The Bruins honored the 2009 NCAA hockey champion team from Boston University during a break in the first period. The Boston Terriers won the 2009 NCAA hockey championship in Bean Town style--hard blue collar work.
The Terriers were down 3 to 1 with only a minute left in the game and in the hockey world, coming back from such a large deficit with so little time left would be like getting the cartels in South America to stop selling drugs. However, this didn't discourage the Terriers from digging in and working diligently until that final whistle would blow.
Amazingly, the Terriers were able to score a goal putting them with in one point from forcing an overtime. However, with seconds remaining it appeared as though the Terriers would suffer defeat, that is until they did the unimaginable and scored another goal tying the game.
The Terriers would triumph over Miami and take home the championship title and this is why the Burins were honoring them during the first period of the first 2009 Stanley Cup playoff game against their biggest rival...Montreal, Canadiens.
This was the head coaches 30th tournament win, which broke the old record of 29, and the senior classes 100th win!
The Terriers 2009 NCAA hockey championship game is truly an inspiration to never quit, never give-in to unbeatable odds, and most importantly--never stopping working towards your goals until that final whistle has blown.
BTW...the Bruins won their first 2009 Stanley Cup playoff game against the Canadiens, 4-2.
