Top 10 Bruins moments of the 2010s

December 28, 2019

The Boston Bruins entered the 2010’s looking for some sort of relevancy in a passionate sports city. They looked on as the Patriots began their reign of dominance, the Red Sox ending the ‘Curse of the Bambino’ and the Celtics retaking the NBA throne after a 22-year drought in 2008.

What we learned: Bruins make a Capital statement before the holidays

December 23, 2019

The Boston Bruins were sick of losing, again. They entered Monday’s tilt with the Washington Capitals having lost eight of their last nine games.

What we learned: Bruins let another one slip away in OT loss to Kings.

December 18, 2019

The Boston Bruins did everything right by the book. They played a good 200-foot game and generated a few fortunate bounces on Los Angeles Kings netminder Jonathan Quick. They didn’t get the result, however. The Bruins couldn’t finish against a hot netminder in Quick, who made 36 saves on the night. They broke down in […]

The spontaneous moment of the Bruins’ “line brawl”

December 16, 2019

Sometimes you have to think outside the box amid frustrating times. The Boston Bruins did just that last week in the middle of their five-game losing streak.
