BOSTON -- Just about every kid who ever laced up skates while growing up in Massachusetts has dreamed of one day playing for the Bruins. At one point, that was a realistic goal for the top talent the state produced. As recently as the 2005-06 season, the Bruins had eight Bay State natives play for them, not to mention a coach (Mike Sullivan), general manager (Mike O'Connell) and assistant GM (Jeff Gorton) all from Massachusetts. But since Peter Chiarelli took over in 2006, there have been just two players -- defensemen Paul Mara and Bobby Allen –- from Massachusetts to...

Via Pro Sports Daily  |  February 14, 2012
If one is wondering why Brad Marchand wasn't featured in the Boston Bruins' commemorative Stanley Cup DVD, he provided an answer to Sports Illustrated. Long story short, Marchand admitted that he was too drunk to be interviewed. Three days after the Bruins won their first Stanley Cup in 39 years, the team celebrated at Foxwoods Casino in Connecticut. While each player shared...

Brad Marchand wasn’t in the Bruins’ Stanley Cup DVD because he was drunk

Via Larry Brown Sports  |  February 14, 2012
Boston Bruins forward Brad Marchand played a big part in the team winning its first Stanley Cup in 39 years last season, tallying five goals and two assists in the Finals against the Canucks. And yet, somewhat curiously, he was nowhere to be found in the team’s commemorative DVD. Now we have the reason: he was intoxicated. Three days after Boston closed out the series in June...

Tim Thomas, Benoit Pouliot Lead Bruins in 'Road Trip Rally' Win Over Canadiens

Via NESN.com  |  February 15, 2012
Maybe a road trip is just what the Bruins need to right themselves. The B's pulled out a much-needed win in Montreal after coughing up a 3-1 lead in the third period, but the Black and Gold prevailed in a shootout thanks to Tim Thomas' stellar goaltending. Benoit Pouliot's highlight-reel goal against his former team helped too, and the Bruins began their six-game road...

Bad Blood Between Bruins, Canadiens Translating Into Actual Blood During Early Play

Oh, that's right. These teams don't like each other. The Bruins have been bloodied up early against the Habs while battling in Montreal, with Zdeno Chara and David Krejci both suffering the wrath of stray equipment. NESN Nation's Dan Duquette isn't expecting such actions to go unpunished as the two rivals play on. You better buckle in, this could turn ugly. Join NESN...

54. New York Rangers @ Boston Bruins. It's a Hockey Lovefest!

Via Days of Y'Orr  |  February 14, 2012
There are a lot of people calling this game a "must win" game. I must be missing the point of "must win" games. A "must win" game is if you're looking to get into a playoff spot or to hold an opponent back from overtaking your spot. If you look at the standings, Boston will end up in the top 3 of the Eastern Conference (barring a catastrophic meltdown...

BOSTON – The Bruins and Rangers meet for the second of four clashes this season between the Original Six rivals on Tuesday, but the Rangers won't be returning to Boston again unless the top two teams in the East face each other in the playoffs.

For as much hatred as there is in a rivalry that's 88 years old, let's not kid ourselves, the match-up's between the Boston Bruins and Montreal Canadiens in 2011-12 have been anything but heated.
