    Season 7, Episode 273

    Show notes

    Aight folks -- we're back for another episode and dive directly into the Canes game. What are the biggest takeways? There's plenty of room for positivity -- as well as negativity. There is, however, no room for Dylan Larkin. VOICEMAILS. PREDICTIONS. MULTIPLE BEERS. GET IN.

  2. Ep.272 - Marat Deal: Sweeney Stacking Dubs

    Season 7, Episode 272

    Show notes

    Does this team actually fuck? The Bruins just wrapped a great road trip despite the OT loss in Dallas to end it. 7-2-1 is just an incredible start to the season. And now Marat signs an extremely team friendly extension just adding to the positives around the youth movement in the organization. Where's the negatives? Zadorov (or his agent's) drama? Meh. No time for that. Joy is being found and we're heading back to the garden. GET IN.

    Season 7, Episode 271

    Show notes

    Aight folks, we're all back at it. Bruins are in the middle of a west coast swing and it's a great time to reflect on the start to the season this team has had. McAvoy is back. Poitras is exceeding expectations. And is Minten driving the wagon? (You can't be mean to Ian about this). GET IN.

  6. Ep.268 - Doing Captain Shit

    Season 6, Episode 268

    Show notes

    Aight folks -- Thomas, Andrew and Ian are back and we're already halfway through the 4 game preseason slate. Still no captain announced (unless you follow Tottenham), no movement yet for the now-injured Mason Lohrei as well as Mathew Poitras -- and you'd have to assume something will give very soon. Plus; YOU'RE VOICEMAILS ARE BACK. GET IN.

  9. Ep.265 - The WAY Too Early SEASON PREDICTIONS Episode

    Season 6, Episode 265

    Show notes

    Aight folks, Andrew insisted we do this. Ian was into it. Thomas was too high on paint fumes to fight it. It's time for the 2026-2027 season PREDICTIONS episode. We pick divisions, we pick Stanley Cup finals, and we pick the cup winners. We also make some bold predictions and other season superlatives or whatever. Just shut up and GET IN.

    Season 6, Episode 264

    Show notes

    Aight folks, off-season rolls on with another episode of the Short Shift Podcast. This episode contains strong opinions on a certain beverage and I am not even a little bit sorry about it. An hour of hockey talk? Debatable. GET IN.

    Season 6, Episode 261

    Show notes

    Aight folks, we obviously have to acknowledge Thursday's news that Patrice Bergeron's number 37 is going to be immortalized in the Garden --- but we have a lot of season predictions to revisit. We brought the big spoons out to shovel in the crow. Plus your voicemails and much more! GET IN.

  14. Ep.260 - Worst Case Scenario Stanley Cup

    Season 6, Episode 260

    Show notes

    Aight folks, this is the nightmare finals matchup -- at least for one of us. There is light at the end of the tunnel, however.. because the Leaf's may be choosing between Peter Laviolette or Patrick Roy for their head coach vacancy. Either way -- we're going to LOVE making fun of that. GET IN.

  15. Ep.259 - The Clean 30

    Season 6, Episode 259

    Show notes

    With Thomas unavailable much of this week -- Andrew and Ian volunteered to touch on a few topics surrounding the NHL playoffs, drama with coaches, and perhaps a few notes on the Boston Bruins. Their goal was to keep it to a "clean 30" minute episode.. so I present to you.. one hour and 16 minutes.

    Aight folks, new episode and a new mindset emerging as we start talking offseason.

    Show notes

    Aight folks, it's our yearly eulogy episode. Early than we wanted, later than we would have expected last off-season. Lots to unpack here. The itinerary was but a guideline.

    Season 6, Episode 256

    Show notes

    Aight folks, the Bruins have extended the series to Game 6 on the back of Jeremy Swayman with a nod to Pastrnak with a huge OT winner. Can they solve their playoff home woes and force this back to Buffalo? Pasta seems to think so.

  19. Ep.255 - Sabre Rattled

    Season 6, Episode 255

    Show notes

    Aight folks -- I'm typing this from my hotel lobby and I did not edit this any further than tossing the intro and "mf go b's" outro on the audio file I was sent. So who knows, this might just be an hour + of Andrew and Ian dogwalking me and calling me "Daddy" in a multitude of unflattering ways. However, my hope is that they talk about this BRUINS/SABRES PLAYOFF SERIES and HOW B'S IN 5 IS STILL ON THE TABLE.

    I just jinxed it, didn't I. I'm sorry. Go B's. GET IN.
