This week Nick is flying solo. Mostly he takes on the subject that rocked most BostonBruins fans this week: Tuukka's decision to leave the playoff bubble to return home to his family.

It's time for the Boston Bruins to play games for realz! Their opponent is the Carolina Hurricanes. But we don't talk much about that, instead wrapping up the round-robin/ qualifiers and the 2nd phase of the draft lottery. Next week, we'll talk about nothing but the Canes-B's series. Enjoy the fact that the Leafs are out!

We waited until the Bruins played two games before we recorded again and...well, that was a decision we made. Are we concerned about teh Bruins play? Yep.

In this episode, VA and Nick talk about the rollercoaster ride that is the Unfit to Participate list during this reopening training camp. Bruce Cassidy told everyone to not read too much into it but we do our best to read just a little into it. Tuukka and Patrice are finalists. Woohoo! We wrap it up with a game of the week to be played in the not so distant future.

Hey, we're back. This week, it's VA and Nick talking about all sorts of stuff that's happened over the past month or so, including the NHL's Return to Play plans for Phase 3 and 4.

After taking last week off, the gang is back to talk about Bruins news of the last two weeks. Tuukka talks about continuing his career, Zdeno is keeping track of his cubs via Zoom calls, and the AHL calls their season. As we usually are after a break, we're all over the place in this one.

This week VA, Geoff, and Tim discuss the contract extension of Jaroslav Halak. After that we have a thought experiment about which players have captain material and which do not.

This week we recap the best moments of the Zoom chat between the Bruins 2011 Stanley Cup Champion team. We have some news from various chats with fans and media. And we end things by talking about my favorite subject: Bruins dogs!

This week we turn most of our attention to the apparent cap constraints for the next season and how to sign Torey Krug and the other UFAs/ RFAs. With a potential static salary cap next season, we look at how to sign everyone, with or without the "Get out of cap jail free card" of Compliance Buyouts. We also answer one of your listener questions.

This week we talk about the tragic death of Colby Cave, the prospect of summer hockey, Torey Krug's contract situation, Kevan Miller, and who we think should be the Seventh Player.
