The preliminary round is over and Texas, and all that's left is the games that count the most.

There definitely was a downgrade in the talent on the Bruins' roster and Brimsek's abilities could only do so much to keep the Bruins in games and led to first round exits for the Bruins.

As for Theodore, he made his NHL debut on February 21, 1996 at the tender age of 19, playing just nine minutes in a game against the Hartford Whalers. In the post-season, his winning percentage of 71.42% is just plain ridiculous. Biron never seemed to get a chance to be "the guy" in Buffalo, even despite putting up solid numbers throughout his eight-plus seasons.

Brodeur has rarely shown emotion (with one obvious exception) on the ice and is unflappable regardless of what is taking place around him.
