Bruins Play Keeps Them in Position to Succeed
December 23rd, 2015 The score is the first thing you notice. 2-0, St. Louis. Then, you remember the pregame narrative. With a win and a Montreal Canadiens loss on Tuesday night, the Boston Bruins would have been in sole possession of first place in the Atlantic Division. Now, the story. The Bruins played well—quite well, in fact, against an...
Another Rask Shutout Saves the Bruins
December 17th, 2015 Tuukka Rask probably wants to forget about what his stat line looked like at the start of the season. In his first five games, Rask was 1-3-1 with a .834 save percentage. He allowed 22 goals, too. Things look different now. Rask's last regulation loss came on November 17—one month ago—against the San Jose Sharks. Since then, he's...
Is Peter Chiarelli Better Off in Edmonton?
December 15th, 2015 Peter Chiarelli watched Monday's Bruins game in almost the exact same spot that he has for the last nine years. It was his first game at the TD Garden this season. There was little fanfare. Okay, there was no fanfare. If you were at the game, there wasn't a mention of anything Chiarelli accomplished in his time with the Bruins. If you...
Is the Bruins-Canadiens Rivalry Still Relevant?
December 10th, 2015 "Epix is here." That was the text I got on Monday morning from a fellow writer covering the Bruins' morning skate. For the next month, every practice, game, and scheduled off-ice appearance would likely be accompanied by camera crews and boom mics that document the Bruins almost every move up until the 2016 Winter Classic. They'll...
Bruins Taking Advantage of Opportunities in Wins
November 28th, 2015 If the Bruins are going to be successful this season, they're going to have to come up big when it matters most. Take Friday's game against the New York Rangers, for example. Down a goal with five minutes left and going on the power play, the Bruins needed to deliver. They did. And then, they did again. The Bruins' season-high,...
Will the Bruins Sign Torey Krug to a Long Term Deal?
November 23rd, 2015 Torey Krug is playing more minutes. In 19 games, Krug has seen his time on ice jump from last season's two-month average of 20:11 to 22:05. He already surpassed the 25-minute mark in one game, recording 26:06 of ice time against the Dallas Stars in the Boston Bruins' 11th game of the season. That didn't happen at all last year. It...
