Chara to the Maple Leafs Rumor Is a Non-Starter

Chara to the Maple Leafs Rumor Is a Non-Starter

November 22nd, 2020 Here’s saying that, as much as Zdeno Chara interests me as a player and a person, I believe the Toronto Maple Leafs are simply unlikely to sign the tall, aging polyglot (he speaks seven different languages fluently). It simply isn’t going to happen. Why Zdeno Chara Interests Me There isn’t a lot about the big guy that...

August 28th, 2020 Boston Bruins head coach Bruce Cassidy and general manager Don Sweeney sent a clear message in late January.

Bruins' 2020 Playoffs: Healthy Players, Roster Decisions & Revenge

July 11th, 2020 On March 10, Boston Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask celebrated his 33rd birthday by leading the team to a 2-0 shutout of the upstart Philadelphia Flyers.

Bruins Face Balancing Act in Round-Robin Tournament

Bruins Face Balancing Act in Round-Robin Tournament

June 25th, 2020 The Boston Bruins do not have to play their way into the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs, if they happen, because the team's regular season record left it atop the National Hockey League's standings. However, the round-robin tournament that would decide the top four seeds in each conference could cost Boston that position. The question is,...

Bruins' Stanley Cup Quest More Difficult With Proposed Playoffs

May 24th, 2020 Ongoing discussions about how to finish the 2019-20 NHL season appear to be making progress this week with various reports that the NHL and NHL Players' Association (NHLPA) are devising an unprecedented 24-team playoff format.

Bruins Reaping Benefits of Internal Competition

Bruins Reaping Benefits of Internal Competition

February 11th, 2020 On Dec. 30, Boston Bruins forward Jake DeBrusk was noticeably absent from a large part of the first period of a game against the Buffalo Sabres. When he returned to the ice in the next period, he proceeded to score two goals in less than 20 seconds and helped the team to a 3-2 victory. After the game, it was revealed that it had been...
Are the Big Bad Bruins Back?

Are the Big Bad Bruins Back?

February 3rd, 2020 Are we seeing the return of the Big Bad Boston Bruins? It was only one game, but that one game showed signs of the Bruins' physical, bruising and fighting style of the 1970s and 1980s when they were the toast of the town. After showing no sign of being the physical and intimidating Bruins they used to be through the first 51 games of...
Bruins' DeBrusk Hitting Much-Needed Hot Streak

Bruins' DeBrusk Hitting Much-Needed Hot Streak

January 15th, 2020 A little over a week ago, I wrote about a problem the Boston Bruins have been facing: secondary scoring. The lack of scoring behind the Bruins' top line isn't a new issue, but rather one that the team has been aware of (but have been fortunate enough to overlook) for quite some time. It seems that Jake DeBrusk was listening. The...

Bruins Need Kuraly to Step Up

January 14th, 2020 It all began on April 21, 2017. That was the date then-Boston Bruins head coach Claude Julien elected to start a relatively unknown young prospect in Game 5 of the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs in place of a struggling Ryan Spooner. Sean Kuraly found himself on the playoff roster that season because of a spate of injuries....

Bruins' Keys to Success in 2020

January 4th, 2020 Although they fell just short of the ultimate goal, 2019 was a pretty good year for the Boston Bruins. The team also started off the 2019-20 season with a bang but has faltered of late. Despite the December skid, the Bruins sit well atop the Atlantic Division standings, and halfway through the season look poised for another playoff...
