What are /r/BostonBruins' favorite Products & Services?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

It's a Storm Warning flag, used to warn ships about incoming Storms. When 2 flags are stacked it means the incoming storm will have Hurricane force winds. Next hurricane season look around weather.com and you'll see the flags everywhere when they are talking about Hurricanes.

On a side note I actually really like those Jerseys, I've said that all year and was super psyched to see them used in the playoffs, however at that time i didn't expect to meet them in the Playoffs, so RIP back to hating them.

After further digging, I found this TT autograph on Amazon:

Looks similar ;)

Welcome to the Bruins family! If you want to get into the history of the team, I recommend reading a couple of books that as a lifelong Bruins fan I really enjoyed:

If These Walls Could Talk: Boston Bruins

Orr: My Story

There are several other really good books, but these are two of my favorites.

I downloaded the torrent from our hockey loving Russian friends! You should be able to make an account easily enough. The Chrome browser can translate the page as well.

PS: This is such great hockey!!!

Hopefully this fits the bill. Included a PNG version and a vector illustrator version for making the patch.

On another note im back from school, and finals are done so I can get back to being on here more! Woo!

1. Depends on the VPN, supposedly NordVPN works.
2. If you're trying on a mobile device, it'll still try to use location services and can possibly still black you out based on device location (or if location is disabled).

/u/ddonovan86 and /u/moosaca I ordered it on Amazon here. It's really good quality. Even has a velcro closure at the neck. Tried finding one in stores (Petco, etc.) but had no luck.

Look up Smart DNS, I use Unlocator. You point your PC or router at them when you want to watch an NBC or playoff game, and they make your traffic look like it's coming from out of the country. It violates the TOS, but honestly, blackouts are where I draw the line. I paid for the service to show my support. I'm watching every damn game.

Yes it's an additional cost, but I think you can pay for just a few months to be able to watch the playoffs.

They're still blacking out local games - the difference is now they are offering discounted 'team packs' that will include all out-of-market games for a specific team.

Best bet is subbing for a VPN such as Private Internet Access ($40/year) or DNS Service like AdFreeTime ($2/month) and using those to get around GameCenter blackouts.

The benefit is full HD streams, some privacy in general browsing, no bloated cable bills - plus GameCenter is $99 instead of $170 when you VPN from out of the US.

Ninja Edit: There have been local blackout lawsuits pending for a few different sports. I expect and hope these will be gone soon, as cable companies begin to (hopefully) lose some of their pull.

I swear I'm not picking on you. What's the incentive to read this when I could watch the NHL.com highlights? I would suggest finding an editor as well; at the very least read a style guide. The Elements of Style (Strunk) is one of the more popular ones. If you want people to read your blog and take it seriously you have to make sure the writing is as clear as possible. Make sure to fact check as well. It was the fifth game against Montreal.

Christ, sorry. That's so classless. If I saw someone doing that I'd break their nose and arrest them no matter what jersey they are wearing. I have done that before.

Read the article. They take cost and team success into account.

>The Bruins didn't raise season ticket prices like they did last year, but it still costs a fortune to be a hockey fan in Boston. The average get-in-the-door cost at TD Garden is almost $89, second highest in the NHL and $11 more than any other American team. Parking is an extortionate $42, six times more than Blue Jackets backers pay. Add in the on-ice struggles, and it's easy to see why affordability and bang for the buck (Boston is 114th in both) are among the lowest in professional sports.

http://www.espn.com/espn/story/_/id/17816613/espn-magazine-2016-ultimate-standings

Criteria:

Affordability (12.2%): Price of tickets, parking and concessions

Coaching (2.8%): Strength of on-field leadership

Fan relations (27.2%): Courtesy by players, coaches and front office toward fans, plus how well a team uses technology to reach fans

Ownership (12.8%): Honesty; loyalty to core players and the local community

Players (14.7%): Effort on the field, likability off it

Stadium experience (11.7%): Quality of arena; fan-friendliness of environment; frequency of game-day promotions

Title track (3.9%): Championships won or expected within the lifetime of current fans

Bang for the buck (14.7%): Wins in the past two years per fan dollar, adjusted for league schedules

Theyre expensive, and havent been very good lately. The Bruins also have the 9th oldest NHL rink, built in 95, and an ownership most of us hate.

They're 114th/122 in two categories totaling 26.9% of their criteria.

NHL Boston Bruins CCM Pullover Hoodie, Medium, Black/Yellow https://www.amazon.com/dp/B008B1CO2M/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_7hduub1ZJST8D

Does that work for you, if not just search ccm bruins hoodie and see if it pops up on your end.

>I'm pretty sure the premier style is iron on?

The Premier style can be ironed on or sewn, it really depends on the retailer. I'm pretty sure that the NHL licenses the jersey - and then the seller is responsible for sewing or ironing numbers/names.

I have a Chara home jersey purchased from eBay and everything is sewn. My Lucic away jersey - direct from the NHL store - is ironed on.

