, as he had been struggling as of late.
Next up the B's take on the Montreal Canadiens once again on thursday, and it is a very important game as both teams are battling for the division
