Boston Bruins Coverage
Bruins coverage began in 1984 with Fred Cusick and Johnny Peirson as play-by-play as analyst respectively for both NESN's games (mostly home contests) as well as WSBK's coverage of mainly away games. In 1985, NESN dropped Pierson and added Dave Shea. Terry O'Reilly joined to the telecasts the following season. When O'Reilly left NESN to become head coach of the Bruins, Derek Sanderson became the analyst.
NESN broadcast some games of the 1988 and 1990 Stanley Cup Finals' in the United States. The Bruins lost to the Edmonton Oilers for a both times, winning only one game in the two series. Game 4 in 1988 was moved to Northlands Coliseum due to a power failure at Boston Garden in the 2nd period.

Famous quotes containing the word boston:
“To get time for civic work, for exercise, for neighborhood projects, reading or meditation, or just plain time to themselves, mothers need to hold out against the fairly recent but surprisingly entrenched myth that good mothers are constantly with their children. They will have to speak out at last about the demoralizing effect of spending day after day with small children, no matter how much they love them.”
—Wendy Coppedge Sanford. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Womens Health Book Collective, introduction (1978)
