Don Sweeney and the Boston Bruins declare bankruptcy! Well, sort of. Hey at least we know the path forward! Well, sort of. A lot was said this week, and a lot was left unsaid. The truth of what the Bruins front office is planning to do this deadline lies somewhere in between the empty words of General Manager Don Sweeney. Been a long time since anyone called him 'Sweenius', right? Plus; your voicemails and our predictions. Well, sort of.

Aight Shorty's -- ughh. Sorry on behalf of Andrew for that one. Episode 102.. oddly enough that was the kiddo's temperature when Thomas had to bail out of recording to take care of things at home. Ian and our recently demoted-to-part-time host Andrew hold down the fort with the help of special guest Anthony aka @BruinsNetwork who is a savant and wealth of knowledge with regards to the Boston Bruins.

We should re-record the intro to put Ian ahead of Andrew, right? Anyways -- Short Shift is back for another episode of Boston Bruins talk amongst the boys. You know what we're gonna talk about. Three lines of quality offensive play, including and honestly highlighted by the Hall/Coyle/Frederic line. Praise were praise is due for Freddy on todays episode for sure. Plus all sorts of forward analysis and stats coming your way. The Bruins are 5-1-1 on the 'gauntlet', and yes -- it seems that the Bruins themselves are the actual gauntlet. Biggest Bruins related surprise? (good or bad).. Is Krejci what you expected this year? Swayman…currently set in stone as backup, is this a concern? Can we resign Pastrnak AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, PLEASE. Also, VOICEMAILS and PREDICTIONS. GET IN.

Hard to believe we haven't killed one another yet, but here we are. Episode number ONE HUNDRED of the Short Shift Podcast. We of course have to talk about how this team is unbeatable at home, how Bergeron is a perfect specimen made in gods image, Ullmark's injury looking worse than it's turning out to be, Forbort's return, the penalty kill, and much more. Plus our weekly predictions and a FUCK TON OF VOICEMAILS. Come for the hockey talk and celebration, stay for the heartfelt thank you's. We're in triple digits baby, it's about time you GET IN.

Another massive week for the 17-2 Boston Bruins, including and highlighted by Patrice Bergeron hitting a milestone that less than 100 other players in NHL history have ever done before him. 1000 points is absolutely unreal. We must praise him -- and do so. Is he one of the best ever? Is that rhetorical at this point? Plus, more love for Foligno and Forbort whom appears to be expected back any day now. Also, is Patrick Kane actually an option for this team? Thoughts on the leaked Winter Classic jersey? PREDICTIONS! (Thomas is on a heater).. VOICEMAILS! VELMA IS ON DRUGS! GET IN!

Linus Ullmark is playing out of his mind, Hampus Lindholm is better than advertised, Charlie McAvoy is back, Patrice Bergeron is the greatest human being in professional hockey, and this team doesn't know how to lose. What are we witnessing here, folks? Voicemails, predictions, and more rolled up in just shy of an hour program. Oh and by the way, this team fucks.

Folks, this fanbase went through it this past weekend. We heard you, and luckily so did the Bruins organization. We kick this episode off with a few clips of your voicemails before we give our final thoughts on the Mitchell Miller signing and subsequent dismissal. Plus we touch on righting the ship ON the ice after a downer loss in Toronto. Kudos to Frederic! Kudos to Foligno! and of course... Predictions! GET IN!

This team is unreal right now, folks. Honestly. You couldn't ask for much more out of this team -- and then they go an do what they did in Pittsburgh. The Short Shift boys are back for another 90+ minutes of Boston Bruins hockey talk including Swayman and Forbort's injurys, Marchand coming out of the gate hot as hell with McAvoy coming up behind him.. Who's on the trading block to create the cap room? Plus we say goodbye to Studnicka and discuss what the B's got in return. We also talk about the Winter Classic logo release, Poitras' inability to not slewfoot and much more. VOICEMAILS. PREDICTIONS. SHORT SIXTY. THIS ONES GOT IT ALL. GET IN.

