California. Duh.
I know money talks, but it's got to be fun as a player getting a hat trick 3,000 miles from home and seeing that many hats on the ice.

My girlfriend didn't believe me about how many Bruins fans would be in the Shark Tank last night until she saw it for herself.

Given the Bruins situation in the coming years it would be beyond foolish not to pay what it takes to keep Pasta in Boston.

The other best players are either locked in already or sailing off into the sunset, and there is nobody left that will really demand a major commitment. They hypothetical flexibility from not paying him does nothing of you can’t fill the gaping hole it would leave on the roster.

Sweeney has been very good at this part of the job so I am hopeful.

His game should age gracefully. He’s not a guy that relies on superior athletic ability. So even max year contract shouldn’t be too burdensome.

And I’m still bitter about that screwy non-icing call in Arizona that cost them at least a point

Is Gibson drunk? Seriously, between him leaving huge gaps and his defenseman standing around while the Bruins do whatever they want, it's hard to say who is doing worse.
