The Boston Bruins were outclassed in Game 2, losing 6-1 to the Florida Panthers.

Before the National Hockey League Playoff series shifts to Boston for Game 3, Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren is breaking down the good, bad, and ugly from the Game 2 loss.

The Bruins were awful defensively and hung Jeremy Swayman out to dry, and weren't able to generate much in the way of offense either. But, they didn't roll over, highlighted by David Pastrnak dropping the gloves with Matthew Tkachuk.

It's now a best of 5 and the Bruins have home ice advantage. You can bet they'll be fired up for Game 3 on home ice.

The Boston Bruins statistically have the best chance of advancing to Round 2 of the National Hockey League's Stanley Cup Playoffs after a huge road win to begin their series with the Florida Panthers.

The vibes around the Bruins are off the charts at the moment, and they're embracing the underdog status they've been given in this series. Jeremy Swayman is unbeatable, depth guys are stepping up, they're healthy, and they've yet to get a lot of production out of David Pastrnak.

BUT the Panthers are a very good team and won the Atlantic Division for a reason, and it's entirely likely they'll come back, especially knowing they're not out of it until it's really over.

So, what's more likely - a Bruins or Panthers series win. Let's discuss and also preview Game 2 on today's episode of Locked on Boston Bruins.

The Boston Bruins could not have asked for a better start to their second round playoff series against the Florida Panthers.

Just 2 days after an emotional Game 7 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Boston Bruins were out there dropping 5 goals on Sergei Bobrovsky, and from some unlikely names like Justin Brazeau, Mason Lohrei, Morgan Geekie, and Brandon Carlo (whose wife gave birth to their son Crew THAT MORNING).

Depth scoring, Carlo's dad energy, and, of course, Jeremy Swayman's stellar play in net gave the Bruins a 1-0 series lead, restoring faith in the fanbase. Maybe this team can do it?

Also, full credit to Jim Montgomery for knowing when to push the pause button and helping his team regroup.

The vibes are great! Subscribe and make Locked on Bruins a daily listen!

David Pastrnak stepped up, alright. After being called out by Boston Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery after Game 6, Pastrnak broke through the Toronto Maple Leafs defense in Game 7 to score to overtime series winner off a beautiful set play executed by Hampus Lindholm.

Lindholm played one of his best games as a Bruin, adding an earlier game-tying goal and leading the team in shots, while Jeremy Swayman was near perfect once again, finishing with a .950 save percentage.

With that, the Bruins dispose of the Leafs and are off to the second round where they'll face the Florida Panthers.

Whatever happens moving forward, this has been a positive step forward for a group in transition.

For the second year in a row, the Boston Bruins have blown a 3-1 series lead. No team in NHL, NBA, or MLB history has done this in consecutive years.

Head coach Jim Montgomery directly called out David Pastrnak after a Game 6 loss, saying "Your best players need to be your best players this time of year." While he's not wrong, the Bruins also came out incredibly flat and have been outshot 23-3 in the first period over the past two games. That motivation needs to come from the top, putting the coach and captain Brad Marchand in the spotlight.

The team as a whole needs to step up to avoid a disastrous conclusion to the season - if they don't, the consequences could be job ending or core shaking.

The series isn't over yet, though! Game 7. Saturday. Please do the thing.

The Boston Bruins simply can't afford to blow another 3-1 series lead.

Expectations weren't sky high coming into this season, but the Bruins have exceeded them all along the way, building up a 3-1 series lead over a Toronto Maple Leafs club with Stanley Cup aspirations. But even in this transition season, the Bruins can't allow what happened last year in their series with the Florida Panthers to happen again.

No, the franchise won't crumble, but it'll raise all sorts of unnecessary noise and questions about the coach and the core, and could lead to over reactionary offseason decisions.

Finish the Maple Leafs by reverting back to what worked in Games 3 and 4 without worrying about whether Auston Matthews is playing or if Joseph Woll is in net.. Boston's best players simply need to be better than they were in Game 5 - is it finally time for David Pastrnak's big performance?

Faced with an opportunity to finish off a Toronto Maple Leafs team playing without Auston Matthews, the Boston Bruins were MIA to begin Game 5 and just couldn't get it together in an eventual OT loss.

Jim Montgomery is rightfully facing criticism for a couple lineup changes, but this game was lost because Boston's best players were not very good at all, aside from Jeremy Swayman.

Now, there's renewed hope in Toronto and seeds of doubt planted in Boston, even though the Bruins still have a 75% chance of advancing (per Moneypuck).

Can they regroup and get back to how they played in Toronto? Will David Pastrnak finally break out? Is it Linus Ullmark's turn in net.

Let's talk about it on a fresh episode of Locked on Boston Bruins - your favorite hockey team, every day.

Even with a commanding 3-1 series lead over a seemingly dead in the water Toronto Maple Leafs team, there are whispers of a 2023 collapse hanging around the Boston Bruins.

That's why it's imperative to win Game 5 tonight. Don't let there be any hope on the Toronto side, and don't let anyone around the Bruins start to think "here we go again" after last year's stunning loss to the Florida Panthers.

Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren discusses the ongoing Jeremy Swayman or Linus Ullmark question, taking a look at each player's mindset. And should Jim Montgomery consider some lineup changes with healthy bodies ready to get back in action?

And will David Pastrnak have his "history will be made" moment with a massive Game 5 performance? Let's hope so!

The Boston Bruins played a near perfect playoff road game to to a 3-1 series lead over a very flummoxed Toronto Maple Leafs squad on Saturday.

Captain Brad Marchand put in another fantastic performance and took the franchise lead in playoff goals as his team remained calm, poised, and solid throughout. Meanwhile, the Maple Leafs grew increasingly frustrated after not being able to crack Boston's defense, leading to some bickering on the bench.

Now, the Bruins can't at all get comfortable after what happened against the Florida Panthers last year. Jeremy Swayman will likely get Game 5, and has been nearly unbeatable.

Auston Matthews left this one with an illness, and the dysfunctional Leafs will be a big storyline heading into Game 5.

Please finish them.

All hail the rat king. Boston Bruins captain Brad Marchand stepped up HUGE in a 4-2 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs, helping his team gain a 2-1 series lead in the process.

Marchand scored a pair of goals while getting under Toronto's skin and in the Maple Leafs' heads. The series is far from over, but Marchand was everything you wanted to see from a Bruins' captain in this game.

A lot of the postgame discourse revolved around the officiating. While it wasn't great on both sides, Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren argues the refs didn't dictate the outcome and it's silly to suggest Marchand gets the benefit of the doubt from them.

Plus, Jeremy Swayman's .955 save percentage suggests it's time to pause the goalie rotation, Jake DeBrusk is hot at the right time, and some other lineup observations to close out today's show.

It's now a best of 5 series between the Boston Bruins and Toronto Maple Leafs, and there's a couple players facing pressure heading into Game 3: Brad Marchand and Mitch Marner.

Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren breaks down why Marner is feeling heat in Toronto, and how Marchand can write his own story as team captain by winning this playoff round.

Marchand is also pumping Toronto's tires. Is this legit respect of gamesmanship?

For the Bruins, Andrew Peeke is weeke to weeke and will be replaced by Mason Lohrei or Parker Wotherspoon.

Plus, some other potential lineup changes, including Jeremy Swayman very likely getting the start.

Boston Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery stuck to his goalie rotation and gave Linus Ullmark the start in Game 2. The reigning Vezina winner was very solid, but very few goalies could have stopped that Auston Matthews gamer winner.

The bigger issue for the Bruins? The Leafs are controlling play at 5 on 5, and they're not making life difficult enough for Toronto Maple Leafs goalie Ilya Samsonov.

Not winning both games with William Nylander missing seems like a big missed opportunity.

Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren is later joined by Mer Zylberberg to break down the series so far, and discuss with neither is overly confident in their respective teams.

The Boston Bruins decisively won Game 1 by a score of 5-1 over the Toronto Maple Leafs thanks to secondary scoring, power play success, and Jeremy Swayman's 35-save performance.

Jake DeBrusk led the way with 2 PPG's and an assist, while fellow DOn Sweeney draft picks John Beecher, Brandon Carlo, and Trent Frederic also scored.

Swayman was excellent in net, but a Game 2 start isn't guaranteed as head coach Jim Montgtomery might keep the rotation going by turning to Linus Ullmark.

Locked on Bruins host Ian McLaren argues the benefits of sticking with the hot hand and rotating goalies, arguing either way, the Bruins have an advantage in net.

Plus, some other keys to winning Game 2 and holding court on home ice, including a big game incoming from David Pastrnak?

Here we go again!

The Boston Bruins will host the Toronto Maple Leafs in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs on Saturday, so we're playing a round of "what's more likely?" on today's episode.

Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren argues Boston's goaltending makes it more likely that the Bruins will win, then counters that by arguing Toronto's "core 4" will be too much for the Bruins to handle, pushing the Maple Leafs to finally beat the black and gold.

Plus, a look at what Boston's lineup will look like for Game 1.

The Boston Bruins dropped their season finale against the Ottawa Senators on Tuesday, falling to second place in the Atlantic Division and setting up a first-round meeting with the Toronto Maple Leafs.

It would have been nice to see them win out and clinch first in the division, but they weren't going all out in games that essentially meant nothing in the grand scheme AND they avoid Tampa, the Atlantic team they've struggled against this season.

Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren looks back at expectations for this team heading into 2023-24, and breaks down a few reasons why they exceeded them in a so-called "transition" season.

Plus, Jack Edwards is retiring and Danton Heinen was robbed of the NESN 7th player award.

The Washington Capitals played like they were fighting for their playoff lives last night, while the Boston Bruins were playing like a team already in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. With the loss, the Bruins failed to clinch the Atlantic Division, setting up some stakes for Game 82.

Bigger picture? There's concerns over Brandon Carlo's status after he didn't play the final 15 minutes or so. Losing him to injury would be devastating.

The Bruins will either host the Tampa Bay Lightning or Toronto Maple Leafs in Round One, and we'll find out tonight as they host the Ottawa Senators in the regular season finale.

How are there only 2 games left in the regular season?

The Boston Bruins took care of business in Pittsburgh on Saturday, putting a dent in the Penguins' playoff hopes with a big road win in a postseason atmosphere in Pat Maroon's debut. The big story was Charlie Coyle and Pavel Zacha putting exclamation points on career years as the new top 6 centers.

Plus, why Mason Lohrei was sent to the AHL, a side gig for Don Sweeney, and a look at the week ahead, where the Bruins could clinch first in the Atlantic tonight with a win over the Washington Capitals.

Oh, and Lightning remains in the forecast.

Locked On Bruins podcast is your daily podcast that drops the puck and keeps you ahead of the game and the first to know the latest news, analysis, and insider info for the Boston Bruins and the National Hockey League.

The Boston Bruins have 3 games remaining, and a few things they need to figure out before the start of the Stanley Cup Playoffs: the power play, line combinations, and how to handle the goalie rotation.

Unfortunately, they appear destined to face the Tampa Bay Lightning in Round 1, and they've been the top special teams club since the trade deadline, with Andrei Vasilevskiy rounding into form. Gulp.

Somehow, the Bruins were ranked behind the Florida Panthers by Locked On hosts this week, despite recently beating Florida to sweep the season series. One can argue the Bruins are behind the New York Rangers and Carolina Hurricanes, but they clearly should be ranked first in the Atlantic.

A four-game winning streak came to an end last night as the Boston Bruins were defeated on home ice by the Carolina Hurricanes.

The highlight was a Michigan goal by Andrei Svechnikov as the Canes dunked on the Bruins and showed why they're a top team in the East. Maybe the Bruins will get a chance to punch back in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Beforehand, David Pastrnak, Charlie Coyle, Linus Ullmark, Jeremy Swayman, and Brad Marchand received team awards.

Plus, a look at where some Bruins and the city of Boston ranked on the latest NHLPA player poll.

The Boston Bruins are currently rolling, having won 4 in a row. As they prepare for tonight's game against the Carolina Hurricanes, head coach Jim Montgomery is mixing up the lines in an attempt to get Jake DeBrusk, and Trent Frederic going. Those key players have combined for 2 points over the past 7 games, which won't cut it come playoff time.

