Post-Game Talk: Game 71 - Blue Jackets 5 BRUINS 4 F/OT

[BruinsFanSince94]

One thing though...This baseless speculation that the Bruins don't say anything, because it's not public, needs to stop. No one here has any idea if they've said anything to the league and we never will. I doubt someone from the team comes out and says anything publicly. It rarely happens.

I'd love for them to give it to the league in an interview, Cassidy, Sweeney, Neely, etc. but it just won't happen. The closest we'll get is Jack and Brick doing it, and they've hinted a few times about how they've been warned about it.

The free arm around grabbing a guy has been called 100% of time, no matter how slight since 2006. Flat out unprofessional by the refs to not call that.

 

[Emerz]

I just wish it wasn't so predictable, I really do.

I'm never mad about a loss that's just one team outplaying the other, but the second that Dave Jackson decided to ignore a penalty shot in OT, I knew it was over, the game was over at that point and a great game was spoiled. It was simply ruined.

 

[N o o d l e s]

Jesus Columbus fans are mighty ****ing touchy after getting a gift from the stripes tonight.

They have fans?

 

[Lockheed]

They have fans?

Seven, I counted.

Missing Bergy, DeBrusk, Chara, and McAvoy is a massive hit to the D. Backes out doesn't help either. The team is getting goals even without those players. When everyone is back healthy it is scary to think how good the D will be, as well as how lethal the offense will be. This team is going to be insane good once everyone is off the injury list. Throw Donato in the mix as well. Holy ****!

Season near over.Having my doubts about McAvoy making it back 1st round be honest

No reports on him?

 

[GloryDaze4877]

So Postma, huh?

#NextManUp

Probably.

I would rather see Zboril.

 

[GloveSave1]

Does anyone think that refs have the stones or even desire to just say I'm not making calls in Montreal or Toronto, like that guy did in OT?

I'd bet the house, they don't.

Boston has no home ice advantage. Refs just don't care.

Based on what?

 

[22Brad Park]

No reports on him?

Nothing .I have not heard a thing

[BruinsFanSince94]

Why is Postma the next man up? Did I miss another injury? Nevermind, I see above tweet.

 

[charliesangel]

He doesn't leave with injuries that are not that serious....not his style.

 

[trenton1]

This could have been another 8-4 affair. Their goalie played well and got a little lucky at times, too. The Bruins are a seriously impressive team even when the other team steals a point. Krejci's last shot hitting the bar was tough.

 

[PB37]

Probably.

I would rather see Zboril.

I think he's deserved it with his progression as the year has gone on.

 

[Glove Malfunction]

Man, I said to @Kovi what a fun game this was late in the second period. Boy did those refs steal that mojo.

 

[BruinsBtn]

Can't let a 3-1 lead evaporate and it wasn't a strong OT either

It is disgraceful that penalties were not called...Marchands was an easy call to make. It's embarrassing for the NHL to have that.

Dave Jackson seems to have it in for the Bruins...ever since 2014 series with Habs...no excuse for the other ref not to call those penalties...

Dave Jackson should have never reffed another game after that Game 7 versus the Habs.

 

[GloryDaze4877]

Jackets board salty...all 12 of them.

 

[22Brad Park]

Based on what?

Based on the man is not on skates and season near over.You think he just going to fire skates on and go after that injury ?I said I am having my doubts about 1st round or at very least starting series.Could be wrong but we will see .Have you heard any reports on him?

 

[charliesangel]

Jackets board salty...all 12 of them.

About what?

I agree.

Jack and Brick also don’t help this as you mentioned. Feel like they’ve been super fiesty these past few weeks. And it translates throughout the broadcast

 

[Bruin1970]

Anyone left who doesn’t see that the league will shaft the Bruins, really is willfully ignorant at this point. There is not a single team whose best scorer being raped on a breakaway that wouldn’t get a call. Not one. Only the Bruins scorers can be raped like that. Happens to Krejci every game as well. If that was Crosby, mcdavid, Matthews ...it would be playing on a loop on sportsnet.

McQuaid didn’t play in the third.

This one blows, but the B’s better learn to live with it and overcompensate for the bad/non-calls - it’s what they’re going to gave to deal with in the playoffs.

He leaves and comes back 5 min later.
