Eleven games left

The Bruins have eleven games left in their regular season and they remain in first place in the NHL.

The problem is, they are now only one point ahead of the two second place teams.

The Rangers beat them last night in what was a very close game until the end of the third period when the Bruins, down 3-2, pulled their goalie and the Rangers proceeded to drop two empty netters. This gave them a 5-2 win over the Bruins.

The Bruins now head off on a six game road trip against some pretty tough opponents. Their next game is tomorrow against the Flyers. Puck drops at 1:00pm.


The Red Sox are now less than one week away from the start of the regular season and I remain optimistic.

They still have two relievers that they need to get healthy with Jansen (back) and Martin (arm) both dealing with nagging problems.

During yesterday 3-2 win over the Orioles, Jansen got in one inning, faced three batters, gave up no hits and struck out two. Martin only got in half an inning, face three batters, gave up two hits, one run and didn't strike anyone out. The starting pitcher, Criswell, went an excellent four innings, giving up two hits, no runs and struck out four.

As for today, the Red Sox took their minor league team over to play the Blue Jays and they did okay. They lost 5-1 but considering they were playing against guys like Vlad Guerrero and Isiah Kiner-Falefa, that's not a bad showing.

Like I said, I remain optimistic.


Busy day and I didn't spend a lot of time hunting for links.

Enjoy these few that I did find:
