Oh no, the Bruins are only 20-3-1 - December 5th, 2022 06.12.2022

We are back! The Bruins continue their winning ways as their record improves to 20-3-1, and their home ice record climbs to 14-0-1. Patrice Bergeron hits 1000 points, Bruce Cassidy returns to Boston, and the B's find themselves in the NHL record books a couple of times for their amazing start!

Everything's Great... Except for Bruins Management - November 13th, 2022 14.11.2022

We are back... and we discuss the fallout from the Bruins insensible and atrocious decision to sign Mitchell Miller. How on earth could anyone think that was a good idea?? Cam Neely made Gary Bettman the voice of reason. Yikes. At the 27:30 mark, we move on to discuss the good parts of the team - the players. They continue their hot streak, Charlie McAvoy returns, and the B's are 14-2(!!!) through...

Just Keep Winning - November 3rd, 2022 04.11.2022

We are back! The Bruins just keep on winning, and Hampus Lindholm is a horse! We break down all of the takeaways from the B's last 5 games! Brad Marchand returns from injury, Craig Smith actually scored, and the B's erased a 5-2 deficit against the Penguins! Are there any valid reasons for not paying David Pastrnak every single penny he wants? Does he deserve McDavid money? We then discuss the onl...

Greatest Team in Hockey - October 22nd, 2022 22.10.2022

We're back! The Bruins are off and running, and are 5-1 out of the gate! Tune in as we discuss the Bruins' reverse retro jersey, and our takeaways from the first handful of games.

Jeremy Swayman has had a rough start, can he rebound? We also...

Waivers, Cuts and Chaos! - October 9th, 2022 10.10.2022

We are back! The Bruins made some news on Sunday, placing Mike Reilly, Nick Foligno, and Chris Wagner on waivers. We predict what will happen to them as we await to see if anyone is claimed. We look forward to the Bruins opener and discuss what the potential lineup will look like without some key players to start the season. Oh yeah... should we be worried that David Pastrnak hasn't been extended...

It's Hockey Season Already? - September 25th, 2022 26.09.2022

We are back! The Preseason is already underway as the calendar soon turns to October. We discuss what little takeaways we had from the preseason game vs the Flyers and training camp thus far. We then move on to discuss the retirement of Zdeno Chara, who had an unbelievable career that words never seem to do justice. We move on to discuss Subban and Yandle's retirements, Anton Stralman signing a PT...

David Pastrnak's Future Remains Blurred - September 7th, 2022 07.09.2022

We are back! All is quiet on the David Pastrnak front as Captain's Practices are set to begin next week. We give our thoughts on the lack of news surrounding 88, and debate on when we should begin to "worry" about the possibility of Pasta's time in Boston coming to an end. We move on to discuss the latest happenings around the hockey world: Kadri signing in Calgary, Team Canada winning the WJC and...

Getting The Band Back Together - August 8th, 2022 08.08.2022

The Bruins roster is finally taking shape for the upcoming season, and we take a look at the potential lines (when/if healthy).

Alex's internet FINALLY cooperated, so we are back! NHL free agency has begun, and there is a lot to discuss! We break down the Pavel Zacha for Erik Haula trade, and give our insights on the remaining free agents. We take a league-wide look at the important trades and signings, and discuss if Detroit or Ottawa have what it takes to make a wild card push! We wrap up the episode taking a look at the...

Draft Recap + Free Agency Preview! - July 9th, 2022 09.07.2022

Don Sweeney Extended... 😦 - June 28th, 2022 29.06.2022

We're back... and fortunately... the Tampa Bay Lightning have LOST a series for the first time since 2019. Unfortunately... Don Sweeney is back... for multiple years. We recap the month of June as Bruce Cassidy becomes the Head Coach of the Vegas Golden Knights, Patrice Bergeron is rumored to be returning on a one-year deal, and the Bruins have been interviewing many candidates for their head coac...

