Tonight the Boston Bruins will honor the local armed forces and their families with “Military Appreciation Night” when they take on the Florida Panthers. Bruins player, Mark Stuart purchased $5,000 worth the tickets to give to donate to the families for tonight’s game.

The Bruins have been more than impressive of late as they have won two in a row for the first time this season beating two of the top teams in the East to boot. Tonight the Florida Panthers come to town riding a two game losing streak and barely staying out of the cellar in the East, easy game for the good guys right? Not so fast scooter.

Tonight is a tough game mentally for the Bruins and they need to take the Panthers seriously or that nice 2 game winning streak will be no more. The B’s have a huge rematch Saturday night against the Penguins and have to worry about that game after they take care of business with Florida tonight. The B’s haven’t announced who will play net tonight as both Tim Thomas and Tuuka Rask have been extremely solid between the pipes.The Bruins beat the Panthers 3 of the 4 meetings between these two teams last season with the B’s out scoring Florida 14-5.
