Marc Savard, Bruins

Welcome back Dennis and Callahan people around these parts are very happy to hear that the news is getting better and better every single day. The Bruins center Marc Savard mark has been cleared by doctors to play in the second round of the playoffs. This after of course original missing nearly two months of the season because of that grade two concussion -- to play and that could be as early as 1230. Saturday when Philadelphia. Visits Boston Marc Savard joins us on AT&T hotline AT&T a better three G experience according -- aria. We're doing very well do you have any do you have any -- to gauge how effective you will be on Saturday if and when you take. I'll but I'm really on this you know trying to work -- don't practice and all of I finally contribute. It. Yet you all about that. Obviously the coaching staff the medical staff one to maximize. Your ability to get back on the ice and stay on the eyes and do it with medical issues first and foremost in everybody's mind. But I'm wondering mark is there or do you think there will be. Some sort of psychological. Element of this but the coach will you issue and get to one of the eyes and put you out there. At a particular time to inspire the troops in to make the building go crazy if you know I'm talking about. Yeah all of our political sense I have a legacy that will play it. Launchers -- there's. It. -- felt. Like they're all abortions -- And -- We we obviously see how much stamina it takes in these playoff games -- how much will you have we you. Be able -- do you have any idea how much nominee on the -- should be able to escape what line you'll scale on how. How much of an effort you'll be able to give them Saturday and by the way you definitely plan. -- -- -- -- I think old Everett. -- yeah. It out. -- -- Agree about that. Here -- out so well we. -- while. Does that help at all that it's not Pittsburgh did you not you won't be in the middle of that circus at least not yet. And and you we won't you let them won't have to revisit. It quite as much because you won't be on the ice for Matt Cooke at least not to the next years. -- -- electing these. And child. A policy is back -- but. -- to do last night did you sit at home and and I root hard for Montreal and the judges. Watch the game without rooting interest or did you -- on the march. All I watch you know for sure I think the end they you know lines an -- -- -- And was full circle and it. We're talk with -- Marc Savard who will as he just told us the suit ups gave up lace them up for the Leo Bruins Saturday in game one against Philadelphia. -- Peyton Manning. Tom Brady and -- Carson Palmer all had serious knee injuries and each one of these guys addressed this. When they came back of -- serious knee injuries the city didn't feel like they were all the way back. And into the real flow of the game until they took their first significant hit on the repaired knee is there any of that going on in in in mule where you know you're not gonna know exactly how you're gonna feel respond. Until somebody really tried to take the body on you. Well. Yeah yeah. -- like it. OK now. Or. As. Think it was over for this year at least I mean it at some point I assume you need BO for a good long stretch she didn't. This team didn't appear to have much hope heading -- the post season. Did you at any point. Think this season was over look ahead to next year. For myself. Yeah. Is. Things got better. Actors as if it -- that. So. Very. It be normal again. Marc did you watch the injury I I heard you can watch it for awhile I assume you but since -- to see -- very many times. -- Really old logic but it -- -- think there. Since your head was ringing for probably out about a week after that you probably weren't aware. And -- since have become aware of the firestorm that was going around here in the newspapers and talk radio. That your teammates and respond like most people thought they should in particular Michael Ryder watching the entire plate now you're gonna get aligned with Michael -- runs on Saturday and the question was -- a Marc Savard will feel like -- -- to or or or have. Have to say we walked back into that bruins' locker room for guys who didn't stick up for him in his darkest hour can you address a little bit please. Well I mean. It's partly keying an old. -- in it in a heat wave. It. -- -- -- obviously it's a different Bruins team him without you in that per series. And can you tell us from an inside perspective mark what changed or what's different about this team than the than the one -- lost ten in a row in the regular season. Our. That will spot is. -- well. I think -- -- I believe it at all. All. Work together. Or. Eight given a concern Saturday around 1230 about being a little. Too jacked up a little too hyped up -- that somebody got to monitor mark. Trademark. Well there is commonly cat. It. Don't we watch athletes get all different disciplines and all different sports try to come back from a ten or 121520. Whatever it is two month -- They would talk about knocking the rust off and and and being able to kind of get back where they work and it's not an instant thing. We ask any Berkeley about this it would seem to be the being a center. On a hockey team in the playoffs in the National Hockey League might be the most difficult of all be understanding their fastball to a cult or you know throwing a pass as a quarterback would be difficult. But doesn't it is what's being required and askew view among the more difficult things in sport. I think so let. If -- -- So that are. Known. As well. And -- realize they are a lot. They are. In -- Help. It back. Sure after. -- Why. What put that same question Andy Brinkley earlier in the you know week in you'll be pleased to -- that Andy said. You're probably right is a -- -- for most players to do certainly great players in the National Hockey League but he said Marc Savard skill set is so high he is such an elite player that if anybody in this league is able to do it -- sort of hit the ground skating the coin a phrase QB Marc Savard. You do that -- at all I I think so I mean. There's certainly concern. Where. You. It. I think -- -- I I I -- this is really important to me you weren't number nine he won because you're the 91. Drafted or because you weigh a 191. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- My guess is there there'll be a lot of ninety one's sweaters in the building on Saturday -- so. Enjoy your time back welcome back and will be watching on Saturday the CL all those good luck. Marc -- Boston Bruin joins us some AT&T outline AT&T a better three GX there. It's text to Mexico appoints you guys called the Bruins. Babies cowards that they had no heart -- kissed their masses. -- to ask the question he's got a right you know I mean. When they lost and row in the and fight for this guy they work on the new got some are low enough time other Qichen as in the playoffs and we welcome again it's weird how that works yeah. Which is to criticize them don't you know -- it's a -- cowards and and no hard babies. Isn't that the whole story here at that this team has indeed flipped the switch Britons -- reinvented itself we've been the Celtics flipping and and I wonder -- goes back to our first discussion of the day. Is it because they understand more than even we do that the regular season means nothing. I got roast your approach certainly changes -- -- in the post simply can't -- that the switch and they approved it in a veterans know. And god knows Washington Capitals now know it doesn't matter what you do in the playoffs it'll start again in the policies more playoff to opera Doc Rivers on the other side.
