Is National Media Already Underestimating Bruins? | The Skate Pod, Ep. 332
Discussing recent national media rankings and betting odds that have the Bruins outside the top-10 teams in the league. Can Trent Frederic steal the second-line winger role and a spot on the Bruins’ top power-play unit? We end with quick thoughts on Marc McLaughlin’s extension and an out-of-the-box question about Mason Lohrei.

E. Lindholm is the X factor. I think heâll fit like a glove, although I canât help but think that the prime age for centers is so much younger than believed. If the bruins win the cup this coming season, Lindholm would be the oldest 1C to win a cup in the cap era.
The rest of the team is sick. Yeah a winger would help, but every other team has holes. Pasta is a top 7~ player, swaymanâs top 5, the d core is top 2, if not 1
Maybe u all hit your stride after a few minutes but i had to turn off after 90 seconds.
This is affiliated with eei?,it felt very disjointed and unprofessional.
Sorry, have to work harder than this slop.
Itâs always the same with the national hockey media. Every year thereâs articles about âthis is finally the year the bruins fall offâ, only for them to be one of the best teams in the league.
Theyâre always better as underdogs anyways
