We at Townsquare Media are truly saddened by the senseless loss of 8 year old Martin Richard during the Boston Marathon bombings. Our prayers go out to his friends and family. Tonight (April 17th, 2013) The Buffalo Sabres will take on Boston Bruins in NHL action and there will be an empty seat where this Bruins fan should be sitting.

It's unclear just what the Boston Bruins have planned for a tribute tonight be it's sure to be a tear-jerker. Boston Bruins Owner Jeremy Jacobs did issue a statement in regards to the recent events in Boston. Surely during the game tonight, Monday’s events will still be on everyone’s minds. If you plan on watching the game tonight, have a box of tissues near-by. Face-off scheduled for 7:30 on the MSG and NESN Television Networks.
