Another Post About Tuukka

We have already discussed the offense and the defense of the Boston Bruins heading into tomorrow’s season opener against the New York Rangers and you know what they say: If you’re going to do it two times… To wrap up the season preview, it is on to the last piece of the puzzle: their goaltending. It was not very long after the Bruins’ Game 7 loss in the first round of last year’s ...

Behind the Blue Line
Posted on 18 Jan 2013 by Matt Preston.
There are some folks out there who say I tend to say a little too much when I write. Thanks to those folks, my season preview for the 2013 Boston Bruins was broken up. Yesterday, an improving offense that was already statistically one of the best in the league was discussed. Today, it is a look at the team’s bread-and-butter: their defensive presence. A cynic might try to argue the Bruins def...

Anyone Remember the Offseason?
Posted on 17 Jan 2013 by Matt Preston.
There was a time in my life when people would have regarded me as smart, with a knack for recalling facts, statistics and events. Celebrating the four month anniversary of the start of the lockout by penning a season preview, however, I find it difficult to recall all the way back to those summer months and all the movement that went on in the NHL. Luckily for me, the Boston Bruins decided to t...

Pittsburgh Pirates: 2012 Season Preview
Posted on 26 Mar 2012 by Drew Karpen.
Last year, the city of Pittsburgh got a glimpse of what meaningful baseball feels like in the second half of the season, for the first time in nearly two decades. The Pirates finished the first half of the season, with their eyes set on the NL Central title. All the players were never in this position before, and the youth was a main contributor to the downfall. With the 2012 season less than t...

In the Words of Wayne Campbell; a Northeast Division Preview
Posted on 5 Oct 2011 by Matt Preston.
New England Sports Network (NESN), the local sports station up here in New England that telecasts Bruins games, has been running promos pimping the new season that show a montage from the Bruins’ locker room celebration following their 2011 Stanley Cup victory ending with the tag line, “To be continued…” Well, the story of the Boston Bruins certainly did not end on that faithful night i...

New York Mets Season Preview
Posted on 28 Mar 2011 by Jim Mancari.
After an offseason clouded by financial issues, injuries and the debate over whether to release Luis Castillo and Oliver Perez, the New York Mets are finally ready for baseball this season. Expectations aren’t exactly high, especially since the Philadelphia Phillies and Atlanta Braves appear ready to duke it out for bragging rights in the N.L. East. However, if a few things fall perfectly int...

2010-2011 UMass Basketball Preview
Posted on 10 Nov 2010 by Jeremy Frassa.
Derek Kellogg is entering his third season as coach of the UMass Minutemen. His first two seasons at UMass were not exactly picture perfect. His team posted a record of 24-38 during his first two seasons as head coach. The the inability to properly execute the dribble drive offense has really seemed to hurt the team. When Kellogg was hired as head coach in the spring of 2008, he came to a tea...

Washington Wizards – Season Preview
Posted on 6 Oct 2010 by Robert Bode.
Washington Wizards – Season Preview After a disastrous 2009-2010 season, the Wizards off-season went well by officially making Ted Leonsis team owner and winning the NBA Draft lottery, where they selected Kentucky point guard John Wall with the first overall selection. The 2010-2011 season is rapidly approaching and the Wizards don't figure to be much more than a rebuilding team, but if the b...

Hornets 2010 Preview
Posted on 28 Sep 2010 by Andrew Tressler.
As the New Orleans begin the 2010 season this week with training camp, I decided to make my predictions for the Hornets this season. First things first though. The big news besides starting training camp this week for New Orleans was the signing of former Hornets player and fan favorite PG Jannero Pargo. Pargo as I hope you remember was a key bench player during the 2007-08 Hornets season where...

It's that time again, the Colorado Avalanche training camps are open and hockey season is preparing to swing into full gear. The Avs are looking to pickup from where they left off last year. Last year's performance was well above expectations, and had many Avs' fans pleasantly surprised. However this year, the team's expectations should be higher. The Avs' impact player this year will be Matt D...

Nashville Predator’s Season Preview!
Posted on 18 Sep 2010 by Chris Rydburg.
Can you feel it? Do you wish they would flood a lacrosse field so you could watch a real sport? Do you notice cars that remind you of Zamboni's? Is your idea of a great Halloween mask a face crushed against the glass? If so, you have “hockeyitis”. But fear not, help is coming soon. The leaves are already changing here in Oxford, Ohio. With the drop in temperature comes the prom...

The Road to Relevance Begins Anew Again
Posted on 30 Aug 2010 by Jordan Lauterbach.
It’s almost remarkable to think about where Notre Dame was this time last year. Late summer 2009 was all about desperation. It was a hopeful time, but also a time of urgency. Charlie Weis had one more year. He had the offense to put together a BCS run and, if he failed, there was no doubt he’d be gone. Three months and only six wins later, Weis was history and notorious program builder Bria...
