With the 2-1 win over the New York Islanders last night, the Boston Bruins find themselves back in a playoff spot. Both of Boston’s goals didn’t come from one of the usual contributors; they came from Riley Nash. It was his sixth and seventh goal of the season, but they couldn’t have come at a better time.

Last night the biggest offseason signing by the Boston Bruins gave us all a scare as he fell awkwardly into the boards in the first period after catching an edge. David Backes was helped off the ice by teammates, walked down the tunnel to the dressing room and it seemed our luck had changed from good to bad. He channeled his inner … Keep Reading

So far in the Bruce Cassidy era, we have seen a four-game win streak, high tempo offense, Tuukka Rask standing on his head, and chemistry between Jimmy Hayes, Ryan Spooner, and Frank Vatrano. They have only played together for four games, but it has Boston Bruins fans talking all over Causeway Street. It takes a lot for a Bruin’s fan this year to admit … Keep Reading

Colin Miller’s determination can be summed up in a quote from the Little Engine That Could by Watty Piper, “I think I can, I think I can.” He has been one of the most improved players under coach Bruce Cassidy’s new system.
