Rene Bourque bouncing back this year
Rene Bourque - W - Montreal Canadiens
Feb. 15, 2013 - 9:45 AM ET

Rene Bourque has been a different player this season, after disappointing when he first joined the Canadiens mid season a year ago.

Bourque scored the game-winner Thursday. He has four goals and eight points on the season, and he's also got 24 penalty minutes, making him a fine player for fantasy purposes right now. "It was a nice feeling," Bourque said. "We had some chances earlier, but it was one of those games where it was hard to get any quality scoring opportunities. The guys played hard and it was good solid defensive effort."
