Good stuff
This thing delivers again and again, covering the brightest and the darkest moments alike from the long, wonderful history of the Boston Bruins. There are no lulls to speak of, it's a constant stream of remarkable stories and invaluable archival footage. Eddie Shore might be the hardest man who ever lived and Milt Schmidt's story about taking out Rocket Richard is just hilarious. You get interviews with Bobby Orr, Cam Neely, Ray Bourque, Phil Esposito and even interjections and reflections from the new blood of the Bruins - Tim Thomas, Zdeno Chara and Milan Lucic. This is the entire story of my team (and if you're on this page reading reviews, it's probably yours, too) and I couldn't be happier with this buy and enthusiastically recommend it.
The Bruins have possibly the most interesting history of any team and lay claim to hockey's greatest player of all time:Bobby Orr. This video is wonderful; I felt like I was in Boston and thoroughly enjoyed it!
This is an excellent 2 Disc comprehensive history of the Boston Bruins. Whether you are a Bruins fan or a hockey buff, this set will not disappoint. From it's early beginnings to the present, all aspects of the team are covered. It contains several photos, interviews and comments from past players to the present. The archive footage will please any Bruins fan. We get to see the progression of uniforms and equipment and how the game was played. A nostalgic look at the Boston Garden and the winning of the Stanley Cup still evokes a feeling of pride any Bruins fan can enjoy.
This is a fantastic synopsis of the history of the Boston Bruins, from it's inception as the first American Hockey team all the way to present day. Watching the Big Bad Bruins of the '70's brought back a lot of memories for me growing up in Maine and listening to the B's on the radio or watching on WSBK TV w/ Fred Pierson doing the play by play. I highly recommend this DVD set for anyone who has a true passion for the Bruins or any Original Six hockey team.
Highly recommended, not only for Bruins-fans.Hope there will be a 10+ DVD-set with "Greatest Games" by the Bruins soon,with a lot of (early/pre-knee injured) Bobby Orr-games (others than the 2 games available on the Flyers-10 DVD-box!!!
DVD skips a lot and is garbled. Was given as a gift and recipient just tried to play it. NOT IN ACCEPTABLE CONDITION.
Love the Bruins and liked the movie but was hoping for more. Good movie for a brief history of the Bruins.
Must have for any Boston Bruins fan. Great content and very well done. Highly recommended for any hockey fan in general as well.
Great gift
Dramatic well presented overview of the storied NHL Franchise unfortunately omits or skips over seminal Bruins Stars of the 1950s such as Fleming MacKell, Doug Mohns, Leo Boivin, Veteran Goalie Harry Lumley & Captain Don McKenney, thus this incomplete view of a particular era in the team`s history leaves a puzzled audience wondering how such a fundamental gap could have occured!!.Especially vexing as Video of these Bruins stalwarts is available..Unforgivable!...Nice portraits of the fabled UKE Line & Willie O`Ree, the 1rst Black player in the NHL!!..An incomplete picture that one hopes will be amended!!
