*Taking a look at the NHL standings after almost two weeks, there's only one team that has secured all of their potential points and that's the Carolina Hurricanes. They're second in goals for (with a game in hand on #1 Vegas) and tied for third in goals against (with a game in hand on #2 Colorado).

The Montreal Canadiens Honored Franchise Icon Ken Dryden Then Had An Absolute Electric Factory Of A Home Opener

The Montreal Canadiens of the late 1970s tortured my childhood. The Lunchpail A.C. was the first Bruins squad I followed as a tyke and the Habs beat them in the '77 Stanley Cup Final (4-0), the '78 Final (4-2), and, most painfully, the '79 Semi-Finals (4-3). The Bs always gave Montreal everything th

Rear Admiral's NHL Round-Up: The Bruins Start Off Hot, Dynamic Young D-Men, And A Few Predictions

Yeah, it's still very early. But the vibes around the 2025-26 Boston Bruins are substantially better than they have been in quite some time. The 3-1 start to a season in which many predicted doom and gloom obviously provides a nice bump. New head coach Marco Sturm was a terrific hire---I was told "h

The Sharks Blew Last Night's Game Vs. Vegas In The Worst Possible Way Imaginable

This is how San Jose Sharks fans/bettors are feeling today. It pains me to write this blog. Legit. Obviously, the Bruins are my squad. But thanks to the dynamic and personable 1-2 punch of future superstars Macklin Celebrini and Will Smith, the San Jose Sharks have become my Campbell Conference goom

Rear Admiral's 2025-2026 Boston Bruins Preview

FORWARDS Taking a look at the forwards on DF’s Bruins page, the local fandom isn’t exactly hit with a bolt of confidence or Stanley Cup visions.  The Bs have one bona fide, A1 first-liner who also doubles as one of the NHL’s most dynamic superstars. I feel like his brilliance is somehow overshadowed

Spittin' Chiclets Took Over Boston For New Year's And Rear Admiral Made It Rain

The Spittin' Chiclets gang rang in the new year with bells on, celebrating the calendar change during our most recent road trip to Boston. The crew set up shop at the InterContinental Hotel for a pretty slammed five days in the town where Chiclets came to be. We banged out great interviews with Brui

Marian Hossa Talked About The Heartache Of Losing Back-To-Back Cups With Both Opposing Teams In A Terrific Interview

HHOFer Marian Hossa was a tremendous interview on the last Spittin' Chiclets. He spoke about playing in three Stanley Cup Finals in a row but losing the first two.

Don't Dress As Your Coach For Halloween Or You Might Get Sent Down

Not sure if it's tempting fate but dressing up as your coach for Halloween can be a risky move. Red Wings head coach Derek Lalonde had it done to him and told the story on the last Chiclets. Biz added another pissed-off team to his repertoire on this episode as well. His boy Pasha isn't gonna be hap

Mason McTavish Had No Idea How He Made One Of The Biggest Saves In WJC History

Last month at the World Junior Championships in Canada, Anaheim Ducks prospect Mason McTavish made perhaps the most dramatic save in the history of the tournament. And he's not even a goalie. During overtime of the gold medal game vs. Finland, the Finns looked like they were about to win the tourney

If You're Going To Prank A Teammate, Make Sure He Wasn't Cut The Night Before

In the last of the Spittin' Chiclets summer interview series, Bernie Nicholls joined the boys for an enjoyable chat about a bygone era of the NHL. Like when pranks were much more prevalent and guys were pulling off B&Es just to bust a teammate's balls... I can't imagine what the hell would happen to

Patrick Roy Used To Sic Scott Parker On Guys He Didn't Like

If you haven't caught our Scott Parker interview on the last Spittin' Chiclets, there were some gems in there so don't miss it. Like the fact that HHOF goalie Patrick Roy would use Parker as a de facto on-ice buttonman. Or that other guys would offer to help him out with fines for defending teammate
