Ep.231 - Marchand and The Immediate Return to Earth

Short Shift Podcast ·

2025/10/23

Well, folks. We said last week that things would level out and wow.. did they ever. Too much in fact. The surprising euphoria of opening the season with three dubs has come back on us all in humbling fashion as the Boston Bruins have dropped FIVE straight as of recording. No blowouts, no touchdowns put up on us -- but falling short. Consistently. We'll discuss. We'll have your voicemails. We'll make predictions.

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.

Ep.227 - Preseason: Too Early Reactions

Short Shift Podcast ·

2025/09/25

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. Cynically acclaimed. Incredibly online.

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. Cynically acclaimed. Incredibly online. Covering all things #NH...

Short Shift Podcast ·

2025/09/12

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 p...

Short Shift Podcast ·

2025/06/20

We're finally here. Here? There? I don't know.. the Stanley Cup Finals are done and we have a repeat on our hands. This one feels different though -- mostly because of Brad Marchand who had a phenomenal performance that has evoked a mix of emotions from many Bruins fans. And if you were unsure about how to feel all you had to do was wait a few hours and read that Trent Frederic got an EIGHT YEAR CONTRACT. Yep.. the offseason is already off the rails. GET IN.

Aight folks, another offseason episode for the podcast and we greatly appreciate you all for sticking with us through the playoffs. Alas, we have reached the cup finals and we're -- excited? Maybe? There's some storylines in this matchup for sure when it comes to the Boston Bruins with Marchand and Frederic. But there's more in the news cycle -- like the false alarm on the head coaching search. We fully expect a new bench boss to be announced during this cup. Will it be Marco Sturm? Cyn...
