[Fair Warning]

Glad that experiment is over. Now to find someone who can replace him that isn't named Jay Pandolfo.

He should help the Baby B's out, so there's that.

 

[Rubber Biscuit]

Wow. Guess the experiment's over. Or a move's coming.

 

[Gee Wally]

he should pass through no problem and the get assigned to baby bs.

 

[KnightofBoston]

Feel bad for him, he has skills and gave effort but he's just not an NHL player

 

[Grasshopperking]

Liked him but didn't fit. No doubt he has skills, just doesn't work at this level

 

[Morris Wanchuk]

Boom.. waivered!

 

[Over the volcano]

If this is to make room for pandolpho, I do not like.

 

[Sevren]

I agree with you. The guy has speed and works hard but just can't make things happen in the NHL. I feel bad for him as well because after spending so many years in the AHL he finally had a real chance. Played for a good team, got some PP time, even a shootout attempt. And now back to AHL. I would be so depressed if I was him.

 

[smithformeragent]

Make him the power play coach.

 

[BruinsBtn]

If the Bruins were a rebuilding team, I'd give him a long leash. But on a team that expects to compete for the Cup, it was tough to watch him struggle.

Who is in the lineup tonight? Pandolfo?

 

[The Depahted]

So this means Soderberg is coming over right?

 

[BB624]

Pandolfo already on roster.

 

[BIG BAD BRUINS]

Yes!!!!!! Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

 

[CrownofThornton]

Kind of agree.

Not saddened at all by this news, but he did have hustle to his game.

I bet pandofolo sits and Mcdermind draws into, what expects to be a physical affair. Paille bumped up to 3rd line.

 

[11MilesPerJohan]

Despite him being Ray's son, the Bs have moved on from him as predicted. Name had ZERO to do with him being on the roster. He was here until a better option was available or some of the other prospects proved their worth in Providence. I suspect we will find out about the next shoe to drop very shortly.

 

[Hnidy Hnight]

Wow, went from playing the point with the game at stake Tuesday, to being waived today

 

[Shaun]

I'm suddenly feeling a lot better.

 

[SPLBRUIN]

Glad to see that the Bourque experiment is finally over, but I sure as heck hope we can do a lot better then Pandolfo. I would far rather see Lane M play than Pandolfo.

 

[doubleminor138]

In all likelyhood, he should remain in the system and be a call up candidate. Fine by me.

 

[SPLBRUIN]

Only if there are 7-8 guys to be called up ahead of him.

 

[Ivyy13]

Thank God.. I hope the Bruins actually make a move instead of moving Paille to the 3rd line and having Pandolfo/McDermaid on the 4th line.. It's still just as bad.

 

[Kaoz*]

This would be great if there were a far better option.

I see it more of a "meh" thing.

Could not agree more but his skill set at his size does not work for NHL
