Eight games separate the Boston Bruins from a possible return to the Stanley Cup Playoffs. However, Thursday night could be their last stand at obtaining a moniker that few thought would be possible before the season started. Thursday night will mark their final head-to-head matchup with the Atlantic Division co-leading Florida Panthers. Boston’s 5-2 loss in […]

Frank Vatrano is playing like a man possessed. The American Hockey League has been a personal playground for the undrafted free agent from the University of Massachusetts-Amherst. His first professional season as a hockey player has been filled with red lights. In just 33 games, Vatrano has a League-leading 33 goals including three hat tricks in […]

When the Boston Bruins left for their annual California swing last weekend, their spirits were as high as the Golden State sun. Coming off a 3-1 victory against the New York Islanders, the Black and Gold were on a seven-game unbeaten run in regulation (5-0-2). They had their sights set on not just the playoffs […]

Sometimes in life, we take the little things for granted. Such is the case with Bruins fans and their coach Claude Julien. The 55-year-old has been under the microscope several times behind the bench on Causeway Street. The notables include Game 7 of their 2011 first-round playoff series in which The Boston Globe’s Kevin Paul […]

To this point in the season, the Boston Bruins have taken their fans on a rollercoaster ride. The peaks and valleys of an inconsistent squad has taken its toll on a fan base that demands postseason hockey. Causeway Street was void of Black and Gold buzz last year. That cannot happen again. Through all the […]

Deadline Day in Boston. It was a day filled with anticipation at the outset. Pending free agent Loui Eriksson was the biggest fish in their pond and the wild card to what they would do. Contract negotiations had stalled out in recent days, leading most to believe he had certainly played in last game as […]

The Boston Bruins have come a long way in the last decade. A team that finished the 2005-06 season near the bottom of the League finished atop the League summit just five years later to deliver a long-awaited Stanley Cup to hockey-crazed fans around New England. Five years on, the new regime of general manager […]

Boston Bruins fans have been collective witnesses to the evolution of their lovable pest Brad Marchand. However, no one could have predicted the incredible season their feisty winger has put together. Marchand’s stick is emitting more heat than the sun right now. The 27-year-old is in the best goal-scoring form in his career with 13 […]

Prior to the start of the 2015-16 NHL season, Bruins fans didn’t know what they would get from their team. A new general manager and several moving parts made Boston one of the “wild cards”; nobody knew what they would be or where they would finish. A playoff spot seemed to be the expectation from […]

It has been over eight weeks since Boston Bruins’ winger David Pastrnak last set foot on TD Garden ice. Their Halloween clash against the Tampa Bay Lighting was when B’s fans last saw their 19-year-old sophomore forward before suffering a broken foot in the same game. As the New Year begins, the Bruins are in desperate […]

Last season, Ryan Spooner found himself the beneficiary of David Krejci’s misfortune. Boston’s top-line center found himself out of the lineup with a knee injury suffered in St. Louis back in late-February. The 23-year-old Spooner, who had been sent down earlier in the season due to his ineffectiveness, was called up in what may have […]

Passion. Hatred. History. These are all attributes that are the foundation for any great rivalry in sports. For the Boston Bruins and Montreal Canadiens, it couldn’t be any more true. On Wednesday night, they will write the 732nd chapter in their nearly 90-year-old rivalry dating back to the days of the Original Six. Many Hockey […]

The Boston Bruins were a pretty confident bunch heading into their most recent road trip in Western Canada. And for good reason. The club was riding a five-game win streak into Edmonton on Wednesday night that vaulted the Bruins back into the Eastern Conference top-eight. Signature victories over Detroit and the New York Rangers gave […]

The Boston Bruins are feeling pretty good about themselves these days. I have some good news … The bruins are still on a 5 game winning streak. — Patrick Power Jr. (@PatrickPowerJr) November 30, 2015 Five straight victories has them riding a wave of momentum and confidence that has lacked at times this season. The […]

Things in Boston were not looking very rosy 11 days ago. The Bruins were sitting at 8-8-1 after losing five of their last seven games to start the month of November. A disappointing 5-4 defeat to the San Jose Sharks was the exact opposite of what Claude Julien’s troops wanted to do to kick off […]

Thanksgiving. It’s a tradition that goes back to the pilgrims almost 400 years ago. People of all backgrounds come together for a day to reflect on the things they are thankful for. Family and good health are two of the most common ones that you hear, year in and year out. That is of course […]

The TD Garden has not been kind to the Boston Bruins this season. Entering their most recent five-game homestand, they were a measly 1-4-1 in Boston. Thanks to their road form (6-2-0), the Bruins were in a position to right the ship with some winnable matchups in their personal house of horrors. It was arguably […]

Back in September, Boston Bruins training camp had several positional battles that fans kept a close watch on. One of them was to see who would backup franchise netminder Tuukka Rask. Malcolm Subban, Jeremy Smith and Zane McIntyre were thought of as the main candidates to fill that roster spot. However, it was the last […]

The date is November 30, 2005. The Boston Bruins are sitting in the basement of the old Northeast Division after losing nine of their last 10 games (1-8-1). The San Jose Sharks are rooted to the foot of the Pacific Division after losing 10 straight games (0-7-3). It’s pretty clear that both teams need to […]

The Atlantic Division has seen its fair share of storylines early on this season. The Boston Bruins are a statistical anomaly compared to years past. The Tampa Bay Lightning are struggling to execute on the things that made them Eastern Conference champions last year. Ageless wonder Jaromir Jagr is carrying the Florida Panthers offense on […]
