Was at the game last night. Starting at 6PM, and going until 1030ish, is a long shift at the dome (head is a bit sore today).

To address the fans, there was a huge number of Bruins fans at the game. I actually did not realize how many until they scored in the 3rd. Add in that everyone is cheering Iginla as well, and that may have made it seem the home town crowd was not cheering for the team. This is false.

However, this was Iginla's night, and I am fine with that. Seeing the guy get 2-3 Min standing ovation to start the game from the crowd was amazing and gave me goosebumps. I have not felt that kind of energy in the dome since the playoffs.

Wish we won, but will never forget the game.