Is the answer putting them together on a line with Jesper Boqvist? We shall see, although Pat Maroon might soon be ready to claim a spot in the lineup too.

Locked on Bruins host Ian McLaren also updates the Eastern Conference Power Rankings and previews tonight's game against Carolina, one that will decide the season series between to the two clubs.

An overtime win over the Florida Panthers on Saturday gave the Boston Bruins a 5 point cushion atop the Atlantic Division with 4 games to go. Their reward will likely be a first round match with the Tampa Bay Lightning instead of one of the lesser teams ion the Eastern Conference.

That's because the current Stanley Cup Playoffs format is built to develop divisional rivalries instead of rewarding the top teams with favorable matches, and they need to revert back to the old 1-8 seeding.

Jesper Boqvist was the hero in Saturday's game, scoring his first career OT goal. What a depth signing he's been for the Bruins.

Plus, a look at the week ahead with only 2 games on the schedule.

The Boston Bruins are suddenly rolling, finishing off a fairly impressive 4-2 road trip with a massive 4-1 win over a very good Carolina Hurricanes squad.

The game was highlighted by captain Brad Marchand's 400th career goal, becoming the fifth player in franchiser history to reach that mark.

Danton Heinen continues to step up as well, and got a well deserved Masterton Trophy nod for sportsmanship and dedication to the game. Remember when he started the season without a contract?

Plus, Andrew Peeke is quietly cooking on the Bruins' 3rd defensive pairing, and they'll need that strong play to continue as they host the Florida Panthers on Saturday.

All this and more on a jam packed episode of Locked on Boston Bruins.

On April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will cross North America, passing over Mexico, United States, and Canada. It's a once in a lifetime event for people along the path of totality, where the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth, completely blocking the face of the Sun.

For many of us, the Boston Bruins winning the Stanley Cup has been a once in a lifetime event. What might Boston's path to totality look like in 2024? Would they be better off going through Toronto than Tampa? What about other parts of Florida? What obstacles lie in the Metro and out West?

The Bruins have a tough 3-game stretch coming up against the Carolina Hurricanes (x2) and the Florida Panthers. Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren ends today's episode by previewing tonight's tough one in Raleigh.

Less than a month ago, Linus Ullmark was (reportedly) going to be traded to the Los Angeles Kings before he invoked his no-trade clause. And thank goodness he did, because Ullmark has been lights out over his past handful of starts, widely outplaying Jeremy Swayman.

His latest feat was a shutout of Filip Forsberg, Roman Josi, and the recently red hot Nashville Predators. While there's an argument to be made for a goalie rotation in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, Ullmark is playing like a guy who wants to start Game 1 and not look back.

Plus, a look at who else stood out in the win over the Predators, injury concerns for Justin Brazeau, and a Cup Check! Where the do the Bruins rank among the top 5 teams in the NHL.

Nelson will report to Providence, while Maroon hopes to makes his game debut prior to the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

The Boston Bruins have struggled all season long with giving up late goals and dropping points with losses in overtime and shootouts.

On Saturday, they were tested big time with a 4-minute PK in overtime before Kevin Shattenkirk defeated the Washington Capitals in a shootout. He called it a turning of a corner for this club, which is huge as the Stanley Cup Playoffs draw near.

There's only 7 games left in the regular season, and there's some tough opponents on deck. That playoff mentality has to kick in now.

Plus, a look at potential playoff opponents. Guess what? It's going to be tough no matter who they play.

Catch all this and more on a fresh episode of Locked on Boston Bruins.

The Boston Bruins followed up a huge, emotional win against the Florida Panthers with a bit of a dud in Tampa. However, you could see this coming weeks ago as a scheduled "trap" game. The fact that it was close is a testament to the play of Linus Ullmark and the effort from Danton Heinen, one of the best value contracts in the NHL.

Looking at the standings and the Locked on Power Rankings, it's becoming apparent that the Lightning could be a legit first-round possibility for the Bruins.

Boston can clinch a playoff spot tonight if a couple other teams lose, and they'll be scoreboard watching with a couple days off before visiting the somehow playoff hopeful Washington Capitals.

Too many time this season we've seen the Boston Bruins give up a late tying goal and lose a game in overtime. How many of us expected the same with 2 minutes to go in last night's game against the Florida Panthers?

The Bruins, however, erased 3 separate one-goal deficits, got the go ahead goal in the 3rd, and held on in what could be a defining effort for this club.

Full credit to Brad Marchand for stepping up on several fronts, to David Pastrnak, Trent Frederic, Pavel Zacha, and Charlie McAvoy for scoring, and to the defense for locking things down late.

No rest for the weary, though, as the Bruins will be in Tampa to take on the Lightning tonight.

Catch all the latest on the black and hold on today's episode of Locked on Boston Bruins.

Boston Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery interrupted practice with some swears and sprints on Monday. He said he "hated" how the Bruins ended Saturday's loss to the Philadelphia Flyers, and how they began the practice session.

With a huge game tonight against the Florida Panthers, Montgomery doesn't believe his squad is ready for the playoffs.

Is that on him, or on the players? A bit of both, and if things don't change, another early exit could be coming.

Plus, a preview of the game tonight in Florida, where James van Riemsdyk appears set to be a healthy scratch. What's going on with him?

The Boston Bruins started a tough 6-game road trip with a loss to the more desperate Philadelphia Flyers, and tt was a reminder they can't coast into the postseason.

The Bruins are 1 of 7 teams within a point of first overall, but the remaining schedule is pretty tough, including games this week in Florida, Tampa, and Washington.

Positioning doesn't quite matter as anything can happen in the playoffs, but you want to be heading in playing solid hockey, and that wasn't it on Saturday.

Plus, some news on prospects Fabian Lysell and Riley Duran.

Five-time Grammy Award winner Celine Dion surprised the Boston Bruins locker room by reading the Bruins starters before their game against the New York Rangers at TD Garden.

She was in the stands for a 5-2 loss, but our hearts will go one because the Bruins still have a 3-point lead in the Atlantic Division.

Locked on Bruins host Ian McLaren breaks down what went wrong in the loss, discusses whether there's reason to be concerned about Jeremy Swayman's recent play, and previews Saturday's tilt with the Philadelphia Flyers.

The NHL could use a reignited rivalry between the Boston Bruins and the New York Rangers.

They'll meet up tonight for a third and final regular season meeting, but an Eastern Conference showdown would really spark it up.

The current divisional format makes it difficult to get rivalries going outside a small circle. Time to go back to the 1-8 playoff format.

Locked on Bruins host Ian McLaren previews tonight's tilt between the Bruins and Rangers, and updates the Eastern Conference Power Rankings.

David Pastrnak was showered with hats and a bear coat after scoring 3 goals on the Ottawa Senators in a 6-2 win for the Boston Bruins.

Locked on Bruins host Ian McLaren looks at what Pastrnak has accomplished, the gap between first and second in player points on this team, and where the Bruins are in the standings, and argues 88 should be one of the top candidates for the Hart Trophy as NHL MVP this season.

Plus, Justin Brazeau scored a pair and is vying for a bigger role, while Bruins fans debate whether or not the Presidents' Trophy curse will rear its ugly head once again this season.

It would be quite an accomplisment in what was meant to be a transitional Centennial season, but probably won't matter either way.

The Ottawa Senators came into this season with playoff aspirations, while most believed the Boston Bruins would take several steps back after a historic regular season in 2022-23. As they get set to meet tonight, the Bruins are in 1st overall while the Sens won't sniff the postseason.

The biggest difference between these two teams? Goaltending.

Locked on Bruins host Ian McLaren digs into the two tandems and the underlying numbers to argue just how important goaltending has been for Boston this season.

Plus, a wider look at the top 5 teams around the NHL and where the Bruins rank among them in this week's Cup check.

The Boston Bruins bent but did not break in Saturday's game against the Philadelphia Flyers, which hasn't always been the case so far this season.

That came on the heels of an overtime win over the Montreal Canadiens courtesy of a Jake DeBrusk goal.

DeBrusk has been red hot since the NHL trade deadline, a span in which the Bruins have gone 3-1. Others are contributing as well, including Linus Ullmark, Andrew Peeke, and the center duo of Charlie Coyle and Pavel Zacha.

Host Ian McLaren takes a look at the Bruins since the NHL trade deadline, as well as what's on deck for Boston this week.

The Boston Bruins are in Montreal to take on the Canadiens, and Andrew Peeke will make his black and gold debut with Matt Grzelyck out due to illness.

James van Riemsdyk is also under the weather, prompting the emergency recall of Johnny Beecher. He should stay up, in the opinion of this podcast.

In honour of this rivalry and the Bruins' centennial, we're looking back at the pivotal 2011 first round playioff series that led to the Bruins' Cup win.

Plus, a preview of tonight's game.

The Boston Bruins added two pieces prior to the NHL trade deadline: forward Pat Maroon and defenseman Andrew Peeke.

These aren't gamechangers necessarily, but they could make a positive impact for various reasons, Peeke specifically is a more long term add, and hopefully he can shake off what was a pretty disastous season with the CO,umbus Blue Jackets prior to the trade.

Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren discusses where both could could fit in the lineup down the stretch.

Plus, the Bruins signed Drew Bavaro from Notre Dame on Tuesday. Who is this guy?

The underlying nuimbers suggest the Boston Bruins deserved better on Monday night in a 5-1 loss to the St. Louis Blues, but a sluggish start did them in. That kind of effort won't cut it once the games really start to matter, but maybe the Bruins are lowkey trying to pass the Presidents' Trophy curse to the Florida Panthers.

It's time for the weekly Cup check, where we look at the top 5 teams around the NHL and where the Brujins rank among them.

Plus, Locked on Bruins host Ian McLaren offers the ideal playoff lineup for the Bruins.

Boston Bruins goaltendender Linus Ullmark allegedly said no to a trade that would have sent him to the Los Angeles Kings on Friday, and that's well within his rights and completely understandable. He then went out and had one of his best games of the season Saturday against the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren discusses Ullmark's decision, how general manager Don Sweeney was trying to improve the team, which we can't fault him for either.

Plus, a look at what Pat Maroon and Andrew Peeke bring to the table, how the Penguins were beat, and what's next, beginning tonight with a game against the St. Louis Blues.

The Boston Bruins made 2 trades prior to Friday's NHL deadline, adding Pat Maroon from the Minnesota WIld and Andrew Peeke from the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Say goodbye to Jakub Zboril, a 3rd round pick in 2027, and maybe a 6th in 2026.

What DIDN'T happen was a Linus Ullmark trade, as he reportedly said no to moving to Los Angeles. We don't know the possible return, but the goalie hug lives on for a few more months at least.

On a night where several 2011 Stanley Cup champions reunited, the Boston Bruins beat the Toronto Maple Leafs by a score of 4-1 for the second time this week.

The Bruins are now 2nd overall, and have big decisions to make prior to the NHL trade deadline.

Could Linus Ullmark and/or Jake DeBrusk be on the way out? Is it even worth trying to keep up with the Florida Panthers and Cariolina Hurricanes, not to mention teams out West?

Enjoy this deadline preview episode, and there will be another later to recap whatever Don Sweeney decides to do.

The Boston Bruins blew another lead and lost in overtime, but please remember they beat the Toronto Maple Leafs the night before and taking 3 points from back to back games including the Edmonton Oilers is no small feat.

It did highlight the need for a faceoff guy for defensive zone situations, and there's reports out there that the Bruins might be back in on Elias Lindholm as the Vancouver Canucks circle in on Jake Guentzel from the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Things are heating up on the trade market as the Florida Panthers got Vladimir Tarasenko for peanuts.

All that and more on a brand new episode of Locked on Boston Bruins.

The Boston Bruins moved on from one of their worst efforts of the season Saturday on Long Island with a massive 4-1 win over the Maple Leafs in Toronto on Monday.

Pavel Zacha scored twice amid injury concerns and Jake DeBrusk continues his trend of scoring big goals in Toronto while Jeremy Swayman stood tall in net with 32 saves.

