Bergeron to IR. St. Pierre to Providence

Add Nuggets, Wolves To Conference Semifinals Lore

This has been an instant classic series without an instant classic game. It has seemingly been over twice and now we get to watch two superduperstars on supremely well-constructed teams in a Game 7.

Kel'el Ware has stretch center potential, while also possessing a floor as a playable rim-runner, which says a lot about him as a prospect.

The Wolves Owned All 4,700 Basketball Squares

by John Wilmes

Minnesota's defensive effort in Game 2 was a transformative sight. In what appeared to be an effort to become one with their team name, they swarmed, smashed, hounded, snarled, took, and destroyed for 24 straight minutes to start the game. Not an inch of the court was safe.

Boston Bruins General Manager Peter Chiarelli announced today that the club has assigned center Martin St. Pierre to the Providence Bruins (American Hockey League) and placed forward Patrice Bergeron on injured reserve.

Sad news on the bergeron front, kind of expected though.

St. Pierre did pretty well while he was up here. Savard can make anyone look good though.

Might as well take their time and not risk further damage when you have guys like st. pierre stepping up.

The kid has a lot of skill. 3 zone player, I'm really starting to like this prospect. I think he defiantly has a spot on this team next season, if not this season.

I was wondering why he played last night, then realized they recalled him. That was fast.

He really does have talent. When we traded pelltier for this guy, I thought it would be a minor move, but looks like Chia made a good deal.
