Fernandez to Start: Julien Calls Out Team, "Not as Determined"

Manny Fernandez will start tonight for the Bruins against the Tamp Bay Lightning. He will be matched against 22-year-old Karri Ramo.

*Fernandez's Line: 14-3-3, 2.15 GAA, .925 Save %.
*Rammo's Line: 1-3-1, 4.22 GAA, .889 Save %.


*Martins Karsums, will replace Vladimir Sobotka in the lineup.



*Claude Julien called out his troops in a sense. The Bruins have clearly dropped the intensity level as the season has progressed.

"The little things that make a big difference in the game aren't there anymore," Claude Julien said of his team's play. "We've addressed that. Hopefully we can turn the corner and start committing a little bit more. If we do that, I think we'll be a harder team to play against."

"It's been oncoming," said Julien. "We have to be honest with ourselves and know that our game is not where it was. To me, we're not as determined and committed as we were at one point of the season."
