Unquestionably one of the highlights from the Boston Bruins' Game 3 win over the Buffalo Sabres was Johnny Boychuk's hit on Matt Ellis. The hit electrified the TD Garden and sent Ellis to the locker room.

Hits like this one sure make the Bruins seem like a completely different team than the one that came under fire from fans for their response to the Marc Savard hit.

Are the Big Bad Bruins back? Watch the video and judge for yourself.
