The award covered March 1, 2011 through Feb. 29, 2012, covering their Stanley Cup victory on June 15 last year. In addition to their victory in the finals over the Canucks, the Bruins’ “involvement in numerous charitable contributions to the Greater Boston community” was also recognized, according to a press release.

    The Bruins should fire the General Manager it has. He let go a second Stanley Cup by not sighning the most contributing free agents on the team last year and some bad trades. He is definately not a knowledgeable hockey person.
