In just over a year, Brandon Bussi goes from No. 4 goalie in the Bruins organization to winning a game in Stanley Cup Final

Couldn't happen to a better human

Jalen Hurts had AJ Brown in HELL 😭

No wonder he wanted out so bad 😂

[Carolina (NHL Champs) Crosshairs @NCCrosshairs]

Is this not one of the craziest postseason stats ever in any sport? #soundthesiren

[Darren McCarty @DarrenMcCarty4]

Just heard the news on #ClaudeLemieux
This is extremely sad no matter what feelings from past or present you hold. My thoughts and prayers to his family and friends and people who got to see the person off the ice wasn’t the person on. As I’ve said and will always call it as I see it

“If your on the ICE with Claude Lemieux and your turn your back. YOU Are an IDIOT.
But off the ICE I’ll turn mine”

And please. If you are struggling at all please reach out and talk to someone

Godspeed my friend

NEW: A federal bill would ban private equity firms from investing in youth sports, specifically targeting "vulture practices" like consolidation, bundling and stay-to-play.

In announcing the bill, lawmakers repeatedly called out Black Bear Sports Group. https://t.co/YPguPQt9ch

Youth sports is on life support.

If you think it’s fine, you’re not paying attention.

Kids age 10-12 are playing way too many tournaments and travel ball. Parents treat it like the World Series. They need less travel, more rest, fueling, and actual development. They’re 12 YO.

The data backs it up:
❌70% of kids drop out of organized sports by age 13.
❌Professionalization (year-round single-sport focus, heavy travel/tournaments) drives overuse injuries, overtraining, and burnout.
❌Nearly 1 in 10 youth athletes experience burnout; up to 35% deal with overtraining.
❌Early specialization before 12-13 raises injury and burnout risks significantly.

Multi-sport kids who rest and play for fun stick around longer and develop better.

Let them be kids. Prioritize recovery, fun, and long-term health over trophies. The best athletes often sample multiple sports early and specialize later.

Who else sees this?

Pardon?

Charlie Coyle gets a six-year extension in Columbus. $6M per year.

@TianoDom27109 65 Sweeney draft picks 4 play for BOS today

38 forward draft picks, 1 top 6ish forward, Debrusk drafted 11 years ago

41, 3rd-7th round forward & or defenseman picks

Lauko's 83 games & Brunet's 1 are the game played leaders at forward & defense

Boston has a deveoplment problem

[Tony Paparazzo @tpaparazzo]

@BruinsCapSpace and then will proceed to sign 4 3rd liners .. leave kids in providence and we’ll lie more

[Steve Tibbetts @StevetTibbetts]

@HackswithHaggs Been hearing for years the need to get faster, younger and more skilled then Sweeney will sign 4 slow footed washed up veterans who average 6 goals a year and the younger/faster will be buried in Providence. Same story every year.

[Boston Pucks @BostonPucks]

@usahockey this might be the world's biggest scumbag. Help do something about it.

[Kenny Jacoby @kennyjacoby]

In the last decade, a private investment firm has consolidated much of youth hockey, turning what was once a community-based activity into a profit machine for wealthy investors.

I spent nine months investigating Black Bear Sports Group. Here's our story:

C: trade for one

[Bruins Cap @BruinsCapSpace]

Your choice if you had to name a Bruins Captain

[Danielle @charagirl33]

@HackswithHaggs Then WHY sign him to his ELC only to bench him????? I believe in this group as much as I believe I'm the princess of England

[MetalBruinsPatriotsOhMy @BruinsOh]

@HackswithHaggs Well, It's a good thing Don Sweeney signed Hagans to his ELC & then benched him the post season

Hagans would be in the AHL right now playing for Providence if it wasn't for Don Sweeney & the dunb decisions he made regarding Hagans

But other than that, sure Sweeney😂

Good Grief

[Cullen @CullenM920]

@_TyAnderson Well of course. Not only did the Bruins make the playoffs, that game 5 OT win pushed it to getting all three home games in the first round.

I'd say he watched them get assclapped in game 6 with an erection but that'd imply he watches the games.

[Boston Pucks @BostonPucks]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Evan Marinofsky @EvanMarinofsky]

Charlie Jacobs: “I sit here today feeling like we’re on the right track.”

[Boston Pucks @BostonPucks]

Same script every year for Sweeney and crew.

[Bruins Network @BruinsNetwork]

Boston:

— Held pending UFAs to force WC1
— Got dominated by BUF
— Lost McAvoy for 5+ games next season
— Played fourth-liners over their elite prospect
— Held depth prospects in PVD for sake of “competing”
— Lost lottery pick to divisional rival

Not ideal, really.

[Mike From Woburn @MikeFromWoburn]

Matthews won't commit to the Maple Leafs next year and the same day Toronto wins the draft.
As rigged as the Crosby Draft.

[Boston Pucks @BostonPucks]

I am SHOCKED they won the lottery. SHOCKED

[theScore @theScore]

Auston Matthews still isn't sure if he'll be back with the Maple Leafs next season.

The team captain reportedly wants to see meaningful roster improvements through trades and free agency before committing another season. 👀

[Nah @Infamouscoma886]

@MikeGrinnell_ You think Sweeney is listening? The fans have been yelling at him to get fucked for like 7 years and he doesn’t care and sells our most beloved player for scraps and ass
