Post-Game Talk: Game 28 B's keep grinding and bank 2 points - BRUINS 3 Detroit 2 F/OT

[Bruinaura]

The Bruins showed fight and the will to win when it mattered the most. The Bergeron line is just so elite.

Rask looked solid tonight.

I think Bjork needs to take a seat upstairs for a game or two. He's been fighting it since his return IMO.

If it works for him like it did for DeBrusk, I'd be all for it.

 

[Fenway]

The Bruins charter has landed at Detroit Metro and they will get home tonight.

63 Putting away that goal was huge. Bruins should have handle'd Detroit; but the late goal and the OT win are a sign of resilience.

I'm wondering whether Bjork could use some time in Providence. What do you and others think about that?

David Pastrnak might have the worst tape job in the NHL - Sportsnet.ca

But his league-leading points streak continues.

Infuriating game for the most part. Despite Pasta and Acciari's goals, Marchy, Krug, and Rask would easily be my three stars. Marchy with an unreal pass, then a ridiculous game winner in OT. Such a competitor! Krug potentially saved a couple goals with massive defensive plays, and made some great passes. Tuukka was on point yet again and kept the Bs in it. Needed those two points with the Caps on tap next. Love that this team doesn't give up and keeps grinding until the end.

I find almost every game against the Red Wings infuriating. Can't remember the last time I was looking forward to a Bruins-Red Wings game.

Very happy with the 2 points but they will need to be much better against the Caps tomorrow.

Bruins were very sluggish for most of the game, but finally woke up just in time.

Count me as someone who wants Chara back but in the #3-4 position rather than 1A.

 

[KnightofBoston]

If they can win tomorrow it will be yugggge


Caps have their number to boot, I'd be blown away if they left with two points

 

[KnightofBoston]

They'll need someone to step in and play strong on the left side, or two solid guys like lauzon and Zboril if they can pull a Carlo - McAvoy

 

[bruinsfan1970]

Was a good win and I am hoping they can get another "W" tomorrow and they just gotta start scoring more on Holtby.

 

[Caper Bruins fan]

The 2nd line isn’t strong enough now with him on it . I don’t know about sending him down to Providence but he could use a game or two upstairs watching . If Spooner is ready to go tomorrow, I would slide him in with Krejci and Debrusk .

 

[DarrenBanks56]

cehlarik back soon?
i think bjokie needs time in providence

 

[Dellstrom]

If it works for him like it did for DeBrusk, I'd be all for it.

Yup. His injury came at a bad time and he hasn't recovered yet.

Let him take a rest for a game. He's overthinking things, I saw 2-3 times tonight where he either forced a pass when he had an open shot or hesitated going into the zone. Pre-injury he was a wizard with the puck. I think he's just lacking confidence right now, and DeBrusk has been on a roll since he got a game off. Would like to see that.

I wouldn't send him right to Providence, he has the most offensive talent and is the most ready out of all of our offensive rookies. If he needs a few weeks there, that's fine, but it's too early to do that now IMO.

 

[JOKER 192]

Didn't like Postma's game tonight. Not the guy to match upm with Krug or Gryz like we saw late in the game. Got hemmed in a lot.

 

[pineapplestastegood]

If Pastrnak doesn't improve dramatically at any other aspect of hockey other than offense, the Bruins will never win anything with him playing top minutes. Yes he scored the tying goal, blah blah blah. I have never seen someone so offensively talented, who is as clueless as he is when it comes to thinking about the rest of the game. He doesn't have to be Bergeron, but just don't be SUCH a liability.

 

[Caper Bruins fan]

I never thought I would say this but K Miller was missed tonight big time .

 

[Bruinaura]

We're only one point behind the defending cup champs, with four games in hand. Not bad.

 

[Boston Bruno]

Please beat Washington.

 

[HumBucker]

Great finish! Amazing goal from Marchy. Krug with some great passes.
9 for 11?

 

[JOKER 192]

Looking at the standings the only team in the east that seems out of reach is TB, everyone else is catchable now.

 

[hrdpuk]

Hopefully they carry that last 2 minutes momentum against the caps

Meh. It's similar to the old candy cane job Kessel use to do.

edit: I think he has a different one now that's similar to the candy can job Kessel use to. The one in the video is from last year.

 

[huoh]

Woke up way too early and couldn't catch sleep anymore, figured I'd hop in and watch the last minutes of the game even though they were one down with a frustrating points loss to Detroit on the works. Welp...
That pass was amazing

Little extreme don’t you think. He is not solid defensively but he isn’t exactly poor either. If you are looking at the short handed goal, how many 21 year old forwards in the NHL would have played that any different, or veterans for that matter. For me I will gladly take his defensive lapses as long as he continues the offence, he is loaded in that department.
