Seeing as there still aren't many Bruins fans here, we can just use this thread for our thoughts on the team and game discussion.

At first I was dead set against trading Seguin but after the initial shock wore off I am really liking how this team looks.

Cant wait for the 1st real game.

Will be interesting to see how the Bruins are this season. Lots of new faces this year. They maintained their core so I fully expect them to be competitive. I just wonder if the new faces will make them better or worse. I disagreed with how they handled Tyler Seguin in principle, I felt he should've gotten another chance to prove himself but they did get some nice pieces in return.

We're looking pretty damn good in the preseason thus far.

I was mixed at first on the Seguin trade. I thought maybe we gave up on him too soon. But honestly, he doesn't have the physical presence necessary to be a forward on the B's. He's got speed, he will flourish in the West, and I hope he does.

I'm very pleased with the Eriksson and Iggy acquisitions. Soderberg and Krug are going to be huge too.

I'm amped for this season. Let's make another run for the Final. We were so depleted in the playoffs last season.

Isn't anyone else annoyed at threads being labelled "Official?"

Site administrators should be the only ones allowed to use that label, IMO.

More on topic, to me the NFL is just something to help pass the time between baseball season and
winter sports seasons. I suspect I'm in the minority on that, but I can live with it. Who's with me on this?

Baseball is just too goddamn boring.

Football is too stop and go. But atleast my Fins are doing good.

Hockey is all that matters.

And no, "Official" tags don't annoy me.

Whether or not this thread is actually, in any meaningful sense, "official," I am ready for the season to start.

The team is shaping up nicely...if preseason is any indication. I fully expect another very good team this year, all the pieces are in place for a another good run., just need some health, luck and some bounces! Lets GO Bs:clap:

Can't friggin' wait for Thursday. Although I have to work a double. So it'll be radio for periods one and two, and then I'll go over to the bar for the third for my "dinner" break.

Thoughts on the Bruins. Too whiny. Take a lot of cheap shots. Their goalie sucks, and all the recent success they've had has been because they got lucky in the draft lottery and landed Crosby.

Wait, that is the Bruins, right? I get them and the Penguins mixed up sometimes. They have the same colors for the uniforms.

:whistle:

Why you little son of a bitch. The Penguins copied us. Original Six baby, remember that.

I may have already said this elsewhere, but I am ready for the games that count to start.

Those who like it better than I do can have the NFL. Hockey's a much better game, IMO.

For those who care, the Blackhawks just scored a PPG to take a 1-0 lead in their season-opening game against the Capitols.

I'm pulling for Chicago in this game, BTW.
