I think we can hang with everyone, even with some guys out.

In their last home game until February 26, the B's beat the Philadelphia Flyers, 6-3, on Thursday to sweep all nine home games in January and improve their home record to 21-8-1. Fraser Minten and Casey Mittelstadt led the way with three-point nights (1-2-3 totals each) and Jeremy Swayman made 33 saves. The only blemish on the night was the loss of Pavel Zacha to an upper body injury, leaving the game with 6:55 left in the second period. His prognosis was not immediately known.

Those are the games we'll talk about after our careers and stuff like that are done.

We talked before the game that this game was huge,

The Bruins placed left-shot defenseman Vladislav Kolyachonok on waivers on Tuesday for the purpose of sending him to Providence. The B's had claimed the 24-year-old Kolyachonok off waivers from Dallas on December 16 at a time that their blue line was hit by injuries but he got into only two games for the B's since then. Showing an eagerness to jump into the play, he nonetheless posted no points and was minus-1.

If Mason Lohrei's days as a Bruin are numbered, he's making them count. Lohrei has been the subject of rampant speculation the last couple of days as part of a possible package for Calgary Flames defenseman Rasmus Andersson. If it was bothering him, he didn't show it. The defenseman scored his fifth and sixth goals of the season in the Bruins' 5-2 victory over the Blackhawks in Chicago on Saturday night.

A man was arrested Saturday after a fight during a Bruins game at TD Garden that led to another man being hospitalized with a head injury, police said. The man arrested, identified by police as Aaron Tucker, 49, is set to be arraigned at Boston Municipal Court Monday on charges of assault and battery resulting in serious bodily injury, and assault and battery against a 60+ or disabled victim, according to a Boston police report.
