2016 First round pick Charlie McAvoy grew up a Rangers fan. Wheeee!

Hint: It's not Cam Fowler. Asked by @goldenpipesss:

@cupofchowdah could we see HERO charts comparing Cam Fowler and Shattenkirk to gauge the better acquisition?

You probably knew Matt Benning (175th pick in 2012 draft) is related to former B's assistant GM Jim Benning. But did you know he's a former figure skater??? I didn't. Hockey East All Access profiled the Northeastern junior ahead of his first round playoff match up with Maine. This video will help you get a little more familiar with one of the B's prospects developing in our backyard.

Excellent news for those of us by the Woo. The name will be announced at a fan event on April 3rd.

Simon Pagenaud was in town at the Bruins and the Auto Show to check out the city in advance of the Grand Prix of Boston...and who is that handsome devil with him in that photo?!

One hell of a hurdle cleared here. Tickets will go on sale just after the new year.

The puck just jumped over his stick at the end, but man, those dekes. Worth a look. Another view: https://streamable.com/9gwh

Max Talbot has been recalled from Providence, meaning he likely takes the spot of the injured Frank Vatrano. This could cause some weird stuff to happen with the lines, but we'll see.

The only way it could've been better is if they had Rask be Gru...you know, Gru-kka Rask? Hello? Is this thing on?

Not terribly surprising. Can't help but wonder if he'll take the demotion and work, or try to get himself sent elsewhere.
