I was reading the "Given the current reality" thread the other day and started thinking about how nice it was and what a hell of a change it's been since the "dark" days. So I went back to the beginning of this forum and started reading some old threads. How far we have come.
2006 training camp
I was excited about how good Mark Mowers looked!
There was a "be a bruin" competition to have a guy invited to camp (it wound up being Billy Tibbets)
Statsny! Jurcina! Dempsey! Primeau! Tenkrat! - your 2006 Boston Bruins!
Tim Thomas - a play in many acts begins
Chia discussion
Who is this Soderberg guy?
A solid goalie prospect like Hannu is so much harder to find than a forward with "good skating ability" and "quick feet."
Chiarelli has officially dipped from "average GM" to "poor GM".
This is abominable.

07-08 - playoffs?
Game 6
Got chills reading through that again
07-08 retrospective
So yeah. This is pretty fun stuff, eh?
