Post-Game Talk: Game 76 - The Bruins take over the #1 seed in the East - BRUINS 4 Tampa Bay 2 FINAL

[s3antana5757]

Ducked a punch, threw a left back, and the two both fell to the ice. Not much happened, but it says a lot when a guy like Pasta doesn't mind sticking up for a teammate, especially when that teammate is Bergeron.

Rask and Pasta standing up for their teammates. This is what 2017-18 has been all about.

If it's ok for the new guy to ask, where does she sit? Just curious after all the reading on here.

What a win against a (the?) cup favorite after the trade deadline. While still missing their top 2 D and 2 2nd liners.

Love the hatred building.

This team is Special

This team is a wagon


CUPS COMING BACK TO BOSTON LETS GO!!

Another tremendous victory missing several key players, this team continues to impress.

*runs around the forum high fiving everyone and yelling WE ARE IN FIRST PLACE*

So much to love about this game, this team, think I'll just sit and glow a bit.

 

[Jean_Jacket41]

So much praise to go around in this game. Total team victory.

Fun to see TB that much buthurt. Hopefully, they are still standing after their round against Tor so the Bruins can eliminate them, again.

 

[BigGoalBrad]

Another hard fought gritty win.

Love the passion displayed by Rask and Pastrnak, but cringed at the thought of them may be getting injured.

Need the Big Z back to help reduce the cheap shots that the Bruins have been encountering during his absence.

Agree but all the gritty wins would have been for nothing if we lost tonight. We might blow the 1 seed if we don't bring it against Florida but we have seriously shaken Tampa psychologically. Not sure they get past Toronto to see us 2nd round.

Carlo has really upped his game lately, playing with a lot more confidence and even a little bit of snarl.

 

[Krupp]

I'm seriously asking, because I have no clue, has Tampa had injury problems this year?

I mean, I know it hit them hard in teh past, so I know they know how the B's feel in regards to that, but it must be absolutley frustrating as HELL for them to have just lost the lead in the Atlantic to a team that STILL isn't 100%. I mean, at this point in the season, no team is, but Boston's had key starters out frequently this season.

And STILL, the Atlantic's theirs. Look out, NHL. If they don't get the cup this season, they're definitely in it to win it for the next few years at the very least

A little spunk never hurt anyone.

The 5ton line is hilariously brutal, Wingels Schaller and Acciari hit everything

 

[Otherworld]

After this one, this need needs to be ready for the rematch with Tampa.

This team just keeps on keeping on. Just a solid effort.

This game felt playoff like, and I am sure the players felt that too. From what I saw tonight I believe this team is ready to make some noise in the post season.

 

[Budddy]

TSN Giving some love to the Bruins now

 

[Bruin1970]

How stupid does Vesey look right now?

He dissed Boston and Nashville to play for the lowly rangers. Boston and Nashville are the two best teams in the nhl right now- hahaha

Probably too late to ask, but what happened to Kuraly?

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Felt intense. TB embarrassed.

Good win!

When this roster is healthy......

 

[Paddington]

This team continues to amaze me. First, the contributions from the kids, then the run that the team went on in Nov/Dec, then getting to within breathing distance of Tampa, and now overtaking them for 1st. I honestly didn't think they could catch Tampa, even when they got to within 5 or 6 points. But, this team keeps fighting. They have such character. They never feel like they're out of a game and we've seen proof of that with several comebacks this season. I don't know how the season will end but I do know I have enjoyed the ride. The vets look reinvigorated by the kids and the kids are learning a ton from some great veteran leaders. The team is skilled, scrappy, and so much fun to watch.
