Boston Bruins fans better blow the roof off in Game 6 because Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Tony DeAngelo is the gift that keeps on giving! DeAngelo called out Bruins fans Monday and couldn’t own his childish behavior in Game 4.

In case you missed it, DeAngelo challenged two teenage kids to a fight after Game 4 and my man Shukri Wright let her rip on the racist coward!

My respond to the Tom In Bridgewater call into @GreshKeefe on @WEEI that Tony DeAngelo challenged Tom’s two 16 year olds to “come down here” after being chirped by TEENAGERS. #NHLBruins #LetsGoCanes

The Boston Bruins could be getting defenseman Hampus Lindholm back for Game 5 tonight but won’t have fellow rearguard Charlie McAvoy who remains in COVID protocol.

The championship hearts of Boston Bruins captain Patrice Bergeron and linemate Brad Marchand are still beating strong for the Bruins and the main reason they enter Game 5 tied in the series.
