Playing in Providence during the 2012-13 half season lockout, Bruins defenseman Torey Krug became good friends with then teammate Chris Bourque and as a result formed a relationship with Bourque's father, Hall Of Famer Ray Bourque. After a rough first half of the regular season, Krug called on the legendary Bruin seeking advice and Bourque - who made it very clear in the latest Bruins Beat below, that he's a big fan of Krug - gave him one heck of a pep talk. "We've kind of created a little relationship that every once in a while he'll text me or I'll text him on a good game or whatever," Bourque explained. "At some point in time he was in a little funk and he wanted to chat, and we had a nice chat at some point in time.  He's a special player and whenever I speak to him it's 'Hey! You are special; you can do special things. You'll see at times, something might happen, it's a game of mistakes, but you have the ability to make special plays and you cane never, never get away from that! Don't let a bad pass or a bad play or a bad shift, affect the rest of your game because the next time you're out there, that's going to be there for you again, and you're going to make that play." After having his best regular season to date with 14 goals and 45 assists for 59 points - and also becoming the first Bruins defenseman since Bourque to have three consecutive 40-point seasons - Krug has registered a point in four of five games in his team's Eastern Conference quarterfinals series with the Maple Leafs that heads to Toronto for Game 6 Monday after the Bruins failed to clinch the series Saturday in a 4-3 loss in Game 5.
