Boston Bruins Announce Busy National Television Schedule

The Boston Bruins will have their share of nationally televised games as TNT announced that more than a handful of B’s games will air on their network this season, as they continue to count down until Boston Bruins training camp.

The New York Rangers and Pittsburgh Penguins, a pair of traditional powerhouse hockey TV markets with marquee players, lead all NHL teams with seven national appearances on TNT while the Boston Bruins, Tampa Bay Lightning and Colorado Avalanche are next with six scheduled appearances on the national cable network.