His partner Linus Ullmark unwittingly caused a stir by not being seen on the bench. Many wondered if he was being shipped out, but it was simply a matter of lack of space.

Still, the New Jersey Devils are reportedly interested ahead of Friday's NHL trade deadline.

Up next for the Bruins? A quick turnaround as they host the Edmonton Oilers tonight.

The Boston Bruins put in one of their worst efforts of the season on Saturday against the New York Islanders. They've got 3 games remaining prior to the NHL trade deadline, including 2 against a likely first round playoff opponent in the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Word is they're looking to make a "hockey trade" before Friday's 3pm deadline, meaning player out, player in. Locked on Bruins host Ian McLaren lists 6 players who should not be deal under any circumstances, with everyone else on the table.

Plus, a preview of tonight's game against the Maple Leafs.

The Boston Bruins FINALLY recorded a regulation win.

The Bruins defeated Bruce Cassidy's Vegas Golden Knights thanks to Mason Lohrei's 3rd period power play goal. It was Boston's second regulation win in February, and it came in another game in which they blew multiple leads.

But, Morgan Geekie's first career hat trick ultimately wasn't wasted.

Boston could use a scoring boost. Is it time to give Fabian Lysell a shot?

Plus, a preview of Saturday's game against the New York Islanders.

The NHL trade deadline is set for March 8, and Jake DeBrusk is feeling anxious about it.

He's an impending unrestricted free agent and there's been no movement on a contract extension, meaning it's possible he could be dealt before next Friday's deadline.

Matt Grzelcyk is feeling the worru too, by the way.

So, what should the Bruins do with DeBrusk? Re-sign? Trade? Wait and see?

Plus, Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren udpates the Atlantic Division Power Rankings, where the Florida Panthers are taking over.

This episode ends with a preview of tonight's game against Bruce Cassidy's Vegas Golden Knights.

The NHL Trade Deadline is fast approaching, and the Boston Bruins are in an interesting spot.

They're a playoff team near the top of the Eastern Conference standings, so you'd think they'd be primed to add. However, they have limited capital to work with, and there's real questions to be asked about whether the Bruins are legit Stanley Cup contenders.

So, will they be buyers or sellers? Will they add a center, winger, or defenseman, will they sell pending UFAs, or could they float Jake DeBrusk or Linus Ullmark?

Let's discuss on a brand new episode of Locked on Boston Bruins.

The Boston Bruins blew another 3rd period lead and lost in a shootout to the Seattle Kraken on Monday. They were also down in the 3rd and tied things up to get a point at the end of a 4-game road trip.

You can either be mad about the loss, or be impressed by their resilience, but it's all becoming a pattern for this team that underscores reality: this roster isn't primed for greatness.

Look at the top teams in the NHL and it's easy to see the Bruins probably aren't really in that conversation, and that's ok. This was always meant to be a transition year.

Kraken recap, Cup check, and what is this team, really - it's a brand new episode of Locked on Boston Bruins.

The Boston Bruins got off to a great start in Vancouver, but the Canucks erased a 2-0 lead and won in overtime.

The Bruins now have 8 losses after holding a lead in the 3rd period, which leads thr NHL. That's pretty concerning considering how last season ended.

What can they do about it, though? They could use a better faceoff man, someone to clear the front of the net, and someone who can add some pop offensively. That'll all be hard to come by before the trade deadline, which is only 2 weeks away.

Up next is a date with the Seattle Kraken, which is previewed to end today's episode of Locked on Boston Bruins.

Can our hearts handle 4 to 7 games like that in June?

A Stanley Cup Final vs. the Edmonton Oilers would be a dream series, but the Boston Bruins mst learn from blowing two leads last night, including a 4-1 lead they lost then recovered before Edmonton tied it once again.

Thankfully, Charlie McAvoy's goal of the year candidate earned them an extra point.

The Bruins lost Matt Grzelcyk to injury early in this one, and Hampus Lindholm is also week-to-week. Mason Lohrei stepped up huge, but it could impact their quick turnaround as they're set to play tonight in Calgary.

Catch all this and more on a jam packed episode of Locked on Boston Bruins, and subscribe to become an EVERY DAY listener.

The NESN 7th player award has been a hot topic on social media lately, so Locked on Boston Bruins is making an official endorsement on today's show.

Plus, host Ian McLaren offers up three ways the Bruins can get back on track following a subpar homestand beginning tonight in Edmonton: secondary scoring, goaltending, and mobility on defense.

Let's preview that game against the Oilers as well.

The Boston Bruins have not been great since the NHL All Star Break, earning only 6 of a possible 14 points over a 7-game homestand.

They're heading to Alberta on a high note, though, after beating the Dallas Stars in a shotoout on Monday.

How did they do it? A new look 4th line featuring Justin Brazeau, Jesper Boqvist, and Anthony Richard stepped up, the team rode the high from celebrating Brad Marchand's 1000th game, and goaltening was key once again.

The Bruins also made some roster moves as they travel to Edmonton to take on the Oilers on Wednesday.

Can they get back to winning, or are they destined to be overtaken by the Florida Panthers?

A 4-1 loss at the hands of the Seattle Kraken on Thursday dropped the Boston Bruins to 1-3-1 since the All-Star Break.

The main issues are lack of scoring (1.6 goals per game over that span) and a penalty kill that's allowing 1 goal for every 3 opportunities.

The good news is they're outshooting the opposition recently, and perhaps it's a scheduled swoon planned by natural regression.

There are ways to boost the offense, though, beginning with recalling John Beecher and Fabian Lysell.

Plus, let's preview Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Kings.

It's going to be very difficult for Don Sweeney to add at the trade deadline this season.

Let's consider the example of Adam Henrique of the Anaheim Ducks, and several factors that would prohibit Boston from acquiring the versatile forward.

It's also time to update the Atlantic Division Power Rankings - how long until the Florida Panthers take over top spot?

Plus, a preview of Thursday's game against the Seattle Kraken.

Brad Marchand's 1000th game wasn't a complete success, but it was a big improvement over the Boston Bruins previous performance.

The Bruins outplayed the Tampa Bay Lightning and erased a 2-0 lead thanks to a couple of primary assists from the Captain. Andrei Vasilevskiy made a huge stop on Marchand in OT and earned his etam an extra point in the shootout.

Marchand reflected on the milestone, and says he's nowhere near finished because he's still got some goals to accomplish.

Another Cup would be nice, right? Ian McLaren finishes the pod with some Valentine's Day love for a team that's exceeding expectations this season.

15 years ago, few expected Boston Bruins forward to be hitting 1000 games as captain of the original six club.

That milestone will be reached in tonight's game against the Tampa Bay Lightning, and Ian McLaren argues Marchand's career trajectory is a remarkable one that will culminate with a Hall of Fame nod.

Tuesday's also Cup check day, a look at the top 5 teams around the NHL and where the Bruins rank among them.

For the second time in less than a week, the Boston Bruins were booed off the ice.

The latest booing came after a listless loss to the Washington Capitals in which Matt Grzelcyk was assessed a major and a game misconduct for spearing Max Pacioretty. It was a costly act both in terms of the final score and the defenseman's wallet.

It wasn't the most egregious act of the weekend, though, thanks to Toronto's Morgan Rielly.

Plus, a look at the week ahead, where Boston't attention will turn to the Western Conference for several games.

The win was fueled by a pair of shorthanded goals, put the Bruins back in a share of first overall, and provided a tantalizing preview of what could be come June.

Plus, Ian McLaren discusses why Anthony Richard was recalled over Georgii Merkulov or Fabian Lysell, and also previews Saturday's game against the Washington Capitals.

The Boston Bruins got some bad news as rookie center Matthew Poitras will be out 5 months after undergoing shoulder surgery Wednesday.

The Bruins will likely go the internal route to shore up the depth, perhaps recalling Johnny Beecher or Georgii Merkulov. Poitras had been shifted to the wing recently anyways, with Charlie Coyle, Pavel Zacha, Morgan Geekie, and Jesper Boqvist locking down the middle.

They couuld also look to the trade market, where Adam Henrique of the Anaheim Ducks could be in play.

Host Ian McLaren also breaks down this week's Atlantic Division Power Rankings and previews tonight's HUGE game against the Vancouver Canucks.

The Calgary Flames played like a "pack of coyotes" in taking down the lion that is the Boston Bruins last night.

Boston lacked a lot of things that have made them successful this season, and maybe they deserved the boos based on this one game sample. They didn't even really come to captain Brad Marchand's aid when he was cross checked in the face!

But overall, this team has exceeded all expectations, as Locked on Bruins host Ian McLaren discusses in this week's mailbag segment.

Should they make changes before the March 8 trade deadline? A better question is can they, really?

David Pastrnak isn't happy about being excluded from the NHL's first foray back into international best-on-best hockey since 2016.

While he will represent Czechia at the 2026 Winter Olympics, the NHL will host a 4 Nations Face-Off in 2025 that won't feature Pastrnak's home and native land.

Locked on Bruins host Ian McLaren also performs the weekly Cup check, assessing where the Bruins rank among the NHL's top 5 teams.

Plus, a preview of tonight's tilt with the Calgary Flames.

Boston Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery and pop icon Justin Bieber will forever be linked in hockey history after co-coaching Team Matthews to a win at the 2024 NHL All-Star Game.

Yes, that's an actual thing.

David Pastrnak got the better of Jeremy Swayman in round one, but it was the coach who literally got the last laugh.

The Bruins were back at practice on Sunday, where Jake DeBrusk wants to sign a contract extension and Brad Marchand wants to be part of Team Canada in 2026.

Plus, a look at the week ahead for the Bruins as they start a 7-game homestand.

David Pastrnak and Jeremy Swayman were selected to different squads in the NHL All-Star Draft on Thursday in en event that was fairly bland. It was Baby Freya who stole the show, really, while the NHL continues to drop the ball in terms of making Pastrnak a face of the league.

This event doesn't seem to hold as much weight as it used to, and host Ian McLaren makes a couple suggestions for how to improve it.

There likely won't be an All-Star even next year, though, as it will reportedly be replaced by a Four Nations event ahead of a return to Olympic play for NHL players. There again, Pastrnak gets the short end of the stick.

The Boston Bruins won't be trading for Elias Lindholm. The Calgary Flames sent him to the Vancouver Canucks on Wednesday for a package the Bruins simply could not match.

Lindholm, though, could still be an option in free agency if he doesn't sign an extension in Vancouver. Is he even what the Bruins needm, though?

Plus, a look at where Jeremy Swayman comes in on the Vezina Trophy Power Rankings, and what competitions David Pastrnak will be participating in at All-Star weekend.

The Boston Bruins shook of a loss to Carolina on Wednesday by beating the Ottawa Senators in overtime on Thursday.

Brad Marchand is now 5th all time in Bruins goals after the OT winner.

Boston did couch up a 2-0 lead after being called for a slew of penatlies, and David Pastrnak not playing in OT maybe signals it's a good time for the bye week.

But first, a Saturday matinee against the reeling Philadelphia Flyers.

Despite captain Brad Marchand's efforts, the Boston Bruins lost to the Carolina Hurricanes last night, ending a 9-game point streak.

A new line of Marchand, Charlie Coyle, and Trent Frederic looked dynamic, but Linus Ullmark couldn't stop Jordan Martinook's late breakaway attempt.

No rest, thiough, as the Bruins are back in action tonight in Ottawa.

Plus, where does Charlie McAvoy rank among Norris Trophy favorites?

Their surprising success begs us to wonder what's more likely: Going all in at the trade deadline or standing pat? A first-round exit or a Stanley Cup win?

Nobody expected the Boston Bruins to be the top team in the NHL last season, and the expectations for 2023-24 were even lower.

Yet the Bruins are #1 this morning in point percentage after a huge win over the Winnipeg Jets. and Charlie Coyle's emergence as a legit top line center has been key to that rise.

Jakub Lauko and Jake DeBrusk also chipped in a remained hot as Jim Montgomery pushes the right lineup buttons.

Boston's underlying numbers don't scream Stanley Cup contender, but they're getting the job done and it's a credit to coaching, an every man up approach, and goaltending.

