NO DANNY BOY

When the Montreal Canadiens take on the Boston Bruins tonight, they will do so without Daniel Briere. He is a healthy scratch for the Habs as coach Michel Therrien favors Brandon Prust in Game 5. Briere has one goal and three assists in eight games so far in the playoffs while playing on the forth line. The fact is that Daniel Briere is as good a clutch player as they come and I think Therrien has wasted his clutch abilities putting him on the forth line against Boston. 113 points in 116 playoff games speaks volumes. If Game 5 goes to Boston, I'm pretty sure he will be back in the lineup for Game 6 in Montreal.
