What Harry Sinden thinks of these record-setting Bruins, and other thoughts
Picked-up pieces while wondering if the Red Sox are in need of a Chaim-lich maneuver . . .
▪ The Bruins are favorites to win the Stanley Cup. They have four regular-season games remaining and a shot at the NHL’s all-time records for wins and points. They have a chance to go down in history as the greatest NHL team of all time.
Time to check in with Harry Sinden.
Harry is the Bear in Winter, the godfather of the Spoked-B, a man who came to the Bruins in 1961. He was Bruins head coach when 18-year-old, wiffle-haired Bobby Orr first played in Boston in 1966. Together, they won the Cup in 1970.
Harry will turn 91 in September, has been married to Eleanor for 70 years, and is still on the Bruins’ masthead as “Senior Advisor to the Owner and Alternate Governor.” He is the man who drafted Don Sweeney in 1984, and traded for Cam Neely two years later.

DHL Dan CLXV - Bruins Playoff Run Column
Shank calls his old pal Harry Sinden to get his take on this year's Boston Bruins:
And yet for dan to call the red sox ownership illusion of contention I didn't hear this fraud call out Harry for the way he ran the Bruins in the late 90s into the ground because what Harry did from 1996 to 2002 was the true definition of illusion of contention and during that time that fraud dan was silent. Where was dan when Bourque was traded to Denver to get ray his cup oh wait that fraud was to busy whining about sox fans booing clemens
