Well, it's not surprising that our former Boston Bruins head coach Bruce Cassidy's home is on the market. He was let go from the B's in June, and is now the new head coach for the Las Vegas Knights.
Our Boston Bruins take the ice for the first time tonite against the New Jersey Devils. And the B's will have a guardian angel on their shoulder this year. Or should we say on their helmet. That would be a tribute to a great Mainer, Travis Roy, who passed away this past October. Travis, of course, is the heroic person who was paralyzed from the neck down during his first hockey game at Boston University in 1995. The Bruins are joining Boston University hockey teams and putting a TR24 emblem on their helmets. How incredible is that?
Game 1 is tonight against the Carolina Hurricanes, and one bar will look radically different.
It's great when your local tavern or bar throws some support behind the local team. Maybe a dollar off well drinks, or half priced apps during a big game, that's swell...
