Stanley Cup Final Game 3 Report


The Bruins were the better team in their 2-0 victory over the Blackhawks in Game 3 at TD Garden. You could tell from the jerseys how hard they worked ... the Black Final Set 1 jerseys were drenched.

After authenticating the jerseys following Boston's victory, I can report that five Bruins (Patrice Bergeron, Johnny Boychuk, Zdeno Chara, Nathan Horton and Dennis Seidenberg) wore more than one jersey in the game:

-Chara switched after the second period ... and wore his Set 2 for the third.
-Seidenberg alternated period by period, wearing Set 1 in the first and third periods. He wore Set 2 in the second period.
-Boychuk alternated period by period, wearing Set 1 in the first and third periods. He wore Set 2 in the second period.
-Horton switched after the second period ... and wore his Set 2 in the third period. His Set 1 jersey had some nice marks on the right shoulder, which hopefully will outfight the washing machine tonight.
-Bergeron switched after the second period ... and wore his Set 2 in the third period.

Daniel Paille, who has been a force in this series, had a sweet board burn on his left arm after the game.  So did Chris Kelly and David Krejci.

As they did in Games 1 and 2, the Bruins dressed 22 players for warmup, including defenseman Matt Bartkowski and forward Carl Soderberg, who did not play.

See you Wednesday from the Garden.
