Boston Shows Strength, Solidarity at Bruins Game

1. Boston Strong. If you missed this touching moment of patriotism, solidarity and strength last night before the Bruins game, it's a must-watch. Refusing to be pushed down by the still-yet-to-be-arrested perpetrator or perpetrators of a horrendous act of violence at the Boston Marathon on Monday, the crowd took over the singing of the National Anthem, following a slideshow of images from the marathon. Watch the video above. Want to see the slideshow, too? Here you go.
