The Boston Bruins took to the basketball court to warm up on Thursday.
The video was an immediate reminder that they should, and I cringe writing this, #sticktohockey.

Let’s see. There’s a missed free throw and then four missed layups. This is Washington Generals bad.
For once, I agree with Brad.
Point is to get it in the basket u guys are brutal

The Bruins’ basketball tradition dates back several years as the team would play knockout before games. Here’s Marchand doing what he does best.

I do want to give props to the Bruins. It’s refreshing to see a team roast itself on social media considering the PR-y environment in the NHL bubble right now. Then again, maybe I should temper my praise. It’s possible someone stole their phone and posted it online for them.
