Everywhere you go you see people wearing Lucic and Thomas shirts, spoked-wheel logos in the windows of bars with the word “Believe” underneath, Network TV crews all around the Garden. The Hub of Hockey is restored.

This Stanley Cup series was phenomenal. I know the ratings paled compared to what they get for NFL, NBA and even MLB, but the viewing #’s were up, it was awesome TV and the announcers, with their quirky Canadian accents, were outstanding. Geico and Verizon got a ton of exposure from their sponsorship deals, not that either needs much more exposure. And the NHL “No Words” spot was in the same league as NBA’s Amazing, IMHO.

At Mullen, we’re damn proud of what the Boston Bruins have done and proud to have been their partner on the Bruins Hockey Rules campaign the past couple of years. Roll-out the Victory Dance video one more time. The Bruins are Stanley Cup Champions!

At last an answer to the age-old question http://www.mullen.com/2011/04/where-do-bears-go-at-last-an-answer-to-the-age-old-question/ http://www.mullen.com/2011/04/where-do-bears-go-at-last-an-answer-to-the-age-old-question/#comments Thu, 07 Apr 2011 14:21:47 +0000 Mullen http://www.mullen.com/?p=7654 It’s one week until the NHL Playoffs begin and we Bruins fans, and even Coach Claude Julien, have many questions. Who will the Bruins play in the opening round – Canadiens, Sabres, Rangers? Are we ready to make a championship run? Will the hard-nosed Shawn Thornton win the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy for perseverance, sportsmanship and dedication to hockey?

While we await answers to these excellent questions, we do have the answer to an age-old riddle courtesy of our friend The Bear.

 

Good luck to the Bruins in the playoffs and don’t forget to grab your playoff tickets. This feels like it could be the year of the Bear.

So it’s no time for any wayward fan to break the Bruins Hockey Rules, as this poor guy found out.

And the Bear is out of hibernation hitting the sports bars around the TD Garden and enforcing the rules for the 2010-2011 season. In search of new material, the Bruins are inviting the fans to bring the funny. Write a new Bruins Hockey Rule and you might get some TV time.

Some of our early favorite lines are:

This moment of locker room bonding can only bode well as the Bruins head to Fenway Park on January 1st to take part in the Winter Classic against the Philadelphia Flyers. Because as we all know, when a 7-foot bear and an NHL superstar exchange gifts, only good things can come from that. Our prediction … Bruins: 4  Flyers: 2.
