Chavez Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 None other than the Boston Bruins, DESPITE the loss of Guerin and Dafoe (who may soon be returning) and the mess with McLaren. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chavez Posted November 15, 2002 Author Share Posted November 15, 2002 Whoa - I started that a few weeks back, and the Bs fell back AMONG the leaders, but are putting the pedal to the metal with a 4 game win streak in which they've scored 20+ goals and allowed about 7. thumbs_u  I still don't like the thought of going through the season with Shields as the #1 'tender, though...

Hugh B Tool Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 Ah the Bru Crew. Gotta love Murray and Big Bird Thornton (whom I have on my team along with Guerin). As long as their D and Netminder hold up reasonably well they are going to be tough. Had an Orr jersey as a kid and still remember Terry "Taz" O'Reilly kicking the sh*t out of all who came his way. Â BTW, what's Cam up to these days?. He was another of my favs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavez Posted November 16, 2002 Author Share Posted November 16, 2002 Sha-KaKa BTW, what's Cam up to these days?. He was another of my favs. I think that ESPN commercial a few years back covers it; they asked about his injury and he goes off - "Look at me - GARDENING! Why don't you kick my dog while you're at it..." I know he and Denis Leary got together the annual Comics Come Home benefit that goes down every year in Boston for the Cam Neely House (I think it's a safe haven for runaways); and he pops up in some bit acting roles here and there ("Kick his ass, Seabass!"), but beyond that, I don't know what he's doing.

Chavez Posted December 1, 2002 Author Share Posted December 1, 2002 Bs notched another coupla wins this weekend to get to 36 points. Â Still wish we had Dafoe back in net, but Shields and Grahame appear to be doing a creditable job. We'll see if they can keep it up; Samsonov's return along with Murray's great play minimize the loss of Guerin at F. And Berard is a bargain find - a young, quality D to hold the fort until the McLaren situation is resolved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tokes Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 Glen Murray = stud also  I'm not a boston fan i just have him in my keeper league..that team is going no where. They might finish first in thier conference or first overall..but they will be out of the playoffs by the first or second round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavez Posted December 13, 2002 Author Share Posted December 13, 2002 Tokes..that team is going no where. They might finish first in thier conference or first overall..but they will be out of the playoffs by the first or second round. Well, it all hinges on whether Grahame or Shields can develop into a money goaltender, something the Bruins haven't had in forever. Both have been solid so far, but the big thing is can one of them get hot heading into the playoffs?  Otherwise, Boston has talent and depth up and down the roster, though not particularly a plethora of super-talented players  F Thornton is money and a superstar on the rise; Murray has always been a bit underrated in my book. Add in Stumpel, Rolston, Axelsson, Samsonov, and Lapointe, and you have plenty of guys who know their way around the net, plus some scoring ability + muscle with PJ Stock.  D Sweeney seems like he played with Bobby Orr; he and Hal Gill provide tough, hard-nosed play from the blue line. The addition of Berard, Girard, and Boynton adds speed and playmaking ability that was sorely lacking in last year's playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
