@HackswithHaggs & @MickColageo discuss the Bruins long home stretch, whether they can pull away from everybody else & should they make deal with Red Wings for Dylan Larkin or Simon Edvinsson?
Watch on @BruinsCLNS 👇

Broken nose for Matt Poitras. Said he had it set yesterday and breathing was fine. Getting used to wearing the bubble
Absolutely
On the recent "Pucks with Haggs" podcast recorded last Friday, @HackswithHaggs and I agreed that once Morgan Geekie scored a goal, the puck would start going in the net in bunches. Geekie scored Saturday and tonight. #CHIvsBOS #VGKvsBOS
COLUMN: The Bruins are off to a roaring start during an incredible stretch where they're playing 12 of 14 games at home on TD Garden ice through the first week of December. They have a real chance to run away from everybody in the Atlantic Division 🏆🚨🐻 bostonsportsjournal.com/2026…
Poitras is also hunched down pretty low at contact. Not surprising after Bowman was booted from the game in the second period. Poitras left the game and is not practicing this morning
Marco Sturm on Charlie McAvoy picking up an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for chirping the refs after the Golden Knights scored a PP goal with him in the box on an iffy holding call: “That’s something he needs to control. That’s on him. He’s gotta be better than that.”
Marco Sturm: “We were due for a detailed, structured game because we hadn’t really played one that way for a while. So I was really pleased with that tonight”
Big Jeremy Swayman stop on a sneaky Mitch Marner redirect right at the third period buzzer. OT on tap tonight between the Bruins and Golden Knights in a 2-2 game
Noah Hanifin with a great wraparound pass across the crease to Trevor Connelly, who flips a shot behind Jeremy Swayman. 2-2 game in the third period
McAvoy goes right back into the box for chirping the referees as he was coming out of the box. High-powered Vegas PP right back on the power play. Not great
Holding penalty for Charlie McAvoy on Mitch Marner and that leads immediately to a PP goal for Mark Stone. 2-1 Bruins
Nasty hit on Matt Poitras. Game misconduct & a 5 minute major for Braeden Bowman for the obvious dirty elbow to the head
How do we feel about the Bruins Remix jerseys, which they are calling the “Varsity Sweater”? It’s the first all brown look for a Bruins jersey in over 100 years and also features a gold bucket. Not my all-time favorite but better than last year’s yellow outdoor game jerseys IMHO
Totally agree. Didn't have an issue with this one after Vlasic jumped Mittelstadt when he clearly wasn't interested in fighting. Clearly the NHL didn't have a big issue either with the $5K slap on the wrist
Elias Lindholm with the OT game-winner on a power rush to the net after a number of game-saving stops by Mikey DiPietro in overtime. Gutsy OT 5-4 win for the Bruins on a day when they did not have their best.
