Stockholm starring Ethan Hawke is a 9 out of 10. Hawke plays one of the funniest characters I've seen of late. Based on the Stockholm hostage crisis in 1973. Premieres on 4/18 at Tribeca and not sure the release schedule, but it's worth checking. I wouldn't be surprised to see Hawke get some awards ...

First off. I am a season ticket holder to the Arizona Coyotes That shit is unwatchable. I don't care about fighting and there's no way that level of rough stuff could continue with the head trauma lawsuits. The league seems faster and more skilled than ever. 19-20 year olds are coming in and domina...

You ain't seen B's, but's it's coming. Maybe too powerful. I am so impressed with how Sweeney’s decisions have worked out. The young talent in Boston is incredible. Boston, Toronto, and Tampa should be playoff locks in the Northeast for years to come. Habs are fucked. Doing what the Leafs and Bruin...

WTF with no broadcast of game against the Habs tomorrow in Quebec City? All I know is that a replay was on NHL Network at 5AM this morning. Most other replays are 2 hours but this was only 1. Shitty game? Didn't seem like it from the box score. Of course Chicago is all over the preseason schedule, ...

6 for 40, color me shocked. Guess he really wanted to play instead of sitting out. Great contracts from Sweeney on Pasta and Marchand. It starts now! Unlike Chia he can draft and work the cap. He's shit the bed on free agents, but supposedly Backes is lean and mean this camp. Beleskey is fighting f...

Yeah, but the salaries are rising way faster than the cap. The CBA is to blame and expect a lockout/strike when it expires. Chiarelli has a history, an average of 1:3 on good to bad contracts. Example, Bergeron good, Krejci, Kevan Miller and McQuaid bad. Bruins should go 8 at $60 million. He will b...

Chiarelli, years removed and miles away, continues to screw the Bruins with stupid contracts. He signed Draisaitl to an 8/68 contract. How does this screw the Bruins? They have a 6/36 offer on the table for Pastrnak. This probably won't end well. A new market is being set for young stars. If you wa...

Odds for next season. Been a long time since Edmonton's opened near the top. Pittsburgh Penguins 9-1 Edmonton Oilers 10-1 Tampa Bay Lightning 10-1 Washington Capitals 10-1 Chicago Blackhawks 12-1 Minnesota Wild 14-1 New York Rangers 14-1 Anaheim Ducks 16-1 Dallas Stars 16-1 Montreal Canadiens 16-1 N...

They are going to break ratings records in the US for NBC if this goes 7: NBC ranks #1 among the Big 4 networks for the night in adults 18-49, total viewers, adults 25-54, adults 18-49 and every key adult-male demographic. In metered-market results, which are time zone-adjusted, last night's NBC Spo...

Damn, 22 million people watched last nights game in China! Preds are good for business. Bettman hasn't slept all week.

I was at the Oilers/Ducks game last night, people were leaving in 3rd with 5-6 minutes to go, then WHAM! The Ducks pulled the goalie and an impressive barrage of shots followed until the spell was broken, then 2 more to tie it up. 4th period Oilers came on strong (really strong), but then the Ducks...

it's going to take more than Claude Julien to stop Butch Cassidy and the run and gun B's. The Habs had fear in their eyes on Sunday night. That was disarray. Hence the buffoon Therrien being gone. Oh yeah, it was just nice to finally somewhat control a game against them for the first time in years....

I met Joel Quenneville last week at the rinks in Foxboro for Pro League Scrimmages. Nice guy. For anyone in the area, it's a great take with some good NHL/College talent that play every Wednesday. Pretty much every team has management and star players coming in to court Jimmy Vesey. He's skating wit...

As soon as they went down 2-1, I said "Must win game at home and they're gonna lose 6-1. Fucking pathetic". Go Flyers. They were never a playoff team. Julien did a good job to get them playing for something at game 82 with that defense. I like the forward group with prospects going forwar...

I can only imagine the crowds NHL teams in the US will be pulling in five to ten years. The NHL has never been stronger financially and youth hockey is at it's highest level in the US. It's a $5 billion dollar per year business. 3-5 million will watch every night for two months during the playoffs ...

I will say the NHL is putting me to sleep this season. I hardly watch the Isles and I have Center Ice. Absolute snoozefest. That does seem to be an issue. I'm not complaining as my team is actually doing well for once! Excluding the Calgary game of course. The Isles are doing well. What is the issu...

Winter Classic in Foxboro sold out in no time at $100 - $450. Hopefully the B's don't lose by more than 3 goals. At least keep it close for a period. Habs 9-0 now. Have not given up a first period goal all year. 4 lines rolling; 3 defence pairings as well; and Price is sublime. B's Winter Classic j...

Press conference tomorrow in Foxboro: he event, which is slated to begin at 2:00 p.m. ET, will feature League personnel, as well as representatives from the Bruins and Canadiens. Bruins Owner Jeremy Jacobs will be on hand, along with Bruins CEO Charlie Jacobs, Bruins President Cam Neely, Bruins Gene...

Not a fan of Reilly Smith and was happy with that trade. At least Hayes should bring some energy. Smith is soft, no physicality or net drive, floater, mentally check outs for long periods at a time to the point where you forget he's on the team for weeks, decent speed, good wrist shot. His 20 goals ...

Wolf, any word from the Habs end on Foxboro tickets? I'm afraid to see the pricing. Surprised they aren't onsale yet. Jake Debrusk at d camp: http://bigbadblog.weei.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/debrusk2.gif Have not heard a thing. I actually forgot about it until you mentioned it. I 'm in summer ...

Jake Debrusk at d camp:

Claude's going to have fun with this D. Jakub Zboril, c'mon down! The bottom of the roster still sucks with the likes of Kelly, Talbot and Rinaldo. This Jake Debrusk kid is already pencilled in before D camp starts. We're gonna need a bigger cooler for this season. http://www.bostonsportsdesk.com/wp...

They're on his trade list.

Let's hope Coyotes to Quebec City for next season. They might have to play in the west at the start, but the immediate sales would there and instant revenue stream that didn't exist in AZ.

Lucic is gone. NY for Yandle or Vancouver are the leading rumors. 15 team trade list.

If I'm a Bruins fan, I'm not so sure I like the choice of Sweeney. For years and years the B's had ex-B's at the helm and they never won. The most success they had since the 70's is when they went outside the old boys network to get Chiarelli. IMO they should have gone that same route. As for the L...

Rangers vs Chicago would be the highest rated final in the US and Anaheim vs Tampa would be the lowest rated final of all time in the US. Bettman needs to have a sit down with the officials.
