BRUINS GDT ECSF GAME 4 6:41 PM - NHL assigns 2 clowns for the game - TBS, truTV, MAX, CBC, SN, TVAS, 98.5 WBZ-FM

It seems as if hitting the goalie was a Burridge specialty, I saw another video of him running Patrick Roy. It was definitely a different game back then. The emergence of Matt Cooke type players was an unintended side effect of cracking down on fighting. Even notorious players like Claude Lemieux knew better than taking head shots because they knew they would have to answer the bell.

This is a good example of the team unity this team needs. Even Glen "where's your purse' Wesley was throwing down.

Careful, the NHL scrutiny has already begun. Zacha to be fined any moment.

Noted tough guy

LOL, why start now Pavel!?! I'm tired of his act. He's a 2nd-3rd liner, a complementary player in over his head. Really doing very little. Best suited for a no-check league. Devils fans had him pegged for what he is. At least Haula had pushback and not lip service.

13 shots in 10 playoff games thus far. 1 shot last game, 0 shots the game before. 2 shots in game 1 this series. Pretty meh given his lack of physicality/toughness.

Ahh, the fresh air of our own boards! Go Bruins!!!! Either win or beat the shit out of them. Or both.

 

[badbrewin]

It will help if our PP can get going.

Would also especially help if they could play hard enough to DRAW enough penalties

Yeah when you spend the majority of the game running around in your own end chasing Panther Players it doesn’t result in them getting penalized that’s for sure.

So on the Bennett thing, I seen two other instances of him doing the similar thing. He shoots left, and his top hand is right. He lets go of his left hand and places up high on the back and then comes up high around the head with the knob of his stick hanging out in his right hand, and sort of punches w the whole thing. Seeing the same thing in other videos makes me realize it’s a move he’s acquired through time. And dirty. No accident. Completely intentional.

He clotheslines people, he uses the momentum of both skaters to whip his hand holding the stick at players heads but does it during the hit so it looks like follow through or just collision.

 

[BTO]

The Bruins need to treat this as an elimination game. It's not literally, but essentially it has that importance and impact. Lose here and there's no coming back. So go out, put it all on the line, give whatever you've got left, and play like there's no tomorrow. Hope it's enough to tie the series and then see what happens from there. And give the home fans something to get behind.

If the Panthers prove too good, so be it, but don't just let them walk away with it. Make it a struggle.

And make it hurt too.

Been watching Bruins hockey for 55 years.

Me too.

 

[Fair Warning]

Florida is shivering in their skates over comments from a dude with a whopping 4 hits all series.

 

[BTO]

I hope so but trying to be something you're just not isn't a recipe for success.

Neither is being a pansy pushover.

 

[Gordoff]

Yet another weak-ass statement from a guy who should be irate.

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

I want to see at least one submarine on Tkachuk when he goes for another moon landing hit.

 

[DarrenBanks56]

looch you really effed up. this wouldve been the perfect series for you. dumbass

 

[Gordoff]

Florida fans leave early during a playoff win even with fighting. Tampa fans would never.

They have to hurry off to the big Cock Fighting event in the Swamps where the Revenuers kain't find 'em. It's gonna be a gully-whomper!

 

[Sheppy]

If the Bruins don’t come out looking for blood I’ll lose every ounce of respect for them.

 

[BTO]

Yeah, so how about you guys “load up” for a change?

 

[Gordoff]

Is Heinen going to come back or is he finished?

 

[Midship]

Yet another weak-ass statement from a guy who should be irate.

The whole team from the top down is way too nice.

 

[Byron Bitz]

Someone better sucker punch a star player on Florida

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

Maybe I’m a rapid fan but given the circumstances and pride of the org a stake I wouldn’t even be mad if some low rung B just takes a full ice sprint at one of the cats legs. They want to be dirty and take out the captain with a non hockey play we should return the favor and see how the cats do without Barkov for a playoff round or two. Earn the 15 game suspension is all I’m asking for.

These guys can't handle the FLA forechecking. Bunch of Wesleys out there.

It is time to be the hammer not the nail

 

[Mad-Marcus]

The biggest problem with this years B's is that they can't win faceoffs and take ill advised icings. Bad, bad, bad, combination.

 

[Gordoff]

It is time to be the hammer not the nail

It's past due and it ain't coming.
