Thomas Shines as Bruins Outlast Toronto 3-2
It seems even when the Bruins don’t bring their ‘A’ game, they still find a way to win.
Boston outlasted the Maple Leafs last night in Toronto, edging their Northeast division rival 3-2 in front of a sellout crowd at the Molson Centre. The Leafs controlled the play for much of the game, but Boston capitalized [...]
Bruins Beat Chicago 2-1 in Original Six Matchup
The Boston Bruins have not been very successful in the shootout since its inception three years ago. Fortunately for Boston, Chicago has been worse.
Tim Thomas stoned Chicago forward Dave Bolland in the third round of the controversial game-decider, and B’s winger PJ Axelsson immediately followed with a fancy deke to beat goaltender Nikolai Khabibulin and [...]
Wheeler Notches 1st Career Hat Trick as Bruins Beat Toronto 5-2
Blake Wheeler has had a number of firsts this season. First NHL game, first point, first goal. Last night, he added another to the ever-growing list; first hat trick. The rookie winger potted three goals, including an empty-netter, as the Boston Bruins cruised past the Toronto Maple Leafs 5-2.
Dennis Wideman and Zdeno Chara also scored [...]
NHL All-Star Ballots Released; Tim Thomas Snubbed
The NHL released the 2009 All-Star Ballot yesterday, and as is the case with any all-star format in professional sports, there were a few players worthy of consideration who were left off the ballot. There was one snub in particular which raised quite a few eye brows among Bruins fans, however: B’s goaltender Tim Thomas. [...]
Bruins Stumble in Shootout Again
In last night’s home opener at the Garden, Patrice Bergeron received a thunderous ovation in his first game back in front of the home crowd. The Bruins’ intensity in the first period matched that of the crowd, but they were unable to capitalize against Sidney Crosby and the Penguins.
The Bruins managed to control the all [...]
Bergeron Keys Bruins Win in Opener
You couldn’t expect much from a 23 year-old kid who hasn’t played an NHL hockey game in almost a year. Shortly after his last real hockey game, fans who once pronounced him the next face of the franchise hoped he would someday walk again, never mind lead a professional sports team.
A little over eight months ago, watching [...]
Bruins Back for (Much) More
With veterans healthy and youngsters one year wiser, the boys in black and gold are ready to build on a so-so 2007 campaign. Despite getting pummeled in Game 7 against the top seeded Canadiens, the bright spots throughout the season were far from scarce.
Bruins Initially an Afterthought in 2007-08
After losing their leader early on in [...]
Goalie Feels a Little Tender
The long list of injured Bruins grew a little longer last week when Tim Thomas, in net for Team USA at the World Championships, wrenched his left knee in a qualifying game against Team Canada at Halifax.
Bot Thoughts: I would suggest that Tim Thomas sit out the World Championships. The Bruins pay him, not the [...]
Bruins Force Game 7!
In a seesaw, whirlwind third period of six goals between the two teams, the Bruins scored last and held on for the victory 5-4. Marco Sturm scored with only 2:37 remaining to give the Bruins the 5-4 lead. In a tense final two minutes, the Bruins held off the Canadiens onslaught and have forced game [...]
Bruins on the Brink
The Bruins now are on the brink of elimination after a 1-0 shutout loss to the rival Canadiens. Montreal’s Patrice Brisebois scored with just 42 seconds left in the second period for the only goal of the game.
That was all the scoring that goaltender Carey Price needed as he pitched his first playoff shutout. He [...]
Bruins Back in Business
The Bruins were in overtime against a team they had not beaten in 13 previous tries. A loss would mean not only a 14th consecutive defeat, but a 3-0 series defecit in the opening round of the playoffs. The Bruins rose up, however, and beat the Montreal Canadiens 2-1 in overtime Sunday night to get back [...]
Tim Thomas Added to NHL All-Star Roster
Bruins goalie Tim Thomas was added to the Eastern Conference’s All-Star roster for the NHL All-Star game to be played this coming Sunday, January 27. He’s a replacement for Devils goalie Martin Brodeur.
Thomas has been stellar for the B’s this season, leading the league in save percentage (.930). The Bruins netminder is also eighth in [...]
Habs down B’s 5-2; Goaltending Issue Starts to Take It’s Toll
After a punishing skating session, Bruins fans were enthusiastic about the matchup between their team and the long hated Habs. Despite their best efforts, the Bruins fell short; thanks to a brutal performance of Tim Thomas between the pipes.
I must say that I was very frustrated by the result since the team worked very hard [...]
Bruins Mid-Season Report
It’s Christmas and the Bruins just passed the 36 games benchmark which is almost the half-way point of the season. It’s time to evaluate the team on their defensive, offensive and goaltending performances.
Defense: The most improved aspect of the team. Last year, the Bruins were incredibly good at creating turnovers in their own end; allowing [...]
