Two MONTHS? TOO LONG!

  • The Oilers are looking hard at an offer sheet for Dougie Hamilton. Just have a look at his numbers, which are decidedly above average.  [EdmontonJournal]

  • Even if the Bruins could free up money for Milan Lucic, should they? His recent numbers have been declining.  [TSN]

  • The Bruins can borrow from the Blackhawks' playbook to get ahead: The recipe for success is fairly straightforward, at least in concept.  [Boston.com]

  • This gallery of goalie masks features that of the Bruins' Tuukka Rask in all its ivory-clawed glory among the fifteen best. [FoxSports]

  • Have a listen to this podcast about the Bruins' options in the NHL Draft, and players that would make good targets.  (Audio, 26:45)  [NESN]

  • The Bruins are still in contention for the Stanley Cup next season, Las Vegas bookmakers say so. Book it.  [CausewayCrowd]

Elsewhere around the rink:

  • Coach Joel Quenneville's house received the customary decoration post win...  [WGNTV]

  • It is always darkest before the dawn, Lightning .  Katie Baker visited their dressing room after Game #6.  [Grantland]
