After a month's hiatus, we're back and boy do we have a lot to talk about.

Ep 905 - We're Back!

This week we start off very off topic and go from there. Matty Pots is of to the WJC. Geekie has finally activated. No one can stop Coyle or Pasta in the shootout. All fun stuff. 

But then we mull over what the Bruins could ask if other teams wanted one of Swaymark tandem. (For the record, we do not want the tandem split up nor do we believe it will happen.)

Ep 906 - Future Problems

Have you wanted to hear the unique vocal stylings of Tim singing CCR? Then this is the episode for you!

We're back and trying to muddle through what we think this team is and look forward tio what they should do at the deadline while noting how players are right now. We discuss the pile of bodies that are the injured and speculate about what is going on with Grzelcyk.

Ep 907 - Who Is This Team?

This week it's just the New England faction holding down the fort talking about the Bruins win streak against good teams and the beat down of the Habs on Saturday night. It's always a glorious day to hate the Habs!

Ep 908 - Heiny Hatty And No Habs No

This week, we're talking about how the Bruins are playing after the All Start break. Their 7-game homestand was not as successful as they or we would have liked. Will their luck change this next week on the road?

Ep 909 - Slump

This week , we're talking a little about last week's games (ugh) and what we want to happen at the trade deadline (double ugh).

Ep 910-Trade Deadtime

This week it's a solo show for VA, who hits on topics such as recent Bruins games, Jack Edwards, and updates on the trade deadline happenings around the league.

Ep 911-Who's Afraid of the Bruins

In this episode the ganag's all here and we're mostly wrapping up the trade deadline by talking about the Bruins acquisitions.

Ep 912-The Big Rig Peeke's Your Interest

This week we're just keeping up with the Bruins winning ways.

Ep 913-Dude McGuy

Truthfully, we spend very little time talking about the Bruins-Leafs matchup because we all know all about it. But, we do talk time to talk about the Arizona-SLC situation (RIP Coyotes) and bid farewell to Jack Edwards who is retiring following this playoff series

Ep 914-It's the Leafs Ha Ha Ha

The 2018 Boston Sports survey that is conducted by Channel Media and Market Research had its results revealed this week. The Bruins rank fourth among the five major sports teams in Boston (Patriots, Red Sox, Celtics, Bruins and Revolution). Today Greg talks about why that shouldn't be a surprise to Bruins fans and should speak about the Celtics than the Bruins themselves. 

He also touches on his Jake DeBrusk thoughts from his "Spiciest Bruins Take" tweet to Colin Beswick.
