Welcome to a new week, folks! Apologies for the lack of official recap on Saturday, but those 1 PM games can be tricky to cover.

Recap: Bruins make it two in a row with OT win over Buffalo

It wasn’t a perfect night at TD Garden on Thursday, as the Bruins let two different two-goal leads slip away against the Sabres. However, they managed to recover in time to skate off the ice with a 4-3 win, thanks to Marat Khusnutdinov’s game-winning goal 2:07 into overtime. The win was the second in a […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Senators

Welcome to Monday evening, folks! The last one in October, too. November looms. Get your cranberry sauce in order. Anyways, the Bruins will both start and end a brief road trip tonight with a match-up against the Senators. I don’t know if it’s even a road trip if it’s just one game. Maybe a road […]

Recap: Bruins end skid with 3-2 win over Avalanche

With a half-dozen consecutive losses in their back pocket and the Colorado Avalanche coming to town, you could forgive Bruins fans for having low expectations for this afternoon’s game. Instead, the Bruins got a stellar performance from Jeremy Swayman, a better team-wide effort, and a bit of luck to go their way in what ended […]

I think […]

Recap: Bruins drop to Ducks, 7-5, despite third-period rally

The Boston Bruins were served their sixth-straight loss by the Anaheim Ducks on Thursday night at the TD Garden, as the 7-5 loss was the product of poor game management when the game was on the line. Despite recovering from a two-goal deficit to start the third period to make it a 5-5 game, the […]

Recap: Wacky bounce sinks B’s as Panthers win, 4-3

There are frustrating ways to lose a hockey game, and then there’s whatever ended up happening at TD Garden tonight. After erasing a 2-0 deficit and then scoring with the goalie pulled to tie the game 3-3, Carter Verhaeghe’s shot hit the post, flew out near the circle, hit Andrew Peeke, and went in the […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Panthers

Welcome to hockey night, folks! Hopefully you’ve had yourself a decent Tuesday thus far. It’s probably fair to say that tonight’s game is one of the more eagerly anticipated regular season games in recent memory, with Brad Marchand returning as an opponent for the first time.

Preview/Public Skate: Tomorrow is a Latter Day

Just the Facts Know Your Enemy Game Preview I’ve been very interested in this Mammoth team for a minute now. Maybe not in a “adopted western team” way, but more like the way you watch an insect wander around an enclosure. Last year, they were one of the most impactful teams at 5v5 and yet […]

Boston is coming to Colorado’s barn to face a team that is quite interesting for the already high standards of Avs fans; some might even call them impossible.

Morning Skate: Dazed

Welcome to Friday, folks! In classic Las Vegas fashion, you can forgive the Bruins and their fans if they woke up a little fuzzy this morning. It was a wild one at T-Mobile Arena, with the B’s ultimately falling to the Golden Knights, 6-5. Similar to the game against Tampa, the Bruins were far too […]
