The Boston Bruins are off to a wholly encouraging start to their season, and the even better news is that they can really begin to distance themselves from everybody else over the course of the next month.

Giardi: Mike's Musings on a magical Maye, Durden's day and suspect secondary

Bedard: Patriots stop playing their food to beat Miami but now playtime is over with Packers, Lions up next
The Patriots need to get right pretty quickly, because they won't be able to play with their food the next two weeks as Green Bay (5-3) comes to Gillette, and the Patriots face the Lions (5-2) in Munich.
