Boston is off to a flying 2-0 start, and by the lineup they've wielded 
this week they clearly intend for that trend to continue. With two GMs
playing this match, both of whom have performed very well in the league so far, 
they are going to be a very tough team to beat. Perelshteyn becomes
the highest rated player to ever play Board 2, by close to 100 points.
New York on the other hand might be reeling a bit from the 3.5-0.5 hammering
they took from their old nememsis Baltimore in the previous week.  

	What does all this mean for this match? Well perhaps nothing.  It would be 
hard to deny Boston will likely be at an advantage on the top two 
boards since they have White on the top board and the rather large rating 
advantage they have on the second.  However, we can't forget GM 
Charbonneau's performance in virtually the same situation last year, 
and US Junior Champion, Robert Hess surely has it within him to give 
GM Perelshteyn more than just a good fight.  

 	New York will need some good production out of the lower two boards
if they want any chance at taking this match, and I do feel they have a bit 
of an edge on both those boards. I tend to pick in favor of the younger players 
when in doubt so I'm inclined to give NM Molner the nod despite having the black pieces. 
However, NM Martirosov was rather impressive in his first game knocking 
off a much higher rated opponent so clearly he'll come ready to play. 
What does this mean overall?  Since I'm too cowardly to try to make 
sense of all these assumptions/theories I've made here, I'll just go with 
this finishing a level 2-2.
