I assume the Gionta/Heinen switch is to spread out the scoring a bit to create more depth, since Heinen has played well and Gionta's play has fallen off recently. At least I hope that's the reason.
Yeah maybe ,Gionta is a good complimentary player ,but he definitely can’t carry a line.

Familiarity with Donato plus he’s willing to take the abuse in front of the net and provide extra D so Krejci and Donato can attempt to create an odd man rush.

He’s not going to carry a line but his style of game compliments Donato and Krejci nicely.

Cassidy still talking about wanting to limit Bergeron for health reasons

Patrice Bergeron, Torey Krug expected back tonight for Bruins

“He'll reel guys in, his linemates if they start to get loose. He's good at that. He's another coach on the ice. And he's a respected voice in the room, so when he speaks, people listen,” said Cassidy. “Nash did a good job up there in terms of what we were asking him to do, so we were fortunate to have to Riley to do that. It allowed Bergy maybe even more time to get back into this and not worry about it. It's great to have him back, but we've got to be mindful of how many minutes he plays. He's going to want to get out there in every situation but we have to make sure we're protecting his health going forward.”
If there's a spot he'll try to keep his minutes down, Cassidy said it would happen on the penalty kill.
“But again, time and score, we need a faceoff? We'll have to make those decisions as we go,” said Cassidy.

Very smart. Glad to hear the organization has its priorities straight.

GDT prettied up!

Now off to pack up to head to my mom's for a few days.

Surgery is tomorrow morning

I'm hoping to be off IR on Thursday but until then, your GDT's will be brought to you by Fenway.

Good luck! I hope everything goes well!

Is this a must win game if the Bruins are serious about overtaking Tampa ? Tampa plays Arizona tomorrow.
Maybe not a must win but probably close.

Tampa doesn’t have as easy a schedule as the Leafs but I imagine they want home ice and will want to win. They may opt to risk resting players (and probably should rest their goalie).

Cassidy already said Bruins are playing to win right now.

I don`t ever get the impression he`s one of those coaches who`s content

A win tonight would put us in a very good point situation and with players coming back we could take first
TO isn't slowing down
