Besides thoughts of their sisters? [Stanley Cup of Chowder](http://stanleycupofchowder.blogspot.com/2008/12/bs-and-leafs-set-for-original-6-battle.html?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) is dreaming of extended winning streaks: The Bruins will try to stretch their home win streak to 12 tonight when they take the ice against the Toronto Maple Leafs, the only team to beat the B's in regulation on home ice this season. The Leafs will also be looking to continue a streak of their own, having won 3 straight contests.Wow, that looks pathetic when you put it next to the Bruins' streak. Here Come The Bruins took a look [the most unlikely 50 goal scorers](http://bostonblueline.blogspot.com/2008/12/most-obscure-and-unlikely-50-goal.html?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) and one Mr. Gary "Hey Al, your wife's real nice" Leeman made the list! Cornelius Hardenbergh [is feeling a little verklempt](Hockey is such a blue-collar sport sometimes.

Some blog or other said during the sean avery scandal-rama that "at it's heart, hockey is still a sport played by canadian farmboys."
