BRUINS-SHARKS – SUNDAY AT 8:30 P.M. ET ON NBCSN

Boston (29-23-6, 58 pts) is in third place in the Atlantic Division and has won three consecutive games since Bruce Cassidy took over as head coach. The first of those games was a 6-3 victory against the Sharks, as David Pastrnak scored twice and Patrice Bergeron added a goal and three assists. San Jose is coming off a 6-5 overtime loss to Florida on NBCSN’s Wednesday Nightcap and is led by defenseman Brent Burns, who is tied for second in the NHL in points (61).

Randy Hahn (play-by-play), Andy Brickley (analyst), and Bret Hedican (‘Inside-the-Glass’) will call Bruins-Sharks from SAP Center in San Jose,​

Good to have hockey back. This week felt especially long...

Yay a game thread!! Something else to talk about!

The Panthers are surging and the Bruins need to keep their momentum....I know how I feel, that this week has taken all the positivity I had right out of me, watching others get points. I hope the Bruins can pick up where they left off.

First game wins for teams coming out of the bye hasn`t been great so far this year I was reading (sorry, don`t have the stats), probably due to a bit of rust or lack of game action.

Sharkies play tonight in Phoenix so maybe that will help balance things out

 

[Krupp]

Go figure that the game is at 8:30....

when I have to get up at 4 that very next morning for work.....

Maybe I just won't go to sleep.

As little levity while we await the Sharks. Former Bruin who was a favourite whipping target in these parts says don't cry for me, life is very good these days. He doesn't need a subscription to SI's much anticipated annual ogle fest.

Sharks D has been leaky of late- great opportunity for us to pick up another win

 

[CombatOnContact]

What's the record for teams first game coming off their bye week?

 

[13Hockey]

What's the record for teams first game coming off their bye week?

Like 3-16

It's something like that but teams have an absolutely horrible record off bye weeks this year

I have to get used to this now.

 

[Ladyfan]

8:30 PM sure beats 10:30.PM

My company actually gave us Monday off...we don't usually get it !

Please win. My daughter was here for the last 3 wins (getting to and from the games was a bit difficult) and will be attending the 3 games in Calif. Maybe she is good luck ??

HERE WE GO BRUINS...HERE WE GO

bye week came at an awful time for us. Hate it.

I hate that it's a thing at all. Season already started later due to that World Cup and they just had a chunk of time off for the all star game.

As expected. Kid looked pretty good in his first two games.

I don't know what you were expecting.

The fact that the Bruins are still in 7th is a miracle.
