BOSTON (CBS) – The Boston Bruins plan to head back to the US, rather than stay in Montreal between games three and four of their NHL Playoff series against the Canadiens.
With a two-day break between games, the Bruins will travel to Lake Placid, NY following Monday night’s game three, where they will practice Tuesday and Wednesday. The team will travel back to Montreal Wednesday night to be ready for Thursday’s game four.
