These guys won't stop talking.

And you can pretty much do it.

In perpetuity.

Yep.

Hurricanes at the garden.

To benefit Christmas in the city, come by with the unwrapped toy donation or monetary donation, will be here until 6 and we'll be over outside of Lodge 16 at the garden, helping them collect 50-50 raffle tickets, which again will benefit in the city that's the deal joining us now here from Hurricanes is

one of the voices of the Boston Bruins Bob beers who's been doing this

since I'm gonna guess your year 97 98 close so but I am like Michael you're

right the first guys 97 that was your was your first year. 97. I was going to guess 87. Am I that old? That's why you have baseball on your screen and he has hockey on the screen with you. And that was, that was, Newmey was still doing it then, wasn't he? Newmy was, I worked three years with Bob Newmire, that was good. So he did it five years, right? He did with Barry Peterson the first year. Yeah. And then Brickley went over to TV. And then his third year, so I did it three, four, five with him. And then it ended up and changed over to date gocha yeah okay yeah bobby how are they

doing this yeah right how are they doing this uh hard work and identity so beginning of the season

they talked about a few points that they needed to improve on them they needed to prove on everything

after last year we knew that right goal tending had to be better check you know swain has been much better whatever the

reason was for last year and you know contract wise and everything else that's been

much better structure defensively has been better health has been a little bit

better right they were missing mackavoie and lynholm for a lot of last year those guys

are healthy now. Finally healthy together. Zedorov's got another year under his belt, so he's kind of settled in a little bit and been really good on the back end. Peak has really stepped up. So defensively, they've been good. Special teams, they've been way better. Penalty killings dipped a little bit here in the last four games. They were top 10 for a while.

Now they're down to I think 17th, if I'm not mistaken. But power play's been real good and a threat every game.

And now they're up to fifth. So, or at least they were as of yesterday. So those areas had to be better.

And then the compete level. The compete level had to

be way better than it was last year. And they might be honestly, they're probably the toughest

team in the league. You think so? Oh, yeah. Yeah. They're something toughest. You mean physically

tough? Like post-wistle toughness?
