Week 2

The Bruins won again against the Chicago Blackhawks. They won in a shoot-out. The final score was 3-2. Claude Julien had his 300th win. Tim Thomas stop 27 shots through overtime. As the game went on they started playing more like a team. They got it together and won. Corey Crawford had 38 saves in the loss. They are 0-20 on power plays. I think if they want to keep winning they are going to have to convert on there power plays.

Next week they play th e Hurricanes. the Hurricanes are on a four game winning streak. It will be a close game. They lost to them already but it was only by one goal. I believe the bruins will pick it up and win this one. They need to if they want to repeat as champions.

Bruins week one

They lost against the Flyers 2-1. Ilya Bryzgalov made 22 saves in his first game for the Flyers . the Bruins eliminated them during the playoffs last season. Brad Marchand got a pass from Seguin to give the Boston a 1-0 lead. It was the first goal in the NHL this season; Marchand also scored the last goal in the NHL last season, an empty-netter against Vancouver in Game 7 of the finals.
The Boston Bruins won 4-1. they are 1-1 on the season so far. There are playing a game right now against the Avalanches. Tim Thomas had 25 saves for the Bruins. The Lightning goalie stop 38 shots. The key is to get more shots on the goalie and put more pressure on him. They did a good job of that. Boston went into this game wanting to get on the right direction and start there team off on the right direction.

Bruins vs Islanders

The Boston Bruins won again!!! That was their last pre-season game. I think they ended on a good game. They came out and played sloppy the first period. They were down 2 goals going into the second period. They started playing together and scored 2 goals within 85 seconds. it was all tied up. there was 8459 people at the game. It was a record for the most people at the hockey game at the 10-year-old Webster Bank Arena at Harbor Yard. Tim Johnson had 25 saves for the Bruins. Al Montoya stopped all his 14 shots but was replaced in the second period by Nabokov who let three goals in.
There first game of the season is this Thursday against the Flyer's. I think they will win this came because they are ready to play the real game. These games actually matter to them more. B. Marchand and T. Seguin each had 2 goals apeice and 13 other guys had one goal. This is a good start just for preseason.

Bruins first week of Pre-season

 They played the Senators, the Islanders, and the Canadiens. They play Canadiens again tonight. The Bruins lost to the Senators 2-1 in overtime. it was a very close gain. Then they won against the Islanders. They beat them 6-3. they paid the Canadiens last night and won 7-3. They had Seven different players find the back of the net. I'm pretty excited for them because after they got the first game under there belts they have realized what they have.
   This week the Boston Bruins play the Canadiens tonight at 7:30 and they play the Senators again on Thursday. I think they will beat both teams this week. It will be a good game on Thursday against the Islanders.Rich Peverley and Patrice Bergeron each had a goal and two assists to lead the Boston Bruins against the Islanders.

2011-2012 season

  I think they will make another deep run into the playoffs. They predict them to make it to the play-offs. We'll have to wait until after all  there games. They have the pieces to win another cup if they can all work together.   
 They only lost 2 players to free agents. They have almost all there starting line up back. They have two players that are expeinced and can improve that they signed. They are a young team that is determined to repeat the championship. They have to keep there heads ups and not think there regular season is going to be easy and play like every game is for the Stanley Cup.

2011-12 Schedule

There first preseason game is against the senators. They play September 21, 2011 at 7:30. Bostons Assistant General Manager Jim Benning said "they already have a plan for their goal crease when they take on the Islander." I think they will have a good season. They will make a deep run into the play-offs again. They have six preseason games.

Head coach of Boston Bruins

There head coach is Claude Julien. in his fourth season he brought the Bruins to top of the hockey club. he has brought them to playoffs every season he has has been head coach. he is 51 years old. I think he is one of the best coaches in hockey. He turned the bruins around made many fans happy. This was there first time winning the cuo in 37 years!!!
