Daniel Paille notched a goal and an assist to lead Boston to a 2-1 Game 3 win over the New York Rangers.
He picked up an assist on defenseman Johnny Boychuck's fourth marker of the playoffs and then he supplied the game-winning goal late in the third. The Bruins' fourth line wanted to contribute more offensively and they were the driving force behind Tuesday's victory. Shawn Thornton picked up two assists in the contest and Gregory Campbell had a helper of his own. Milan Lucic recorded five hits and Matt Bartkowski led the team with six. Boston now owns a commanding 3-0 series lead versus the Rangers. May 21 - 10:45 PM

Daniel Paille got clipped on his chin accidentally by the heel of Leo Komarov's skate blade in Game 6 on Sunday night.

Daniel Paille scored his first goal of the playoffs Monday night.

It was the team's fourth of the game and third of the second period, and it came shorthanded. Paille is both a solid penalty killer and bottom-six role player. These are the types of players that make a big difference in the playoffs, so it's obviously nice to see from Boston's standpoint that he was rewarded with a goal.

Daniel Paille is feeding the argument among Boston Bruins advocates that Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Dion Phaneuf set a questionable hit.

Paille told CSNNE.com: "I haven’t seen the video, but I know my head got hit. I’m not sure if it was shoulder or arm, or anything." The Bruins are comparing that check to the one that earned a suspension for teammate Andrew Ference, but to no avail.

Daniel Paille got a goal but the Bruins fell to the Canadiens on Saturday night 2-1.

Paille is nothing more than a checking-line forward with no appeal in fantasy leagues. Johnny Boychuk had the assist; it was his shot that deflected off Paille's chest and into the net.
Apr 6 - 10:54 PM

Daniel Paille is expected to start Thursday's game on the fourth line.

However, later in the contest don't be surprised if he ends up on the third line alongside Chris Kelly and Rich Peverley. He moved up there in a game last Sunday and has played well with them before. "Especially late in the game, if you have the lead or something, it gives you a pretty good defensive player who's done that job for a long time," coach Claude Julien said of Paille.

Daniel Paille was moved up to the third line prior to Sunday's game and it paid off in a big way.

With Milan Lucic out, Bruins coach Claude Julien had some line juggling to do. In a season-high 17:09 Paille would wind up with the game-tying, 2-2 goal at the end of the second period, as Boston went on to win 3-2. "That was huge," said Tyler Seguin. "Going into a period, you want to have momentum from the end of the period. That was a tough goal by them. Then a quick turnaround gave us the momentum going into intermission."
