Boston win with a Toronto loss would make things mighty interesting.

CHI last 10 games at home: 3-6-1 (2nd worst) / -11 goal differential
BOS last 10 games on road: 7-2-1 (3rd best) / +12 goal differential

If the Bruins come out and play like they are capable of then this should be a blowout. If they come out and play like they know they are playing an inferior team, well this one maybe a close one.

Did Jack & Brick have to pay their own way?

“Fliggy” for Foligno is up there with Tyler Seguin’s “Seggy” in terms of worst hockey nicknames.

Of course none of this is as bad as “The Perf******* Line”

I look for the latter, it has been their pattern.

Most hockey nicknames are terrible tbh, just shorten the last name and add -y or -er to the end and call it a day lol

Interesting that Jack and Brick's first game on the road will be at a place they haven't called a game from since October 15, 2011 (NBC OR NBCSN took every game in Chicgao since then)

Someone be sure to lock down the minibar and put a cap on room service. I can see Jack having a time for himself out of sheer excitement.

I think there's a more-than-decent chance that the Bruins come home next week 3rd in the Atlantic.

The Bruins are a combined 14-5-1 in their last twenty road games against the Blackhawks/Wild/Jets/Canadiens, while collectively outscoring them 64-37 (63.4GF%.)

Oh yeah, and there's that 'Trade Deadline' thing mixed in there, too.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the last road trip and Jaxk’s behavior while broadcasting remotely on it helped push NESN to get the crew back on the road. The guy sounded like he had finally slipped completely off the deep end.

 

[Dennis Bonvie]

Hoping for a satisfactory win.

Once Tom Werner was assured NESN's baseball revenue was secure for 2022 the budget was increased.

It is what it is
