The 21 year old has yet to know what the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs are like during his three-year career with the Islanders. His team has finished in the bottom five the past two years and is...
Marty Turco Getting Start in Goal, Torey Krug Making NHL Debut As Bruins Host Penguins
BOSTON – The Bruins will have a couple of new faces in the lineup Tuesday night against the Penguins. That's the luxury of having clinched the division title and second seed in the East on Sunday.

Bruins Push Toward With Playoffs With Statement Win Over Rangers in New York
The Bruins went into Madison Square Garden on Sunday night to take on the Eastern Conference's top team, playing their second game in as many days. Adding to that was the fact that the B's hadn't defeated the Rangers in their last five tries. However, Boston was able to turn in an all-around solid effort to get out of Gotham with a 2-1 win, and perhaps even more importantly...
Tyler Seguin, Brad Marchand in Race With Each Other to Reach 30 Goals, Lead Bruins in Category
BOSTON –- The Bruins wrapped up the Northeast Division title and the No. 2 seed in the East with Sunday's win over the Rangers, but there's still plenty to play for in the final three games of the regular season. That's especially true for a pair of linemates. Brad Marchand and Tyler Seguin each are three goals away from reaching 30 on the season. It's a mark only...
Overtime Victory by Bruins Offers Win-Win Scenario in Matchup of East's Top Teams (Video)
You might think that since the Bruins and Rangers could face each other in the playoffs later this year, they might try to hold back on each other and not give away any future plans. On Sunday, however, both teams have plenty to play for. The Bruins can lock up the Northeast Division -- and hopefully, eventually, the East's No. 2 seed -- with a win against New York. The Rangers...
Bruins clinch Northeast title, No. 2 seed

Brad Marchand Takes Feed From Tyler Seguin, Slips 27th Goal of Season Past Islanders' Al Montoya (Video)
Brad Marchand and Tyler Seguin are neck and neck when it comes to the team lead in goals this season. But that isn't stopping the duo from lending each other a hand. Seguin set up Marchand with a pass upon entering the offensive zone, and Marchand carried it into the slot area, eventually slipping the puck past Islanders goalie Al Montoya. The Islanders looked like they were...
Bruins top Rangers, sweep NY weekend
When you are already the defending Stanley Cup champions, it takes a whole lot more than a division title to really get the party started.
Tim Thomas survived a third-period barrage from the New York Rangers, and Boston held on for a 2-1 victory on Sunday night that clinched the Northeast Division for the Bruins.
It also kept the Rangers from wrapping up the No. 1 seed in the Eastern...
Ty Anderson: N.Y State of Mind: B's clinch Northeast behind weekend sweep
"Straight out the dungeons of a so-so division, where fake teams settle for lower seeds..."
OK, so maybe the Boston Bruins didn't have much to play for when they touched down in New York on Friday, but that won't make their weekend in the Empire State any less impressive.

The year of the champions?
Monday night was a good night for New York Ranger prospect Steven Fogarty (NYR 2011 3rd) and his Penticton Vees as they earned the right to play for the BCHL championship.
