Bruins notebook: Second line starting to make progress

We are about to discover a lot more about just who these Bruins are. The B's will begin a short but, likely, telling three-game road Thursday night in Las Vegas against a Golden Knights team that many see as poised to break the Edmonton Oilers' two-year run to the Stanley Cup Final. And if the Golden Knights can't do it, the B's opponent Saturday night, the Colorado Avalanche, have a good shot at it.

Bruins suffer first loss of season, 4-3, to Lightning

The B's had some brutal puck management issues to start the game that would contribute to a 2-0 deficit. Jake Guentzel created two turnovers that led to both goals. On the first one, the high-scoring winger picked Charlie McAvoy's pocket at the Boston blue line and the Bolts went on a quick counter-attack that resulted in an Anthony Cirelli tap-in off a Gage Goncalves pass just 1:09 into the game, Cirelli's first of two in the period.

Undefeated Bruins hang on to beat Sabres, 3-1

The Bruins played their most dominant period of the season in the opening 20 minutes, outshooting the Sabres 17-2 - it felt like it was even more lopsided - but they managed just a 1-0 lead. The goal came on their 14th shot of the period at 15:48 and for the second time in as many games, it was the second line that gave the B's the first lead of the game.

Bruins notebook: Casey Mittelstadt must continue to produce

One thing we've learned - or had confirmed - through two games of this Bruins season is that winning will rarely come easily for this team. It doesn't matter if they're playing a legitimate Eastern Conference contender on the road like the Washington Capitals or a young, up-and-coming-but-not-there-yet club like the Chicago Blackhawks. But what will make their life in the National Hockey League a little easier is if they get kind the kind of contributions throughout the lineup like they did in Thursday's home opener.

Making sense of Bruins' final roster cuts of training camp

Forwards Matej Blumel and Alex Steeves, defenseman Jonathan Aspirot, and goalie Michael DiPietro were placed on waivers. All four cleared waivers and will report to Providence. The Bruins also assigned Matt Poitras to Providence, with the young center exempt from the waiver wire. Boston had until 5 p.m. on Monday to get their roster down to 23 players, with the Bruins seemingly settling all business a day earlier.

Bruins make cuts to get down to 23-man roster

The Bruins made their final cuts for the opening night roster on Sunday, getting down to the 23-man limit. There were some mild surprises and one feel-good story. Goalie Michael DiPietro, wings Alex Steeves and Matej Blumel and defenseman Jonathan Aspirot were placed on waivers for the purpose of being assigned to Providence while center Matt Poitras, who does not yet require waivers, was sent directly to Providence. Bubble players John Beecher, Marat Khusnutdinov and Jeffrey Viel all made the cut.

Bruins beat Rangers, 4-1, in preseason finale

If the Bruins can replicate Saturday's dress rehearsal when the games start to count on Wednesday in Washington, they just might have a chance do something this season. In the final preseason game against the New York Rangers at TD Garden, the B's scored three times in the first two periods and then leaned on Jeremy Swayman (30 saves) to pick them up in the third to record the 4-1 victory.

Andrew Peeke remains reliable on Bruins' blue line

Peeke was taken in the second round (34th overall) in 2016 by the Blue Jackets. After a three-year collegiate career at Notre Dame and some time in the AHL with the Cleveland Monsters, Peeke became a regular in the Jackets' lineup, playing 82 and 80 games in 2021-22 and 2022-23. But after falling out of favor in Columbus, he was traded to the B's for Jakub Zboril and a 2027 third-round pick at the 2024 trade deadline.

Obviously, there are times when I get under a player's skin but a lot of times that, if you watch the film, it's because of the plays that I made and being on guys, turning pucks over and knowing how to play."
