Surely, surely, this is some sort of cosmic joke:
On Hockey: Bruins give up too much – The MetroWest Daily News:
Now, no offense to Wideman, but I saw him play back when he was with St Louis’ farm club in Worcester, the Ice Cats… and, umm… Dennis Wideman? For Brad Boyes? Really?

I bet Dan the CHB, if anybody points it out to him, would love to jump at the idea that Bobby Orr’s agent Alan Eagleson cursed the Bruins back in the day, and this is why they haven’t won a championship in 86… err, 36 years. In fact, he could just borrow his old Red Sox material, change a couple of names and dates, and he’s good to go. I’m surprised he hasn’t noticed this, himself, yet.
