TEAMS: Boston Bruins, Tampa Bay Lightning, Columbus Blue Jackets, Anaheim Ducks
According to a recent article on Yahoo! Sports by Emma Harger, the Bruins are keeping quiet during the free agent frenzy. All ready we say goodbye to Joe Corvo, Benoit Pouliot, and Greg Zanon. Although I would have liked to see Pouliot return, I am not that upset with the trade. Pouliot showed some flashes of brilliance and at other times looked like he was clueless. As for Corvo, the guy was probably the worst defender in the league. The guy had no idea what was happening on the ice and was too much of a ***** to hit or put his body in front of the puck. As for Zanon, he was a good defender, but I don't mind him leaving. The Bruins have depth at defense, and with Hamilton most likely coming up, we should be all right. Even though Claude is not actively pursuing a top name player, I feel the Bruins need a big time play maker. This past post season we saw how the lack of a scoring presence affected us. I do not approve of getting Rick Nash unless we don't have to give up a lo...

Statistical Profile: Greg Zanon
Greg Zanon was the Avs second* move in the 2012 free agency day, but he's going to be the first guy I profile. (*Matt Carkner excepted)Let's start with some basics and work our way into the advanced stuff. Zanon's a difficult one to profile, since he was on two teams, sites like Behindthenet.ca don't do as well with players who played for 2 teams. Zanon's career...
Dougie Hamilton, Malcolm Subban Looking Forward to Applying Lessons Learned in Bruins Development Camp
WILMINGTON, Mass. -- Summer school is over, but the real education is just beginning. The Bruins wrapped up their sixth annual development camp Monday at Ristuccia Arena, closing the five-day camp with more power-skating drills in the morning followed by a final scrimmage. The White team prevailed 4-2 in that one to sweep the scrimmages that closed out the final two days of the camp...
Peter Chiarelli Expects Quiet Bruins Offseason as GM Tries to Keep Team Together (Video)
Just a year ago the Bruins were touting the Stanley Cup, the culmination of an incredible run through the playoffs. A bit removed from that success, the Bruins want to keep that same core in tact and believe that it will continue to have success moving forward. At least that's the official story from general manager Peter Chiarelli, who sees players like Tukka Rask and Tuukka...

But on the heels of a Friday conference with B's GM Peter Chiarelli confirming that the Bruins would be quiet when the clock struck noon on July 1st, the weekend didn't end without a few potential...

Happy Free Agent Day!
Today marks the free agent signing frenzy. Here's what we expect from the Peter Chiarelli and the Boston Bruins today:At most, a depth guy you never heard of (at most). Don't expect a big splash from Chia, not with a limited cap which currently stands at a tiny $277,857. Any signing would need a trade or two to make room before the season starts.Edit: We forgot about Savard...

Hurricanes Sign Joe Corvo
Going into free agency this year, there were two moves that I hoped Jim Rutherford would make. First, I wanted him to put a lot of focus on players who would give the Hurricanes a good bargain for his money. This meant looking for free agents who wouldn't cost a lot but had decent upside and could provide a decent amount of value. In addition to that, I wanted Rutherford to sign...
