Bruins plot to extend home winning streak vs. Flyers

The Boston Bruins get their final taste of home cooking before the Olympics on Thursday when they face the Philadelphia Flyers for the first time this season.

Boston's outstanding recent form -- 9-1-1 in the past 11 games, including an active eight-game home win streak -- continued with a 3-2 overtime victory against the Nashville Predators on Tuesday. The Bruins have a six-point lead for the final Eastern Conference playoff spot and are in a three-way tie for third in the Atlantic Division.
