Playoff hockey is near, and the Boston Bruins are positioning themselves to make a run in the Eastern Conference, as evidenced by their excellent play since the beginning of the new year. The field is difficult, but the Bruins have a chance to play in another Stanley Cup Final. There is a lot to be […]
The Boston Bruins failed to advance past the first round of the NHL playoffs for the first time in five seasons. An eventful season included a slow start, COVID protocol for all but one player, and an unbalanced schedule. Factor in two Brad Marchand suspensions and numerous injuries, and you have a trying season that […]
The Boston Bruins won 65 games during the 2022-23 regular season, a National Hockey League record. The roster was bolstered by the trade deadline e acquisitions of Garnet Hathaway, Dmitry Orlov, and Tyler Bertuzzi, and all signs pointed to a deep playoff run. However, nobody could have predicted this type of ending to a season […]
When the Boston Bruins host the St. Louis Blues at TD Garden in Boston, it will be the first time since October 26, 2019. On that night, Boston got a very small taste of revenge for their Stanley Cup Finals loss to the Blues with a 3-0 win. Almost a year later, the Bruins would […]
The Penguins played their last game of the season against the New York Islanders on Wednesday, April 17th at the UBS Arena. This had not only been their last game of the season, but it had also been Jeff Carter’s final NHL career game, who’s retiring. Carter scored a huge goal for the Penguins in […]

The right side is occupied by Charlie McAvoy, Brandon Carlo, and at times Connor […]
Well, the weekend has officially come and gone. It was an exciting one for the entire New Jersey Devils organization, from top to bottom for all three leagues, including their fan base from casual to the hardcore, as New Jersey wrapped up their prospect camp earlier this morning, playing their final game in the Prospect […]
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 […]
Since taking over as Bruins GM in 2015, Don Sweeney hasn’t been someone who has been willing to make roster-altering trades in the middle of a season. Now, you may say, “Sweeney has gone out and added plenty of players at the deadline!” that is not what I’m referring to. Outside of his first few […]
As the Boston Bruins prepared for last Saturday’s game in Ottawa, head coach Bruce Cassidy had some choice words while describing what he needed from his team. “We have a lot of nice guys on our team. We need to be more like pricks, to be honest with you.” That was Cassidy’s assessment of his […]
