Boston Bruins 2020 PLAYOFFS - THE BEAR invades the Toronto bubble

[Alicat]

Judging by the photos it looks like maintenance days for Bergy, Marchy and Kuraly

Goat indeed

I noticed the Caps players were mostly sporting goatees rather than full-beards. Not that it helped them much the poor buggers. I feel for them. Especially Holtby.

I personally prefer a bit of scruff on Bergy. The goatee looks good on him.

anything is better than the Movember mustaches. Those are creepy

Feels like Bergy has missed the last several practices?

That's a lot of "maintenance" but at least he's still able to play games, so that's good.

I think the islanders would be an easier out, but i also want to watch a bruins game with my friend this weekend if possible

Tough

I think regardless of what happens with Philly/Montreal, the Bruins will be the team kicking things off in the East. They're the only team that can't play the winner of Philly vs. Montreal, so whichever team advances in that series will get another day of rest relative to Boston, whether they play the Lightning or Islanders.

Probably Sunday or Monday (I doubt with a ~10 PM end time they'd already set Boston vs. Tampa for tomorrow, before the 8 PM Colorado vs. Dallas game).

Islanders are pretty freaking good and could definitely beat us. I do feel they would be a significantly better match up for us than the Lightning though.

oh for sure, I personally believe most nhl teams are good let alone the ones that make the post season AND win a round

just the matchup aspect of it really


But I also think the bruins are very determined this year and also probably feel they owe the lightning for 2018

No one this deep in the playoffs is going to be a pushover. That said, we match up amazingly with NYI and have for the last few years. They're effectively a lesser version of us, playing a very similar style of hockey with less talent. We've not only beaten them pretty much every game the last 3 years, but the games weren't particularly close either. That's a far cry from Tampa, who give us fits at times.

As long as our boys come out on top.

Get ready for people counting out this team. Sports radio is going to be filled with “the Bruins can’t beat Tampa” shit

I like being the underdog

Here comes the clown brigade - Maroon, Paquette, Gourde etc

2 of the 3 games against the Isles this year went to OT. If that's not particularly close, idk what is.
