The City of Boston is planning another parade, and this time, it's for the Boston Bruins. The team won the Stanley Cup on Wednesday night by defeating the Vancouver Canucks, 4-0, in Game 7 of the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals, and they'll party with that Cup for two days before taking it to the streets for a celebration with the entire city.
Boston Mayor Thomas Menino announced on Thursday morning that the parade will be held at 11 a.m. ET on Saturday, June 18. No details just yet on the route that the it will take, but you can assume it'll take a similar course to that of the most recent parade in Boston, that of the Celtics in 2008.
That year, the route took the NBA champions from TD Garden, down Causeway Street to Stanford, around Cambridge past City Hall to Tremont, and then all the way down Boylston Street before wrapping near Copley Square and the Boston Public Library.
