The History of the Boston Bruins

[Ludwig Fell Down]

I worked this game in a previous life Getting the TV38 truck to Quebec was always 'fun' dealing with Northern Maine roads

Le Cosilee was an electric venue - Fred Cusick, Dave Shea and Sean McDonough call the action from 1986 - enjoy

One of my biggest sports regrets is not seeing a Habs - Nords game at Le Colissee

In my opinion, that was the best rivalry in the NHL after Bruins-Canadiens.

I don't see the Z thread, so I thought I'd post.

It's as worthy as anything else here.

Lol those skates

I almost didn't post this because of Bob Lobel's repeated, extremely annoying and uncharacteristic interruptions of the great Richard Johnson, curator of the New England Sports Museum and co-author of "The Boston Bruins: Blood, Sweat and 100 Years."

I don't know what got into Lobel. (He even said to himself aloud, "Shut up Bob and let Richard talk," yet continued to interrupt with lame, time wasting questions and observations.)

In the event, Richard Johnson, whom I first encountered as an incisive commentator for the surprisingly comprehensive 2009 DVD "The History of the Boston Bruins," previously posted and free to view on YouTube,

Last night's draft lottery was a bummer but to cheer you up just listen to the story of Gerry Cheevers greatest game. Cheesie is just hillarious

start at 17.20

Eddie Shore is the most underrated player in NHL history and I know that because he's never brought up in the GOAT discussion even though he should be.

Four Hart Trophies as a defenseman.

True, there was no Norris Trophy at the time, but to date, only Wayne Gretzky and Gordie Howe have won the Hart more times than Eddie Shore.

The more time passes, the more thankful I am for 2011. I have no recollection of the ‘70 and ‘72 championships, and it would suck having the Bruins’ last iconic achievement almost 60 years in the rear view mirror.

My Parents were at the game. Lots of bad pictures (I'm sure affected by many adult beverages) Here is one right after the goal.

Crazy that it takes until mid June to finally crown a champion. When does it end? How long before the plauers greed catches up with corporate greed and there's only a month long off season?

What "player's greed"? NHL players don't get paid for the playoffs.

Did you really just blame the players for greed?

I'd wager they'd all prefer a shorter season even if it means a bit of a pay cut. It's the owners who never would.

Not that long.
