Pat Maroon wants to re-sign with

Today at 5pm is the deadline for arbitration eligible RFAs in the

Keeping Patrick Brown and Derek Forbort over Johnny Beecher and Mason Lohrei is a fireable offense. I don’t care about the cap situation and what you are paying guys. Play the best players always.

Jake DeBrusk wants to re-sign with the
#NHLBruins
and is surprised a deal isn’t already done. Should they re-sign the 27-year-old? And what does that deal look like?

Bruins Win 5-4!
Final thoughts:
65 wins. pretty good
135 points. pretty good
31 road wins. pretty good
Florida comes to Boston for round 1 of the playoffs
Now it really begins.
We. Want. The. Cup.

goalie Blaine Lacher at 53 years old. Burst onto the scene in 1994-95 with a 19-11-2 record and 2.41 goals against
The major culprit for this collapse for the

Pavel Zacha 6g 0-2-2. -2. 38.8 FO 5SOG
Charlie Coyle 6g 0-2-2. -1 47.3 FO 11SOG Shots Thr Pct 35.5%
Just not good enough and this was the concern heading into the season.
#GetBent
A rebuild isn’t happening. The
#NHLBruins
would not waste McAvoy and Pastrnak’s prime years on a rebuild. There really isn’t a need to. Top pair is set. Pasta will re-sign. Goalie is set. Just have to make some shrewd moves the next couple of years and hope some prospects develop

UFA update
Jake DeBrusk - No new talks
Danton Heinen - negotiating a return
Patrick Maroon - wants to stay

Outrageous conspiracy theory. David Pastrnak is playing with David Krejci in the World Championships to develop chemistry ahead of Krejci’s return to the

Not sure how you can’t like this deal for the

. Kept top prospects and got a Top 4 D. Also rid themselves of John Moore’s contract. Now they can add more pieces. Big win.
The

Marchand & McAvoy with 2 goals each
Blues don’t like a trip leading to a game winning goal all of the sudden? Suck it. Your gift in 2019 was more important. You still owe us.

Although the
#NHLBruins
won today and moved to 18-5-3 on the season, it’s clear that the team needs a couple of significant moves to be successful in the playoffs. Either a center or scoring winger and some snarl on defense at the forefront.
#GetBent
As the
#NHLBruins
look for center help, what can they expect from the return of Matt Poitras? Does he start the season in Providence or does he take a roster spot and potentially bump Pavel Zacha to wing?
#GetBent
Patrice Bergeron coming back for one year is not hurting the team at all. Next season, several forwards come off the books and more retooling can be done. Also gives the team time to find a center going forward. And, it helps the team remain relevant this season
#NHLBruins
It's over boys. it's OVER. Bruins WIN! 4-3 B's!!!
Tkachuk a little bullshit at the whistle and Carlo engages. Love IT.
Final thoughts:
Bruins showed some fight in the 2nd and 3rd.
Going to need all that and more come playoff time
Bruins big players came to play
Bruins take
You get Bo Horvat even if it means trading Fabian Lysell. Horvat is a proven NHL center. You NEED a good one going forward. Lysell is still hit or miss. You can’t bitch about Sweeney’s drafts and then believe Lysell is a future all star. No brainer
