Brad Marchand is playing in the Winter Classic on January 1st and he’s super stoked about it. He’s got family going to Notre Dame Stadium, though not as much as last time, when he ended up not playing due to suspension. He’s hoping to not due anything to jeopardize his chance to play this time.
You see, Brad has not had the best luck with regards to playing in this big outdoor game. In 2010, he missed the WC after being sent down to Providence beforehand and getting injured. In 2016, he was suspended due to actions in the game prior to the game at Gillette. (If you ask me, Borowiecki probably deserved that hit.)
Anyway, Brad is trying to make sure he stays on his (mostly) best behavior, probably following Melania Trumps vague and garbled Be Best message, despite having all the penalty minutes this season. (He must be a beast in fantasy hockey this season since he wants to have all the points, too.)
Anyway, hockey returns tonight with the Bruins taking on the Devils at the Garden. Brad, behave! We want to see you rock that game!

Wooooooo!
And I think having a game off will be good for Charlie. Clear the head a bit.
Good morning all,
I’ve had two interviews with the same company. Monday I got a call from the recruiter asking IF I was offered the position, when could I start. That has to be a good sign.
I was the the Bruins-WhalerCanes game. Ugh.
One funny thing from the game. It was actually 75% full, with it being 50-50 Bruins and Canes fans. Let’s Go chants got smooshed together. I kept hearing “Let’s go Brains!”
Hey mate, hope you’re well. Good luck with the job – sounds promising.
I thought there was a decent crowd at that match. I remember hearing from somewhere (possibly yourself) you can get Canes tickets for $10 on Stubhub sometimes. Bs at Panthers earlier in the season looked virtually empty.
Yeah. Weeknight games against less popular teams, or any western team, go CHEAP day of on Stubhub
You sure it was Bruin fans and not zombies?
Because I hear that happens sometimes.
Well, we were watching the something which resembled brainless hockey. Tuukka also tried to bite the head off Hurricanes’ mascot Stormy the Pig
Hi all,
Hard to imagine Marchy being sent down to Providence! How hard can it be to not do something stupid in the next two games? He’s been fairly well behaved this season, hasn’t he? Plenty of penalty mins I know, but I don’t remember any slew-footing or cheap shots or anything like that.
I’m back in the office today and a nice Christmas present – the coffee machine is back from being serviced. Some things you don’t appreciate until they’re not there!
Looking forward to tonight’s game. The Devils are absolute crap, so no doubt the Bs will make hard work of it but hopefully get the right result!
I got myself some coffee packs from my usual morning doughnut shop for my office keurig machine as a mini-treat for christmas.
Morning caffeine ritual is no joke!
I’m not snobby about many things, but I can’t drink that instant crap! When Little Bear was born we had to make a few sacrifices to stay under budget – but coffee wasn’t one of them!
Who was in a rush to get out of the grocery store and accidentally got decaf coffee instead of regular? This dingbat! And of course I realized my mistake Christmas morning when nothing is open to rectify the situation.
DID YOU CALL 911? THAT, IN MY BOOK, IS AN EMERGENCY
Worst Christmas morning ever.
Don’t jinx it!!
Are the Devils still pissed off about that guy Marchand elbowed in the head?
That could… complicate matters.
