Anthony Travalgia: With confidence behind him, Jeremy Swayman expects a “fun year” The rookie goaltender made 27-saves in the Bruins season opening win Saturday night.

First! Nice write up

I think Foligno is going to be better than I was expecting.

I think having Foligno on the 3rd line is a blessing. Great depth to be able to have that.

So the B's spend 20 million on Ullmark and not play him, that is absurd. Trade him to the Oilers for Mike Smith.

They've only played 1 game...


Speaking of games played - some teams have played 5 games already.

One would think the schedule was set before the Red Sox were confirmed post-season. And I highly doubt the NHL would take that into consideration anyway.

So why the significant lag in games played? Arena (lack of) availability?


WTF is Swayman playing again? I gave the other poster grief because Bruins did not start their $5M goalie first game. But why not the 2nd game?

Fantastic sweaters.

These should be your #1s.

yeah.. Swayman wasnt good last night, to see the B's battle back to tie just hand them the lead back. Not all him, but man, he's gotta do better than that.
