PREVIEW 37: Bruins vs. Habs - Jagr's First Taste of the Rivalry

This is gonna be a super duper short game preview 'cause Team DOY will be at Blogapolooza all afternoon and then at the Harp for tonight's Viewing Party. Come on out.

There'll be a trivia contest to win prizes, too.

Obviously this is a huge game standings wise for the Bruins and Habs. Bruins are one point back of the Habs and with a game in hand. A win gives them the Northeast Division lead. Habs have been beating most people's expectations this year, too, so tonight will be a battle.

Tonight will also give Jaromir Jagr his first taste of the Bruins-Habs rivavlry. He wanted to sign with Montreal, so the fact that he's with Boston now is amusing. Nice job, Chia. Jagr basically was playing on two hours of sleep against the Devils the other night. We're stoked for what a well rested Jagr can do with Seguin and Marchand as line mates.
