Post-Game Talk: Game 18 - Dobbie holds the fort - BRUINS 2 LA KIngs 1 F
- Thread starter Fenway
- Start date
a f***ing huge 27:53 of ice time...led all bruins D in icetime...actually led on BOTH teams.. Doughty only playing a measly 27:14 of ice time.
It makes a big difference having two quality centers in the top two lines.

Krejci definitely made a difference by being in the lineup. The team was able to hold possession better in the offensive zone, especially on the PP. The team continues to put forth tremendous effort. Eliminating the type of dumb errors they made last night was fairly key. Also Z was very good tonight. Not only scored a goal, but also frustrated LA a ton. I agree with those folks wanting Dobby to start on Saturday. Rask has had some bad luck, but the fact is that Dobby is playing excellent hockey and the team is getting points with him in net. No reason to not ride him while he is hot.
Oh yeah, Acciari deserves some credit for getting in the heads of LA early in the game. They seemed to be focused more on him than anything else for a stretch. The heavy game he brings had an impact tonight.

Good game by Khudobin, nice rebound control and very calm. I think Rask needs an extended break to get refocused. Play Khudobin in the next game.
Bruins halt four-game skid with win vs. Kings - The Boston Globe
LOS ANGELES – Lacking in firepower up front, the Bruins turned to their backline for offense Thursday night, receiving goals from defensemen Charlie McAvoy and Zdeno Chara for a tidy 2-1 win over the Kings here at the Staples Center.
McAvoy, without a point in eight straight games, provided the 1-0 lead in the first period, walking unimpeded to the top of crease to put a doorstep-to-backhander past ex-UMass goalie Jonathan Quick.
Chara, blanked in 12 of the last 13 games, broke the 1-1 deadlock in the second period with his second goal of the season, connecting on a slapper that deflected in off the Kings’ Trevor Lewis.
Anton Khudobin, solid throughout the night, turned away 27 shots and extended his undefeated record to 4-0-2. The victory snapped Boston’s season-long losing streak at 0-3-1 and came only 24 hours after a lackluster 4-2 loss to the Ducks in Anaheim.

I wouldn't tell the goose that lays the Golden eggs to double the output but I'd ask her is she wants to work some overtime to earn some extra cash
Khudobin would certainly be getting a game a week but I don't think we have the Russian Johnny Bower here
It's only going to work with
1. Rask being very good
2. Bergeron & Krejci healthy together
You can only go so far with Szwarz and Nash getting 20 + minutes as top 6 centers
A couple games a week but eventually you are exposed

Acciari is a very accomplished body checker but it's in the play contact not premeditated running around to get a spark.
The referees so far seem to respect this and his rep is clean and tough and honest
He's a player

He's earned a lot of starts - like at least once a week
They perfect scenario for me is Rask 2 times a week and no back to backs
Cassidy had a lot of success with Khudobin in Providence and it's paying off
I think Khudobin record with Claude last year was maybe 1-8 if that

Rask has got to be nursing some sort of injury no? He's never played this mediocre of hockey before. Good W last night but the numbers by our goalies is quite worrisome. Although we have seen backups take their team the distance. This one's a head scratcher.

Loved both games against Kings.
A lot of hard hits, clean game, Bergy vs Kopitar match up, two of my fav players, McAvoy vs Doughty, another two.
Dobby inspires confidence. Our defense was great and very aggressive in our end, routinely stripping pucks from them behind the net time after time. I like how Pasta shows some grit. It's a different team with Krejci back and it's much easier to combine rookies with an excellent, experienced playmaker.
