Tim Thomas released a statement on his Facebook page why he skipped Monday’s event at the White House as President Obama honored the Stanley Cup Champion Boston Bruins. “I believe the Federal government has grown out of control, threatening the Rights, Liberties, and Property of the People. This is being done at the Executive, Legislative, [...]
Now that his suspension is drawing to a close soon, Brad Marchand has left Twitter just as quickly as he joined it. Hat tip to Days of Y’Orr for capturing a screenshot of Marchand’s final Tweet (for now): Yep, because he’s a bawss.
For the first time, a Boston sports team will be visiting the White House during the Obama administration. All three Patriots champs, the two Red Sox champs, and the ’08 Celtics all visited the White House during George W. Bush’s eight years in office. Now, the Stanley Cup Champion Boston Bruins will be honored by [...]
Brad Marchand is still serving his five-game suspension, so he has some time on his hands. The B’s winger took time to set up his Twitter account. Follow him: @Bmarch63
For the first time in recent memory, the Bruins and Canadiens played a meaningless game. Why? Well, simply put, the Canadiens suck this season. Montreal is 12th in the Eastern Conference and has a losing record. They entered the game 16 (!!!) points behind the Bruins in the East. Things are so bad, they traded [...]
“I can’t accept that we will display a losing attitude as we’re doing this year…We prepare for our games like losers. We play like losers. So it’s no wonder why we lose.” With those words earlier in the week, Michael Cammalleri really sealed his fate. After playing the first two periods of Thursday night’s game [...]
One of the best teams in the NHL, the Bruins, will be well-represented at the NHL All-Star Game in February. Joining goalie Tim Thomas, who is set to start in net, will be forward Tyler Seguin and defenseman Zdeno Chara. In just his second season, Seguin leads the B’s with 17 goals and 38 points [...]
House before Brad Marchand was actually suspended for his hit on Sami Salo, “The Province” inadvertently published an article about Marchand’s XXX-game suspension. Say what?
Bruins winger Brad Marchand was suspended for five games by the NHL on Monday for his low hit on Vancover’s Sami Salo during Saturday afternoon’s Stanley Cup rematch. “As the video shows, Marchand skates towards Salo along the boards,” Shanahan said in a video posted on the league’s website. “Rather than deliver a shoulder-to-shoulder check, [...]
The best goaltender in the NHL is heading to the 2012 All-Star Game, as expected. Tim Thomas dominated his competition in the goalie voting, finishing with 128,000 more than James Reimer of the Maple Leafs who finished second. His election to the game in Ottawa comes through the initial fan voting. In the coming weeks, [...]
The Bruins have been so good this season, they lead the NHL in goals per game (3.43), goals allowed per game (1.91), and goal differential (+60). Simply put, they are the best team in the NHL. That’s why their 4-2 loss last Saturday against the Stars was so surprising, though it is impossible (except in [...]
Brad Marchand had a hat trick in Friday night’s 8-0 win, but Benoit Pouliot of all people stole the show. The first-year Bruin created his own breakway in the first period, streaking down the ice before cutting in front of the net, guiding the puck between his legs and burying it inside the right post. [...]
Since starting the season 3-7, the Bruins can’t really find a way to lose. They entered Friday night’s clash with the Panthers as winners of 19 of their last 22 games, including one memorable blemish: a 2-0 loss to Florida back on Dec. 8. You have to imagine that despite the recent success, the Bruins must [...]
“Hey wait… was that Timmy T on the T??” Yep. Bruins goalie Tim Thomas wore his full pads and uniform in an ad for Arbella Insurance on Wednesday. He originally signed an endorsement deal in November to become the first athlete to represent the company.
The Bruins (22-9-1) came into action on Monday night as hot as ever after a dominating 6-0 win last time out in Philadelphia. They turned their attention to their longtime rivals, the Montreal Canadiens (13-14-7)who have had a rough season and were in need of a change. That came in the form of the firing [...]
