Bruins Nation

I was on a little vacation but now I'm back. The Bruins however were very busy:

• The Bruins acquired goalie Manny Fernandez from the Minnesota Wild for Petr Kalus and a 4th round pick in the 2009 draft. I don't know how this really helps. Yes we now have a reliable goaltender (which we have in Thomas already), but Fernandez is a huge cap hit earning over 4 million dollars a season.

• the Boston Bruins picked up free agent right winger Shawn Thornton, a very underrated player from the Championship Ducks team.

• the Bruins re-signed defensemen BBobby Allen

• the Bruins re-signed winger and team tough guy Jeremy Reich

• the Bruins re-signed defensemen Dennis wideman

• And the Bruins announced their 2007-2008 regular season schedule
