Roche: I Like The Bruins In Game 6

BOSTON (CBS) - I Like Bruins in Game Six

If the Bruins stay true to form they will play a very good game tonight in Game Six of their Eastern Conference Final against the Lightning in Tampa.

Will they win? I think so.

I am not as confident as I was in Game 5, but I think the B's are primed for a victory.

Sports Blog: Why Boo The Bruins?

I think they simply go in and play a classic Boston Bruins road game like they did in Game 3. They need to get off to a decent start. I would love to see a 0-0 first period, almost a boring type of game. If they can do that, then they will wear down the Lightning, who will be playing desperate hockey.

After that, it's time to unleash the forechecking Bruins and come up with a few goals. Then, turn it over to Tim Thomas.

Sounds good on paper, but what you fear is a desperate Tampa team. They have come a long way and won't go quietly.

Doesn't mean the B's can't silence them though, right?

Enjoy the game.
