IS THIS THE TURNING POINT IN THE SEASON FOR THE BLACK AND GOLD?


The Boston Bruins trailed the entire game until 4:23 left to play in Pittsburgh where they exploded for four goals in the third period and may have saved Claude Julien his job.  The B's were down 2-0 for almost two periods where they ended up fighting back against one of the hottest teams in hockey to edge the Penguins 4-2.

The Bruins scored two goals in :12 seconds.  One was a powerplay goal from Captain Zdeno Chara and the other by Brad Marchand.  The ageless Mark Recchi buried the game winner on a power play goal with :50 seconds left assisted by Seidenberg and Michael Ryder.  Gregory Campbell put the dagger in Penguins fans hearts with the empty netter with :08 seconds to play. 

This game has to be the turning point in the Bruins season, a come from behind win against a very talented team on their home ice.  Tuukka Rask had 23 saves on 25 shots notching a victory the Bruins desperately needed after the collapse in Montreal a few nights back.  Oh by the way, Claude Julien is smiling somewhere as well.
