Something's Bruin in DC... but where?

Where should I, a Bruins fan, watch tonight's Bs-Canadiens hockey game in DC? The game doesn't appear to be on Vs., so is there a good NHL-focused spot?

Best answer: Buffalo Billiards (Dupont Circle) is likely to have fans of pretty much any team in any sport. I don't know if I'd call them NHL-focused, necessarily, but it'd work if there's nothing else.

Oh right, forgot about this place -- if you're willing to head to Alexandria, check out Bugsy's. Definitely a hockey place.

Generally in DC there are sports bars dedicated to each team, but I can't find a Bruins bar in my quick googling. Can you post this to a Bruins fan site and see if anyone knows?

Response by poster: Thanks for the suggestions!

Tried RFD, Chop House, Green Turtle, Bar Louie, and Clyde's. None had the game. Buffalo Billiards did.

For the rest of the games, other places that get the hockey package (and will almost definitely put the Bruins games on if you ask) include Stetsons (16th and U, small tv though), the Blaguard (18th and Florida), Big Hunt (not positive on this one), among others.
