Our Turn!

Congrats to the Boston Bruins for winning Sir Stanley's Cup! I've loved you guys since the lockout & Joe Thornton days, and couldn't be happier for a great group of guys. Timmy played one of the best playoffs ever. The whole team stepped up and proved their worth. Horty brought in some Garden ice before the game. Amazing.

Now can't wait to see Chara raise that cup every morning in the Sports Center intro. It will be nice to see some hockey on the network for a change.

Good Omen For The Killer B's?

Who goes on a 6-game Road Trip and wins all 6 games? And does so during the midst of some major acquisitions, giving the team a much needed face lift? And also beat's the league's top team during said streak? That would be the Bruins.

The additions of Tomas Kaberle, Rich Peverley, and Chris Kelly have helped the B's catch fire, and find the confidence they lost at the end of the playoffs last year. The resurgence of Tukka (who won 4 of the 6) is another bright spot in this win-streak, something that could prove invaluable at the end of the year.

Last time the Bruins won 6 straight road games was in 1972, the last time the Stanley Cup called Beantown home. Good omen's for the boys in Gold, and I'm as hopeful as I was at the start of the season.
