The Boston Bruins will not win the Stanley Cup this year. The Boston Bruins will not even advance to the second round of the playoffs. Sure, they could win tonight. You could even make the argument that they should be leading this series. But they will not get out of the first round of the playoffs this year.

I have come to accept this fact. Through the five stages of grief, you can join me in accepting this fact. Then we can move on to Chris Sale Red Sox season.

Denial

Anger

Bargaining

Depression

Acceptance

PS – The Celtics are screwed too.