Also, I think the away jerseys are slightly different than the home ones when it comes to the name patch anyway. My Chara jersey has a long, fabric name patch that's sewn on (like the authentic jersey), and the away is a weird iron-on nylon square (which also looks like the road authentic jersey), so an iron on isn't necessarily fake.

Raspberry Pi, a light, an old speaker, an internet connection, some plastic, a gardening cage, and a little spare time.

You could also just have IFTTT play "Zombie Nation" from your phone every time the Bruins/NHL app registers a goal.

Barissimo - it's one of the seasonal coffees from Aldi's. I cannot recommend it highly enough, so if you're interested, I found some (at a ridiculous markup, but maybe if you look around through the sellers you can find it cheaper) on Amazon

S'okay, I love answering it! :D It's from a company called Barissimo, who I guess handle all the seasonal, limited-time coffees for ALDI's markets; a buddy of mine does all his shopping there and he picked up a bunch for me.

You can get some now on Amazon if you're so inclined, though it's a touch pricy; I have done this myself in the past, and do not regret it.

It's a fantastic Evening Coffee - rich flavor, much mellower than the Bustelo's kick, and I swear it tastes like someone poured a shot of bourbon into the mug before you start drinking. I take my coffee light and sweet and it's not as vulnerable to the whole "too much sugar so now it's cloying" bit that some flavored coffees can reach.

These are the washers that are used, for anyone interested:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073RTMGMX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

so this is the brand I'm drinking; the friend who got me some for my birthday said it was a seasonal flavor at Aldi's, so if they bring it back it'd be somewhere in the February area

I love the stuff

A buddy of mine got me some for my birthday back in February; he said it was an Aldi's seasonal special. When I needed more I had to hit Amazon; this is the brand I've been hooked on.

The flavoring is spot-on, not like a lot of flavored coffee where you can barely taste whatever flavor they claimed to add

Private Internet Access is $40 / year and has good privacy policies.

If a VPN is free, you're the product. Don't trust privacy from those. Then again, if you're only using them during games it isn't that big of a deal.

By the way, for the record?

If These Walls Could Talk: Boston Bruins is a fun and readable little tome that I enjoyed quite a lot

They make these foldable boxsprings which are clutch https://www.amazon.com/Zinus-Mattress-Foundation-Structure-Assembly/dp/B0077UCFXG Only say that because getting in and out of bed becomes a dream.

Wish I had Authentic’s of most but if I find it I’ll sell the replica after it. I have the 2010/16 ones but both premiers. And then an adidas 2019.

Even finally found a 2011 premier with vector. Just patience is key. Goal is to find a CCM Authentic from the 90’s that won’t break the bank.

Sorry for the re-post, it was buried in a comment

YouTube TV launched relatively recently. It has NESN included in the basic package. Not sure how well it works though or if anything like local blackouts apply, I've only just glanced at their website.

On Brick's comment about what made Jerry so good as an analyst:

Most people don't realize this but Jerry wrote a book called Watching Baseball. It is not a book about his years in the booth. It is literally a book about how to watch baseball. What to look out for, what the minor little things can tell you about a team or a player's tendencies, how to enjoy the experience of watching about 45 minutes of action spread out over three and a half hours.

It is a masterpiece, and I love it, and it is the perfect example of what made Jerry so damn good. He never assumed you knew everything. He found a way to teach even an expert.

God, I miss him.

If you enjoy reading, I highly recommend the following:

If These Walls Could Talk: Boston Bruins

Orr: My Story

"If These Walls..." is an awesome collection of Bruins history by Dale Arnold who was a longtime broadcaster for the team. "My Story" is the autobiography of arguably the best player & defenseman of all time, Bruins legend, Bobby Orr.

Welcome to the Bruins family!

Those are gorgeous bud! That sour cream drizzle is on point.

Can I suggest a getting some Tajìn for the salt rim? Half and half with salt. Shit is incredible

not sure about those exact hats (you could probably ask in the youtube comments after the next pod), but i found this similar one on amazon, though i wish i had a non amazon source lmao

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07QVD8Z4N/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1&psc=1

i love it lmao

​

Here ya go.

Now you can in VR!!

Yeah, YTTV just checks your location every week or so, so if you live in Boston and went on a trip for a few days, it wouldn't be an issue.

The only options i know of are setting up your own OpenVPN server at a friend/family's house you can remote into, or seeing if something like NordVPN has a Boston server (but they didn't the last time I looked)

I use (student discount and use vpn to get it for $78) with Unlocator smart DNS proxy and it worked flawlessly last season. You could use any good VPN or SmartDNS service to get around the blackouts

As far as bypassing the blackout restrictions, Unlocator works beautifully with Apple TV, but after the recent updates to the NHL app, I have only been able to bypass blackouts on Apple TV, not any other devices.

Do you have NHL Gamecenter? If so download Google Chrome and the extension Zenmate and change your location to Switzerland (they have the fastest bandwidth). That way you can watch it right off of
