GDT: 10/10: FINALLY! Boston Bruins vs. Colorado Avalanche - 7pm ET - NESN(HD), 98.5 FM

[TheBigBadB]

Not physical?? Hmm, they are hardly bruisers but they are physical, IMO, made the Leafs look soft the other night. Hard on the body on every play

Just means speed is more prevalent than a physical style of play. I didnt mean to say they were a soft team. Its good for Bart who is more than capable of handling the rough stuff while providing a little better footspeed to combat the Avs speed.

Can't wait! Leaving home this morning and will be at the game tonight! Go Bruins!!!

Have a safe trip !

Nice GDT.

A win please

HERE WE GO BRUINS...HERE WE GO

 

[Ladyfan]

I'm thinking two

Oh what the heck...A hatty for Loui

 

[BigBadBruin8]

Avs GDT said that Ryan Wilson might be back tonight. IIRC he was the one who hunched his shoulders at Looch in one of the last games between these teams. Be interesting to see if Looch remembers, because Kyle Beach can attest that he does.

 

[Paddington]

The Avs are putting together quite a nice little roster over and the B's have been able to shut down Stamkos, St. Louis, Datsyuk, and Zetterberg. I'm hoping for a good one tonight. Well, as always, I'm hoping the Bruins smoke the competition but a good game isn't a bad consolation.

 

[TMac21]

Would like to see Iggy or Loui pot one tonight.

4-2 B's

 

[Alicat]

well there goes the win... posting red soxs anywhere close to the Bruins game day thread... This game is cursed now... so disappointing...

and I was looking forward to this game too. Thanks... thanks a lot.

I really hope you're being sarcastic.

 

[bb_fan]

heading in for the game tonight! can't wait!

 

[Burnaby_Joe*]

Good luck tonight I have a feeling the Lucic Krejci Iggy line will give the Avs fits all night

I know it was awhile ago, but thanks for stomping the Nucks in 2011. I despise that team and most of their fans

 

[Ogrim]

I'm gonna have to sleep through this one and not get it spoiled during my workday. This has worked fine for quite a while but I have a feeling the new swedish factor will complicate things.
Because Eriksson will score.
Edit: And Landeskog will be injured. Or stink.

 

[ORLY]

Avs fan here, but after taking the cup from Vancouver (second most hated team) and absolutely destroying the morale of leafs fans (most hated team)..Boston has become one of my favourites. Like a lot of your players too. I won't mind a loss tonight just want a good game.

The key for the Bruins tonight is to get Jiggy moving from side to side with quick, short passes. He seems a little slow. If we get 3 penalties, you guys will get atleast 1 PPG. Really wish Varly was in tonight. Good luck.

 

[Sheppy]

The east may have the tougher guys, but i think the west has two of the scariest guys in the NHL (Bordeleau and McGrattan) - Hopefully Bordy doesn't knock Thornton silly.

I would love nothing more than to see Loui open the scoring early, and have Iggy follow it up. It's almost been a week since the last game the B's played, gotta get their feet under them quick because the Av's will likely be less rusty coming into this one.

Bruins win 4-2, Eriksson, Iginla x2 and Paille with goals for the Bruins, Duchene and Stastny for the Av's

I remember that well. Of course, Wilson did it when there several players and linesmen in between them..coward.

I'm sure it's the type of thing Lucic has seen/heard a hundred times by now, so it's probably not a big deal to him anymore.

 

[KnightofBoston]

I really hope you're being sarcastic.

Probably.

But i do think this phenomena of hockey fans hating on baseball/other sports is pretty amusing. I dont really care to watch baseball but i really appreciate/respect this year's sox team

 

[Bridges31]

The NHL schedule makers can kiss the furriest part of my ass

We had to wait until the third day of the season to get our first game . Then, after game two, we're waiting almost a week for game three. I'm so ready for tonight's game, it's not even funny

I don't understand why the bruins always seem to play fewer games than everyone else. It always seems like that every year and they always play catch up at the end of the season.

 

[Fire Sweeney]

Per @NHLBruins, a limited number of tickets have been released for tonight's game vs #Colorado.

Hoping for a fun, injury-free, game tonight!

 

[VanIsle]

Great GDT Ali, heres to a good one, and if anyone is going to score for the Av's let it be Parenteau, as I have him in my pool.

5-1 Bruins.

 

[qc]

That top 9 of the Avs is pretty solid.

Sure is! Their 4th line can bang, too. We need to put a lot of pressure on their D/G. I see it going to OT.

 

[Bruinswillwin77]

Caron with a Hat-Trick.

 

[bruinsfan46]

Bruins should control the puck, they are the better possession team but Colorado has the speed and quick hit offense to make what opportunities they get count. Have to watch odd men rushes.

Having a guy like Krug in the lineup helps us against speedy teams I would think.

This is not the team you want to be facing after a week off and early enough into the season to not have rhythm down yet.

I think the Avs win tonight. Or make it REAL interesting otherwise.

5-1 Bruins.

I want Giggy to get shelled for say 8 goals all scored/assisted by Iginla, Marchand and Krug. Then when Giggy gets pulled Varlamov comes in and makes about 50 saves. B's win of course but I needz mah pointZ!!!
