DEEP-DIVE: Bruins' Nov-Dec Schedule Not Very Festive PLUS Is Chinakhov a Trade Target?

In this episode of Locked On Boston Bruins, host Ian McLaren breaks down the team’s 2025-26 schedule for November and December. From key divisional matchups against Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal to a challenging West Coast road trip, Ian examines the Bruins’ chances of climbing back into the playoff race after a rocky start. He also dives into the latest news out of Columbus, where Yegor Chinakhov has requested a trade — and whether Boston should be a potential landing spot. The episode wraps with a tribute to retiring goaltender Jaroslav Halak and his strong contributions during his time with the Bruins. Throughout the episode, Ian offers sharp insight on where the team stands — and what it will take to gain momentum heading into 2026.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!IndeedNow, you can speed up your hiring process with a $75 Sponsored Job Credit. Just go to Indeed.com/LOCKEDON right now and support our show by saying you heard about Indeed on this podcast.
