Ep.63 - Welcome to BUSSIMANIA

Short Shift Podcast ·

2022/03/31

It was a great week until it wasn't. Our Boston Bruins got big wins over the arch-rival Canadiens, Tampa Bay Lightning and the New York Islanders only to put forth an uneven and mostly uninspiring effort against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Was it all bad? Not at all -- and the boys dive into that. Namely: Hampus Lindholm is very, very good. Lot's of other things to discuss on the show including defensive pairings, trades and a little Bussi talk. Plus PREDICTIONS and some fantasy booking of an NHL

Short Shift Podcast ·

2022/03/18

The deadline is upon us. We're nervous. We're cautiously optimistic. We're mostly pessimistic. On this episode we break down some of the bigger storylines for the Bruins going into Monday's deadline including our final take on what to do with Jake DeBrusk, and who we see as potential targets for Boston. The boys stay loose, particularly Ian who made a bold choice with a tequila & redbull for the recording. All this plus PREDICTIONS and other debauchery. Find us on twitter @shortshiftpod, and if you

Short Shift Podcast ·

Ep.59 - Wild'n Out West

Short Shift Podcast ·

2022/03/02

The Boston Bruins are in the midst of what can only be considered a highly successful western road trip highlighted by an absolute beatdown of the LA Kings that featured a Swayman shutty and a Jake DeBrusk hat trick. Is Sway creeping into Calder contention? What do the boys make of Mike Reilly's recent streak of quality play? Is it standings watch time with Toronto/Tampa/Florida seemingly within reach?

Ep.58 - Playing More Like Pricks

Short Shift Podcast ·

2022/02/24

The Boston Bruins finish off their stretch of games without Brad Marchand with an absolute statement against Colorado and the feeling around the team swings back into positivity. Did Bruce Cassidy's call out have an impact? Are we pricks now? How long can we make this last as the team heads out west for a long road trip. The boys discuss the validity of that momentum plus Swayman's fantastic stretch of play, a couple of deals of debatable impact are ramping up the deadline talk, Studnicka, Senyshyn,

Ep.56 - Short Shift of the Union Address

Short Shift Podcast ·

2022/02/03

We're officially at the All-Star break so it's a logical time to gauge where the Boston Bruins stand in the 2021-22 season. The boys talk about the temperature of this team after a very strange, mediocre week having barely lost to one of the best teams in the league (Colorado) followed by barely beating two awful teams (Arizona, Seattle) and getting obliterated by another average squad in Dallas. What's the deadline going to be like? Tuukka goes down but how concerned should Bruins fans be? Bergeron

Ep.55 - What the Vaak is Going On

Short Shift Podcast ·

2022/01/26

It was a week full of highs and lows for the Boston Bruins and the Short Shift Boys are here to talk about it. Is Tuukka's slow start a cause for concern? Brad Marchand escapes serious injury and continues to torch opponents as well as twitter enemies, Vaakanainen is still playing very well but he's been bumped to the 7th slot in favor of Connor Clifton? Why? What are we going to do with Nick Foligno? NYR sniffing around on Jake DeBrusk -- is this a thing? All this and more nonsense, PLUS

Short Shift Podcast ·

2022/01/18

The Boston Bruins continue to roll and the Short Shift boys are feeling even better than last week. Statements continue to be made as they smack Montreal down easily, hold firm against a testy Philadelphia squad, and gut one out in OT against one of the best teams in the Western Conference in the Nashville Predators. Tuukka Rask is back and looking crisp, Marchand and Pastrnak get back-to-back hat tricks, Vaakanainen continues to improve and impress.. just so much to discuss regarding the win

Ep.53 - One MILLION Dollars

Short Shift Podcast ·

2022/01/12

Aight folks! The Short Shift Podcast is back and we're in a good mood. Lots to be happy about since the new year. Bruins have won 5 of 6, they're getting scoring from all lines, David Pastrnak is heating up along side Taylor Hall just as we'd hoped, Tuukka Rask signs for the bare minimum, Steen, Blidh and Vaakanainen all stepping up. It's insane how much the mood around this team has changed in just a few short weeks. The boys tackle all those topics plus PREDICTIONS and a SHORT SIXTY. GET IN.

Ep.52 - Secondary Scoring? Niceee

Short Shift Podcast ·

2022/01/06

The Bruins are back playing real hockey games, and WINNING thanks in part to a secondary scoring explosion! The boys discuss the latest lines and the fact that the typically tinker-trigger happy Bruce Cassidy is letting them ride a bit. Also up for discussion: a temperature check coming off wins over teams they "should" beat.. how good should fans feel? Plus Oskar Steen has emerged as a guy you cannot take out of this line-up, but who sits when at full health? What's wrong with the power play? Is it

Ep.50 - Hockey Holidays, Everybody

Short Shift Podcast ·

2021/12/23

Ho Ho Holy crap we miss hockey, folks. Episode FIFTY coming in hot for the holidays. The Boston Bruins (and the league for that matter) may be shut down but there's is still PLENTY to talk about. Zach Senyshyn requests a trade: Is there a fundamental disconnect within the organization? Bruce Cassidy is presumably on the hot seat -- is his job actually in jeopardy? The boys also discuss Jakub Zboril being out for the year after knee surgery. How much does his absence cost the Bruins for this season

Ep.49 - Bruins Decimated by COVID Outbreak

Short Shift Podcast ·

2021/12/17

The Bruins are in the thick of a Covid outbreak that is turning the roster inside out, and on a larger scale, the entire league is a dumpster fire with no clear direction or plan of action. The boys smash the record button as they debate the state of the Bruins in the midst of yet another pandemic related controversy. Should the Bruins be playing right now? Are they going to Canada? Are the Olympics off the table? Is the league showing their ass right now with how they're handling all of this? We

Short Shift Podcast ·

2021/12/07

Aight folks. The Bruins somehow held teams to a combined 4 regulation goals in the last three games -- and lost two of them. Weird week? Are they on the rise with some moral victories? The boys dive into the goaltending situation with Swayman hanging onto the role, Ullmark out with illness, and Tuukka Rask practicing with the team as an emergency backup. Also we touch on topics such as Taylor Hall on the first line, Zboril's injury, whats wrong with Reilly, the big week for firing coaches and front

Short Shift Podcast ·

2021/11/30
