Aight folks, this team has come out swinging and we might have ourselves a really fun team to watch this year. Look, are they playing above expectations? Yes. Is it okay to be excited? Also yes. Are we a playoff team? Way to early for that talk -- but I will tell you this: we DO look like a team you don't want to run into in the playoffs. Or in a dark alley. PREDICTIONS. VOICEMAILS. CHILDREN SWEARING. GET IN.

Aight folks, opening night for your Boston Bruins is upon us. We discuss the opening night roster -- for better or for worse. Were there some snubs? Do we have questions -- and how soon will they be answered? PREDICTIONS are back. Grab a snack-pack and GET IN.

Aight folks, the Providence Bruins are out here playing NHL preseason games and we're just enjoying ourselves the best we can. One more week and we're playing real games. Games that count. No captain, but an old captain is back in the fold -- but what will Zdeno Chara's role really be? Also, is Johnny Beecher going to pull off sticking around with this team or are we all set with that? GET IN.

You know what's not a 'too early reaction'? Matěj Blümel is making this goddamn team. Also, Johnny Beecher.. might... not.

The Boston Bruins are two sloppy and I guess entertaining games into the preseason. We've got opinions, we've got takes. But you know what? We're optimistic. After all, this is a season about rebuilding and establishing the next window, right? “Nothing bad can happen, it can only good happen.” Go B's.

Aight folks, the season is right on our doorstep and its time to get hyped up, right? We're gonna talk camp, we're gonna talk middle-six, we're gonna even talk about Ian's pride and joy, Dans. Unfortunately we also have to touch on the big (sort of?) news out of Boston this week -- David Pastrnak's tendinitis. We're not worried. We should all be getting our minds on REAL HOCKEY GAMES.. because the preseason starts SUNDAY. GET IN.

Aight folks, we're back and we're ready to dive right into the Boston Bruins quest for their 7th Stanley Cup.. or, probably, more realisticaly -- the quest for Gavin McKenna. It's not ALL bad for the B's this season. There are a number of things we'll be watching for and hoping to see out of this transition year under new head coach, Marco Sturm.

Join us for two hours of hockey talk where we lay it out there, as we do every year, and expose ourselves to the critique and condemnation for our predictions and hopium surrounding the upcoming NHL season. GET IN.

Back for another offseason episode of the Short Shift. We're officially putting the bow on our FIFTH season with an hour and twenty-or-so minute episode where we probably discuss hockey for 13 minutes total. And somehow we still cover a lot of ground -- perhaps just not the ground you were expecting.

Actually, this is probably exactly what you were expecting. GET IN.

Aight folks, Andrew and Ian are checking in with plenty to discuss regarding the Hockey Canada resolution (if you can call it that). Where's James Hagens going to land? It's also a great time for a free agency retrospective. Plus other news from around the NHL and YOUR fanmail. GET IN.
