There are many good reasons for drinking,
One has just entered my head.
If a man doesn't drink when he's living,
How in the hell can he drink when he's dead?

[Pie O My]

this GDT will do quite nicely.

Go 's!!

And of course to those in attendance - Our PP sux. deal with it. Do NOT boo our PP.....until they give up a shorty, then all bets are off.

Wasnt there a shorty last game? Matthias?

Yes, Pie admitted that if a shorty was scored by the other team, that was an acceptable excuse to boo our PP. Only that, though.

Oh, I guess I thought he meant something else my bad

I thought he was saying don't boo them because at least they haven't given up one yet.

 

[Alicat]

Ok I made the GDT pretty. Mods, please fix to put the GDT info into Regina's OP. Thanks!

 

[NastyNate17]

AGGHHH so bummed I have to miss this one for work

 

[bruinsfan1970]

Another Matinee game which means I will miss it because I will be at work.I HATE MATINEE GAMES..Grrrrrrrrrrr

 

[Artemis]

it's getting there

Up to 21st in the league at 16.0%, but amazingly enough, third in the league on the road at 25.7%. In their heads much?

 

[Bi Coastal Bawse*]

Yay.............Pandolfo

I hate matinee games because the hockey is usually so bad, why do the Bruins have to play so many?

 

[Trap Jesus]

Back-to-back matinees against two teams that have our number, while having to hear non-stop ball-washing by the commentators of two certain players. Could be in for a rough weekend.

 

[RedBruin]

ugh gonna miss it due to work

Lets hope I'm not gonna find a way to spoil it before firing off Gamecenter when I come home.

 

[smithformeragent]

Whatever they do, don't go up 2-0/3-0 this weekend. If you happen to make the mistake of scoring first, let them get the next one!

 

[Braunbaer]

Back-to-back matinees against two teams that have our number

Pittsburgh doesn't.
They were rested, this won't be the case this time.

Ali like a HOF closer, closes the deal!

I am the Pedro Martinez of the GDT

 

[roflstomper]

I say we give the first PP attempt a standing ovation.

 

[Jani8]

Pandolfo

What is the risk in seeing how Spooner handles centering the 3rd line with Peverley and Caron on the wings? I doubt he'd single-handedly cost the Bruins 2 points even if they don't click at all. We're in perfect position to give the youngsters a try-out. Safely heading in to playoffs...

 

[13Hockey]

Was tuukka confirmed?....I was expecting Khodobin tomorrow

 

[GabeTravels]

See I LIKE Matinee games. With the time difference/me not working until 2:30 I can catch the first two periods live, and the 3rd on the radio while commuting in.

 

[smithformeragent]

Clode

Will they be sporting their "Men In Black" look for this matinee?

 

[PrisonMike]

will miss this one because of work, but they usually are sluggish for days games, so Im not that mad.
