I grew up in a golden era of the Bruins and Canadiens rivalry. The Bruins had Milan Lucic, Andrew Ference, Zdeno Chara, Adam McQuaid, Greg Campbell, and Shane Hnidy. Montreal had Mike Komisarek, Josh Gorges, Roman Hamrlík, Maxim Lapierre, and Tom Kostopoulos. Anytime that game was coming up on the schedule; we knew … Keep Reading

Before the season started, this story didn’t seem like it would be possible. Going over potential career milestones and all-time leader lists, Brad Marchand sat just 93 points behind the legend Bobby Orr. Like Alexander Ovechkin and his goal chase, the season-long stories would write themselves. However, Marchand was coming off double hip surgery … Keep Reading

When Don Sweeney acquired Hampus Lindholm from the Anaheim Ducks for a first-round pick, two second-round picks, Urho Vaakanainen and John Moore, it was widely considered a good move for Boston. Looking back at it today, it was a phenomenal move by Sweeney and crew.

Hampus Lindholm was known as a notable defenseman around the league … Keep Reading

Since Taylor Hall joined the Bruins, their top two lines have never looked better. Brad Marchand, Patrice Bergeron, and David Pastrnak have been doing what they do best, and the new second line of Hall, David Krejci, and Craig Smith has been excellent. But despite that top-six clicking, their bottom-six group has been wildly inconsistent. … Keep Reading

A disappointing defeat at the hands of the Buffalo Sabres ended the Bruins’ five-game win streak as they lost by a score of 6-4 on Friday night. Patrice Bergeron was a late scratch due to a lower-body injury, and the team really couldn’t stay out of the box or get any juice going offensively … Keep Reading

By Leon Lifschutz | Follow me @BruinsBreakdown

The Bruins managed a seven to five victory in a game reminiscent of the 1980s. The theme was completed with several dog piles in this latter half of a back-to-back. Both teams played with a sense of urgency with Boston trying to solidify its spot in the top-four of the division and Pittsburgh needing the points … Keep Reading

By Leon Lifschutz | Follow me @BruinsBreakdown

In the battle of the black and golds, Boston dropped the first match of the two-game set. While there is much to discuss, and of course we will, an item brought up on the broadcast was ‘believability’. Specifically, the Bruins had a belief they could win every game early in the season battling back from multi-goal … Keep Reading

By Nathan Anderson | Follow me on Twitter @ndrsn27

As mentioned by Zack Carlone in the pregame notes (you can check him out on Twitter @zcarlone21, by the way), the problem for the Bruins lately has been consistency. Following a 4-0 win over the Rangers last Thursday, they fell flat Saturday afternoon and lost to those same Rangers by that same score, just … Keep Reading
