Bruins past meets the future on Latvia's third line

Kaspars Daugavins is a name that Boston Bruins fans haven't thought about in quite some time. Some might even forget that Daugavins played 12 games combined between the regular season and playoffs during the 2012-13 season, nearly getting the chance to raise the Stanley Cup for the first time in his career if the Bruins had finished the job against the Chicago Blackhawks. We'll try not to remember the role he played in not finishing that job.

Daugavins' Bruins tenure wasn't the most successful marriage, as he had just one assist in those 12 games. Boston fans might remember him better as the player who tried the cheeky shootout move against Tuukka Rask when he faced the goaltender as a member of the Ottawa Senators.