Bruce Cassidy... Fired?! - June 6th, 2022 07.06.2022

We were planning on recording an episode talking about the bruins injury updates, Bergeron winning the Selke, NHL conference finals & Celtics talk.... but then, out of nowhere, the Bruins announced that they have FIRED Bruce Cassidy, in a stunning and unexpected move. Bruce Cassidy is not to blame for Management and ownership's lack of ability to put forth a true contender. Don Sweeney has rou...

Don Sweeney's Future - May 20th, 2022 21.05.2022

We're back, and here to discuss everything to do with the Bruins offseason coming up! We talk about a bunch of different notes coming from the Bruins locker cleanout press conferences, such as Matt Grzelcyk's need for surgery, Bergeron's unwillingness to play anywhere else, Jake DeBrusk taking time to decide his future, and so much more! As well, we then get into Don Sweeney and Cam Neely, and ran...

First Rounded - May 14th, 2022 15.05.2022

We're back, and after an emotional series, the Bruins fall to the hurricanes in game 7. The Bruins just didn't have enough scoring to get past a very good canes team. We look back on game 7, and the series as a whole, and discuss the bruins fatal flaw, which just so happens to be a recurring theme. We briefly take a look at the bruins offseason situation, as this offseason is setting up to be a wi...

There Will be a Game 7 - May 12th, 2022 13.05.2022

We're back... and the Bruins found a way to force a Game 7! Charlie McAvoy appeared out of thin air, returning to the Bruins lineup for Game 5 randomly! We talk about his return in that game,... and nothing else that happened there. We then shift our focus mainly to Game 6 where the Bruins offensive depth came up clutch, with goals from Erik Haula & Derek Forbort notably. Hampus Lindholm also...

Two a Piece - May 8th, 2022 09.05.2022

Hampus Lindholm continues to miss games recovering from the game 2 hit he took, an...

Down Bad - May 4th, 2022 05.05.2022

We are back... and the Bruins are down 2-0 to the Hurricanes, and everything seems off with the B's. Tune in for a recap of the first two games, with a focus on the very dumb things from game 2. David Pastrnak unintentionally hits and injures Antti Raanta, prompting Hurricanes coach Rod Brind'Amour to infer that the Bruins are intentionally trying to hurt the hurricanes goalies. The Hurricanes wer...

Bruins vs Canes Preview + League Wide Predictions! - May 1st, 2022 02.05.2022

We're back... and so is playoff hockey! Tune in as we preview the Bruins taking on the Carolina Hurricanes in what should be a very close series!

One Week Until The Playoffs - April 24th, 2022 25.04.2022

Pastrnak, Lindholm, and Ullmark return as well, but Pastrnak and Lindholm did not...

What is a Powerplay Goal? - April 14th, 2022 15.04.2022

We're back! The Bruins stay consistent and lose on the night we record, lose another player to injury, and still cannot score on the Powerplay. They are just 1 for 24 on the man advantage in the month of April (6 GP). We spend the majority of the episode discussing the bruins recent struggles. Where do they go from here? Were there some misses at the deadline? Can the Bruins just start wrapping ev...

Erik Haula for MVP? - April 6th, 2022 06.04.2022

We're back! Yet again, despite winning every other game, the Bruins lose on the night we record... Alex apologizes, as it is totally his fault. Frederic, Pastrnak, and Lindholm all go down with injuries ahead of Friday night's tilt against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Will Pasta and Lindholm be ready for that game? Should Pastrnak be rested as the bruins are comfortably in a playoff spot? We also disc...

What on Earth was THAT? - March 29th, 2022 30.03.2022

We're back! On Monday, it was announced that Ottawa Senators owner Eugene Melnyk had passed away. RIP Eugene Melnyk. We discuss his impact on the Ottawa community.

We're back! Hampus Lindholm is a Bruin, and for 8 additional years! Tune in as we break down the trade that sends the 28 year old defenseman to the Bruins, where he fits on the team, as well as the other important trades around the NHL! Did the Bruins shoot themselves in the foot not trading for scoring help, or even a depth forward? We discuss and dive into the chaos that will ultimately be the E...

The Trade Deadline is Upon Us - March 16th, 2022 17.03.2022

We're back! The NHL trade deadline is just 5 days away, and some trades are already going down!
