Sabres Crush Both Rask and Thomas in Buffalo

By ⋅ February 9, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

The Buffalo Sabres played Wednesday’s game as a team desperately needing wins to keep its playoff hopes alive should: intelligent but physical, controlled but aggressive. The Boston Bruins played as a team with a chance at the Eastern Conference’s top spot should not: lazy, disorganized, brainless. Who do you think won? The Sabres scored twice [...]

The Bruins have had a terrific season thus far, entering Saturday afternoon’s matinee with the Pittsburgh Penguins only three points out of first place in the Eastern Conference.

What We Learned This Week: Tim ‘Tea Party’ Thomas; Pats ‘Moore’ Sterling Than Ravens

By ⋅ January 28, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

What we learned the week of January 20-27: 1. Tim Thomas hates the federal government. Not sure why anyone finds this surprising– he sounds just like every other middle-aged, multimillionaire white guy in the country. 2. Most Patriots fans suddenly discovered that there was a guy named Sterling Moore playing for their team. Now that [...]

Tim Thomas was first off the ice at practice Tuesday, which usually indicates he would start in net that night. He did not.

Bruins’ Fourth Line Carries Team Past Devils

By ⋅ January 19, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

Good things come to those who wait. The Boston Bruins waited five games to get back Brad Marchand. They waited two games to get back Rich Peverley. And they waited 63 minutes Thursday night before finally solving the New Jersey Devils’ stout defense and even more stout goalie, Martin Brodeur. Once the waiting period ended, [...]

By ⋅ January 17, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

The Bruins (29-13-1) were looking to follow up their shootout win on Monday night as they visited the slumping Lightning.

Bruins Get Lucky, Hold Off Canadiens For 2-1 Win

By ⋅ January 13, 2012 ⋅ Post a comment

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 [...]