What a night for the Boston Bruins offense. 16 of 18 players recorded points in a 9-4 win over the Montreal Canadiens, highlighted by Danton Heinen's first career hat trick.

Allowing 4 goals to Montreal is a bit concerning, though, and perhaps it was just some rust from Brandon Carlo (who scored, mind you), Derek Forbort, and Linus Ullmark, all of whom returned from injury.

John Beecher and Mason Lohrei were sent back to the AHL on Saturday, but it's a case of asset management and they'll be back at some point.

Up next: a MASSIVE game against the Winnipeg Jets to begin their pre-bye week.

Locked On hosts voted on Hart Trophy Power Rankings this week and David Pastrnak is outside the top 10.

This is inexplicable considering the numbers he's putting up in the post-Patrice Bergeron / David Krejci era and a rotating cast of linemates.

The Atlantic Division Power Rankings are also updated, and the Boston Bruins have successfully jumped back on top of the Florida Panthers.

Up next: a big game tonight against the Colorado Avalanche, and the possible returns of Linus Ullmark and Brandon Carlo.

Jeremy Swayman is backing up his recent talk about arbitration hearings with strong play, highlighted by a shutout win over the New Jersey Dervils on Monday. Again he was asked about the experience on Monday, and his response was "I want the net every night. And that’s what I want my teammates to know, that’s what I want my coaches to know, it’s what I want this organization to know."

David Pastrnak loves his confidence, and Swayman is going to get paid, but will it mean breaking up the tandem with Linus Ullmark?

Swayman was among the Locked on Bruins 3 Stars of the Game, along with Nico Daws and Trent Frederic.

And where do the Bruins currently rank among the top 5 teams? Let's discuss in the weekly Cup check!

Jeremy Swayman is going to the All-Star game, and after Saturday's overtime win over the St. Louis Blues, he was very vocal about how much this means to him in light of last summer's arbitration hearing.

This came on the heels of Swayman being outspoken about the recent string of OT/SO losses. He's acting and talking like a leader on this team, and will be paid as such this summer ... or any day now, really.

Charlie McAvoy was also sick of the loser point and stepped up huge in the win over St. Louis.

Plus, a look at what's coming this week, including a Monday matinee against the New Jersey Devils.

The good news is Linus Ullmark and Matthew Poitras are both considered day to day with respective injuries. The bad news is the Boston Bruins lost yet another game in extra time, and all the talk afterwards was suspent defensive play on the part of David Pastrnak in overtime.

But, don't look past captain Brad Marchand's failure to cover the star defensively befpore the Vegas Golden Knights ended it.

Jeremy Swayman was fired up after the game, and is tired of leaving points on the table.

3 straight losses is frustrating, but at least the Bruins are earning points.

Next up: a date with the Blues in St. Louis.

Should the Boston Bruins be ranked lower than the Florida Pantehrs despite still sitting first in the Atlantic Division?

That was the consensus among Locked On hosts this week, and Ian McLaren breaks down why, including an average record since Thanksgiving, injuries, and a tough schedule down the stretch.

As we await new of the extent of Linus Ullmark's injury, Brandon Bussi was recalled from the AHL for tonight's game against the Vegas Golden Knights, which is previewed to closer out this episode.

The Boston Bruins straight up didn't have a good time Tuesday in Arizona.

Not only did they lose to the Coyotes in overtime, but Linus Ullmark and Matt Poitras both left the game and did not return due to injury.

Head coach Jim Montgomery didn't know the extent of the injuries, but it doesn't sound good, and Ian McLaren discusses what it means for the club in advance of Thursday's game against the Vegas Golden Knights.

The Bruins also clapped back on David Pastrnak's behalf via X, while Jake Debrusk is on a heater and Jesper Boqvist showed why the Bruins signed him in the summer.

Yes, David Pastrnak's shootout attempt last night in Colorado didn't hit and left many uninspired. But the Boston Bruins coming back twice on the road against the Colorado Avalanche after losing Brandon Carlo to injury is no small feat.

Brad Marchand showed why he's the captain with a pair of big goals, and it was a big point earned against one of the best teams in the NHL.

No rest for the Bruins, either, as they're back in action tonight in Arizona.

Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren was wrong about Trent Frederic.

The forward is red hot and has developed into a well rounded power forward, and should be able to keep it going despite an inflated shooting percentage if he can get more pucks on net.

Frederic scored 2 goals in a huge 7-3 win for the Bruins over the Tampa Bay Lightning, while Matthew Poitras, Jake DeBrusk, and David Pastrnak were also key contributors.

The Bruins now begina 4-game Western roadie tonight in Colorado.

Sidney Crosby and the Penguins won a wild game at TD Garden on Thursday, highlighted by 5 quick goals from both sides to start the game, a 3-goal comeback for the Bruins, and a game winner + excellent defesive play from the Pittsburgh captain in the dying minutes.

It set the example for the Bruins on how to close games, and what kind of effort it'll take down the stretch against more desperate teams.

Plus, Georgii Merkulov has not been put in a position to succeed in his time with the Bruins so far. But, who is he supposed to bump from the top 6 or even 9?

Next up: a game tomorrow against another desperate team in the Tampa Bay Lightning.

The Boston Bruins recalled forward Georgii Merkulov and assigned forward Patrick Brown to Providence on Friday.

The recall is a much hyped move, and will only pay off if Merkulov is put in a position to keep cooking offensively.

The vibes around the team are much better following a win over the Buffalo Sabres to shake off a recent skid, and the Bruins have a chance to close out 2023 in a big way with weekend games coming up against Detroit and New Jersey.

The Boston Bruins blew another third period lead in an overtime loss to the Minnesota Wild, but they too pulled even late on regulation to send it to the extra frame despite Marc Andre Fleury's vintage performance.

Jake DeBrusk was called out for poor decision making in OT, leading to questions about his lack of production this season and longterm outlook with the team.

On the plus side, Charlie McAvoy and Pavel Zacha returned to the lineup and David Pastrnak and Brad Marchand found the back of the net.

Plus, a dive into the history corner and some love for Raymond Bourque.

The Boston Bruins decided to send 19-year-old rookie center Matt Poitras to Sweden to play for Team Canada at the 2024 World Juniors.

Why did they make this decision, and is it the right call for the player and the Bruins?

The Boston Bruins took 3 of 4 points from back to back weekend games against the New York Islanders and New York Rangers. Key to earning those points was goaltending, and a league-leading duo of Jeremy Swayman and Linus Ullmark should not be broken up this season via trade.

Many are wondering why the likes of Georgii Merkulov and Fabian Lysell aren't being recalled in favor of Patrick Brown and Jesper Boqvist. Providence head coach Ryan Mougenel had some interesting things to say about Lysell in particular, while the NHL roster is already featuring some rather inexperienced players.

Plus, a look at the week ahead!

Looking at you, Jake DeBrusk, Morgan Geekie, Trent Fredericm, and Oskar Steen.

Note: After recording, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reported tonight will be a scheduled game off for Matt Poitras. Bruins have not decided whether to make him available for World Juniors.

The Boston Bruins fell 2-1 to the New Jersey Devils thanks to an overtime beauty from Jack Hughes.

The loss came despite a strong effort from Jeremy Swayman in his return from an illness, and in a game where Morgan Geekie stepped up huge in Pavel Zacha's absence.

Quite simply, the Bruins didn't do enough to generate offense against a vulnerable Devils squad.

Plus, it appears as though Jakub Zboril's time with the Bruins has come to an end as he was waived and is looking for an opportunity elsewhere.

The good news is the Boston Bruins were able to fend off the Coyotes in a 5-3 win over Arizona on Saturday. There were no late game blown leads, as David Pastrnak iced it in MVP fashion.

The bad news is Pavel Zacha was injured and left the game early. And still, young Matthew Poitras was stapled to the bench in the 3rd as head coach Jim Montgomery decided others gave the team a better chance to win.

But how's he going to learn what it takes to defend leads in the 3rd without getting the reps?

Plus, a look at which teams the Bruins will be up against this week.

The Boston Bruins will be without defenseman Derek Forbort for the balance of December after he was placed on LTIR with a nagging lower-body injury.

This prompted the recall of Mason Lohrei from Providence.

According to The Athletic, the Bruins have the best chance at winning the Stanley Cup among all 32 teams. Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren discusses why that is, how the Forbort injury might change things, and then previews tonight's game against the Buffalo Sabres.

Plus, why Tuukka Rask was at the morning skate on Thursday.

Boston Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery recently lamented the team's lack of toughness, calling them an easy team to play against.

With Milan Lucic out of the picture, it raises the question as to whether the Bruins need to add an enforcer, espercially in light of recent liberties taken against Brad Marchand and Matt Poitras.

Locked on Bruins host Ian McLaren takes both a yay or nay approach, and discusses Pat Maroon as an option.

Plus, some love for the Hampus Lindholm / Brandon Carlo pairing and news and notes from practice.

The 2023-24 Boston Bruins have exceeded all expectations. It's not surprising to see the goaltending tandem of Linus Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman continue to thrive, nor is it a shock to see David Pastrnak dominating offensively.

The team's center depth, however, has been something we didn't see coming, and low key signings like James van Riemsdyk and Danton Heinen have really paid off.

Jake DeBrusk, Morgan Geekie, and Hampus Lindholm could have more to give, and Milan Lucic's reunion tour turned out to be the biggest disappointment.

Altogether, this team is still pretty good!

What a weekend for Brad Marchand.

The Boston Bruins captain recorded a natural hat trick in a win over the Columbus Blue Jackets a night after scoring the overtime game winner against the Maple Leafs in Toronto. He did all this while bearing the weight of leadership and following the passing of his grandmother.

Boston's now on a 3-game W streak after shaking off 3 straight L's.

Plus, what's up with all the last minute goals against, and what's next for the Bruins?

The 2023-24 Boston Bruins probably aren't a first place team, but they're also not as bad as they looked in a recent loss to the last-place Columbus Blue Jackets.

The answer lies somehere in between, and it's clear the Bruins rely heavily on goaltending and defense in order to win. If those two components aren't there, the forward group isn't deep enough to compensate.

A look at who these Bruins are in the context of a surprisingly mid Atlantic Division on today's episode of Locked on Boston Bruins.

The Boston Bruins losing back to back holiday weekend matinees to the Detroit Red Wings and New York Rangers is one thing. But a 5-2 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets after they had played the previous night? That's a little troubling.

The Bruins have not been great over their past five games, with too many penalties and defensive lapses to maintain their winning ways. Is it all a case of regression after an unsustainable start, or is this team simply what it is?

Plus, help won't be coming in the form of Patrick Kane.

It was a pretty bad weekend for the Boston Bruins. They were outscored 12-6 in losses to the Detroit Red Wings and New York Rangers, falling out of first place overall by point percentage.

Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren is here to help us all through this mini slump, putting things into perspective by looking at the context and expected regression for the goalies after very hot starts.

Up next is a very winnable game against Columbus, and a loss to the Blue Jackets would be much mroe cause for concern.

Plus, the NHL messed up by fining Jacob Trouba for whacking Trent Frederic in the head with his stick.

The Boston Bruins did a bit too much unboxing on Black Friday, making 6 trips to the sin bin and allowing the Detroit Red WIngs to score 2 power play goals.

The result was a 5-2 loss, Boston's second regulation L of the season, both at the hands of the Wings.

Jake DeBrusk and Donton Heinen were the lone bright spots, but the Bruins looked sluggish and got into too much trouble.

Things won't get any easier either with a trip tp New York for a Saturday matinee with the Rangers on Saturday.

There's a lot to be thankful for with respect to the Boston Bruins at the American Thanksgiving break.

The Bruins made the Florida Panthers look like turkeys in their own barn by stuffing the net with pucks and squashing attempts to make up ground in the Atlantic. The gravy on top is Boston being at the top of the table.

Today, we give thanks for head coach Jim Montgomery, goalie hugs, young centers making an impact, Charlie Coyle and Pavel Zacha having career years, and Jake DeBrusk lighting the lamp.

Plus, Charlie McAvoy is carrying on a Bruins tradition and a quick preview of a Black Friday matinee against the Detroit Red Wings.

