| After seeking justice through the National Hockey League, the Bruins struck out once again.
NHL disciplinarian Colin Campbell announced yesterday at the general managers meetings that Pittsburgh Penguins forward Matt Cooke would not be suspended for his blindside hit to the head of Marc Savard, one that left the B’s center with a grade 2 concussion and could have ended his career....

| | Though Marc Savard was able to return to Boston yesterday after suffering a concussion Sunday from a blind-side hit delivered by the Pittsburgh Penguins’ Matt Cooke, Bruins [team stats] general manager Peter Chiarelli said the head injury hardly was minor.

| | For Patrice Bergeron, it was especially painful to witness what happened to teammate Marc Savard yesterday.
“It made me sick to my stomach to see that,” said Bergeron, who watched yesterday a scene horribly reminiscent of his own severe concussion suffered two seasons ago.
Savard, an instant after taking a shot late in the Penguins’ 2-1 victory, was the victim of a...

| | Tim Thomas recorded his first win since Jan. 14 last night. And his Bruins teammates made him work for it.
In one of the sloppiest games the B’s have played all year, they survived the Toronto Maple Leafs by winning in a shootout, 3-2.
Miroslav Satan, who scored in regulation, also notched the only goal of the shootout, and Thomas stopped Phil Kessel [stats], Jamie Lundmark and...

 |
smokeyboy found this 7 days ago on www.bostonherald.com
| | Derek Morris hooked on with the Bruins last summer in hope that signing with a perceived Stanley Cup contender would rejuvenate his game. To a certain extent, it did. But the Bruins haven’t lived up to their end of the bargain as a preseason Cup pick.
That’s a cold reality that has gnawed at Morris.

| Minutes before the Bruins opened post-Olympic play against the Montreal Canadiens at the Garden, general manager Peter Chiarelli said he hopes to make a trade that adds scoring help before today’s 3 p.m. NHL trade deadline.
But Chiarelli said he did not feel a trade is something he absolutely has to do.

Bruins objective: Just win

smokeyboy found this 9 days ago on news.bostonherald.com
| | There could be some in the Bruins [team stats] dressing room who imagine the B’s, having won their final four games before the Olympic break to climb to seventh in the Eastern Conference, are all set for the playoffs.
Such thinking would probably mean the Bruins are set up only for failure.
Because as general manager Peter Chiarelli beat the NHL bushes yesterday seeking a...
