Recap: Morgan Geekie ties the Red Wings, B’s win in a shootout!

JUST GIVE THE ROCKET RICHARD TO HIM NOW ALREADY First Period There was a ruckus! There was also a lot of penalty killing…But no scoring. Ultimately, that would have ‘till the middle frame. Second Period It’s a day ending in Y, and thus the B’s, deep in the Red Wings’ zone, managed to get the […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Red Wings

Annnnnnnnnd we’re back! Just a day after a Black Friday game that saw the home team giving away goals at deeply discounted prices, the Bruins are back at it, hosting Atlantic Division rivals Detroit at TD Garden. If anything, Detroit should be at a slight disadvantage tonight, as they also played Friday but had to […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Rangers

Welcome to Black Friday, folks! Hope you had a good Thanksgiving/Thursday. Sorry about the lack of official preview for today’s game, but Thanksgiving Night got away from me a bit. Here are your basics: The Rangers haven’t had the best start to the season, as they sit at the bottom of the Metropolitan Division with […]

Recap: Swayman shuts down Isles as Bruins win, 3-1

Behind 44 saves from Jeremy Swayman and the first multi-goal games of Alex Steeves’s career, the Bruins beat the Islanders, 3-1, on Long Island Wednesday night. The win gives the Bruins a season-series sweep over the Islanders. While Steeves deserves plaudits for his two goals (one of which was shorthanded), Swayman was the story in […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Islanders

Welcome to Thanksgiving Eve, folks! I hope you’ve hung your stockings by the chimney with care, in hopes that they’ll soon be filled with gravy, turkey, mashed potatoes, etc. I might be mixing up my holidays here, but it’s the Internet, there’s no truth anymore. Now that we’ve gotten the nihilism out of the way, […]

Morning Skate: Chomped

Monday begins, and a new week is upon us! The Bruins ended their California road trip with a loss on Sunday night, falling to the San Jose Sharks, 3-1. The B’s fell behind 2-0 with a Shark goal in each of the first two periods, but Morgan Geekie (who else) got one back midway through […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Sharks

Welcome to Sunday Night Hockey, folks! I’m putting this post together Saturday night, so hopefully your NFL team did OK today. If not, I’m sorry. The photo that accompanies this post is both cool and a symbol that time comes for us all. On the ice, wearing a white jersey, you’ll find none other than […]

Recap: Bruins beat Kings in OT behind two Geekie goals

With a cold New England winter on the horizon, it may behoove New England officials to see how they can tap into Morgan Geekie’s heat source to lower energy bills across the region. (That will be my platform when I run for President of New England, don’t steal it.) Geekie scored twice for the B’s […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Kings

Or maybe not! Time will tell. The magic of live sports. Anyways, it’s the Bruins vs. the Kings tonight at the […]

RECAP: B’s can’t complete comeback against Anaheim

Welp. 1st Period Things started bad. Things started very, very bad. Starting the game down 2-0 after about 7 minutes of gametime is not how you want your night to go. Thankfully, the Boston Bruins have a golden scoring force in Morgan Geekie, who said his Rocket Richard campaign is BACK ON! After 20? The […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Ducks

I don’t want to overstep, but as someone who is now old, it’s very inconsiderate of these California teams to play hockey games so late. I am going to write a strongly worded letter so they know how I feel (after I wake up from my nap). With that grousing out of the way, it’s […]

Morning Skate: Flat

Fresh off of an entertaining, adrenaline-filled win in Montreal on Saturday night, the Bruins came home Monday night and…well, they played a hockey game. It would be a little unfair to describe last night’s Bruins-Hurricanes game as “boring,” but it was a fairly businesslike 3-1 win for the visitors. The Bruins weren’t terrible, but were […]

The Bruins and Hurricanes will provide some entertainment for you this evening, as the B’s look to build on a solid showing in Montreal on Saturday night. Bruins! Hurricanes! LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE! […]

RECAP: Bruins hang on to beat Habs 3-2!

How’s that for a statement win? 1st Period The game started with a perfectly reasonable series of plays, both showcasing the skill of the competitors and the-I’m just f#!king with you it started with Jayden Struble and Nikita Zadorov chuckin’ fists as the game started. Pretty good little bout! In fact, it was so good […]

Morning Skate: End

Well folks, as the Ottawa Board of Tourism’s slogan goes, “Ottawa: Where All Good Things Come to an End.” I think I’m making that up, but maybe not. The Bruins’ trouble in Kanata continued last night, with their winning streak ending via a 5-3 loss to the Senators. True to form for nearly all of […]

Public Skate: Bruins vs. Senators

Thursday Night Hockey, folks! If channel surfing if your thing, you’ve got the Bruins and Senators at 7 PM and the Patriots vs. the Jets at 8:15 PM. A nice sports night if you’re a New Englander. Of course, it’s not really channel surfing anymore. Instead, it’s fumbling between two streaming services that you pay […]
