Has to be a more focused effort today than against the Canes. If not, simply another home loss coming. I have faith the B`s will win a rare one on home ice today

4-2

[HuskyBruinPride]

Wish I could catch this one but working overnights all week is killing me so I'll be asleep very soon.

Hoping for a solid game, these are the kind of games they need to continue to show up for as NYI looks like another playoff bound team.

Played better last game... the assist to Pasta was sick... but agreed. Skating game has not been there at all.

I had to post this gem CamFan made me a few years ago

Have to disagree. 1 good pass doesn't cut it for me. His decision making has been almost rookie like. Giving the puck up to Carolina in OT 1 on 3 instead of maintaining possession was rediculous. His last 15-20 games he has seemed very disinterested. He said he wanted Ericsson to stay. The team backed him up on this. It is time for him to reward them for this. A Krejci playing like he did the first quarter of the season paired with Bergeron the way he is playing now would make this team very hard to beat.

Beautiful. Well, as beautiful as I think we will see with this personnel.

Important game. Based on StubHub ($130+ upper balcony) fans were paying BIG for this game and I hope the team rewards that loyalty.

 

[TCL40]

Almost game time-just got in from walking the dog-time for the Bruins to play hard and win this!

 

[RedeyeRocketeer]

Are we seriously still on page 1 ? wow

 

[TCL40]

And just gotta say-I hate seeing Boychuk in an Islanders uniform.

 

[Dueling Banjos]
