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:
“However strongly they resist it, our kids have to learn that as adults we need the companionship and love of other adults. The more direct we are about our needs, the easier it may be for our children to accept those needs. Their jealousy may come from a fear that if we adults love each other we might not have any left for them. We have to let them know that its a different kind of love.”
—Ruth Davidson Bell. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Womens Health Book Collective, ch. 3 (1978)
