Golden Knights Bandwagon Easy to Hop On
May 16th, 2018 As Jonathan Marchessault left a foul-tasting impression on the hockey diehards in Winnipeg, Manitoba on Monday night, he may have given a thrill to casual hockey fans, or the fans whose teams are out of the playoffs, like me. Marchessault scored twice in the second game of the Western Conference Final, leading the Vegas Golden Knights...
Bruins Fans: The Future Looks Bright
May 8th, 2018 Well, it couldn't have been a more disappointing end to the year for the Boston Bruins. This team had a wildly successful season under head coach Bruce Cassidy, who completed his first full campaign as head coach, accumulating a record of 50-20-12 for 112 total points.

Bruins & Maple Leafs: Biggest Moments of Game 7
April 26th, 2018 Another wild Game 7 is officially in the NHL history books, and it was another victory for the Boston Bruins over the Toronto Maple Leafs. It's only fitting that a strange, wacky, confusing series ends with a roller coaster seventh game. Well done, National Hockey League. This is why we love you. Even though the final score read 7-4...
Game 7: Most Thrilling Experience in Sports
April 25th, 2018 In a few hours, either the Boston Bruins or the Toronto Maple Leafs will be playing their final hockey game of the 2017-18 NHL season. For 60 minutes (or maybe more, depending on if the game goes to overtime), these two Original Six rivals will take the ice at the Boston Garden, put everything else out of their minds, and focus on the...
