All good things come to an end, right? For the Bruins, their once blemish-free record beyond regulation this season now has its first scuff, as the Vancouver Canucks beat the B’s in a shootout last night, 5-4. It was a pretty entertaining game overall, with the B’s getting contributions from both down-the-lineup guys (goals from […]

Morning Skate: Starry

Sometimes the best player in world is just the best player in the world, eh?

McDavid assisted on Edmonton’s first goal, then added a […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Oilers

Another night of hockey is upon us, folks! We don’t see Edmonton too often around these parts, and it’s always a treat to get to watch elite talent like Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl.

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Mammoth

It’s not every game that we get a true clash of the titans. Sometimes we’re stuck with “Bruins vs. article of clothing” or “Bruins vs. weather phenomenon” or “Bruins vs. type of music.” Tonight, however, is one of those clashes: large bears vs. large kind-of elephants. Who will emerge victorious? Time will tell, I guess. […]

PWHL Update: Fleet lead the league after three games

So, stop me if you’ve heard this before: A team after losing lots of marquis talent due to outside circumstances comes into a new professional season and stuns everybody by playing much better than most prognostication expected. I know, this is a really hard mindset for 2025 Boston hockey fans to get into, but I […]

Get excited, folks: it’s Thursday night and the St. Louis Blues are coming to town! Just three more weeks until Santa Claus himself will be coming to town, but until then, we have to settle for…oh no, not Jordan Binnington!
