Once Chara went down this team imploded

Chara down 5 straight goals against.

No Chara, Miller, Mcavoy 3 of top 4 out, need health. Ouch.

Game went south after that power play the Avs scored on, they turned up the speed after that. First line had a bad game, all of them other then on the power play. Halak looked rather Rask like tonight

There’s just a lack of size on the Bruins. They’re getting murked in the board battles and Colorado is literally skating through them.

I think they’re gassed. They played a great first period and then got absolutely bounced around ever since. It happens.

They’re just losing battle after battle. They’re not really creating traffic, nor are they clearing the crease.

Playing without Chara is tough and not once did I say the reason they’re losing is because of their size, I just said that they’re losing board battles and you come swooping in like you normally do.

Jesus Christ, man.

So, you didn’t say the B’s were losing because of their size.

Except...that’s exactly what you said in the first post I replied to.

I feel like I need to come “swooping in” and say something when people keep repeating the same stuff over and over like it’s fact, even though it’s not.

No not Rask....PLEASE not Rask

Hard to win games with 3 NHL defensemen. We need some bodies back on D or it's going to look like this on more nights. What a drag.

I’d argue they have much brighter future than Boston.

They might struggle to get to the cap floor next year which means they will be interested in trading for Backes (dollars owed vs cap hit) according to posters on here.

not with that sieve.

First line unrecognizable tonight. We still don't have a third and fourth lines (and I'd love a #2 RW to replace Nordstrom). That being said: life is terrible with no defensive dman available.

I had to rewind to see the Bergeron hook.

Now THAT was a brutal call. There was nothing there.

yes..i did the same thing...phantom and avs guy sold it...refs did not decide this ame but those were pretty thin calls in the 3rd...

bruins defense now...ouch

Chara, McAvoy, Carlo, Miller, Krug, Moore/Gryz was their top 6/7 going into the season.

Assuming Chara is out for a bit, all have missed extended time already outside of Moore.

Again, I said they were losing the board battles. Bjork, Marchand and to a lesser degree Pastrnak we’re getting pounded around. Colorado wasn’t letting them breathe and kept them pinned, Krug and Gryz, too.

Maybe if you actually read some of my other posts instead of picking a spot to add your 2 cents to pump Heinens tires like usual you’d see.
