Bruins' Third Line Needs Improvement

Bruins' Third Line Needs Improvement

October 26th, 2016 The Boston Bruins have had a decent start to the season, despite fighting off an injury bug that has kept them below 100% for every game thus far. A couple of B's who were poised for breakout seasons (Brad Marchand and David Pastrnak, in particular), have gotten off to hot starts out of the gate and will look to build on that success as...
2016-17 Fantasy Season Outlook: Boston Bruins

2016-17 Fantasy Season Outlook: Boston Bruins

August 25th, 2016 The 2015-16 Boston Bruins came much closer to the postseason than many in the hockey world gave them credit for. With a 42-31-9 record, they finished with 93 points and just three points shy of the second wild card spot in the Eastern Conference. This season will be much of the same for the Bruins who will have to bite and claw their...
Matt Beleskey Lets Jimmy Vesey Know He Made a 'Bad Decision'

Matt Beleskey Lets Jimmy Vesey Know He Made a 'Bad Decision'

August 20th, 2016 The Boston Bruins and New York Rangers rivalry had a little fuel tossed into the flames Friday. After college free agent Jimmy Vesey signed with the New York Rangers, spurning his hometown Bruins, Boston forward Matt Beleskey let Vesey know he didn't think much of his...
Where Matt Beleskey Fits on the Bruins

Where Matt Beleskey Fits on the Bruins

August 9th, 2016 When July 1st hit last summer, the Boston Bruins went out and signed free agent forward, Matt Beleskey, to a five-year $19 million deal. The signing ended up being their biggest move of the summer, with high expectations considering the money and term that Beleskey pulled in. Beleskey had just come off of a career year in Anaheim,...
Will Backes and Beleskey Be Boston's Bash Bros?

Will Backes and Beleskey Be Boston's Bash Bros?

July 7th, 2016 The Boston Bruins made big news on July 1st when they inked former St. Louis Blues captain David Backes to a five-year, $30 million contract. He's exactly the type of player that Don Sweeney and company have been looking for to bring a bit more hard-nosed hockey to Boston. http://gty.im/503524868 The Backes signing comes one year...
Bruins & Free Agency: Sweeney's Smart Shopping

Bruins & Free Agency: Sweeney's Smart Shopping

July 3rd, 2016 Boston Bruins GM Don Sweeney is now in his second offseason, and his second July 1st ‘free agency frenzy’ has now come and gone. Both last year and this year he has made big name and big contract signings on the first day of free agency. Last year it was left winger Matt Beleskey and this year it was center, and former St. Louis...
Could the Bruins Win the East?

Could the Bruins Win the East?

March 12th, 2016 With 70 games down, the real Boston Bruins are starting to show up. I think. That's an assumption-based statement if you haven't already guessed. Still, it's impressive that a team that many predicted to fall right outside the playoff picture, or stumble in, is holding onto first place in the Atlantic Division with 12 games to...
Who's Better: Bruins' Matt Beleskey or Kings' Milan Lucic?

Who's Better: Bruins' Matt Beleskey or Kings' Milan Lucic?

January 11th, 2016 As many of you know, this past summer was a rather interesting one for fans of the Boston Bruins. https://twitter.com/MilanLucicCFC17/status/614580631176114176 General manager Don Sweeney parted ways with winger Milan Lucic, sending him to the Los Angeles Kings for the 13th overall pick (Jakub Zboril), defenseman Colin Miller and...
Canadiens Tilt Ice in Winter Classic Win

Canadiens Tilt Ice in Winter Classic Win

January 2nd, 2016 Dan Craig would probably tell you the ice in the Winter Classic was fine. The conditions were optimal, the temperature was ideal, but if you were looking for anything resembling a close contest between two of the NHL's most storied franchises, you were disappointed. This wasn't a close game. In fact, the only time the Winter Classic...
Bruins' Matt Beleskey Struggling to Find Offensive Spark

Bruins' Matt Beleskey Struggling to Find Offensive Spark

December 24th, 2015 So far in this young season, the Bruins have seen an offensive spark from unfamiliar faces. Frank Vatrano, who just netted his first career hat track at 21 years young, Landon Ferraro, and Ryan Spooner have all had a large role in the revival of the Bruins’ offense on an off the man advantage. But it’s names like Matt Beleskey...
What Should the Detroit Red Wings Pay Justin Abdelkader?

What Should the Detroit Red Wings Pay Justin Abdelkader?

November 10th, 2015 After posting career highs in goals (23), assists (21), and points (44) last season, Justin Abdelkader picked up where he left off and had a scorching opening weekend to the 2015-16 season. With four points (3 G, 1 A), he was named the NHL’s First Star of the Week. UPDATE: Justin Abdelkader has signed a seven-year, $29.75 million...
New Bruins Getting Confident in Lineup

New Bruins Getting Confident in Lineup

October 28th, 2015 It's been said before—this Boston Bruins team will score a lot of goals. And so far, they have. Before Tuesday's game, the Bruins had scored 20 goals in their last five games. Then, they added six more in one night, shutting out the Arizona Coyotes, 6-0. Something needed to change with this Bruins team. Winners of their last two...
Can Bruins' David Krejci Win The Art Ross Trophy?

Can Bruins' David Krejci Win The Art Ross Trophy?

October 26th, 2015 The year is 1975. A gallon of gas cost a meager 44 cents. Margaret Thatcher became Britain's first female leader of the Conservative Party. The Vietnam War had finally ended. In the NHL, The Washington Capitals and now defunct Kansas City Scouts were the League's two newest franchises. The Philadelphia Flyers won their second...
Pastrnak and Krejci Dominant as Linemates

Pastrnak and Krejci Dominant as Linemates

September 23rd, 2015 There are two things you generally should know about preseason hockey. First, don't pay much attention to the line combinations you see in training camp. And second, any player's one-off performance in a game where everything's made up and the points don't matter usually shouldn't be taken too seriously. After seeing what David...
What Was The Best Move Of The Boston Bruins' Offseason?

What Was The Best Move Of The Boston Bruins' Offseason?

September 5th, 2015 There's only one certainty with regards to the Boston Bruins' offseason: it didn't lack excitement. A new general manager and significant roster turnover were two of the main highlights in a summer of change. Missing the playoffs for the first time in eight years brought along an expectation of modifying the franchise. Don Sweeney...
