Bruins Prepare for Game 7 Friday Night
WILMINGTON, Mass. (AP) – The Boston Bruins seem calm going into
Game 7 of the Eastern Conference semifinals after blowing a 3-0
lead to the Philadelphia Flyers.
The Bruins practiced for about an hour Thursday after losing 2-1
the previous night as the Flyers evened the series at 3-all
Boston coach Claude Julien said the team can't fear playing in
Friday night's deciding game, especially on its home ice. He sensed
from Thursday's workout that the Bruins are ready for the challenge
of pulling out the series.
Flyers captain Mike Richards says his team must play its best
game. And he says it will be tough if they lose the series after
battling back from a 3-0 deficit. Only two teams in NHL history
have won a best-of-seven series after trailing 3-0.
