Earlier tonight, I was thinking about updating, but I also wanted to take a break from the Bruins news for a couple of more days. I didn't want to just post fluff stuff either. At least I have something to...

The first day of free agency has almost come and gone, and the Bruins have yet to make any signings, other than Blake Wheeler earlier, which was the worst kept secret since a few weeks ago. But a couple of...

Restricted free agent defenseman Dennis Wideman elected to file for salary arbitration. Wideman's salary last season was $600,000 and after the season he had (averaging 25 minutes/game and 36 points), he's due for a hefty little raise. This move affects...

The Bruins selected a total of six players in the 2008 NHL Entry Draft. Five of those picks were centers, and one a goaltender. I don't know about you, but I think the Bruins might have been telling us that...

I will get into who the Bruins drafted on Sunday because I have things to do on Saturday, and I can't be bothered to look things up at 3 a.m. But the Bruins drafted a center with the #16 pick....

I don’t want to become one of those hockey bloggers who only checks in periodically when something newsworthy breaks, although that is one reason to update. Aside from the Celtics occupying some of my time, I haven’t been into the...

The break between the last Bruins' game and the first day of training camp always seems like such a long time. It's only broken up by events such as the NHL draft and the first day of free agency. That's...

The Boston Bruins held their 3rd annual Bruins Celebrity Bartending at the Sports Grille last night. Technically, it was the organization’s 5th bartending event because I can remember former Bruins defenseman Nick Boynton working the first two. Last night it...

From the Blackberry: Cam Neely was named vice president of the Bruins today. I received the email on my cell so I can't post a link right now as I am not anywhere near my laptop. I will check in...

I was glancing through Sports Illustrated today and found an advertisement for Crocs, and it caught my eye. Actually, the sports logos caught my eye, especially the NHL one. That's right. Crocs come in NHL team colors, and you can...

After reading a week ago that defenseman Mark Stuart would be arriving last week to participate in informal skates with other players starting this week, I was excited for this week. Knowing hockey players are making their way back to...

In my post earlier, I forgot to mention that on page three of the sports section in today's Globe, there was a half-page ad featuring a photo of Tim Thomas making a save on Vincent Lecavalier (probably during a shootout)...

A quick glance around the NHL internet today showed some interesting stories. Michael Peca signed with the Columbus Blue Jackets. - This must have been the Columbus Blue Jackets news I heard on the radio before the station was changed....

A couple of weeks ago, I received an email from a source that said the Bruins were up to something. There were some players' names mentioned, but nothing concrete and mostly hypothetical. This week, there is a rumor that surfaced...

I am not used to the Bruins making transaction waves in July. Outside of signing free agents, there should be no news until August, when I’m ready to post about things and start getting back into the hockey mode. Why...

The Bruins have been a hot topic among me and my Bruins fan friends this week. With the schedule being released on Wednesday, there have been some preliminary plans being talked about. But there was another sub-topic being talked about...

I can tell you what I have missed over the past week or so. Five days ago, the Bruins re-signed defenseman Bobby Allen, who was an unrestricted free agent. The Bruins also agreed to terms with forward prospect Byron Bitz....

A lot of things fell into my lap late last week and my schedule got a whole lot of crazy going on in it, which is causing the lack of posting. I am starting some classes this week, which will...

I received an email from a Bruins source today with the roster of the upcoming prospects camp that begins on Sunday. First round draft pick from this year's draft, Zach Hamill, is on the roster to attend. The full list...

The Boston Bruins seem to be heading down the right track towards the start of the 2007-2008 season. Over the weekend, they acquired by definition a number one goaltender in Manny Fernandez, kept all of their current roster players and...

I think the absurd heat that is hitting the Northeast is making the hockey world crazy! I come back from a quick walk to the mailbox and a delicious turkey sandwich lunch to find that the Bruins fired assistant general...

Looking back on the NHL draft weekend, I ended up liking the format of the first round on Friday night with the remaining rounds on Saturday afternoon. I am all in favor of more Bruins draft parties because the first...

It may only be me, but it feels like there are a lot more trade rumors floating around this year than there were last year. At the very least, involving the Bruins. The most heard rumor going around is the...

For the first time since I have been a fan, the NHL draft will be starting on Friday night and continuing on Saturday with rounds 2-7. I will be attending the Bruins draft party tomorrow because I'm all about hanging...

I am blogging at this late hour not for the sake of blogging, but to post actual and relevant information about the Bruins. First on the agenda are the Bruins calling a press conference scheduled for 10:30 a.m. It could...

News broke this evening that Bruins coach Dave Lewis was relieved of his coaching duties of the Bruins. The lack of internet connection forces me to post from my cell phone. The assistant coach not named Doug Houda was also...
