By ⋅ March 25, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

The Boston Bruins have been without the services of Rich Peverley since February 17.

If the Playoffs Started Today – NHL Week 24

By ⋅ March 22, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

It’s almost time for the playoffs to begin. There’s certainly no shortage of close contests, and nobody’s giving way easily at all. And this far along, only the top team in each conference has so much as clinched a playoff spot. The action the rest of the way is sure to be cutthroat, so let’s [...]

By ⋅ March 20, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

What we learned the week of 3/12 -3/19 1. The Broncos signed Peyton Manning and will trade Tim Tebow. One guy is much younger, healthier, cheaper, had a better season last year, and has already led Denver to the division title. The other guy takes up a huge amount of salary cap room, is coming [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NHL Week 23

By ⋅ March 15, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

Only a few weeks remain in the season, and there’s barely more than 10 games left per team. Both conferences have now opened up at #1, but it’s still a race for all fringe teams involved. Half the divisions are still very much in play as well, so there’s a lot to fight for still. [...]

By Blaming Dim Lights at MSG, Tim Thomas Just Made Excuses… Again

By ⋅ March 14, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

Yes, Tim, the lights at Madison Square Garden are different than in any other arena in the NHL.  Yes, Tim, the reason Henrik Lundqvist was able to thwart the Bruins offensive attack may have been because he’s played at MSG all season and has gotten used to this unfavorable lighting. But no, Tim, the lighting [...]

Penguins Handle and Hurt Bruins 5-2

By ⋅ March 11, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

The Bruins once again started the game slow getting down three goals in the first period. Tim Thomas didn’t look sharp again playing in back to back days. Marty Turco made his Bruins debut in relief of Thomas and played well considering the situation. Injuries continue to hurt the Bruins, Adam McQuaid, Max Sauve, and [...]

By ⋅ March 11, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

What We Learned This Week Week of March 3 – March 10   Peyton Manning Got Cut From a 2-14 Team What a scrub! I hope the poor guy can somehow catch on with another team. It will be strange to see Peyton Manning in another uniform (or another helmet) but Johnny Unitas with the [...]

Bruins Comeback Falls Short, Lose 4-3 to Washington

By ⋅ March 10, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

This Is The First Line We Have Been Waiting For

By ⋅ March 10, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

Claude Julien is not known for line shuffling, most nights everyone knows what the lines will look like before the puck drops. On March 1st we saw a change that might not change again for a really long time. Instant Production Both Tyler Seguin and David Krejci weren’t on top of their games for the [...]

Two-Goal Third Gives Bruins First Winning Streak Since January

By ⋅ March 8, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

The Boston Bruins have rarely played “complete” hockey over the last two months, alternating losses with frustrating, indecisive victories. And on those few occasions when they submitted a complete game, they never followed it with a second. No more. The Bruins capitalized on two goals in the final period Thursday night at TD Garden, beating [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NHL Week 22

By ⋅ March 8, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

Another week down and the standings aren’t much closer. Both #3 seeds are benefiting from being a division leader, and those on the outside looking in don’t have far to go. Only the Canucks and Rangers can rest easy as far as division leads go; that’s about the only thing that’s safe right now. With [...]
