Yep.yeah but there's zero excuse for having Backes or Nordstrom in there over Cehlarik and Kuhlman
With Coyle on the line they should be able to at least take a regular shift something the Frederic line couldn’t do . I am excited about Johansson on line 2 . From what I hear he is a good passer and Krejci needs someone he can tic tac toe with .Would love to see Johansson do well with Krejci and DeBrusk. Get that GOAT line back together when Pasta gets back.
But yeah. This sucks for Coyle to be anchored down by two players with a combined 10 goals in 100 games played.
This. They did a good job last game. Keep C in with them. Sometimes.......yeah but there's zero excuse for having Backes or Nordstrom in there over Cehlarik and Kuhlman
Sounds like tonight's forward lines:
Marchand - Bergeron - Heinen
DeBrusk - Krejci - Johansson
Nordstrom - Coyle - Backes
Kuraly - Acciari - Wagner
I’m hoping Heinen sticks and gels with Bergeron and Marchand. That would allow Pastrnak and Johansson to slide to lines 2 and 3. BalanceWould love to see Johansson do well with Krejci and DeBrusk. Get that GOAT line back together when Pasta gets back.

That third line just literally sucked the life and excitement out of me.
Coyle paired with 2 5th liners. Unreal
Nordstrom I can see.This. They did a good job last game. Keep C in with them. Sometimes.......
Backes was good last game and has size.Sharks are a big team. I like Khulman better then Nordstrom though cause he is smarter on offence and better hands.That said Bruins will be killing penalties vs this team and Nordy will help there
Well the team is stuck with him for the next 2 years. I’d hope he can find some chemistry on the 3rd line. Otherwise healthy scratch. I’m a big fan of Backes, but yes he looks worn.Was he? It took him 20 minutes to shoot the puck on an open net that resulted in a save. He muffed a few other chances as well. They guy is cooked and should be the extra forward regardless of what they are paying him.
Why waste trading for Coyle and pairing him with two worst players on the roster. Nordstrom is awful and should have been waived by now

If you would’ve told me 3 years ago the Bruins would have Coyle and Backes on their 3rd line I’d be ecstatic
Sort of happy we didn't get rid of Studnicka yesterday. Holy moly what a rush here!

possibly 6th liners. I would have sent Frederic down but kept Kuhlman upThat third line just literally sucked the life and excitement out of me.

please, I do this a half dozen times a game on NHL19
Kids a studBest forward prospect in the bruins system and it’s not even close.

Nordstrom I can see.
But there’s zero chance Backes is going to sit out nightly down the stretch and in the playoffs. 6 million riding the line is a tough sell to your owner.
