RT's are not endorsements.
- I do not understand firing Bruce Cassidy. At all. Not even a little bit.
- I will choose to believe for the rest of my days that the pandemic shutdown cost the Bruins a Stanley Cup.
- Thanks to all the Sports Hub listeners for your support over the years. I can't tell you how excited I am to get started.
- As a team, the Bruins scored 222 goals this season. Pastrnak had 106 points. That means he had a goal or assist on 47.7 percent of their goals. No other player in the league is even over 42 percent.Unfortunately, he won’t pick up many votes, but this was another MVP-caliber season for David Pastrnak.
- David Backes had part of his intestines surgically removed 27 DAYS AGO and he's playing hockey tonight. I don't care who you are, you're not as tough as him.
- So, I've had a pretty amazing day. Thank you to so many of you who have reached out with your messages of congratulations. It's been gratifying to see how many people are excited about this morning's announcement..@985TheSportsHub has announced that @Johnston985 will take over as the radio voice of the #NHLBruins 📻 Read more ➡️ bit.ly/4d571YZ
- Nice single use Starbucks cup she's got there.

- Anyone else starting a new job tomorrow? I'll be making my (preseason) debut as Bruins radio play-by-play broadcaster when the B's host the Rangers tomorrow at 5pm. Join Bob Beers and me on @985TheSportsHub!
GIF - I survived the dreaded catwalk to get to the broadcast booth in Calgary!
00:00 - James Van Riemsdyk hadn't posted on Instagram in almost 2 years. Yesterday he posted a Sam Adams ad. How did nobody pick up on this?
- "I encourage Mr. Marchand to reflect on this experience & use it positively in furtherance of his efforts to refine & improve his on-ice image and game." This guy shrugged off Chicago's owner berating reporters who asked about preventing sexual assaults as "an emotional moment."#NHL commissioner Gary Bettman upholds #NHLBruins Brad Marchand’s six game suspension. His full opinion is available. Essentially boils down to 2 games for the punch, 2 games for the high-stick to Jarry’s face and 2 additional games for Marchand’s previous similar conduct.
