Sometime this weekend I'm going to go through the list of all our prospects and players and write down every team represented by players in the Bruins organization, and then I'm going to cry because HOW THE HECK DO I KEEP TRACK OF ALL THIS, BOO HOO HOO
If you're looking for the blog caravan, it's over at Pensburgh.
