YES!!! The new rule which will see the crease moved closer to the boards will help #19 set up shop. He owes Lindros one too. Owes him with a capital ‘O‘. Incidentally, the aforementioned deal went through and Eric is now officially a Maple Leaf.

Return of the Goons
I guess we can call this the Goonblog 2013 Stanley Cup Special, or, 2013 Playoffs: How I lost all Respect for Sidney Crosby. Either way, I'm feeling creative, so, here we are. Where have I been you ask? You care? Let's get up to speed.
In 2011 my daughter Caroline was born - and the Bruins went on a magical run to win Lord Stanley's Cup. Fast forward to the end of 2012, and Victoria is born. Now the Bruins are marching their way back to the coveted Cup once again. Every time I have a chil...
Turn out the Lights
Finally the Bruins have gotten on the board with a fight last night in Chicago. Nice work by Gregory Campbell to try to spark the boys. Not much of a scrap, but good on Soupy to get it started.

Michael P. Russell 1975-2011
Well, I hate to do it again with the bad news about a hockey player dying, but here we go. An old friend of mine from way back in the day was killed in a car accident last Saturday night. Of all the deaths over this summer, the death of Mike Russell hits the hardest. Mike was 36, had a wife and 2 kids, and was my best friend growing up. He will be missed.
I don't know exactly when and where Mike and I met. I would assume it was the early 80's, at either a soccer field, or a hockey rink. Mike'...
