Welcome to Saturday, folks! After a relatively quiet trade deadline, the Bruins are back in action today — and it’s a pretty important game in the playoff race. As always, treat that 12:30 start time with an asterisk, as this is an ABC game. We could place bets on what time puck drop actually happens. […]
After a small move involving minor league players earlier on deadline day, the Bruins wrapped up their business with another minor move. Just after the deadline had passed, the Bruins announced that they’ve acquired forward Lukas Reichel from the Vancouver Canucks. (Side note: the press release used weird phrasing, which was “Bruins agree to acquire […]
The biggest and most chaotic day of the NHL Calendar is here! The 2026 NHL trade deadline is today (March 6) at 3 PM Eastern, with teams either loading up for a playoff run or selling players and preparing for the future. Boston’s place in that pile however…is less certain than it was last year. […]
It’s the last game before the trade deadline! Everyone remain calm, or freak out, if you’d rather do that. I’m not your boss. The Bruins and Predators face off in a game with playoff implications for both teams (though you could say that about pretty much every game from here on out, I guess). The […]

After getting partially goalie’d on Saturday afternoon, the Bruins responded with a partial goalie’ing of their own on Tuesday.

All three goals in this game were scored […]

Welcome to a new week, folks! The Bruins won’t be back in action until tomorrow night, when they host the streaking Pittsburgh Penguins at TD Garden.

In a tightly played contest, it ended up being Dan Vladar who made a few extra saves. The former Bruin out-dueled Jeremy Swayman, stopping 26 of 27 shots and leading the Flyers to a 3-1 win. Vladar was at his best in the second period, when he stopped all 16 shots he faced. This game […]
With a 3 PM start, you’re getting the rare “Preview/Public Skate” combo! Hold onto this post, it may be worth money someday. Prior to today’s game, here are the basics: I say “3ish” for the start time, as these ABC national games always seem to kind of just start whenever they want. 3:01, 3:12, 3:99…you […]
With Jeremy Swayman given an extra night off to acclimate to post-Olympic life, Joonas Korpisalo filled in more than admirably. The former Columbus netminder made 36 saves, including several big ones, to lead the Bruins to a 4-2 win over the Blue Jackets at TD Garden. Viktor Arvidsson led the way on offense with two […]
No, your eyes are not deceiving you — that IS PJ Axelsson and Jared Boll! For whatever reason, that was one of the first images that popped up when searching for “Bruins Columbus,” along with UCLA playing Ohio State. It seemed like a good idea to start the second half Public Skates with some nostalgia. […]
