I remember as a kid listening too many of whaler games when the Bruins weren't on. Chuck Kaiton was a great play by play guy and Ronnie Francis was their Patrice Bergeron. As Classy as they come and a highly skilled all around Great player.

hope so, but if he does, I don`t move Heinen out of the top 6

Why not ? All he does is continually miss great scoring chances, tired of his act.

hope so, but if he does, I don`t move Heinen out of the top 6

It will likely be Nordstrom moved down a line

It was one of the saddest sporting events I have ever covered.



Karmanos did not trust the Governor of Connecticut and for good reason, as he would ultimately wind up in jail. His plan was to move the Whalers to Auburn Hills, Michigan but the NHL said no way but you can go anywhere else that doesn't have a team and he picked Raleigh.

Moving to North Carolina cost Karmanos millions in the end as had he stayed in Connecticut his cable TV revenue would have exploded. The Whalers were allowed to televise in Boston as NESN did not want to be blocked in Connecticut.

SI's hockey writer explained the mess in 1997 and some of you will be surprised who the author is.

NATURAL DISASTER THE HURRICANES HAVE STORMED INTO NORTH CAROLINA, BUT THEY HAVEN'T BLOWN ANYONE AWAY

Those Whalers jersey were really beautiful imo, home and away jersey.

Multi-point night for JFK let's go baby wooooooooooooooooo

Hope he plays. He has been good and needs games to keep improving.

I hope Bruins win and don't allow any goals against. I don't want to hear Brass Bonanza even once.

I agree. Hartford games would be great on the schedule

Can’t agree. Hartford hockey fans are still bitter that the team was uprooted from their city. An appearance in that city arena would only bring back derision.

There are no connections any more between Raleigh and Hartford on any hockey level. Hartford is now a Ranger outlet.

Bruins look ready to go on a long streak. With DeBrusk , Chara and Miller set to return shortly, things are looking good.

Let's put this one away and enjoy the Christmas holiday.

Looking forward to a nice crisp victory today.

I remember watching Whalers games on Sportschannel when the B’s were off.

I played as they aor in NHLPA 93 on Genesis because I liked the uniforms, but the team sucked.

Mixed feelings about the Canes wearing the Whalers unis.

They’re not the Whalers.

Didn’t realize that when they and the Nordiques relocated, they released the retired numbers into circulation. Edwards said yesterday he’ll go on a rant if Dougie Hamilton comes out wearing #19.

I can’t wait for the rant

@HockeyMomx2 Now make sure he can see the game

 

[Ladyfan]

I went grocery shopping, and I'm baking and wrapping presents. I am tired and am looking forward to crashing at 5 to watch the B's win.

My daughter is Christmas shopping. I let her take my car....I hope she remembers how to drive stick.

Another win with no injuries would be sweet.

HERE WE GO BRUINS...HERE WE GO

I'm scared!!!!!!!!!!

I’m fine hearing Brass Bonanza during the pregame. But once the puck drops, the only brass I want to hear from Carolina is this, courtesy of Ovi’s binge-watchingm

 

[22Brad Park]

Haha said on main board Bruins will take Leafs out and man o man them Leaf fans come in droves all butt hurt.Bruins win today 5-3

 

[PacificNWBruin]

Hope there’s more 5 on 5 goals for the Bruins!

 

[Prince Pasta]

kind of silly wearing their jerseys, why not just change the colors of the canes home for a few games.

The most hated man in Hartford has mixed feelings about Whalers revival
It does not sound like he has any regrets about the move. The whalers seem to be more popular today then they ever where when they where around. I remember reading when the AHL Springfield Falcons where being sold to Arizona that Bruce Landon said the the Falcons attendance was very poor when they where a whalers affiliate and Springfield MA is in Hartford's Backyard

Lineup announced yet? Guessing

Marchand Pasta Heinen
Debrusk Krejci Pasta
Nordstrom Cave Backes
Wagner Acciari Kuraly

It’s so easy to take for granted the high quality of our Game Day Threads because it’s what we’ve come to get used to.

I’ve been doing a lot of lurking on other teams’ pages and many of them have what we’d consider to be bare bones GDTs.

Furthermore, a glance at some teams’ pages reveals mostly a list of GDTs from recent days even weeks and not much else discussion.

We have a good little community around here and some individuals who work so hard to provide something that we can enjoy and also be proud of.

This is literally the only way I can discuss the Bruins with anybody. I have a few friends who "like hockey" but none of them follow it like I do. So I'm glad the Bruins community is very active here.
