GDT: 10/31: Bruins vs Ducks 7pm ET - Happy Halloween

[Neely08]

Ugly...

But it's 2 pts.

Nice to see Soderberg factor in.

Iggy... laser, that's why we got him. That and he's nasty.

 

[BklyNBruiN]

We didn't deserve to win this game, but that's what good teams do is win these types of games.

 

[SerenityRick]

I don't think the Bruins "stole" anything tonight. yeah the first period was as mehhh as you can get but to grind out a win on the latter half of a back to back? Good win.

Keep Spooner up. Sorry Caron. You're all done.

 

[Afam*]

Iggy. Claude lineup for the shootout was a good lineup.

 

[BklyNBruiN]

Rask is amazing! We always knew he was special. Guy is on a mission this season. He's worth the $$$ so far.

 

[Dellstrom]

Bad start, but worked hard......Dougie Hamilton is gonna be a top 10 d-man in this league

Awesome year so far. Was just dominant tonight.

Very few complaints about his defensive game. Gonna a two way force.

 

[Bergeron37]

Tied with the Habs now with a game in hand

 

[BergyWho37]

That was a nice goal by 12. That was really good stops by Rask on Perry and Getzlaf.

Soderberg...what was that shot?

Terrible shoots right at him.

 

[maceINface]

Chara 29:45 TOI... crazy

 

[mislysBB]

They must wonder how this team wins games.

Funny how we can win against the toughest teams in the west, but lose to crappier teams in the east.

 

[sooshii]

That was scary.

 

[spylogic3]

Soderberg...what was that shot?

The camera caught the Bruins heading to the dressing room. Soderberg was checking the blade of his stick twice.

 

[TCL40]

Krug and Hamilton are really good. Makes me feel better about the eventual retirement of Chara.

I think both could still work in their D-zone play but they look very good and are dangerous in the O-zone.

Dougie also looks like he is going to be dangerous 4 on 4-I don't care what the 5 on 5 pairings are-Julien should put Chara and Dougie together 4 on 4.

 

[bolt thrower]

Terrible first period, way better from the 2nd on.
Hamilton and Spoons looked great!

 

[TCL40]

Chara 29:45 TOI... crazy

No Boychuk for the majority of the game and an OT.

Krug and Dougie seemed to get a lot of minutes as well.

 

[qc]

The ice was awful by the time it reached shootouts.

 

[Jean_Jacket41]

Back in 2nd place in the division.

Nice game by Spooner. Man is he fast... Better not get out of the lineup. Ever. That whole 3rd line was good besides that horrible Yeti turnover on the 1st goal. Redeemed himself on the goal.

Most quiet game by the KIL line this season.

The Bergy line is still struggling to create offense. Besides that bubbled open net chance on that great March feed in the first minutes of the game, not much...

Krug was very good again. Just extend this guy.

Boychuk hurt... Enters Bart...

Some good shifts by Merlot.

Caron is done here unless many injuries.

Bring on the Isles.

couldn't agree more

 

[TCL40]

The ice was awful by the time it reached shootouts.

I think the ice pretty much was gone by the third.

 

[Fossy21]

Still don't get this "stealing points" or whatever. Anaheim didn't do much throughout the game, despite being heavily favoured by the refs. We were better for much of the 2nd, basically all of the third and all of the OT. We've had way more points stolen from us this season than we've stolen (the Sharks game).

 

[TCL40]

Oh and Krejci had a good game-his little pass to Chara tied the game up-holler totally expected the shot to come from Krejci.

This was really the first game where I definitely would put some blame on Bergeron. He seemed tentative all night and just isn't as hard on his skates as usual.

 

[Krupp]

I hate shootouts. With that said, I'm glad the guys won this one. I really hope they keep Spooner around for good; he was all over the place tonight.

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

And one other thing. The Bruins did not steal this game. They played a horrendous first (possibly their worst period of the year) and then came back and were going strong by the end of the second into the third, overtime, and shootout.

Calling this a "stolen game" is just dwelling on the initial letdown of tjhe first and possibly the last few games where play hasn't exactly been 60 minutes. If "stealing" is defined as winning because they were lucky not to be down 5-0 after the first, then OK I guess. But aside from that, they played like **** and then came back and earned the win.