Aight folks, admittedly this team is putting us in a good mood. Some might say -- too good of a mood. There's some horniness is what I'm getting at. The Boston Bruins have taken 12 of a possible 14 points to start the year, Linus Ullmark looks fantastic, secondary scoring exists, and we're not even at full strength yet. Is it possible to have started any better? Also we discuss Marchand, Carlo, reverse retros. Plus PREDICTIONS, VOICEMAILS, and maybe we'll toss 60 seconds on the clock for good measure. THIS EPISODE IS AT FULL STRENGTH. GET IN.

Aight folks, just a week away from the start of the 2022-2023 season opener for YOUR Boston Bruins. Camp rolls on and there are some cuts/waiver moves to be discussed. Namely: Oscar Steen. Does he clear waivers? Is there a message being sent? We also discuss other camp noteables (for better or worse) such as Nosek, Foligno, McLaughlin and Johnny F'n Beecher. Plus: is the cause for concern regarding Taylor Hall's injury? Oh and WHY ARE ALL THESE MEDIA OUTLETS PICKING THE BRUINS TO WIN THE ATLANTIC?

The Short Shift Podcast officially kicks off our THIRD season with an episode full of Bruins and NHL hockey talk. First we give our immediate impressions on what we saw in the first two preseason games -- who's impressing, who's not. Then we dive headfirst into predictions on where we think the Bruins stand in the Atlantic Division including final point total, win total, and potential seeding. Then we take it a step further and predict not only the results of each division -- but the Stanley Cup Champions for the upcoming 2022-23 season. Plus all sorts of random side bets and predictions (serious or not). And lastly, we each give our BOLD TAKE of the year. Remember last year Andrew destroyed himself with Buffalo disrespect? Can he outdo himself? We shall see! This is a fun one. GET IN.

A Short Shift throwback with just the original hosts Thomas and Andrew, oh my! And a true short shift as the boys keep it under 40 minutes.. not on purpose though.

Another Short Shift?! Yep. Third episode in seven days -- in the offseason no less. This week has just been too damn interesting to not talk about Boston Bruins hockey. Special pinch hitter on this episode as we're joined by Downtown Boosy himself, Mr. Nick Busa who covered for our beloved Low Quality host, Ian. The focus of this epi is obviously Bruce Cassidy's press conference and what we're taking from it. Is his firing becoming more palatable -- or at least the reasoning becoming more clear? Who knows.. but it's time to opine and smash the record button. Speaking of buttons.. you know we gotta hit Boosy with the Short-Sixty!

Are we aight folks? Short Shift Podcast back at it again a few days ahead of schedule as news broke late Monday evening that the Boston Bruins have relieved coach Bruce Cassidy of his duties. Initial reaction on twitter was very mixed -- how are the boys feeling? Is this the right call? Did we, like many Bruins fans, read too little into Cam Neely's post season presser when he hinted at coaching changes? Who is available to be the successor? This story no doubt has dimmed the shine of other huge news out of Boston such as surgeries for Bergeron, McAvoy, Grzelcyk, Marchand, and Reilly -- many of whom are going to miss some time including the start of the regular season. So much wonderful news! Well, at least Patrice won his FIFTH Selke.. dear god please let him come back. All this PLUS YOUR VOICEMAILS. GET IN.

The 2022 NHL Playoffs have begun and the Bruins definitely got off on the wrong foot with loses in games 1 and 2 that were tough to swallow to say the least.

On this installment of the Short Shift Podcast the boys discuss the positivity surrounding this team as they head into a first round series with what appears to be the Carolina Hurricanes. Does Reilly play game one? And even before we get there.. Cassidy is “dressing the varsity” for Buffalo but it will look “a lot lighter” against Toronto, right decision? Or should Boston start resting players now with a spot all but on lock? Who's going to be the 7th Player Award winner? Plus some chatter about Zboril's next deal, DeBrusk taking the Masterton, Ullmark and Forbort playing their best hockey respectively, and so much more!

It was a great week until it wasn't. Our Boston Bruins got big wins over the arch-rival Canadiens, Tampa Bay Lightning and the New York Islanders only to put forth an uneven and mostly uninspiring effort against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Was it all bad? Not at all -- and the boys dive into that. Namely: Hampus Lindholm is very, very good. Lot's of other things to discuss on the show including defensive pairings, trades and a little Bussi talk.
