So the title of this post is actually a reference to a project I'm trying to help a friend with. She's making a playlist for every NHL team, and needs help with the Bruins one. I gave her all the obvious songs already - Zombie Nation, The Pretender, every Dropkicks song ever, etc etc. What songs do YOU have on your Bruins playlist?
