I agree. Now not only are we going to not score goals next season because we got rid of Setoguchi (damn near our best goal scorer last season) but I'm going to have to hear everybody complain about Matt Cooke all season.

Well I guess trying to sever a guys achilles with your skate blade isnt that dirty. Guy is a POS

[Partagaspete]

As an Isles fan I must say at first I was not to enthused about the Nino/Clutterbuck trade but after it settled inI am okay with it.

Hamonic 7 yrs' two UFA years tied up...F yes!!!! Second best player we have. and now for many, many more years. he had some great tweets post signing. Class act.


My only concern is still in net WTF we could not package our 15th and Nino for Corey.

well In Garth I trust. Many months before puck drop.

Can I Haz Hiller pleeez????

You will like Clutterbuck. He hits everything in sight and he has a very underrated wrist shot.

This and not even just ended his career really ****ed up his life.

Then you have Cindy defending him while she's out with a concussion and *****ing about head shots in the league, f_ck that POS too.

[icehog3]

Agree with all of you who say Cooke is a POS. I think I might have even said it earlier.

Tony, I like Hamonic a lot, smart move locking him up.

Is it October yet?

Cooke is a player I would hate on my own team. like Phanueff (sp) or Briere.

I think clutterbuck could add some class to his game but not overly dirty. I'll take his gritz...

As far as Nino. we mismanaged him early on. but he also turned into a whinny demanding crybaby too. so this may be a good move for him to start over. He definitely has the skills but now he needs to get his head straight. if so. than Minny can easily come out on top with this trade. future will tell but I think the move had to happen for his sake as well as the Isles. Best whishes to him.

Breaking News, Bruins waste $56,000,000 on Rask.

8 yr deal worth cap value of 7,000,000 a year for the guy that gives up 2 goals in the last 17 seconds of a game to knock the bruins out of the finals.

WTF is this pay back for laughing at the Canucks for being stuck with Lou's noose around their neck's contract? thanks for nothing Chiarelli

You jest?
Rask is the reason the Bruins went so deep.
There are a lot of slices in the blame pie to go around.
Great to see the Bruins cleaning house,and the latest rumor is Marchand and Kelly are being shopped around?
Brad was a no show against the Hawks, and Kelly is a waste of roster space.

[AdamJoshua]

You think Rask is worth 7 MILLION a year for the next 8 years? No jest here, I think it's a huge waste of money and we are now going to be stuck with this guy come hell or high water, we are now in the same boat as the canucks. I guess this doesn't bode well for Subban.

[Bruins Fan]

That's what the going rate is..next season when the cap goes up you will see a lot of big contracts?

Subban is two or three years away if he is still in the organization?

[AdamJoshua]

3 yrs away and then 5 yrs of backing up a goalie no one will give us a bag of pucks for.

I don't know I am not real thrilled with the "Sinden" job on players, I have read the rumors about Tyler S and if that's the case then yes cut bait and move on. LBH didn't have a great playoff is that the reason to dump him as well, I wonder how much of the partying, if there was, LBH was doing right next to Tyler.

Eh we'll see .. is it October yet?

[Bruins Fan]

Seguin is a train wreck. did you hear his presser in Dallas?
He is happy know... he has a lot of single wingmen to run with what a tool.

[Bruins Fan]

This is funny stuff

As the Stanley Cup was raised high over the head of Zdeno Chara in 2011, the Rogers Arena in Vancouver was full of Canucks fans.

Not a whole lot of Bruins fans were able to enjoy the moment in person, but Whitey Bulger did.

According to The Boston Liberal, an FBI agent who works in Boston followed Bulger for several weeks before making an arrest to find out who he was associating with during his time on the run.

As the agent was tailing him, Bulger traveled for over 20 hours from Santa Monica to Vancouver.

Why? Because it's the Cup.

Bulger reportedly drove to Canada, got tickets into the Rogers Arena, and saw his beloved Bruins win the Stanley Cup in person.

Exactly one week later, the now 83-year-old was arrested after many years on the run.

Ilya Kovalchuk decides to retire from the NHL leaving $77 million on the table from his NJ Devils contract to return to Russia.

Seems he just want's to play in St. Pete and that's that.

Also, I just found out that our D prospects that are expected to make the NHL will make Hammer our SMALLEST Defender.

And unfortunately no, no it is not Oct yet.

Finally, Milbury sucks!!!!

Geno misses the super league...doubt he'd leave Crosby though

His sister said he wants to come back to the NHL in 3 years, kind of odd decisions if he wants to come back anyway, only problems are in 3 yrs he'll still be under contract to SKA and he'll need the Devil's permission to return to the NHL .. what do you think the chance are?

[icehog3]

He sounds like a friggin' idiot. Either that or his sister is a lying female.
