Public Skate: Bruins vs. Stars

Welcome to another night of Bruins hockey, folks! After going two-for-two on the weekend, the Bruins host a very good Dallas Stars team that finds itself in a little bit of a funk at the moment. However, they DID just get Mikko Rantanen back from injury, which always helps. After tonight, the B’s will embark […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Blue Jackets

Well folks, for the second weekend evening in a row, the Bruins are occupying your 5 PM time slot. Today, the B’s are in Columbus to face an increasingly desperate Blue Jackets team, as they look to make the playoffs for the first time since the COVID-affected 2020 season. Both teams also played on Saturday, […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Wild

Welcome to Saturday Evening Hockey! A 5 PM Eastern start time is a little weird, but at least this game should be wrapped up by 9 PM. Perfect for either starting your night out or turning in, depending on where you find yourself in the age bracket. It goes without saying that this weekend’s results […]

Morning Skate: Room

Welcome to the last Friday in March, folks! Time flies, doesn’t it? I guess it’s easier to say that when looking back than when looking forward, but we aren’t hear for a philosophical debate on time. The Bruins were off yesterday (game-wise) and will have another break today. They’ll return to action with a back-to-back […]

Recap: Zacha’s OT goal lifts Bruins to 4-3 win over Buffalo

Former Sabre Casey Mittelstadt tied the game late in the third period and Pavel Zacha scored just 38 seconds into overtime to give the Bruins a 4-3 win over the Sabres in Buffalo. Zacha’s goal, his 24th of the season, capped a back-and-forth game and gave the B’s a much needed win after a disappointing […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Sabres

Welcome to another night of Bruins hockey, folks! While you can console yourself with the fact that losing to the Leafs helped worsen the Leafs’ draft lottery odds, there’s no getting around the fact that Tuesday night’s game was an ugly one for the Bruins. Things won’t get any easier tonight, with the B’s facing […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Maple Leafs

In normal times, this would be a nice early playoff preview, with the Bruins and Maple Leafs preparing to meet in the first round for the 1,399th consecutive year. Instead, the Leafs are just about the only Atlantic Division team not in the playoff picture (along with Florida), while the Bruins are hoping to hang […]

Bruins sign James Hagens to ATO

HagensWatch is (kind of) officially over, as the Bruins announced late Monday night that they’ve signed their 2025 first-round pick to an amateur tryout agreement, or an ATO. An ATO can be viewed as a compromise of sorts between the player and the team: Hagens will get a chance to show his stuff at the […]

Recap: Swayman stands tall as Bruins beat Red Wings

A three-goal third period and a monster performance from Jeremy Swayman powered the B’s to their most important win of the season (for now), as they beat the Red Wings 4-2 in Detroit. When the B’s went down 2-1 just four minutes into the third via an Alex DeBrincat goal, you could be forgiven for […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Red Wings

It’s Saturday night friends with a big divisional game on the line between the Boston Bruins and Detroit Red Wings both fighting for postseason play and positioning. Per the Bruins, there are no lineup changes tonight. We’ll see Lukas Reichel back in the lineup for his second game in the Black and Gold after an […]

Recap: Bruins roll over Jets to keep pace in the East

With a big divisional game against Detroit looming on Saturday night, you could be forgiven for worrying that the Bruins might overlook a home game against a fading Winnipeg Jets team. However, the B’s showed up and then some, jumping out to a 4-0 second period lead before eventually gliding to a 6-1 win at […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Jets

Welcome to another night of hockey, folks! Overall, taking four points out of six on a three-game road trip is pretty good, even if the way the B’s lost two games was a bit annoying. Points remain at a premium for both the Bruins, who currently find themselves in a playoff spot, and the Jets, […]

Recap: Bruins drop another point in OT loss to Montreal

It was déja vu all over again for the Bruins, as for the second night in a row, they gave away a lead and lost late in overtime. This time, it was a Cole Caufield goal with 22 seconds left in the extra session that sank the B’s, giving Montreal an important 3-2 win in […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Canadiens

It’s a little premature to call this the biggest game of the season for the Bruins, but I can’t remember the last time a regular season Bruins-Canadiens game had this much on the line. While these teams have played some entertaining games in recent years, most of them have come when one team was down […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Devils

Welcome to another edition of Monday Night Hockey, folks! After a needed win over the Capitals in D.C. on Saturday afternoon, the Bruins will face a New Jersey team with one (or both) eyes on the end of the regular season. It’s been a tough year for Jersey, but the Devils still have enough talent […]
