The Bruins certainly strengthened their team, both in the short term and the long term, with the acquisition of Hampus Lindholm at this year’s trade deadline. Lindholm should be able to play alongside Charlie McAvoy for the foreseeable future, solidifying the top pairing. What General Manager Don Sweeney was not

Ok, Bruins fans, let’s take a short breather and try to relax. As we all know, the Bruins are in a big 0-2 series hole with this powerhouse of a Hurricanes team, and the clock is beginning to tick on the 2021-2022 season. Let’s state the obvious facts. Besides the first ten minutes of

Let’s be abundantly clear. Both the newly acquired Hampus Lindholm and goal-scoring sensation David Pastrnak are required pieces to the Bruins 2022 Stanley Cup puzzle.