The Boston Bruins were about 5 second away from a regulation win over the Tampa Bay Lightning, but a late penalty and a shortened bench wore them down late, allowing Steven Stamkos to score and push it to an extra frame, where Brandon Hagel ended it early.

Host Ian McLaren offers up 3 thoughts from this loss, including pooor officiating, a lack of playing time for Oskar Steen, Jakub Lauko, and Matt Poitras, plus offense from down the middle and, of course, David Pastrnak.

Plus, the latest on Milan Lucic, who was in court on a domestic charge in Boston on Tuesday.

The Boston Bruins took care of the Montreal Canadiens in entertaining fashion on Saturday after the Big Bad era was commemorated with a raising of the 1970 and 1972 Stanley Cup banners by Bobby Orr, Phil Esposito, Derek Sanderson, Johnny Bucyk et al.

However, the day was marred by the arrest of Milan Lucic following a domestic incident. Lucic was placed on indefinite leave by the club, and it's hard to picture his comeback continuing at this point.

It's a busy week on the ice for the Bruins, beginning with a game against the Lightning on Monday in Tampa Bay. Hopefully the boys can give make the annuasl dads trip a memorable one.

If the Calgary Flames are selling, the Boston Bruins would no doubt be interested in Noah Hanifin, Elias Lindholm, and maybe even Nikita Zadorov.

But, with limited trade assets and cap space, it's more likely they'll try to add next summer in free agency unless Don Sweeney has some tricks up his sleeve.

Plus, a preview of Saturday's game against the Montreal Canadiens, and the story of Dit Clapper in the latest Bruins history corner.

You hear a lot of talk about regression and unsustainability when it comes to hot starts around the NHL, with the Boston Bruins and Vancouver Canucks being prime examples.

In this week's Atlantic Division power rankings, we look at "puck luck" and how the Bruins rank in terms of shooting and save percentage at 5v5.

The big reason why the Bruins can keep it going? Linus Ullmark AND Jeremy Swayman.

Oh, and the Florida Panthers appear to be very legit once again.

David Pastrnak once again put in an MVP performance and four other Boston Brruins recorded their first goals of the season as the black and gold defeated the Buffalo Sabres to increase their record to 12-1-2.

The Bruins once again find themselves first overall in the NHL, which is quite a feat considering all the players who left the organization this past summer.

Ian McLAren breaks down the win over Buffalo, and what was behind it following a down effort in the previous game vs. Montreal.

The Boston Bruins dropped an overtime decision to the Canadiens amid rumbluings they spent Friday night living it up in Montreal.

Brad Marchand and Jeremy Swayman showed some fight in the third period, and they're still 11-1-2, so it's notjhing a bag skate can't help fix.

Jake DeBrusk and Hampus Lindholm have been quiet to start the season, though. Is there a need to be concerned?

Plus, a preview of tonight's game against the Buffalo Sabres.

Who would have thought the Boston Bruins would be 11-1-1 after 13 games in the post-Patrice Bergeron era?

Their latest win came courtesy of Charlie Coyle's first career hat trick, aided by some fine play from his (hopefulyl permanent) linemates, James van Riemsdyk and Trent Frederic.

David Pastrnak also remained red hot with another 3 point performance. With Connor McDavid struggling, Pastrnak should be a Hart Trophy frontrunner.

Up next: a date with the Canadiens in Montreal.

The Edmonton Oilers are struggling, but that's not relevant to the Boston Bruins despite speculation a goalie trade could be possible.

Jack Campbell was waived by the Oilers on Tuesday, John Buccigross recently floated the idea of trading Leon Draisaitl and Warren Foegele for Linus Ullmark, Jake DeBrusk, Matt Poitras, Fabian Lysell and a 2026 1st rounder.

Ian McLaren discusses the merits of such a deal, and why the Bruins should continue to prioritize keeping the tandem of Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman together.

Plus, some roster moves were made - what do they mean for Thursday's game against the New York Islanders?

The Boston Bruins 10-1-1 after a win over the Stars in Dallas on Monday. Who woulda thunk it, eh?

How did they pull it off? With first career goals from John Beecher and Mason Lohrei, another monster performance from Jeremy Swayman, and a timely PPG from Captain Brad Marchand as the Bruins were getting caved 5v5.

Boston's underlying numbers are slightly concerning overall, but not enough to bump them off the top of the Atlantic Division Power Rankings this week.

The bad new is the Boston Bruins suffered a regulation loss at the hands of the Detroit Red WIngs on Saturday.

The good news, though, is it took 11 games for that to happen.

What went wrong? The Bruins gave up too many glorious chances, which is understandable considering Detroit's offense and who Boston's missing on defense.

The PK also lapsed a bit because they took way too many penalties, but four different Bruins scored and they were right in it until the very end.

Up next: a date with the Stars in Dallas, where things always seem to get odd.

The Boston Bruins are 9-0-1 after defeating the Toronto Maple Leafs on Thursday.

The Bruins were without 3 of their top 6 defensemen, but Mason Lohrei and Kevin Shattenkirk steped up to play big minutes, and the youngster proved he belongs in the NHL.

Plus, Jake DeBrusk finally found the back of the net, Pavel Zacha and goaltending stays hot, and Brad Marchand riles up the Maple Leafs and their fans, but not Tyler Bertuzzi.

Finally, a preview of Saturday's game against the Detroit Red Wings.

It was a real trick and treat situation for the Boston Bruins on Halloween.

The good news is Matt Poitras was told he'd be sticking around at the NHL level for the time being. Ian McLaren lays out what it means, and why to keep the 40-game mark in mind.

The bad news is Charlie McAvoy was (rightfully) suspended 4 games. Couple that with injuries to Matt Grzelcyk and Jakub Lauko, and you have a few AHL players being recalled for tomorrow's game against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

And speaking of Atlantic Division rivals, it's time to update the power rankings!

The Boston Bruins came back against the Florida Panthers last night, erasing a 2-0 deficit and killing off a major penalty in the 3rd period on the way to an overtime win.

Pavel Zacha was the OT hero in the "character win" (in the words of Jim Montgomery), while Charlie McAvoy is in hot water following an inexcusable hit on Oliver Ekman-Larsson that will likely get him suspended.

Plus, Matt Grzelcyk will be out for a couple weeks with an upper-body injury, and Danton Heinen is officially a Bruin once again.

The Boston Bruins passed their first test against an Eastern Conference opponent, beating the upstart Detroit Red Wings 4-1.

David Pastrnak scored his second penalty shot goal of the season to help overcome a strong third period from Detroit, and capped it with an empty netter.

Matt Poitras had his point streak ended, but he had some monster shifts that SHOULD seal his fate as a full time Bruin this season. Boston will announce a decision on whether he's going back to junior following tonight's game against the Florida Panthers.

Let's preview that one as well!

The Boston Bruins were OH SO CLOSE to making team history with 7 cinsectuve wins to start the Centennial season, but a bad penalty and several poor clearing attempts allowed the Anaheim Ducks to make history of their own with a late comeback.

It's disappointing, but 13 of 14 points to start the season is the takeaway here, especially as the schedule starts to get much more difficult.

Up next: a date with the Detroit Red Wings, a decision to be made on Matt Poitras' immediate future, and it's time to end the Patrick Brown experience.

The Boston Bruins are taking on the Anaheim Ducks for the second time in less than a week, and they can set a franchise record for consecutive wins to start a season.

On paper, it's a winnable game, but old pal Frank Vatrano has been red hot.

Next, it's the first Cup check of the season, looking at the top 5 teams around the NHL and how the Bruins rank among them.

Plus, Ian Mitchell was placed on waivers Wednesday. Is another move coming?

The Boston Bruins are 6-0-0. They tied a franchise record for wins to start a season with a 3-0 win over the Chicago Blackhawks on Tuesday.

A Connor Bedard goal was called back, and overall they held the rookie phenom without a shot.

Yes they haven't had the toughest schedule, but wins are wins and it's a heck of a lot better than going 0-6-0. Goaltending has been huge, and they'll need it to remain strong with tougher opponents on deck.

Matt Poitras' impact has been undeniable, and it seems very likely that his OHL days are over.

Plus, the Bruins now have a chance to make team history in the Centennial Season, which is pretty neat!

Two wins over the weekend propelled the Bruins to 5-0-0, the second-longest win streak to begin a season after a 6-0-0 start in 1937-38.

The biggest reason why the Bruins are winning? Goaltending. Both Linus Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman are among the league leaders in save percentage once again, and a strong penalty kill is certainly helping as well.

Rookie Matt Poitras scored his first two goals as a pro while displaying some nice chemistry with Morgan Geekie, while big gund David Pastrnak and Brad Marchand led the way on Saturday after a nice fight by Trent Frederic.

It's not all great though as Derek Forbort and Milan Lucic are injured, and Jake DeBrusk fell in hot watrer after missing a team meeting.

James van Riemsdyk stays red hot, but where's the secondary scoring?
JohnnyBeecher making an impact at both ends of the ice
Matt Poitras trending towards OHL return

The Boston Bruins host the Chicago Blackhawks in the 2023-24 season opener.

It's the start of the Centennial Season, and the Bruins will no doubt be looking to keep Connor Bedard from scoring his 1st career goal.

Is it really a new era for the Philadelphia Flyers? Will the Montreal Canadiens take steps forward in their rebuilding process? And can the New York Islanders get better results with the same roster that lost in the first round last season? Answers to those questions and more are all inside this special edition of Locked On NHL.

Yet another preseason loss for the Boston Bruins courtesy of a nifty overtime winner from Washington Capitals roster hopeful Matthew Phillips.

Locked on Bruins host Ian McLaren looks at the 3 Stars:

1) Matt Poitras and Mason Lohrei have done enough to warrant inclusion on the opening night roster. Full stop.

2) Milan Lucic, John Beecher, and Jakub Lauko are building a nice looking new 4th line.

3) Derek Forbort fans are thrilled he seems to have a roster spot locked despite being outplayed by Lohrei. Is it time to put him on waivers?

The Boston Bruins were defeated once again by the Philadelphia Flyers in preseason action, and Ian McLaren is here to break down the 3 stars of the night:

1) Matt Poitras recorded a PP assist and continues to make a strong case for inclusion on the opening night roster.

2) Fabian Lysell detractors got some great social media engagement from labeling the 20-year-old a bust, but it's way too early to have that conversation.

3) Ian Mitchell appears to have a leg up on the 7th defenseman role, and could even insert himself into the lineup over Kevin Shattenkirk.

Plus, who's in the lineup for tonight's game against the Washington Capitals?

The Boston Bruins are at the halfway point of the preseason schedule after losing in a shootout on Friday to the Philadelphia Flyers. Here's your 3 Stars:

1) David Pastrnak made it look oh so easy with a pair of goals.

2) Danton Heinen earned a leg up on PTO competition by scoring a goal, while Alex Chiasson was released from his tryout the next day.

3) Georgii Merkulov and Kevin Shattenkirk each had an assist, but host Ian McLaren should have given more love to Brad Marchand for mixing it right up wearing the C for the first time.

Plus, some more training camp cuts, the roster for tonight's preseason game against the Flyers, and the opening night lineup is days away from being set.

Let's play another round of "What's more likely?"

Is it more likely that Pavel Zacha hits 100 points or regresses from his career year because he can't handle top line duties?

Is it more likely that Matt Grzelcyk is traded and Mason Lohrei makes the Boston Bruins or Grzelcyk stays and Lohrei goes to the AHL?

Is it more likely that Danton Heinen and Alex Chiasson make the team or sent on their way after training camp PTOs?

The Buffalo Sabres got the better of our Boston Bruins in preseason action on Tuesday. Here's the 3 Stars:

1) Oskar Steen scored the lone Bruins goal and recorded a team high six shots. Could he be the answer for depth scoring in a third line role? Shout out to Mason Lohrei who recorded an assist in almost 30 minutes of ice time.

2) Boston's road jerseys popped on TV. It's a look they should keep moving forward.

3) Zach Benson stood out for the Sabres, and this team is going to be scary good because of how well they've drafted.

It's Tuesday and the NHL preseason has begun, which means Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren is updating the Atlantic Division Power Rankings.

