In Saturday’sContinue reading “BOSTON BRUINS MONDAY MORNING PROSPECT UPDATE WEEK ENDING NOVEMBER 7, 2021”
WEDNESDAY MAILBAG: NOVEMBER 3, 2021
I thought I would try this out and see where it takes us. If the questions keep coming regularly and there is interest, I will continue on with this. You can ask questions about the Bruins, their prospects, the cap, anything Bruins related. Twitter lovers can hit me up with questions there, if you areContinue reading “WEDNESDAY MAILBAG: NOVEMBER 3, 2021”
GAUGING THE BRUINS DEFENSE ONE WEEK AT A TIME OCTOBER 31, 2021
Let me start by continuing were I left off last week: Shot attempts versus shots on goal. I am beginning here because it is an area where Coach Bruce Cassidy wanted an improvement on and while successful in the early part of the season despite not showing up on the scoreboard, the blueliners took aContinue reading “GAUGING THE BRUINS DEFENSE ONE WEEK AT A TIME OCTOBER 31, 2021”
BOSTON BRUINS MONDAY MORNING PROSPECT UPDATE WEEK ENDING: OCTOBER 31, 2021
Yes, there are several players I haven’t touched on yet, but it is a long hockey season and I will get to them more than once throughout their hockey seasons. For now, I am circling back to Matias Mantykivi, the Bruins sixth round pick at the 2019 NHL Entry Draft. There were a handful ofContinue reading “BOSTON BRUINS MONDAY MORNING PROSPECT UPDATE WEEK ENDING: OCTOBER 31, 2021”
WHATEVER HAPPENED TO?
It was June 26, 2010 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles California. There were 16 picks remaining in the seventh round when the Boston Bruins were on the clock to make their selection. The name they called was Maxim Chudinov then of the Cherepovets Severstal of the Kontinental Hockey League. The Bruins had aContinue reading “WHATEVER HAPPENED TO?”
GAUGING THE BRUINS DEFENSE ONE WEEK AT A TIME OCT 24, 2022
There’s been a subtle little difference in how the Boston Bruins blue liners operate this season and the credit goes to Coach Bruce Cassidy. And unless you are looking for it, you will barely notice. The defenders are a little quicker at retrieving pucks than the 13 defensemen Cassidy was forced to use due toContinue reading “GAUGING THE BRUINS DEFENSE ONE WEEK AT A TIME OCT 24, 2022”
BOSTON BRUINS MONDAY MORNING PROSPECT UPDATE WEEK ENDING OCTOBER 24, 2021
It was November of 2017. I had some extra time that season so, I thought I would spend all those extra hours scouring the Ontario Junior Hockey League to see if anyone piqued my interest. On that cold November night in Pickering Ontario, I came across a 17-year-old defenseman playing for the Pickering Panthers. AsContinue reading “BOSTON BRUINS MONDAY MORNING PROSPECT UPDATE WEEK ENDING OCTOBER 24, 2021”
WHATEVER HAPPENED TO?
In the first whatever happened to series I looked at Jakob Forsbacka-Karlsson, who as of today, is still looking for somewhere to play hockey. I hate to be the one to rehash old wounds (for many they are still very fresh) and bring up that infamous 2015 NHL Entry Draft. But my venture today leadsContinue reading “WHATEVER HAPPENED TO?”
BOSTON BRUINS MONDAY MORNING PROSPECTS UPDATE WEEK ENDING: OCTOBER 17, 2022
Today, the focus is on the two players the Bruins selected from the Ontario Hockey League at the 2021 National Hockey League Entry Draft. Brett Harrison, selected in the third round, 85th overall and Ryan Mast selected in the 6th round, 181st overall. This week I am doing things a little differently.
