BostonBruins.com - The Bruins get right back to it on Wednesday night as they take on the Tampa Bay Lightning in Game 3 of their second-round series, aiming to open up a 2-1 series lead. Despite the tight turnaround from Tuesday night's Game 2 setback, Jaroslav Halak will get the start between the pipes.
"He did not skate on the ice today, so he's recovered well. That's the plan," Cassidy said on Wednesday afternoon in Toronto.
Cassidy went on to say that the team is not scared of starting rookie Dan Vladar but acknowledged it would be a difficult task for the 23-year-old who has never played in a National Hockey League game.
