July 4th, 2013 On June 25, 2010 many in Boston believed the Bruins had selected a future superstar, a savior in the eyes of some, when they drafted Tyler Seguin second overall in the NHL Entry Draft.

Stanley Cup: Boston Escapes Chicago With Series Tied

June 16th, 2013 By Wayne Whittaker, Boston Bruins Correspondent It's often said that visiting teams must "weather the storm" for the first 10 minutes of a hockey game.

What Happens if Boston Loses Game 7?

May 13th, 2013 By Wayne Whittaker, Boston Bruins Correspondent Since the clock struck 0:00 on June 15, 2011 in Vancouver, the Boston Bruins roster has been more or less cemented. The core group of players have remained in their familiar depth chart slots, with Boston management apparently believing "they have won before, they will win...

Trade Deadline 2013: Should Bruins Fans Expect A Blockbuster?

March 25th, 2013 By Wayne Whittaker, Boston Bruins Correspondent With names like Jarome Iginla, Martin St. Louis and Jaromir Jagr being casually tossed into conversation around Boston, it can be easy to get swept up in the hype of the upcoming trade deadline.
