The Boston Bruins lost in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs and I don’t know anyone that was expecting that, especially after General Manager Don Sweeney went all-in at trade deadline to give his team the best chance of winning the Stanley Cup. Why did they fail after a record setting regular season?Continue reading “Don Sweeney Has a Lot of Work to do This Off Season”

Bruins Ink Pavel Zacha to a 4 Year $19 Million Deal
Following the Bruins 4-3 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs at TD Garden Saturday night, the team announced they have signed Pavel Zacha to a 4-year, $19 million deal that carries an average annual value of $4.75 million.

They Said the Bruins Start Was Not Sustainable
Allow me to back track a bit because the title is not entirely fitting. It has more to do with some (a lot) of the negativity towards the Bruins 16-2-0 start and the next 18 games.

Will the Real Pavel Zacha Please Stand Up
I for one was excited when the Boston Bruins traded Eric Haula for Pavel Zacha.

Bruins Acquire Pavel Zacha from the Devils for Eric Haula
In a surprise (?) move, Boston Bruins General Manager Don Sweeney sent Eric Haula to the New Jersey Devils in exchange for Pavel Zacha. Interesting enough, both can play center or left wing. The move clears Haula’s $2.375 million cap hit from the books. However, Zacha is a restricted free agent with arbitration attached afterContinue reading “Bruins Acquire Pavel Zacha from the Devils for Eric Haula”