The Montreal Canadiens and Detroit Red Wings still dwell in the basement, but are the Ottawa Senators and Buffalo Sabres going to be good enough to bump one of the top four? Are the Toronto Maple Leafs and Tampa Bay Lightning deep enough to contend? Can the Boston Bruins and Florida Panthers hang on to wild card spots?

Plus, a look at the lineup for tonight's preseason game against the Buffalo Sabres, where there's plenty on the line for some Bruins looking to grab a spot on the opening night roster.

The Boston Bruins began the preseason with a 3-0 win over the New York Rangers, and host Ian McLaren is awarding his three stars of the game.

1) Brandon Bussi made 29 saves for the shutout, including an early save of the eyar candidate. He sure seems ready for more NHL action, but finds himself firmly behind linus Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman on the depth chart.

2) Matt Poitras recorded a goal and an assist in his NHL preseason debut. He's certainly impression Bruins brass, but is it enough to stick with the team all season long? Maybe not with Johnny Beecher seemingly ready to make the jump.

3) The Bruins are back, and so are the fans, even after last year's heartbreak. Stick tap to you all for being in midseason form.

Fanduel has the Boston Bruins over/under set at 100.5 points for the 2023-24 NHL regular season. That's a huge drop from last year's total, but that's to be expected considering the depatures this past offseason. But will the drop be that steep?

Locked on Bruins host Ian McLaren argues for both the over (goaltending, defense) and the under (where are the goals coming from?) and concludes Boston is still a threat in the Eastern Conference.

Plus, the latest from training camp, where Jeremy Swayman is ready to run through a wall for Captain Brad Marchand.

It was a busy day off the ice to begin Boston Bruins training camp.

Brad Marchand was named captain, and Locked on Bruins host Ian McLaren discusses why #63 is the right guy at this time to wear the C, and how it's not a one-man job.

Plus, what we learned from Cam Neely and Don Sweeney about the outlook and expectations for this season. No one's expecting a repeat of 2022-23, but they're expected to battle every single night and be as competitive as possible.

Other topics include Jake DeBrusk's contract status and don't expect Trent Frederic to play much center this season.

The Boston Bruins tweeted "The sun has risen on another season 🙌" this morning because TRAINING CAMP STARTS TODAY!

Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren tees it up by breaking down the state of each position.

Up front, David Pastrnak and Brad Marchand remain among the best and Jake DeBrusk is set for a bigger breakout, but there's question makrs down the middle following the retirements of Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci. Who else will step up and score?

Things are looking better on the back end, anchored by Charlie McAvoy, who's one of the very best defensemen in the game.

Speaking of best in the game, goaltending will be the strength of this squad, with Linus Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman keeping the goalie hugs going.

Bucke up ... it's going to be an interesting season.

The Boston Bruins went 1-2 at the 2023 Prospects Challenge in Buffalo, and there were a couple players that stood out above the rest: Brett Harrison and Luke Toporowski.

Meanwhile, guys like Fabian Lysell, Mason Lohrei, Georgii Merkulov, and John Farinacci showed they're likely to form a solid core in Providence this season.

Locked on Boston Bruins host takes a look at the forward situation ahead of training camp, and plots out how hard it will be for these AHL guys to make the opening night roster, especially with Danton Heinen and Alex Chiasson attending on PTOs.

Plus, the Bruins have a new assistant coach.

There will be Boston Bruins hockey today!

The Prospects Challenge is happening this weekend in Buffalo, and Bruins youngsters will take on their Pittsburgh Penguins peers on Friday.

There's a few guys to keep an eye on, including Fabian Lysell, Mason Lohrei, Matt Poitras, and Georgii Merkulov. The guys closest to making the NHL roster might be John Beecher, who needs to make a great impression at this tournament.

Plus, head coach Jim Montgomery confirms there will be a captain this season (Brad Marchand? Charlie McAvoy?), and there will also be a new assistant coach named soon.

And Jake DeBrusk says there's nothing new in contract extension talks as he gets ready for a career-defining season.

The Boston Bruins signed forward Danton Heinen to a professional tryout offer on Tuesday. Heinen was traded to the Anaheim Ducks for Nick Ritchie a few years ago, and returns to the Bruins after a couple seasons with the Pittsburgh Penguins. He's not guaranteed to make the team, though, and will battle with Alex Chiasson (also on a PTO) and other forwards like Jesper Boqvist, Milan Lucic, Jakub Lauko, Patrick Brown and potential AHL graduates for a spot on the opening night roster. Plus, Brad Marchand is sure talking like the next captain of the Bruins. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Let's be honest, the 2023 offseason was much longer than the Boston Bruins anticipated. A devastating first-round exit was followed by a bunch of departures (Patrice Bergeron, Taylor Hall, Tyler Bertuzzi, David Krejci, Garnet Hathaway, Dmitry Orlov, Nick Foligno, Thomas Nosek, and Connor Clifton) and some underwhelming additions (Morgan Geekie, James van Riemsdyk, Milan Lucic, Jesper Boqvist, Kevin Shattenkirk). BUT the Bruins prioritized their NHL-best goaltending tandem of Linus Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman and a defense corps that was tops in the league last season. Will it be enough to remain in the playoff picture, or will they be cashing in on the top-10 protection on their 2024 1st round pick? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Ian McLaren discusses the signing, how Boston is filling out the prospect pool despite a lack of draft picks, and what Farinacci can bring to the organization. Next, Locked on NHL hosts recently participated in polls ranking players at each position, and we're looking at the results for Linus Ullmark, Jeremy Swayman, and Charlie McAvoy.

There's some doom and gloom surrounding the Boston Bruins after an epic playoff collapse, and perhaps rightfully so. But things aren't all bad for the black and gold, and there's reason to believe the Bruins will still be pretty good next season apart from other Atlantic Division teams taking steps back. Ian McLaren breaks down three specific reasons: David Pastrnak, Charlie McAvoy and Hampus Lindholm anchoring the defense, and a commitment to keeping Linus Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman together.

There's been a lot of changes to all the Atlantic Division teams so far this summer, and not necessarily for the better. The Boston Bruins are sure to drop off from their historic regular season, but are they still a playoff team? A lot of that depends on whether Patrice Bergeron is back, but the answers is likely yes. Ian McLaren takes a look at improvements made by the Detroit Red Wings, Montreal Canadiens, Ottawa Senators and Buffalo Sabres, while there's reason to believe the Florida Panthers, Tampa Bay Lightning, and Toronto Maple Leafs won't be as good as last season either. A very early look at the power rankings, how much the landcape has changed, any why the Metro will be the division to watch. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! FanDuel Make Every Moment More.

This should come as no surprise, but the 2023-24 Boston Bruins won't be as good as last season. Part of that is the fact their historic regular season is unlikely to be replicated by any team for a while, but there are some specific reasons as well. For one, Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci might not be back, and the offense took further hits with the losses of Taylor Hall and Tyler Bertuzzi. Plus, Linus Ullmark is likely to regress, and even hitting his career average will cost several goals against. They should still be fine, but expect a few (perhaps many) more L's.

The Boston Bruins signed another player in free agency on Wednesday, adding 24-year-old Jesper Boqvist. Boqvist previously played for the New Jersey Devils after being drafted in the second round back in 2017, and scored 10 goals in each of the past two seasons despite limited ice time. So, where does he fit with the 2023-24 Bruins? Plus, Nick Foligno recently spoke about his disappointment over being scratched in Gamer 7 against the Florida Panthers, and a question about whether Jake DeBrusk will get a contract extension.

Ian McLaren then dives into the defensive pairings and how the approach for next season appears to be maintaining a strong back end in order to offset some losses up front. Charlie McAvoy, Hampus Lindholm, Matt Grzelcyk, and Brandon Carlo will lock down the top 4, but there will be a battle for playing time on the third pairing between Kevin Shattenkirk, Derek Forbort, Jakub Zboril, and Ian Mitchell.

One potential arbitration hearing is off the books as defenseman Ian Mitchell signed a 1-year deal. Who is this guy, and what could he bring to the Boston Bruins? Trent Frederic and Jeremy Sway do have arbitration hearing dates set for later this summer, by the way. Plus, Ian McLaren takes an early look at what the opening night lines might be, assuming Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci aren't back. It won't be as deep of a group, but could be fun to watch still and there will be opportunities for guys to step up. Filip Zadina won't be there, though, as he signed with the San Jose Sharks.

Filip Zadina's contract with the Detroit Red Wings will be terminated on Friday, making him an unrestricted free agent. The Boston Bruins should absolutely try to sign the 6th overall pick from 2018 to see if he can become the elite goal scorer he was projected to be. The Bruins have already signed Milan Lucic and James van Riemsdyk to bargain deals - why not do the same with a player who has so much more upside? Look at what happened with Pavel Zacha when he came over from New Jersey. Plus, Matt Poitras is impressing at development camp, but the Bruins have some things they want to see him improve on back in the OHL this season. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

His numbers were down the past couple seasons, but expect him to use his size and skill to his advantage under head coach Jim Montgomery. Plus, Fabian Lysell hits the ice at development camp, why we need to be patient with Bruins' younger prospects, and the Bruins are in need of a new assistant coach after John Gruden gets Toronto's AHL head coaching gig.

Don't assume the slew of signings on July 1 means younger players won't be given a chance to crack the opening night roster for the Boston Bruins. According to Elliotte Friedman on the 32 Thoughts podcast, "Bruins have a lot of young players they are hoping take some bigger roles next season - John Beecher, Marc McLaughlin, Fabian Lysell, Georgii Merkulov, Jakub Lauko....next year will be about who grabs a spot in a year of opportunity and theyll make decisons next summer." So, Milan Lucic, James van Riemsdyk, Kevin Shattenkirk, and Patrick Brown will have to work hard to keep their spots becuse they can be easily sent to the AHL. Morgan Geekie, though, will have a bigger role than he did in Seattle. Plus, Mason Lohrei impresses early at development camp, and Fabian Lysell is taking it easy because of a head injury.

When Taylor Hall was dealt to the Chicago Blackhawks last week, the expectation among fans was the Boston Bruins were clearing space to re-sign Tyler Bertuzzi. Not the case. The Bruins needed to clear space to fill out the roster, and the did that on July 1 by signing Milan Lucic, James van Riemsdyk, Kevin Shattenkirk, Morgan Geekie, and Patrick Brown to deal that equal Hall's old cap hit. Ian McLaren breaks down the signings, why the Bruins took this approach, and how Bertuzzi ended up with the rival Toronto Maple Leafs. And still, theyr'e left with $6.2M to sign Jeremy Swayman, Trent Frederic, and hopefull Patrice Bergeron. A full recap of the sytart of free agency for the Bruins on today's episode!

The Boston Bruins made a handful of mid to late round picks at the NHL Draft on Thursday, and host Ian McLaren offers a brief look at what you need to know about Chris Pelosi, Beckett Hendrickson, Ryan Walsh, Casper Nassen, and Kristian Kostadinski. All attention now turns to free agency, where Don Sweeney doesn't sound optimistic about signing Tyler Bertuzzi or Garnet Hathaway. Milan Lucic is on the radar, though, and they'll need to she more cap space via trades or buyouts to do anything more significant. First priority is re-signing restricted free agents Trent Frederic and Jeremy Swayman, and even that will be tight. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Milan Lucis and the Boston Bruins will reportedly be reunited and Ian McLaren discusses why it feels so good despite his advanced age and a game that's not really built for today's NHL. The Bruins need to fill out the bottom six on the cheap, and Lucic in a centennial jersey will be so fun to see plus good for marketing. Boston wasn't able to move into the first round of the NHL Draft, but have five picks on deck during day two. Who know who they'll pick, but there's one d-man who'd be a great scoop. Yes, there's some trepidation about Boston's lack of moves so far, but the cap is prohibitive. Don Sweeney built the beat regular season team of all time, and we're willing to let him cook and see what the team looks like on opening night before making judgement.

The Boston Bruins still have a lot of work to do after freeing up cap space by trading Taylor Hall. They have np picks in the first or second round of the NHL Draft, and they'll try to get in on the action, but it will cost them Trent Frederic, Linus Ullmark, or Jeremy Swayman. Ian McLaren breaks down what Don Sweeney and Cam Neely were saying about Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci, their unrestricted free agents, breaking up the goalie tandem, and more.

