Tim Thomas Stars In New "Peggy" Ad

BOSTON (CBS) - The Boston Bruins have got off to a rough 4-7-0 start to the season, but it's not their starting goalie's fault.

Tim Thomas (4-4) has been as excellent, as he is sporting a 2.10 goals against average and a .929 save percentage. But, the team has scored just seven goals in seven losses this season.
