JJ Peterka is nasty. Fraser Minten is good. James Hagens looks like a legit NHLer. Hampus Lindholm looks healthy. I am happy. #NHLBruins

With the addition of Borgen and Clifton this is a very physical Bruins D group. Would be nice to actually score on one of these chances. The 4th line might be a problem. They’re getting hemmed a lot. #NHLBruins

The Rangers surge that led to the Jeannot penalty all started with Lohrei getting beat wide. He’s just bad at taking away space despite being 6’5”. Mediocre skater who gets caught flat footed all the time. It’s not gonna get better. #NHLBruins

I’m glad the Bruins didn’t bring in any vet forwards, but if they had I would’ve taken a flier on Eli Tolvanen. Smart signing for the Rags. #NHLBruins

Can ESPN not afford to give Sean McDonough a color guy? He has to be the only guy in any sport who’s just in the booth by himself. #NHLBruins

They won't do it, but the Bruins really should consider waiving Sean Kuraly. He's washed. The first Philly goal last night - Michkov is his guy. He's by himself at the far post for about 4 second while Kuraly is just standing alone in the slot watching the puck. We'd skewer a young player for that

Connor Clifton has always been a very underrated player. Will Borgen is the best partner Hampus Lindholm has had since Carlo and it’s not close. #NHLBruins

Do I need to cancel @fubo-tv.bsky.social? Last week I was not given the option to watch Patriots-Seahawks from the beginning despite having it set to record the Patriots. This week it is showing me a Patriots-Steelers game from last year. Is the software just broken? WTF?

Van Alan @van-alan.bsky.social · 26/06/2026
Every other NHL GM making move after move after move. Don Sweeney: we're re-signed our AHL backup goalie and the head coach of Providence is signing in Vancouver. I think he knows where they're at. He knows he has to be aggressive. I just don't believe he can execute.

This is not how deals work. If you don't commit to anything then it is not a deal. The word "deal" means "you do this and I'll do that". It's not "you do these three things and then maybe we'll do this". That's not how deals work. Also JD Vance looks like a pig standing on its hind legs.

Hey man, if everything is still Biden’s fault and he’s somehow still running the country then let’s just abandon the charade and make him President again. He was obviously too old and I wanted somebody else. But apparently he’s still President so let’s just stop pretending that he’s not?

If there’s a real point that I actually want to make here, it’s that the Toronto Maple Leafs getting this insanely lucky and still being the fucking Leafs is probably the most embarrassing thing about them. #NHLBruins

If you're just gonna blame Biden for everything anyway just make him President again.

The upshot is the Bruins now have 3 1st round picks in 2028, which is freaking awesome for a team whose best player is about to turn 30. Fuck.

And to be clear- there is quite literally only one team that gets hurt by the Leafs winning the lottery. You guess it it’s the Boston Bruins.

In case anyone was wondering where I stand on this - it’s bull shit. Batting 1.000 on something that has less than a 10% chance of happening is not something that happens. Crooked league.

The Toronto Maple Leafs were last eligible for the draft lottery in 2015. They won it and selected Auston Matthews. So yes they’ve been eligible for the lottery twice in the last 11 years and won both times. Literally 100% of the lotteries they’ve been eligible for. Seems legit. #NHLBruins

There is 1 team who gets hurt by the Toronto Maple Leafs, who had an 8.5% chance of winning the draft lottery, winning the draft lottery. So of fucking course it happened. Seems totally in the level too. #NHLBruins

Bruh man if you're just gonna keep blaming Biden for everything just make him President again. Dude left office a year-and-a-half ago and everything is still his fault? Fine then just give him the job back. What the fuck did we change administrations for if Joe Biden is still running everything?

Zach Benson meanwhile has been offered a lollipop and a good natured slap on the but, because players don’t get suspended for doing things to the Bruins.

Do these guys have a platform other than just cruelty? The objectives of the Iran War were apparently just to blow shit up and kill people. The objectives of their immigration policy are apparently just to bully and abuse folks. At what point do we accept that they're just a bunch of sadists?