It was a busy Monday for the Boston Bruins. It began with the trade of Taylor Hall and Nick Foligno's negotiating rights to the Chicago Blackhawks for restricted free agent defensemen Alec Regula and Ian Mitchell. The Bruins needed to shed some salary cap space, and while the expectation is they'll circle back on trying to sign Tyler Bertuzzi, there's still a lot of work to be done with 9 empty roster spots and $11M in available space. Boston was also well represented at the NHL awards, with Patrice Bergeron, Linus Ullmark, and Jim Montgomery taking home major hardware. Ian McLaren breaks it all down and tries to put 2022-23 in perspective on today's episode of Locked on Bruins. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

As the Boston Bruins continue to lament an early playoff exit, the regular season is being celebrated at tonight's NHL Awards. And rightfully so. It was a banger. Linus Ullmark and Jim Montgomery are first time finalists and likely first time winners of the Vezina and Jack Adams. They both had interesting things to say Sunday about their outlooks for next season and maybe even the possibility of the goalie being moved. Plus, why Patrice Bergeron won't be in attendance as he goes for his 6th Selke, and why David Pastrnak probably won't win his awards but Don Sweeney will. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

In the spirit of Justin Bourne's old "Thoughts on Thoughts" column for theScore where he would comment on Elliotte Friedman's weekly column, Ian McLaren is breaking down the latest from Fluto Shinzawa's Athletic piece called "What I’m hearing about the Bruins’ pursuit of cap space, potential trade bait, Bergeron, Krejci, more." Lert's discuss Matt Grzelcyk's seemingly imminent departure, the possibility of splitting up Linus Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman, Connor Clifton's likely departure, and what to make of "One teammate, who requested anonymity because of his respect for Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci, told The Athletic he’s not counting on either being back."

It's no secret the Bruins are in a major salary cap crunch. So, they may need to sign some low-risk, mid-reward guys in free agency.

The Boston Bruins signed goaltender Brandon Bussi to a one-year, two-way contract extension through the 2023-24 season with an NHL cap hit of $775,000. Don't fret, though; it's unlikely Bussi is the backup at the NHL level this season because he hasn't even made his Bruins debut. What is most likely is Jeremy Swayman signing a one-year deal at a lower value than he deserves with the promise of bigger bucks when the team's cap hit is more managable. If he's not open to that, though, it could result in Linus Ullmark being dealt, and Ian McLaren explores some free agent options to fill his spot if that happens.

The Boston Bruins will attempt to redeem themselves in 2023-24 after following up an historic regular season with a baffling playoff collapse. They'll do so with very limited salary cap space and possibly without Patrice Bergeron and/or David Krejci. Going from Presidents' Trophy to out of the playoffs would be ultra embarassing, but it's not out of the realm off possibility.

Did your reaction mirror leaf fans crushing disappointment?" "What is the state of the Atlantic Division and is Orlov coming back?" "w/ Bertuzzi’s strong playoff performance and what seemed like strong chemistry w/ Pasta, would you move someone like Hall to prioritize keeping Bertuzzi?" "I'm not a fan of trading Hall at all to make room for Bertuzzi. Do you think they should and if so why ? Bertuzzi is a small sample size ! Wouldn't it be better to allow younger players move up ?

The Boston Bruins have never been in this position. Never have they been preparing for a draft without a 1st or 2nd round pick. So, where did all the picks go, and who's their best ever 3rd round selection? Oh, and the draft situation could be even more empty next year as well. Plus, some news and notes from around the NHL including the sale of the Ottawa Senators and Bruce Cassidy on the verge of winning a Stanley Cup with the Vegas Golden Knights.

Pierre-Luc Dubois isn't going to sign an extension with the Winnipeg Jets, and could be a candidate to fill the top-line center role with the Boston Bruins. Ideally, Dubois plays a season or two with Patrice Bergeron still around to learn from one of the game's all-time centers. But, can the Bruins pull off a trade for Dubois? And do they have the cap space to sign him? Huge questions that could be moot if Dubois is intent on playing for the Montreal Canadiens, but Ian McLaren offers some ideas on how it could happen.

With the disappointment of a first round exit still hanging in the air, we turn our attention to the Boston Bruins offseason plans. A lot hinges on whether Patrice Begeron and David Krejci decide to come back. If they play on cheap contracts, it makes their binus overages easier to swallow; if they retire, the Bruins are stuck with $4.5M in dead cap space. Either way they'll be looking for cap relief, with Taylor Hall, Charlie Coyle, Matt Grzelcyk, Derek Forbort, and Linus Ullmark all candidates to be moved. There's also a bunch of restricted and unrestricted free agents on the roster with very little money to work with. Does Trent Frederic move? Will Jeremy Swayman be anointed as the top goalie? Can they re-sign Tyler Bertuzzi? It's going to be an interesting summer, folks! Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Don Sweeney did all he could. The Boston Bruins general manager is up for GM of the year because he built the best regular season team of all time. Locked on Bruins host Ian McLaren looks back at Sweeney's big moves and how he gave the team its best chance to win. Sweeney did make one major gaffe though, and it still needs to be formally rectified. This coming offseason will be a big one though as he deals with the aftermath of losing in the first round with limited resources. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Taylor Hall doesn't see his current third line deployment as a demotion. He just wants to contribute, and is thriving right now alongside Charlie Coyle. Hall scored twice in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning, and the Boston Bruins will be that much more dangerous if he can keep up his 30-goal pace.

They appear to have dodged calamity in the injury department as there's no real bad news with respect to Linus Ullmark. Derek Forbort appears close to returning as well, which will be huge for a somewhat struggling penalty kill.

The Boston Bruins are the first team in NHL history to start the season 12-0 at home. David Pastrnak scored the OT winner to take the Black Friday game from the Carolina Hurricanes. David Krejci scored twice, including one after a lengthy goaltender interference review that overturned the call on the ice. The Bruins did lose Linus Ullmark to injury in this one after being jumped on by Connor Clifton in a scramble in front of the net. Craig Smith was also injured and did not return.

As if a win for the Boston Bruins over the Lightning in Tampa isn't big enough, it happened to coincide with captain Patrice Bergeron's 1000th career point. It was another special night for the black and gold as the whole team mobbed the captain following an assist on a Brad Marchand goal. Bigger picture, it was a huge win for a team that looked pretty lackluster in the first period.

Charlie McAvoy was the Big Bear after recording 4 assists and 6 shots on goal, while Patrice Bergeron is 1 point away from hitting a career milestone.

The Boston Bruins are off to their best start ever, but David Krejci - who scored twice in last night's win over the Philadelphia Flyers - knows there's a long road ahead. "I wouldn't get carried away," Krejci said. "Obviously, we've had a great start but it's a long season. It's a really long season. And we're gonna hit some rough patches. That's just the way it is. For right now, we're rolling. So, we'll try and get as many wins as we can." A rough patch could hit with a very tough schedule over the next couple weeks, but not until the Bruins try to tie the record for most home wins to begin a season on Saturday against the Chicago Blackhawks. Plus, Tomas Nosek and Nick Foligno played big roles on Thursday, and Linus Ullmark is currently the best goalie in the NHL. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

In hockey terms, a wagon is a team that's rolling over the opposition and can't be stopped. That's the 2022-23 Boston Bruins so far this season. Keith Kinkaid stepped up and helped the Bruins beat the Sabres in Buffalo on Saturday, with Jakub Zboril scoring his first career goal. On Sunday, Boston won its 9th straight at home to begin the season, their longest such streak in team history. Tomas Nosek was the Big Bear in this one, finally scoring a goal and also dropping the gloves in defense of his friend and teammate David Pastrnak. Ian McLaren breaks down the weekend's action, and points to how the good times should keep rolling this week before the Bruins likely come down to earth a bit later this month.

Less than 3 days after signing Mitchell Mill to an entry-level contract, the Boston Bruins are parting with the young defenseman. Team President Cam Neely said, "Based on new information, we believe it is the best decision at this time to rescind the opportunity for Mitchell Miller to represent the Boston Bruins." Additionally, the organization will "be reevaluating our internal processes for vetting individuals who wish to earn the privilege of playing in the National Hockey League for the Boston Bruins." The decision comes amid significant backlash from Bruins players, fans, and media members. Ian McLaren discusses the decision, breaks down Neely's Monday morning press conference, and argues there's still a price to be paid for the damage caused here. Plus, a brief look at Saturday's game against the Toronto Maple Leafs, and Pooh Bear returns for tonight's game against the St. Louis Blues. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

On Friday, the Boston Bruins announced the signing of defenseman Mitchell Miller to an entry-level contract. Miller was originally selected by the Arizona Coyotes in the fourth round (111th overall) of the 2020 NHL Entry Draft, but the club renounced his draft rights after an Arizona Republic investigation revealed how Miller and a classmate bullied and mistreated another classmate, Isaiah Meyer-Crothers. General manager Don Sweeney gave his reasoning for the signing, despite his misgivings about the move. It points to this decision being guided my team president Cam Neely and perhaps ownership as well. If they were trying to beat others teams to this signing, they should have passed. The fan backlash has been immense, Patrice Bergeron and Nick Foligno were among the players to openly question the decision, Gary Bettmen isn't sure they'll even allow him to play at the NHL level, and the Bruins didn't speak to the victim's family. Host Ian McLaren discusses the signing, the aftermath, and offers a personal reflection to end the episode. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

What. A. Game. And what a great time it is to be a Boston Bruins fan. Down 5-2 to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday, the Bruins emerged victorious thanks to Hampus Lindholm's overtime winner. Lindholm assisted on all three goals to help lead the comeback, earning Big Bear honors and praise from head coach Jim Montgomery. Jakub Lauko also scored his first career goal, and you need to hear what he's going to do with the puck.

The Boston Bruins capped a successful October behind a 30-save shutout from Linus Ullmark and goals from Matt Grzelcyk, Charlie Coyle, Jake DeBrusk, and David Pastrnak en route to a 4-0 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets. The win was the Bruins' fifth straight and with a record of 8-1-0, it's the best nine-game start in team history. Charlie Coyle, Friday's Big Bear of the Night, said it's only the beginning: "We're never satisfied. This doesn't get us in the playoffs, this doesn't give us a championship."

Thursday was a wild one for the Boston Bruins. For starters, Brad Marchand was cleared to play against the Detroit Red Wings, and he proceeded to score two goal and add an assist in the 5-1-0. The Bruins improved to 7-1-0 behind a strong performance from Jeremy Swayman, while fan favorite Derek Forbort earned Big Bear of the night honors. Unfortunately, David Krejci left the game with an upper-body injury and did not return. He was ruled out of tonight's game against the Columbue Blue Jackets, which Ian McLaren previews to end the podcast. Finally, Jack Studnicka was traded to the Vancouver Canucks for goaltender Michael DiPietro and defenseman Jonathan Myrenberg. DiPietro had asked for a trade this past summer and was once considered a high end prospect in net, while Myrenberg was Vancouver's top rated right hand shot D prospect.

The Boston Bruins are off to their best start in over 50 years, improving to 6-1-0 after a win over the Dallas Stars.

In a rather bland 2-1 shootout win over the Anaeim Ducks, Linus Ullmark provided the highlight of the night and grabbed hold of the starting gig for the Boston Bruins. Taylor Hall shook off some lackluster early season performances and provided all of Boston's offense in the win, although it wasn't for lack of trying with respect to David Pastrnak and Jake DeBrusk, who combined for 17 shots.

Jim Montgomery was introduced as the 29th head coach in Boston Bruins history on Monday. He's hoping to improve team scoring while making the Bruins very hard to play against. He's also very appreciative of the opportunity and excited to get going among the rabod fan base in Boston. CEO Charlie Jacobs believes a full rebuild would be a tough sell for the fans, and the plan is for the Bruins to be a cap team and compete for the Stanley Cup year in and year out. Whether that's realistic post-Patrice Bergeron remains to be seen, but it seems as though the captain and perhaps David Krejci will be back for at least one more season, delaying those touch choices. Don't expect the Bruins to be active in free agency beyond the two veteran centers and a David Pastrnak extension as the roster is pretty much set, barring any trades or buyouts.

