Sharks shutdown the Bruins
Posted on 6 Feb 2011 by Jim Mulligan.
Outside of Phil Kessel, the ex-Bruin that the fans look forward to seeing the most is Joe Thornton. Including yesterday's 2-0 blanking of the B's, the three times Jumbo Joe has returned to Boston, his Sharks have always come out on the winning end. “It is just a win. Maybe the first time I was here, you wanted to win the first one. But now it is just any other road game, I think....

Not this time for the Bruins
Posted on 15 Jan 2011 by Jim Mulligan.
The Boston Bruins hosted the Pittsburgh Penguins at the TD Garden this afternoon. It was the third time they've played each other and the first here in Boston. Both games in Pittsburgh, it was the Penguins jumping out to big leads only to have the Bruins come back to steal victories from the Pens. With the exception of the result, today was no different. Chris Kunitz's first period goal comb...

Bruins go on the road – No suspension for Lucic
Posted on 26 Dec 2010 by Jim Mulligan.
After a less than successful three game homestand, the Claude Julien's Bruins are heading out on the road to tour the Southeast Division. With blizzard like conditions throughout New England today, the B's moved their practice up so they could get out of town before the weather prevented their charter from getting off the ground. The trip starts tomorrow in Sunrise, FL against the Panthers ...

Lackluster effort sinks B’s
Posted on 21 Dec 2010 by Jim Mulligan.
Over the course of an NHL season, there are going to be nights when a team doesn't ‘show up'. Tonight was certainly one of those nights for the Bruins. The sad thing is, after such a promising start, they have now lost 4 of the last 5 games. It's definitely a slump and it doesn't get any easier on Thursday night when the first place Atlanta Thrashers come to town. Throughout the locker r...

Flyers return to the scene of the crime
Posted on 12 Dec 2010 by Jim Mulligan.
Close your eyes with me. OK, the leaves are on the trees and the sun is shining. The sun is a warm, almost hot, 68 degrees for Boston. It's playoff hockey and the Bruins are hosting the Flyers in Game 7 of the Conference Quarter Finals. What a night for hockey…a Friday night too. Do you have the picture in your mind? If anyone ever tells you a hockey game needs five or six goals to make ...

Marco Sturm – Still not traded
Posted on 3 Dec 2010 by Jim Mulligan.
It looks like the ongoing saga of the Bruins, Kings and Marco Sturm has been put to rest…for the time being. In the five years he's been here, Marco has been happy as a Bruin but he does have an expiring contract with a no trade clause. He would make a good short term player for a team willing to ‘go the extra mile' for a Cup. He's got grit, decent speed (prior to the last knee inj...

Rex hits 1500!
Posted on 24 Nov 2010 by Jim Mulligan.
With two goals tonight, Mark Recchi now has 1,500 career points. With 4:00 remaining in a 2-1 game against the Florida Panthers, Recchi scored a power play goal on a rebound of a Milan Lucic wrist shot. Rex said in a post-game TV interview that both goals were important for the team and he was glad to help get the win. Recchi now stands at #13 overall in career points. Next up on the list...

Bruins lose in a shootout
Posted on 21 Nov 2010 by Jim Mulligan.
Stupid gimmick shootouts. This would have been one of those nights where a tie would have felt like a win. For the most part, the Bruins played a strong game tonight. A couple of bad breaks in the first period led to an early deficit that the Bruins couldn't completely climb out of. The Bruins came out flying in the first period but it was the Kings that would score on two of their first four s...

Let’s “BEAT LA” – NHL style
Posted on 20 Nov 2010 by Jim Mulligan.
This was one of my “Top 10 Games” I wanted to see this year. I like how the Kings have been built and their style of play. Also, I'm hoping it will be a treat to watch drew Doughty on the back line for LA. As many puckheads know by now, the hockey world lost a true character yesterday. Pat Burns was the ultimate fighter but his fight with cancer ended yesterday. He couldn't beat can...

Lucic’s Hat Trick Powers Bruins
Posted on 19 Nov 2010 by Jim Mulligan.
The NHL season is a long one and sometimes you get a game that's a total stinker. Tonight was that stinker. Ya, the Bruins shutout the Florida Panthers by a score of 4-0 but for the first fifty five minutes tonight….zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Both teams played and won last night and they got in late to Boston so the sluggish game could be blamed on that. Sometime it happens when you play...

Rask left singing the Blues
Posted on 7 Nov 2010 by Jim Mulligan.
Tuukka Rask got a rare, early season start tonight for the Bruins. Unfortunately, every time he's seen action, the Bruins have lost – including tonight. In the other end, it was Jaroslav Halak for St. Louis. If not for the “all world” start by Tim Thomas, Halak would be getting all the October accolades for NHL goaltenders. Coming off a sloppy effort in Washington last night...
