The Bruins are officially a playoff team for the 2011 Stanley Cup Playoffs after a 2-1 win over the Philadelphia Flyers. Ironically, the playoff-clinching win came against the team that eliminated them from the 2010 playoffs. The Bruins play five games in the next 10 days.

Word has just arrived from the NHL that Carolina Hurricanes wing Scott Walker will be fined $2,500 for rearranging Aaron Ward's face at the end of last night's game, but he will not be suspended.
The punishment is the second of a one-two sucker punch—a more accurate metaphor might be a sucker punch team-up—because the NHL rules prescribe an automatic suspension for any player who receives a fight instigator penalty during the last five minutes of the game. Walker's instigator penalty came with just under 3 minutes left to play.