Boston Bruins forward Jake DeBrusk has reportedly rescinded a trade request that was made public last November. It's unfair to say there's a straight line to be drawn between Bruce Cassidy being replaced and DeBrusk wanting to stay put, as the forward had a very successful second half of the season after being bumped to the first line. But DeBrusk does indeed feel more comfortable playing out his 2-year deal, although it should be noted there's no trade protection.

It's the conclusion of a look back at Don Sweeney's draft history, and Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren argues 2021 might be the GM's best haul. Sweeney bucked recent draft trends by selecting the best available players with the first couple picks, added some much needed center depth, and dipped his toes back in the Canadian Hockey League for the first time in a few years. It might be a couple years before Fabian Lysell and Brett Harrison play in Boston, but it was a good start to restocking the prospect pipeline.

The Boston Bruins are close to hiring Jim Montgomery as their new head coach, according to multiple sources. Montgomery most recently served as an assistant for the St. Louis Blues, reinvigorating their offensive attack. He began his NHL coaching career with the Dallas Stars, but was let go due to unprofessional conduct. Montgomery is in recovery and the Bruins no doubt did their due diligence. Hiring a coach was a huge priority for the Bruins, whose attention now turns to the NHL Draft, free agency, and new contracts for Patrice Bergeron and David Pastrnak.

Boston Bruins captain and Selke Trophy winner Patrice Bergeron is expected to sign a one-year deal to remain with the club for at least the 2022-23 season. Despite the first-round loss, the Bruins had a strong start to 2022, and it looks like they're going to run it back, albeit with a new bench boss.

Continuing a look back at Boston Bruins general manager Don Sweeney's NHL Entry Draft history. In 2017, he selected Urho Vaakanainen directly ahead of a trio of future top 6 centers. Sweeney did, however, flip the young defenseman this year in a package for Hampus Lindholm. The jury is still out on 2nd round pick Jack Studnicka, who's a restricted free agent without a clear role on the team. The big win was in the 4th round and the selection of potential franchise goalie Jeremy Swayman. The rest of the draft was a bit of a write off.

It's Part 2 of a look back at Don Sweeney's draft history, focusing on 2016 and the Boston Bruins adding a franchise defenseman in Charlie McAvoy. The Bruins also added a promising winger in Oskar Steen late in the draft, but definitely flubbed their second 1st-round pick by taking Trent Frederic over Jordan Kyrou or Alex DeBrincat. They, and every other team, also left a Norris Trophy winner on the table. Plus, what's going on with Sweeney's expected contract extension?

The 2015 Draft is a major strike against Sweeney, and the picks made and not made still haunt the Bruins. Looking back, though, Jakub Zboril and Jake DeBrusk were properly rated and should still be good pieces for the team moving forward. But aside from Brandon Carlo, there were no core pieces added with 6 picks in the first 2 rounds, and some serious star power was left on the table.

Continuing a look back at Don Sweeney's trade history by revisiting the 2019 and 2020 NHL trade deadlines. The Boston Bruins acquired some key players (Charlie Coyle, Marcus Johansson) that helped them advance to the Stanley Cup Final in 2019, while their deals with the Anaheim Ducks in 2020 provided lesser results within the context of the Covid-19 playoff bubble. Getting rid of the David Backes contract was a win, but that 2020 1st round pick would be handy right about now.

Bruce Cassidy wanted to keep coaching the Boston Bruins, and was told everything was "status quo" heading into the offseason. Host Ian McLaren breaks down Cassidy's comments from a zoom call with the media on Thursday, and discusses what changed over the past couple weeks and who's really to blame for the still baffling decision to let him go. Don't expect Cassidy to be out of work for long. He's already been talking to several teams. One of those clubs is the Chicago Blackhawks, who seem to be on the verge of a full rebuild. Hopefully the Bruins aren't there yet, but a lot hinges on David Pastrnak. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Built Bar Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

There's been some troubling reports emerging in the aftermath of the Bruce Cassidy firing, and at the top of the list is the notion that David Pastrnak will not sign a contract extension as long as Don Sweeney remains general manager. Host Ian McLaren digs into the report from The Athletic's Fluto Shinzawa, how it became such a hot topic on Twitter, and the rebuttal from Pastrnak's agent. Still, until a deal is signed, there will be question marks. Also, how does the Cassidy firing affect Patrice Bergeron's decision to come back, and will he delay it until later in the year to see how the Bruins manage the early stages of the regular season under a new head coach and amid several key injuries?

By recommending and executing the dismissal of head coach Bruce Cassidy, Boston Bruins general manager Don Sweeney has put himself next in the firing line. Sweeney was firm in his belief that ownership is committed to winning, and seeing as GMs only get so many coaching hires, any futures failures will be pinned squarely on his shoulders. And rightfully so, says host Ian McLaren, who maintains Cassidy should not have been scapegoated. On today's episode, a look at Sweeney's comments to the media following Cassidy's dismissal, and some early odd on the next head coach of the Boston Bruins.

The Boston Bruins fired head coach Bruce Cassidy on Monday after a fairly successful regular season and a Game 7 loss to the widely favored Carolina Hurricanes in the first round of the playoffs. The reasoning? According to general manager Don Sweeney, the team needs a "new voice" and there was a perceived lack of belief in certain young players. Host Ian McLaren discusses this somewhat baffling decision, arguing Cassidy is a scapegoat for Boston's inability to draft the best available talent and questionable free agent signings during his tenure.

Whatever becomes of the 2021-22 Boston Bruins, Game 5 vs. the Carolina Hurricanes will stick with us. Playing without Hampus Lindholm (upper-body injury) and Charlie McAvoy (Covid protocols), the Bruins overcame a pair of one-goal deficits to beat Carolina and tie the first-round playoff series. Key to the win were vintage performances from Brad Marchand and Patrice Bergeron, who have come through for this team time and time again. Credit as well goes to a depleted blue line and rookie goalie Jeremy Swayman. Host Ian McLaren isn't taking off his vintage Bruins hat anytime soon. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

A few hours after news broke that Guy Lafleur, Montreal Canadiens legend and Hockey Hall of Famer, had passed away at the age of 70, Locked On Canadiens hosts Scott Matla and Laura Saba recorded a special bonus ad-free episode to share their immediate reaction. They reflected on the legacy he leaves behind and tried to contextualize the loss of a favourite Canadiens great, and what it means to the Habs, the city of Montreal, the province of Quebec, the NHL, and hockey as a whole. It would be easy to list his many on-ice accomplishments, such as five Stanley Cups, three Art Ross trophies, the most points scored by any Montreal Canadien, and many, many more, but what he truly meant to the hockey community was more than just the way he played - it was the way he embodied what it meant to be legend off the ice as well.

The Boston Bruins fell to the Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday. Playing without David Pastrnak, Trent Frederic, and Curtis Lazar, they also lost defenseman Hampus Lindholm to injury - but he should be "OK", per Bruce Cassidy. Health is a concern, and so is goaltending. Jeremy Swayman has not been great since the beginning of March, raising questions about whether Linus Ullmark will be the playoff starter.

The Boston Bruins emerged victorious from a hard fought game against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Monday. Jake DeBrusk scored twice - including the overtime winner - and also showed a willingness to defend Brad Marchand, who was on the defensive all night after a clean hit on Andrew Peeke that sparked controversy in the first period. There's some injury concerns, though, as both David Pastrnak and Trent Frederic left the game and did not return. Their availability for tonight's game against the Detroit Red Wings is up in the air.

Erik Haula has been on fire since the trade deadline. Is he a legit second line center? With David Pastrnak and Taylor Hall on his wings, he sure is. Another big question for the Boston Bruins is the third D pair, and head coach Bruce Cassidy is hoping Mike Reilly can figure out life on the right side with Derek Forbort.

Coming off a bad loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Boston Bruins needed a boost. And they got it in the form of a Tuukka Rask tribute prior to Thursday's game, and a Marc McLaughlin goal in the win over the New Jersey Devils. The win capped a fantastic win for the Bruins, who posted the second best point percentage in the NHL in March.

The Boston Bruins will honor recently retired goaltender Tuukka Rask before tonight's game against the New Jersey Devils, and that's the theme of today's podcast as well. Over the past 15 years, Rask became arguably the greatest goalie in franchise history, and one of the best among his peers. Period. Plus, Mike Reilly and Josh Brown will likely play against the Devils, and more on Taylor Hall's $5,000 fine for roughing Ilya Lyubushkin.

The Boston Bruins came out with one of their worst efforts in weeks in Tuesday's lopsided loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs. Head coach Bruce Cassidy hopes it's a one off, and while it was hard to watch, it was only a Tuesday game in March after all. There's 16 games remaining and plenty of time to clean thungs up, beginning with practice Wednesday. Any way you look at it, though, the first round playoff opponent will be a tough out. Charlie McAvoy displayed some leadership with his comments after the game, while Taylor Hall might be punished after punching Ilya Lyubushkin from behind. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

It all started with the Tuukka Rask trade. The Boston Bruins and Toronto Maple Leafs have developed an entertaining rivalry over the past several years, highlighted early on by some big trades involving Andrew Raycroft and Phil Kessel thar brought Rask, Tyler Seguin and Dougie Hamilton to town. On the ice, a trio of playoff Game 7s with Patrice Bergeron, Jake DeBrusk, James Reimer and Nazem Kadri taking center stage ramped up the tension. The two teams face off tonight in Boston as they chase the Tampa Bay Lightning for second place in the Atlantic Division.

The Boston Bruins leapfrogged the Tampa Bay Lightning in the Atlantic Division standings thanks to a David Pastrnak hat trick. The Bruins were also energized by the debut of Hampus Lindholm, a player Pastrnak called "nasty" and "amazing." It was an encouraging win considering Patrice Bergern remained out of the lineup, and Bruce Cassidy seems to have found the right mix with the roster Don Sweeney has assembled. They'll need to avoid a letdown Saturday against the New York Islanders to set up a huge game next week against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

All eyes were on Boston Bruins general manager Don Sweeney and forward Jake DeBrusk after Monday's NHL Trade Deadline. Sweeney discussed not swinging big to add a forward on Monday, content with adding defensemen Hampus Lindholm and Josh Brown to a team that's been playing very well in 2022. For his part, DeBrusk is happy to know where he'll be playing for the next few months, but don't mistake his contract extension for a rescinding of his trade request.

For the third time in four games. the Boston Bruins gave up a goal in the final minute of regulation. While head coach Bruce Cassidy said the first two instances were self-inflicted, he chalked up last night's late goal by the Los Angeles Kings to bad luck.

The Boston Bruins earned a huge bounce back win over the Washington Capitals following an embarassing loss to Carolina on Tuesday.

David Pastrnak was so excited to have Tuukka Rask back in the Boston Bruins' net, he told the him he'd record a hat trick in the goalie's season debut. And that's exactly what he did. Rask earned Big Bear honors in the win over the Philadelphia Flyers, Pastrnak is most certainly back to his scoring ways, and the Bruins overcame missing three regulars on the back end to improve to 7-1-0 this year. On the downside, Brad Marchand was snubbed by the All-Star selection committee, but Patrice Bergeron remains a worthy entrant. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

The Montreal Canadiens were no match for the red-hot Boston Bruins on Wednesday. Brad Marchand recorded a hat trick and Curtis Lazar earned Big Bear of the Night honors with a 2-goal, 3-point performance.

A major stick tap to Boston Bruins defenseman Matt Grzelcyk for taking the shot in the 3rd period against the Edmonton Oilers, scoring his first goal of the season to secure a 3-2 win for the visiting team. The Bruins have a tendency to make that extra pass, and hopefully this kicks off a trend of being more assertive in the offensive zone and making good on their very strong underlying numbers. Linus Ullmark is the inaugural winner of the Locked on Boston Bruins "Big Bear of the Night" Award, making 41 saves for the win over a loaded Oilers squad. Plus the latest on Jake Debrusk's trade request, Brandon Carlo's injury, Taylor Hall and some news and notes from around the NHL. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
