    Boston Bruins forward Nathan Horton said he's ready and will play in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup finals against the Chicago Blackhawks Saturday at United Center.

    "He's in tonight," said Bruins coach Claude Julien. "He feels good."

    Horton suffered an upper-body injury during the first overtime of Boston's 4-3 triple-overtime loss in Game 1 Wednesday. He practiced Friday and participated in the team's game-day skate this morning in preparation for Game 2.

    "I feel good. I'm ready," Horton said. "I'm ready to go and I'm excited."

    Despite missing the majority of overtime in Game 1, Horton said he had no doubt he would be ready to play in Game 2.

    "Trying to get ready for Game 2, like any other player here. We need to do better and I feel good physically," he said. "I'm not in any pain. I feel good. I'm ready to play. I'm excited to get going here."
