Nathan Horton, Tim Thomas, and Brad Marchand were stars of the 2011 playoff run, but one singular play from Michael Ryder changed everything.
"Without that play right there, there is no Stanley Cup in 2011." Who better to describe what Michael Ryder's glove save meant to the Boston Bruins than someone who was there, the Bruins Director of Health, Fitness & Wellness, John Whitesides. Most people look at that playoff run and think of Nathan Horton's heroics or Tim Thomas' stellar play, but none of that likely happens if Ryder hadn't been in the right place at the right time.
