Good morning! Raise your hand if you're sick of lousy Smarch weather. Good -- just so we're all on the same page.
--Another dynamite game for Brad Marchand last night against the Red Wings, as he finished the game with five points, including the game-winning goal on OT. He now has six goals and five assists for 11 points in the last six games, impressive considering that the Bruins haven't have Patrice Bergeron in the lineup for the last four contests. (Looking forward to that New England revenge game Thursday night at the TD Garden between the Bruins and Flyers.)
--Since I'm handling the lead-in to the daily briefing today and I went to Northeastern, I'm obligated to mention the fact the Huskies got screwed by a lousy officiating crew in last night's CAA final against Charleston. Props to the Cougars for coming back from 17 down, but some home-cooking from the refs means that Northeastern misses out on a trip to the NCAA tournament. But hey, Bill Murray was happy, so there's that.
