Now 8-1-1 in their last 10 games, the Bruins haven’t enjoyed such a wealth of positive numbers, and downright rollicking mojo, since their astounding, record-setting 2022-23 season. For those yet to recover from the rude, abrupt ending of April 1923, our sincere condolences.

Sweezey was called up by the Bruins on Jan. 16 on an emergency basis after Andrew Peeke exited Thursday’s win over the Seattle Kraken with a lower-body injury. He did not play Saturday against the Chicago Blackhawks. A Hanson native, Sweezey has not played in an NHL game since the 2022-23 season when he was with the Columbus Blue Jackets.
