Ice in June

I'm feeling pretty cold towards the "news"paper these days, can you tell?

The rolling rally: what you need to know

Corporations carry costs of Bruins’ duck boat parade

Police urge revelers to keep lid on Bruins celebration

Over 60 and overjoyed
It has been a long 39-year wait for the men who still suit up every week in Saugus, hoping to see the rebirth of bygone days of Bruins hockey glory, which they recall like yesterday, those grainy, black-and-white images they watched intently on tiny televisions.

Fans scramble to stores as Bruins swag sells out

Loyal Bruins fans dress the part for celebration

Black and gold all over
Sirens wailed, air horns blasted, and the sky filled with confetti yesterday, as hundreds of thousands of raucous, roaring fans who had waited 39 years for this moment celebrated the return of the Stanley Cup to Boston with a giant, joyous rally for the city’s latest champions. 

The true measure of devotion
The six Gurskis rose at 3 a.m. yesterday, climbed into a van before dawn, and motored three hours from Maine to Boston to bask in the wonder of a Stanley Cup victory parade.
Oh, I love a parade protest, but I guess that would be raining on some others parade, huh?
