By ⋅ February 3, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

The Bruins (29-15-7) return home to icy, slushy Boston tonight to host the Pacific Division leading Dallas Stars (30-16-5) at TD Garden. These two teams are in very similar positions in their respective conference standings right now.

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 [...]

By ⋅ January 3, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

Wrapping up their season-high five-game road trip, the Bruins (20-11-6) travel north of the border to take on Phil Kessel and the Toronto Maple Leafs (14-19-4) this evening at the Air Canada Centre. You’d think scoring six goals would be enough for a win… and more often than not, you’d be correct. But that wasn’t [...]

Bruins Drop Wild One in Shootout

By ⋅ January 1, 2011 ⋅ 4 comments

In a game that went back and forth more than Hamlet deciding whether or not to be, the Buffalo Sabres emerged with a 7-6, shootout win. In a battle of futility between some of the (supposedly) best goaltenders in the NHL, nobody could play defense very well, or at all. Andrew Ference started the scoring [...]

The Bruins (17-10-4) find themselves in the eighth spot in the Eastern Conference right now. Tonight, they’ll face off with the West’s current eighth seed, the Anaheim Ducks (17-15-4) at TD Garden.

The Bruins (16-9-4) will get a second chance to climb to a tie atop the Northeast Division this evening, when they take on the hated Montreal Canadiens (18-11-2) at the Bell Centre, north of the border. Boston found themselves just two points behind the Habs in the standings heading into last night’s action, but the [...]

Bruins Hold Off Late Rangers’ Push For the Win

By ⋅ November 18, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

On Wednesday, the New York Rangers struck first, but it was Boston who laughed last in a 3-2 victory in Madison Square Garden. The Bruins scored three goals in between New York’s scores, in a relatively tame game penalty-wise, to give Tim Thomas yet another win, this time over Henrik Lundqvist. Neither team did much [...]

Bruins 2010-2011 Preview: Forwards

By ⋅ October 11, 2010 ⋅ One comment

When it comes to what will fuel the Bruins this season, look no further than the forwards. Regarded as one of the worst offensive teams in the league last year, the Bruins hope to find their way back into the elite group of offensive teams in the NHL. Two years ago, the Bruins had one [...]

Bruins Training Camp: What to Watch For, Part 2

By ⋅ September 16, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

On Wednesday, we showed the first four things to watch for as the Bruins open camp. While the way the 2009-2010 Bruins season ended really stung, we are turning the page to a new era of Boston Bruins hockey. One way to get that started is with new talent, like Nathan Horton and Gregory Campbell. [...]

Bruins Training Camp: What to Watch For, Part 1

By ⋅ September 15, 2010 ⋅ One comment

Is it too soon to talk about the Bruins yet, or is the sting of last spring’s playoff collapse still too painful to overcome? Personally, as tough as it may be to do, I say we turn the page to the next chapter: the 2010-11 NHL season. The B’s are off and running this month [...]

Hockey’s hot stove season has heated up and nowhere is it hotter than here in the Hub of Hockey.

Late Goal By Lucic Gives Bruins 2-0 Series Lead

By ⋅ May 4, 2010 ⋅ One comment

You can’t help but acknowledge the irony. Amidst the celebration at TD Garden on Monday night, as the Boston Bruins took a commanding 2-0 lead in their best-of-seven semifinal series against the Philadelphia Flyers, The Standells’ “Love That Dirty Water” was blaring across the arena just like it would after any Bruins victory. But it [...]

While there was plenty to cheer about during Saturday’s 5-4 overtime victory over the Philadelphia Flyers, in which the returning Marc Savard scored the game-winning goal, the Boston Bruins announced the end of Marco Sturm’s season on Sunday. Sturm went down in the opening minute of the playoff series after checking Flyer Matt Carle and [...]

Bruins Clinch Playoff Spot With Odd Win Over Hurricanes

By ⋅ April 10, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

The Bruins have a lot of trouble scoring goals on the power play, and it gets even worse at even strength.

When Matt Hunwick headed back to the penalty box to start the second period, he told teammates to kill the [...]
