TD Garden will be rocking Saturday night.
For the first time in nearly two years, the arena will be at almost full capacity for a Boston Bruins postseason game with the Original Six franchise getting ready to host the New York Islanders for Game 1 of their second-round Stanley Cup Playoff series.
Massachusetts lifted its COVID-19 restrictions Saturday, and sports fans around the region are very excited to get back to the Garden and cheer for the Bruins and Celtics amid their playoff runs.
Adding to the excitement surrounding the B’s is the fact that they look like a real title contender right now. The Bruins lost the opening game of their first-round series versus the Capitals but won the next four to advance to the second round for the fourth consecutive season.
If people weren’t already amped up for Game 1 against the Islanders, the Bruins released an awesome hype video for the series opener that will get fans fired up.
