Some good news came from Warrior Arena yesterday, Charlie McAvoy is back at practice. Not only is he back practicing with the club, he is doing so without wearing a specific color of jersey denoting his contact status.
Charlie McAvoy remains out on the ice for the full team practice. He is not wearing maroon or pinot noir or burgundy or merlot or bordeaux or…

Yep, he can have contact, which brings him one step closer to playing. After practice, Bruce Cassidy spoke about Charlie and wouldn’t commit to stating when Charlie will play again although we know it will be soon.

Torey Krug was missing from practice. Fear not! He’s traveling and is likely to play tonight.
As for JFK, he’s likely to be recalled for this Florida trip. Cassidy stated that he wanted JFK to get some game time instead of just sitting out, gaining no experience.
The Bruins will be in Sunrise, FL tonight taking on the Florida Panthers.
Ha ha! Secret Santa has been drawn!

Steve Kampfer however, is curiously wearing white with a red bullseye pattern on it…
Why is Happy Kampfer wearing Kevan Miller’s (formerly Adam McQuaid’s) jersey?
Morning all. Chilly but at least it’s not raining.
Hey Pals!
Tuesday – doubleheader day!! Since i retired i seem to be getting more games! Scheduling quirks of the hiolidays and early snow. Our rink is being sold, so there’s a chance i’ll lose my reffing job. Rumor has it the new owner may go to outsourcing the refs. I don’t really care that much, but just when i put all my eggs in one basket….
Florida!!! Get ready for all ex Bruins to score against them!! Frankie V has 8, but is -6. Yandle has 4, so far…… Hutchinson gets the empty netter
Okay! Too much coffee!!
My Dad had to stop telling people he was retired because they kept trying to get him to do stuff and volunteer for this and that!
Morning all.
I’m feeling crap – only a cold but I don’t get ill very often. Last night Mrs Bear gave me a Czech nasal spray, which cleared my nose instantly with the only side-effect being 30mins of searing pain! God knows what was in it – not sure I want to know!
No to Lucic. Moody players well past their best aren’t what the team needs. They need scoring, sure, but I think we’re missing Bergy at the moment. It’s not a lack of trying – 40 shots in that Wings game? Fans need to be patient. It’s not like the Bs are in freefall – they haven’t lost back-to-back games in regulation all season (don’t blame me if that ends tonight!)
I’m going to Red Sox-Yankees! They’re playing in London next summer. Should be fun.
Morning all.

I was on the edge yesterday. I could feel something coming on. Fired up the chicken soup right away, had a shot of fire cider, a hot toddy. Followed up with orange juice a lil later. I feel great now, but will continue remedies for another day to make sure. It’s been working every time.
Hot toddy – hot water, honey, lemon juice, three whole cloves, and whiskey!! Drink it as hot as you can handle it!!!!
That sounds great and well worth a try! I’ve got through most of a bottle of Frank’s RedHot sauce the last few days but it doesn’t seem to be helping!
Woooo! Awesome you’re going to the game!
Ugh, feel better! It’s a day for maladies. Tweaked my neck this morning while doing a crossword puzzle (how does that even happen?!?). Lower neck is now all stiff and sore.
Yeah, those crosswords can be a menace! If it was killer sudoku I could understand … Hope it’s only minor.
Red Sox – Yankees? That’s a pretty high-profile exhibition. Hope it is as fun as it sounds.
No exhibition – they’re regular-season games! One Saturday night, one Sunday afternoon – I’m going to the Sunday one.
