Fleury, Malkin Lead Pens Past Struggling Bruins
Hockey is a strange game folks. When things are going your way, everything seems to be clicking, you play with confidence, you tend to get the breaks here and there.

Ward Stops 47 As B’s Are Again Stymied By ‘Canes
Throughout my years of watching sports, I’ve never been fond of the expression “they just have your number” in response to being beaten repeatedly by the same team. However, watching each of the four meetings between the struggling Carolina Hurricanes and the defending Stanley Cup champion Bruins I’ve begun to think that my belief is [...]

B’s Use Third Period Rally To Edge Sens 4-3 At TD Garden

How They Stack Up: Bruins Mid-Season Report Cards

Thornton’s Penalty Shot, Third Period Domination Enough To Lead Bruins Past Jets

Bruins Put Out The Flames, Route Calgary For 9-0 Victory
On a night less than 48 hours in advance of a highly anticipated Stanley Cup Finals rematch with the Vancouver Canucks, it would have been easy to expect a “let-down” of sorts in Boston on Thursday evening when the Bruins played host to the Calgary Flames. Also, in a game that the B’s would be [...]
Marchand’s Hat-Trick Leads Red Hot Bruins To 8-0 Route Of Panthers
Widely recognized as the best team in hockey already, the Boston Bruins did everything they possibly could to further that assumption on Friday night.

B’s Fail To Play A Full 60; Fall To Sharks 4-2 At TD Garden
Saturday night the Bruins were re-taught an an old lesson and cliche; that a team cannot succeed in the NHL, without a full 60-minute effort. In Saturday evening’s game the B’s did not play to their full potential for an entire game. It wasn’t until after 40 minutes of lack-luster, un-inspiring play, that saw [...]

Jumbo Joe II?: Bruins Sign 2008′s 1st Round Pick Colborne
When the Bruins originally drafted 6’5″ center Joe Colborne in 2008, the comparisons to former Bruin Joe Thornton were drawn.
