We discuss the roster, its flaws, and why are they STILL not playing the young guys?? We give an Atlantic Division preview as we look ahead to the season and.... It is certainly going to be a hockey season. Bradley finds out mid-episode that the Blue Jays have been cheating, and Alex is at the center of the controversy. Please, let us know what you

Brad Marchand is a Florida Panther - March 7th, 2025

Line Changes with Alex & Brad ·

2025/03/08

We're back! Because of Don Sweeney, the bruins commenced a "re-tool" trading Frederic, Coyle, Carlo, and Marchand. Carlo and Marchand stay in the division, being dealt to Toronto and Florida, respectively. Don Sweeney's bad moves in the past have led to this reality that Brad Marchand is actually playing for another franchise. We discuss the future of the Bruins. What good are draft picks when it's Sweeney and company making the picks? Where do the bruins go this summer? Why

We're back! Team Canada wins a thrilling Championship game against the United States in what was a slam dunk 4 Nations Faceoff. Meanwhile, back in Bruins' land, everything sucks. Hampus Lindholm is likely out for the remainder of the season, Charlie McAvoy is out for a while after suffering a "significant" AC Joint injury and subsequent infection in Montreal. The Bruins are just "meh." The trade deadline is coming, and it's clear there is only one correct path for Don

2025/01/15

We're back! After a brief hiatus, we are back to discuss the continued trends and flaws of this team! Jeremy Swayman seems to be rounding into form after two 40+ save wins, Marchand and Pastrnak hate each other (lol), and it is way past time for the Bruins to embrace the youth movement fully. The B's playoff chances seem slim- will they make it? Please, let us know what you think and make sure to check out our twitters: Podcast - @LineChangesPod Alex - @bigbadbruins73 Brad - @bradiey98

Montgomery: Fired for Sweeney's Mistakes - November...

Line Changes with Alex & Brad ·

2024/11/22

We're back! After a disappointing start to the season filled with underperforming players in roles they shouldn't be in, Don Sweeney has fired his 3rd coach after letting Jim Montgomery go after Monday's 5-1 loss to Columbus. How much is Montgomery to blame? We quickly answer that question, as every player has been disappointing this season. There are only TWO Bruins on pace for 40 points or more. This is a management issue with players not playing up to par. We also discuss Thursday's 1-0 win over

What Happened to the Team We Love? - October 24th, 2024

Line Changes with Alex & Brad ·

2024/10/25

We're back! The Bruins are... off to a bizarre start to the season, and they cannot stop taking penalties. The Bruins are 3-4-1, but it feels much worse. The Bruins have a decent fourth line.. but that's about it. Just about everyone and everything has been off to start the season. How do the Bruins fix the lack of chemistry? Is it time to call up Lysell? How much blame should Montgomery get? Bare with us as we try to remember it's only October... Please, let us know what you think and make sure

Will Ottawa finally break through? Is there magic brewing in Utah? We then give our award predictions as we look forward to another year of... Connor McDavid

2 Months & No Swayman Contract - September 11th, 2024

2024/09/11

Well... we're back. Tune in as we discuss the tragic deaths of Johnny & Matty Gaudreau, who were tragically murdered by a drunk driver in New Jersey a couple of weeks ago. Do not drink and drive. Call a friend, uber, ANYTHING. We then make the difficult transition to talk about Jeremy Swayman's contract situation and Brad Marchand undergoing 3 offseason surgeries. Are we at all worried about Swayman not having been signed yet? Any worries about Marchand heading into his 16th season? We

Boston Canucks - July 1st, 2024

Line Changes with Alex & Brad ·

2024/07/02

We're back! The Bruins made some big splashes on the first day of Free Agency, locking up Elias Lindholm and Nikita Zadorov. They essentially swap players with the Canucks as DeBrusk, Heinen, and Forbort sign with the Canucks. It is going to be BIZARRE to see Jake DeBrusk in another jersey after being a Bruin for 7 seasons. The Bruins also signed Max Jones, leaving them with just under $8M as negotiations with Swayman are ongoing. We give our thoughts on how the Bruins are constructed as of July

