Blog Critique

This is a hockey blog about the Boston Bruins. The blog is very well written and visually entertaining. Every story has a set of pictures positioned in the text that add humor and substance. Sometimes the writer even uses gifs (very short videos) which are even more visually enticing.

 The blog has a colorful header, a sidebar full of links to previous blog posts and links to other Boston Bruins websites. As a Bruins fan myself I enjoyed the blog enough to consider following it on a regular basis. However, the writer clearly has a very biased opinion when it comes to the NHL and any fan other than a Bruins fan may not enjoy the blog with the sam enthusiasm. There are even gifs poking fun at Bruin rivals such as the Montreal Canadians.

The writer uses a great combination of stats and sports facts with humor to make the posts informing and comical. The blog is useful to either check the outcome of a game you missed or to just hear the compelling humor of the author.
