Can Johnny Beecher Take The Next Step?

Don Sweeney has his fair share of critics regarding his drafting in recent years. Players like Vaakanainen, Senyshyn, and Studnicka haven’t lived up to their expectations, and most blame must be put on Sweeney’s shoulders. People have started to doubt that Beecher will become anything mainly due to his low point totals, which is a […]

Why The Bruins Should Target Claude Giroux

There are a lot of unknowns when it comes to the Bruins this offseason. The two biggest question marks are Bergeron’s future and the possibility of a Krejci return. As of right now, it seems as though Patrice will be returning for his 19th NHL season, but until it’s officially announced, I am not holding […]

Opinion: Should The Bruins Take A Step Back This Year?

The Bruins are in an interesting spot right now. With Bergeron coming back for another year, it’s given hope to fans that the B’s window still might be open. Despite some optimism, we have to start looking toward the future. Pasta doesn’t have a contract past this season, Marchand is creeping into his mid-30s, and […]

Bruins Prospect Profile: Mason Lohrei

The Bruins are looking down the barrel of a rebuild that may start as early as this season. Their foundation is solid, and they already have three young stars that will hopefully fast-track them to being a contender again. Other rebuilding/retooling franchises aren’t lucky enough to start with a Pastrnak, McAvoy, and Swayman. Poor drafting […]

If it had to happen, what would a Pastrnak trade look like?

Before you leave me an angry comment, no, I don’t think the Bruins actively want to trade Pastrnak. Over the past few weeks, it’s starting to look like the Bruins rebuild will begin as early as this coming season. With McAvoy, Gryzelcyk, Marchand, and Mike Reilly all having serious surgeries, it looks like the first […]

Bruins: Patrice Bergeron’s Future

There hasn’t been a more beloved player in Boston sports history than Patrice Bergeron. His devotion to the team and community has endeared himself to all B’s fans, and he has cemented himself as one of the greatest Bruins ever. He is on the back nine of his career but hasn’t fallen off production-wise despite […]

Bruins: The Drafting Inconsistency

Coming out of the 2021 draft, it looks like the B’s may have gotten the steal of the first round in Fabian Lysell, a speedy winger playing for Vancouver in the WHL. However, for every Brandon Carlo and David Pastrnak, there is a Malcolm Subban and a Seth Griffith. The Bruin’s prospect development and drafting […]

The Next Wave of Bruins

For the past five seasons, the Bruins’ prospect pool has been in the bottom 5 of the league as they continue to pursue a top seed in the Atlantic. Most Writers and fans agree that the B’s have done a poor job at drafting in recent years, exemplified by the 2015 debacle. Players like Studnicka, […]
