According to CSNNE.com's Joe Haggerty, the Boston Bruins have a specific number in mind when it comes to Tim Thomas:
55.
That's the maximum number of starts they want the 37-year-old goalie to have. GM Peter Chiarelli has often said 55 is the "money number" of yearly starts, with stats to prove it -- Thomas won the Vezina in 2008-09 after starting 54 games and again in 2010-11 after starting 55.
All depends on Turco's play.
