Will Don Sweeney add any scoring punch to the Bruins lineup before next month’s trade deadline? If the B’s are looking for a top-6 forward, Joe Haggerty identifies five players who would make sense.

David Krejci centers a line with Danton Heinen and Karson Kuhlman and bounces back from injury to send the Bruins off for their extended break with a 3-2 comeback win over the Golden Knights. 
 

Julian Edelman appeared to have dinner with David Pastrnak, Sean Kuraly and Charlie McAvoy Monday night in the North End at Monica’s Trattoria. 

Boston Bruins winger Brad Marchand was unsurprisingly voted the dirtiest player in the league by his NHL peers.

It should be a season where the promising youngster competes for a Norris Trophy. Instead, it’s been a season of misfires, including Sunday’s loss, Joe Haggerty writes.

Brad Marchand had one of the worst misses in NHL history when he whiffed on a puck in a shootout. Despite his recent struggles, the Boston Bruins forward is keeping it light as he tries to get back on track offensively.

The Bruins made a statement Friday by placing well-paid veteran David Backes on waivers.

The Boston Bruins caught flak for not being physical after Tuukka Rask was knocked out against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Torey Krug made sure that didn’t happen again with his physical effort against the Pittsburgh Penguins, as Joe Haggerty details.

The Bruins hoped Brett Ritchie would demonstrate some toughness, but hasn’t done nearly enough in that department this season. As Joe Haggerty writes, his lack of response to a hit on Tuukka Rask Tuesday cost him his job.

Elvis Merzlikins hands the Bruins their first shutout loss of the season after the B’s don’t do much of anything in retaliation or on the scoreboard after their own goalie, Tuukka Rask, is knocked out 1:12 into the game with a cheap shot to the head.
 

Brad Marchand details what went wrong on his unfortunate whiff in Monday’s Bruins-Flyers shootout.

The Boston Bruins were up big on the Philadelphia Flyers. But as their lead grew, their effort waned and provided the Flyers a chance to get back in the game, writes Joe Haggerty.

The Boston Bruins’ overtime win over the New York Islanders on Saturday night for their third straight victory was proof positive their losing doldrums are behind them.

Jake DeBrusk and David Pastrnak were sensational Thursday night, leading the Boston Bruins in their 5-4 win over the Winnipeg Jets.

The Bruins got contributions from plenty of players, including Danton Heinen’s first goal in nearly a month, in their 6-2 victory in Nashville that ended a three-game losing streak. 

The Bruins have hit the rough patch in their season that’s been predicted from the very start. Amid this stretch, Joe Haggerty answers questions from the Bruins faithful about their frustrations in his latest Hagg Bag mailbag.

The Boston Bruins dropped yet another game in overtime. Joe Haggerty has his talking points from the loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets, including David Krejci’s tough night in his return from a one-game absence.

It’s been a disturbing trend that popped up again in the Bruins’ New Year’s Eve loss in New Jersey – another loss to a last-place team. Make that four (three by shootouts) this season.

The Boston Bruins got a solid effort out of Jake DeBrusk and Steven Kampfer in their third straight win. That and more talking points from Joe Haggerty.

The Bruins ended up paying a price for their pre-Christmas break win against the Washington Capitals as Torey Krug was placed on injured reserve with an upper-body injury
