Bergeron Gets Game-Winner, Bruins Lead Series 2-1

By ⋅ April 20, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Rub your eyes again. The sixth-seeded Boston Bruins are now two wins away from advancing to the second round. Something that seemed so improbable just weeks ago is now a reality. The Bruins are a good team…well at least they’re playing like it. In his 45,090,000th playoff game (well, really 154th), Mark Recchi did his [...]

The Bruins found themselves down 2-0 in the first period with the Sabres continuing to press the issue in front of Tuukka Rask. On the other side of the ice stood Olympic hero Ryan Miller, one of the top men between the pipes in the NHL. Down 1-0 in the series, the Bruins were in [...]

By ⋅ April 17, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

The Bruins will look to even the series before heading home to Boston this afternoon, as they aim to earn themselves a Game 2 victory over the Buffalo Sabres at HSBC Arena in a Saturday matinee skate. The B’s had plenty of chances to get ahead of Buffalo in the series in Thursday’s 2-1 loss [...]

By ⋅ April 16, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

It’s still anyone’s series, but the Bruins missed out on a golden opportunity to take an early series lead Thursday night in Buffalo. Instead, Olympic hero Ryan Miller stopped all but one of Boston’s 39 shots on the night, including 24 shots in the second period alone, en route to a 2-1 win in Game [...]

Ice Breakers: Bruins-Sabres, Game 1

By ⋅ April 15, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

We weren’t sure whether or not the Boston area would get to enjoy playoff hockey this spring, but after a healthy winning streak to round out the regular season, not only are the Bruins (39-30-13, 91 points) in the playoffs, they got themselves up into the sixth seed in the East. Now, instead of having [...]

Boston Bruins-Buffalo Sabres Playoff Preview

By ⋅ April 15, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

After a full 82 games composed of highs & lows, injuries & late additions, and joy & (mostly) anger, the Boston Bruins managed to do what some felt was impossible at some points during the season: make the playoffs. Despite scoring the second-fewest goals in the entire league (206 to squeeze by the Calgary Flames’ [...]

It’s almost playoff time, and two of our experts have ranked the end-of-season Power Rankings, along with choices for the biggest playoff upset.

Bruins Help Themselves in Playoff Push, Beat Sabres 3-1

By ⋅ April 9, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Needing a win to help its playoff chances, the Boston Bruins hosted the Buffalo Sabres Thursday night. The Sabres gave the B’s a gift before the game even started, as they sat their All-Star and Olympian goalie Ryan Miller. Miller is 40-18-8 on the season so it’s a good thing that he wasn’t playing. Instead, [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NHL Week 25

By ⋅ April 7, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Can you believe the season ends this Sunday, and you won’t see this article again until October? Can you believe the Capital have clinched the President’s Trophy, and when they did so, only one other team had even clinched a division? After Tuesday, the West is all wrapped up in terms of the elite eight, [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NHL Week 24

By ⋅ March 31, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

There’s less than two weeks left in the schedule, and we’re all getting super excited with the playoff picture starting to shape up. But still, there’s plenty that could change in a whim. Even with the Capitals clinching the East (and with two wins and six points over San Jose) and the magic number for [...]

Olympians Miller and Thomas Duel, Sabres Prevail 3-2

By ⋅ March 30, 2010 ⋅ One comment

I say that Sabres goalie Ryan Miller and Bruins goalie Tim Thomas dueled on Monday night at the TD Garden, but a more accurate statement would be to say that Miller dueled with an unusually energetic Bruins offense. The U.S. Olympian goaltender stopped 40 of 42 shots to lead the Sabres to the 3-2 win. [...]

The Bruins (34-28-12) will look to build on Saturday’s stomping of the Flames tonight when they finish up their brief three-game homestand against Northeast Division leaders, the Buffalo Sabres (41-23-10). Boston has actually had a good level of success against the Sabres this season, winning three of the four previous meetings. The B’s, still with [...]

By ⋅ March 24, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

With about 10 games and less than three weeks left on the schedule, it’s getting desperate for many teams. There have been several surprises this season, especially the Coyotes, who were even in second place in the West Monday, tied with Chicago with 97 points. The Devils and Penguins are fighting over their division, while [...]

If The Playoffs Started Today – NHL Week 22

By ⋅ March 17, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

We’re rapidly approaching the end of the season, with less than 15 games left now. And the race is still on. Boston has a three-point cushion and a game in hand over the Rangers for the last spot in the East, Detroit just has three points over Calgary out West, and thanks to an embarrassing [...]