Linus Ullmark was Traded for WHAT?! - June 25th, 2024

Line Changes with Alex & Brad ·

2024/06/25

We're back... and Linus Ullmark is an Ottawa Senator. In return, the Bruins get a first-round pick and the worst statistical goalie from the 2023-24 season- Joonas Korpisalo (at 25% retained), who is signed for four seasons at $3M, and gritty forward Mark Kastelic. We give our reactions to what was a very disappointing trade. Oh yeah, the Florida Panthers won the Cup. Wow, it was brutal to watch Ryan Lomberg lift the Stanley Cup. We then move on to give our outlook on the Draft and Free Agency,

Don Sweeney's Future - June 3rd, 2024

2024/06/03

The Stanley Cup Final is here.... and we couldn't feel more "meh" about it. We briefly talk about the cup final before turning our focus to the Bruins, and more specifically, Don Sweeney. Should this be his last chance? We take a look back at some prior free agency and draft decisions as Don Sweeney gets set to have more than $20M in cap space. We give our thoughts on the state of the Bruins before the craziness of the offseason gets underway. We then do a quick CapFriendly armchair

Eliminated. - May 17th, 2024

2024/05/18

We're back... and the Bruins have been eliminated from the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs. We give our takes on the series, and the B's centennial season as a whole. This one feels different, and not in a bad way. The B's overachieved and had a great season -- even advancing in the playoffs, which they hadn't done since 2021. For the first time in seemingly forever, they have flexibility with cap space, and are primed for what could be an interesting offseason. Jeremy Swayman proved

Sucker Punched. - May 12th, 2024

Line Changes with Alex & Brad ·

2024/05/13

The Bruins are down 3-1. It's much deserved as the Bruins have been thoroughly outplayed..... but the referees still find a way to insert themselves. Sam Bennett sucker punches Brad Marchand, knocking him out of games 3 and 4. No penalty, no suspension, and no fine, but a new camera angle appeared two days later, confirming what we already knew. Then in game 4, it is legal to Crosscheck Charlie Coyle into Jeremy Swayman, and score the game-tying goal moments later. The Bruins deserve to be in

Cats Fighting Bears - May 8th, 2024

2024/05/09

We're back! The Bruins split the first two games in Florida, and head back to Boston looking to regroup after a poor showing in Game 2. The Bruins started the series with a great Game 1 win where they got goals from some unexpected names. But... in Game 2, the Bruins only have 15 shots on goal, Jeremy Swayman is left out to dry as no defenseman wanted to play defense, David Pastrnak fights Matthew Tkachuk, Brandon Montour celebrates a 6-1 goal in Brad Marchand's face, and we are all tied up

The Leafs Are Mulch AGAIN - May 4th, 2024

Line Changes with Alex & Brad ·

2024/05/05

We're back! The Bruins, despite blowing a 3-1 stranglehold, manage to mulch the Leafs in game 7 at TD Garden again. Tune in as we give our fresh reaction to game 7, Pastrnak's OT heroics and the overall stress sports create. We recap what an out-of-this-world series was for Jeremy Swayman, Mason Lohrei stepping up nicely, and David Pastrnak coming through when it matters most. We then briefly look ahead to the rematch against Florida, and the challenge that the Panthers present as the series

Tied Heading to Toronto - April 22nd, 2024

Line Changes with Alex & Brad ·

2024/04/23

We're back! The B's split the first two games of the series as the series shifts back to Toronto. Bradley recounts his trip to Boston for game 1, as the Bruins and the 4th line make their presence felt early in game 1, and then have quite the bad game in game 2. We discuss the goaltending decisions, Peeke's injury, and more! We touch on DeBrusk's excellence so far, Max Domi doing Max Domi things and talk about the play of Brad Marchand. We wrap up the episode talking lineup decisions

Tune in as we recap the end of the season, discuss the B's injury updates and preview another highly anticipated playoff matchup! Who has the advantage, and where? We then go through each playoff series and give our thoughts and predictions as the action gets underway Saturday night! We also discuss the Coyotes becoming an "inactive" franchise and the

2024/03/28

We're back! The Bruins head down to Florida for a much-anticipated battle against the Panthers and Lightning! The Panthers, to no one's surprise, are still VERY unlikable. We also discuss the trend of the Bruins blowing leads, which leads to a fiery Montgomery at practice. We discuss Brazeau's impact, Andrew Peeke's fresh start in Boston, and David Pastrnak hitting 100 points on the season (again). We wrap up the episode about NFL free agency, MLB opening day, and how fast this NHL
