Poke the Bear

What should Bruins fans be thankful for this season? | Poke the Bear

Welcome back to Poke the Bear! Conor Ryan and Ty Anderson of 98.5 the Sports Hub discuss some positive takeaways for the Bruins from their win over the Islanders, with the top-six forwards clicking and Jeremy Swayman looking sharp between the pipes.

However, their loss to Vancouver on Tuesday was a tough one to swallow, but not without some silver linings—despite defensive lapses, the team showed resilience and offensive firepower, which could be valuable moving forward. Bruins fans have plenty to be thankful for, from solid goaltending depth with Swayman and Ullmark to strong offensive depth and defensive stability.
