In what way has he earned his top 6 minutes? He's been horrid. Krejci too.
Not funny. A deserving demotion. Plus, Eriksson makes up for Spooners defensive decencies. Win win, IMO.

 

[NotedToughGuyDKrejci]

Never thought I'd see a late season NHL team's PIMs leader at 54.

 

[13Hockey]

If we win I believe it will be the 1st time this season we will have a .500 record at Home

 

[Fenway]

That is correct currently 15-16-4

I figured by March the home and road records would even out but that has not happened and I am at a loss why. We kid about the Bruins coming home and having to deal with infants could be the reason but now we have to concede that is a possible cause.

The 09-10 Bruins not nearly as good as this years team on the road as they were the 6 seed with just 91 points but they finished 18-17-6 at Home...hopefully we finish with a better record at home than that team

But did go 5-2 at Home in the playoffs

Losing games 5,7 vs the flyers

 

[13Hockey]

In 2010-11 the Bruins were

38-21-9- 85 points...After 68 Games

This year

38-23-7- 83 Points....After 68 games

It was 6 years ago this week when THIS happened




I remember this like it was yesterday. I was feeling lightheaded early that Sunday morning and went to Mt Auburn Hospital who then shipped me to the Brigham as they thought ( proven wrong ) it may have been a heart issue.

So I am now wired with every heart monitor known to modern man when Cooke slams Savard. The nurses station called a 'Code Blue' on me as monitors went nuts.

Whoops I was wrong

On December 16th the Bruins reached .500 at Home for the 1st time all season with a Win to improve to 7-7-2

On December 18th the Bruins got over .500 at Home for the 1st time beating NJ to improve to 8-7-2

December 29th the Bruins beat Ottawa to go to 9-9-2 this is the last time we have had a .500 record on Home Ice this season

I remember sitting on the couch with me Dad flipping out that was such a horrible moment...Even my Mom who I think I have heard swear maybe 3x in my life in front of me dropped a few curse words ha

I love the Bs they have brought me so much joy in my life...But I also think they will be responsible for taking a few years off my life when my time comes haha....This team has been an emotional roller coaster over the years

 

[RedeyeRocketeer]

This is a must have game. Can't afford to leave these points out there now. Can I be nervous about it being at home?

 

[Alicat]

I can't watch that video. I cry every time I see it.

I had just seen him so happy the day before in Long Island. I was staying at the hotel and they were getting coffee in the lobby Starbucks. They were heading to their pre game breakfast meeting.

Ironically, Michael Ryder got booted from the game for boarding Blake Comeau and Savvy was yelling bs at the ref who wanted to keep a lid on the game. Bruins won the game

I also remember that he was dressed really nice too.

I cherish that I was able to see him play his last game..

Now I'm sad..

 

[TP]

Whatever

 

[ODAAT]

don`t play down to the competition boys and you`ll be fine

 

[BMC]

Never thought I'd see a late season NHL team's PIMs leader at 54.

That's pathetic

 

[BsEuphoria]

don`t play down to the competition boys and you`ll be fine

This can't be stated enough. This late in the year good teams don't squander points like this. Show us your a good team.

Players I want to see get back into things a bit:

Whole second line, specially DK.

 

[KrejciMVP]

I hope we have Liles for this game

 

[eightspokedb]

Happiest Birthdays to 2U's, 2K's, 2 Pts today....

 

[Oates2Neely]

I hope we have Liles for this game

This. Don't want him out of the lineup he looked solid with Chara & overall he's been a calming veteran influence on the blue line

 

[Boston BROin]

Yeah, it can't be understated how much the Bruins need to win this game. There are going to be some tough moments coming up. After this game the Bruins have the Islanders, Sharks, Ducks, Kings, Rangers and Panthers. The Bruins WILL lose. People WILL freak out. That can be OK if you collect all the points you can before this ridiculous trip coming up.

 

[BBB24]

Actually you saying this is funny. Only reason he is on the third line is because he helps defensively as that line was struggling with that aspect of their game. The great thing about Loui is how he can help anywhere any forward position. No worries about him on the third line as he still gets big minutes as he kills penalties and on the first PP unit. Just to funny "he is horrid"

 

[Mpasta]

It's that time of the year again when every GDT is filled with "this is a must win game".
