There will not be any late heroics by Mike Richards and the Flyers.
The Bruins have defeated the Flyers in four straight games.
Milan Lucic scored twice, his first two goals of the post season. Johnny Boychuk scored the GWG. .
Tim Thomas made 22 saves to deny the Flyers access to the Boston net.
At the lonely end of the rink, Sergei Bobrovsky played heroically in his net and he gave his team the opportunity to win Game 4. The blame in this game lays atthe feet of the top 6 forwards-- Richards, Giroux, Carter, Hartnell, Briere, JVR.
The Philly D could not move Lucic, Horton, Marchand and the Bruins forwards out of Bob's blue ice.
Dan Carcillo took a couple of selfish penalties that sabbotaged his team's strong efforts.
In the end, the Bruins advance to their first Eastern Conference Finals since 1992.
Patrice Bergeron was knocked silly by a stiff check from Claude Giroux, and his availability for Game 1 vs. Tampa will not be known for some thime. Bergeron has a history of concussion issues, and he sprinted off the ice and into the Boston room after the hit.
Gregory Campbell absorbed Bergeron's icetime after the injury.
If Bergeron cannot play, Its likely that Tyler Seguin will be activated to take Bergeron;splace in the lineup.
