Based on my experience last night. The p bruin forwards look hungry.

I was Very Impressed with Hughes. Comstant speed motor physical and plays pk.

Zach Hughes Cehlairk should be the bruin 3rd line

Zach playing aggressively

Other notables. Blidth Frederic kulman Bjork

We should see someone called up soon. I would send cave jFK and Donato down and call up Hughes and Frederic or Bldth

No it shouldn't. This line would get eaten alive at the NHL level. It's been reiterated by BruinsNetwork, who watches Providence religiously, that Hughes isn't NHL ready at all. Senyshyn is closer but still not there, and Cehlarik isn't even close to being good enough to carry two players on a line in the NHL... Hell, he can't even carry himself there.

I tend to agree Marchand and Pasta are not working together well with Bergy out, a split may be the best to get some offence going.

Who is the most skilled C in Providence? JFK? Frederic? Fitzgerald? Bring him up and put him between Marchand and Pasta. Or Studnicka on an emergency basis. Cave not cutting it in that spot.

Bring back Björk. Sit Acciari.

Have Cassidy checked up in geriatric service for dementia. Why else would he be putting Acciari and Wagner on the 3rd line?

Enough with the Madness.

Backes at center is over, slow as mud, he cannot keep up with anyone. Been there, done that, keep him on the 4th line till the end of the year. Krech should be the top line center with his experience and vision. Bring up Senyshyn, Cehlarik and Frederic, send down Donato, Acciari and JFK

Bruins need goals. Time to callup their most skilled and fast winger from Providence: Senyshyn. Call up Frederic when you're at it. Cave and Acciari to Providence.

bench Krug. What a terrible defender
bench Acciari, Wagner, Kuraly

The teams issue is not grinding, its inability to score a goal

Why are people suggesting Cameron Hughes who is not anywhere near being ready for the NHL? He's having a good season in the "A". It's awesome, but from people who actually watch him play, they have stated he's not ready and doesn't have the pace to play in this league. People are way too over reactive. They see a game with a prospect and he scores or does ANYTHING and he's in the NHL lineup the next day. Hughes has 37 career AHL games. Let him play in the AHL. He will come up and get destroyed. The solutions are not players (who aren't ready) in Providence.

The Cave experiment has to end.
Acciari has to sit.
Nordstrom has to get back where he belongs (4th line+PK).
Callup Senyshyn and Frederic.

Don’t take this the wrong way, but you go see one PRO game, all of a sudden are an expert on those guys, and you insert not one...not two...not three...but four AHL prospects into the lineup, two in the Top 6, and two on the 3rd line. All the while, demoting guys that have more NHL experience.

It would not surprise me if none of the four guys you mention get the call until after Frederic.

I like this lineup, but not sure Cassidy would roll with Donato and two rooks on the 3rd line? Defensive nightmare.
Nope, not his style so throw in an AHL grinder and that’ll be more accurate. I actually like Bjork more than Donato but I’m not sure if they’ll switch Bjork and Donato so soon.
