Milt Schmidt, Woody Dumart and Bobby Bauer made up one of the most famous lines in Bruins history. Their German last names earned them the nickname "The Kraut Line."   

In 1942 their country called on them to serve in the Second World War. On February 10, 1942 they played their final game at Boston Garden before being shipped out.   

After an 8-1 blow out win over their bitter rival, The Montreal Canadiens, the Canadiens and other Bruins players put their rivalry aside and carried the three men off the ice in celebration of their heroics.
