Shortly after the Carolina Hurricanes closed a deal with former Boston Bruins’ defenseman Tomas Kaberle for 3 years/$12.75 million, the Bruins acquired the Hurricanes’ defesneman Joe Corvo in a trade, sending Carolina a 2012 fourth round pick. Corvo comes to Boston after having a career year with the ‘Canes, playing in all 82 games for the [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NHL Week 21

By ⋅ March 2, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

No more than 20 games remain for any team, so we’re in the final quartile of the season now. And this late, the top story continues to be the logjam out West between #4 and #11, if not further down. Even one more victory by the Predators (#9) would vault them up to #5. But [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NHL Week 20

20 weeks done, almost 20 games left, and Philadelphia is still running away with the East. Vancouver is closer in the West to Detroit, but still has a comfortable lead, but is in danger of falling behind Philadelphia. The Dallas Stars, not too long ago atop the Pacific Division, are now in last place in [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NHL Week 19

By ⋅ February 16, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

The top two seeds in each conference (and Pittsburgh) are pretty safely nestled into their positions, but everything else is up for grabs, with one win being able to do pretty much anything. To that point, four Pacific teams are currently in the brackets, and the last is just a win away. We should all [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NHL Week 18

By ⋅ February 9, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

With just two months left in the season, very little is known, or even in a good position, regarding which teams will end up where. The defending champs are in the #11 spot, and the once solid East bracket has now been tapped by a new team. And the Devils are now #13 in the [...]

Bruins Hold Off Canes 3-2

By ⋅ February 2, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

Here in New England, we’re used to handling blizzards and “hurricanes.” For the Boston Bruins, they were able to score a pair of goals in the third period and weathered the storm the Carolina Hurricanes brought to the ice for the 3-2 victory. Daniel Paille scored his first goal of the season to put the [...]

With the All Star hoopla behind them, the Boston Bruins (28-15-7) will travel south to meet up with All Stars Tim Thomas and Zdeno Chara in Raleigh, as they prepare to face All Stars Eric Staal, Cam Ward, Jeff Skinner, and the rest of the Carolina Hurricanes (25-19-6) this evening.

Bruins Sweep Home-And-Home With Hurricanes

By ⋅ January 19, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

After the Bruins beat down the Hurricanes 7-0 on Monday night, the first in the home-and-home series, you had to wonder how Carolina would respond Tuesday night. As you might imagine, the Bruins didn’t score seven goals again, but they scored enough in a 3-2 victory. Tim Thomas was outstanding in net, especially in the [...]

Ice Breakers: Bruins-Hurricanes, Tuesday January 18th

By ⋅ January 18, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

The Bruins (25-13-7) hit the road this evening, heading south to Raleigh to take on a familiar foe, the Carolina Hurricanes (22-17-6). It was just over 24 hours ago that the B’s beat down the ‘Canes at TD Garden, wrapping up a four-game homestand with a 7-0 trouncing of Carolina. There were all sorts of [...]

Zdeno Chara Hat Trick Powers Bruins Past Hurricanes 7-0

By ⋅ January 18, 2011 ⋅ One comment

Entering Monday’s matinee contest against the Hurricanes, just three Bruins defensemen have ever scored a hat trick in a game. Now, we can add Zdeno Chara’s name to that list. Chara scored three goals, joining Bobby Orr (who had a ridiculous nine career hat tricks), Ray Bourque, and Glen Wesley. “That’s pretty special company,” Chara [...]

Carolina Power Play Shuts Out Bruins

By ⋅ November 26, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Despite having the NHL’s best penalty kill, the Bruins allowed three power play goals to the lowly Carolina Hurricanes in a 3-0 home loss. Boston actually kept up a pretty good attack, but the Hurricanes patiently waited for chances to break away, which they capitalized on. Early on, Boston had many good chances, but Cam [...]

Ice Breakers: Bruins-Hurricanes, Friday November 26th

By ⋅ November 26, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

The Bruins (12-6-2) return home after a brief two-game jaunt through the Sunshine State to host the Carolina Hurricanes (9-12-2) at the TD Garden for a matinee game on Causeway Street. Boston rebounded from a very rough game in Tampa Monday with a come-from-behind effort Wednesday against the Panthers that earned them a 3-1 victory, [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NHL Week 5

By ⋅ November 11, 2010 ⋅ 2 comments

Tim Thomas has gone downhill fast, but so have the Penguins. With three games in hand, Boston can take the division if those games in hands are wins, and they keep pace with Washington otherwise. Or with just three points from those games, Boston can displace Montreal. Either way, they’ve got plenty of room to [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NHL Week 2

By ⋅ October 21, 2010 ⋅ 2 comments

Another week in, and the Maple Leafs are going strong. The Blackhawks are back on top out West, though their three closest competitors all have three games in hand, down by three points. That’s 333, which when doubled, means the Devils are currently in last place in the entire NHL. They’re followed by Ottawa and [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NHL Week 1

By ⋅ October 14, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Isn’t the first week great? It’s the only time of a year that we get to see things like the Maple Leafs as the best team in the league. And it’s the one time of the year when Marty Brodeur is still working out the kinks, and the Bruins, just like the rest of the [...]
