B's Lose to Avs 4-1

Yet another abysmal performance from my favourite men in gold and black. The Bruins lost the Colorado and only put up 21 shots on rookie goaltender Vitaliy Kolesnik. For Kolesnik it was his first career NHL game and the rare times he was tested, Kolesnik was up for the challenge. Boston gave up the first goal of the game (again) just under 12 minutes in, when Milan Hejduk out waited Andrew Raycroft and tucked the puck into the net. Boston tied it up with less than 30 seconds to go in the first when hot-handed Marco Sturm tucked in his own breakaway rebound. For Bruins fans, this pretty much is when the television could have been turned off because the rest of the game was certainly no gem. The game winning goal was scored by Alex Tanguay in the second period after a brutal cough up by Brian Leetch. After intercepting Leetch's pass, Tanguay completed the play by undressing Raycroft and roofing the puck into the top of the net. Unluckily for B's fans who managed to watch the remainder of the game, the rest of the goals were scored by Colorado and in our household, were followed with many choruses of profanity. Ah well, Sunday is another game...Boston hosts the Phoenix Coyotes on December 11th. One thing that is great is I have my new toy to console me during my cursing rage fits...
Thanks again Kate, I smile just thinking about it!
