BRUINS GDT 9/24 PRESEASON GAME 1 - 5:45 PM - NY Rangers - NESN+, NHLN, NO RADIO

[PlayMakers]

Brown must of hurt his foot, I didn't hear his name called that period.

I think he did. Frederic was out there with that line for the Beecher goal and had a sweet breakout pass against the grain to Zboril for the 2nd assist on the goal.

 

[Number8]

You’re nuts. That gold is spectacular, as are the Vegas jerseys.

You and I are going to have to agree to disagree. I despise the sparkly polyester gold look. Not Original Six worthy.

Guess it comes down to whether you are a Corvette of an Aston Martin kind of person.

 

[PlayMakers]

Poi-tras I heard about five different versions of his name. This is probably the best phonetic one yes?

Pwa-twah I think.

I like Potsy.

 

[Guelph Bruin]

Garden announcer sounded like “Pat-‘twas”

In Guelph (where he plays) we call him "Poit as in Point without the n" then "trAs" which in anglicizing the french version of his name ...but to be fair we are in Ontario and he is from Ontario

 

[Orr Fourever]

In Canada they do. It was delayed and is on.

I can't get it out west. Shaw/Roger's wants me subscribe. And I already ordered center ice 3 weeks ago. Regular season only they told me.

 

[Alicat]

57% at the dot and solid play along the boards for Geekie. He's very reminiscent of Chris Kelly.

 

[Number8]

So far been impressed with Poitras, Beecher (his work on the dot and playing 200 foot has been good), Richard has a nose for net, but will need to work on his finish. JDB and Freddie look like relaxed and seasoned vets of course. Zboril has looked really good, but that out of the blue turnover will nail him to #7+ if he doesn’t clean it up.

Haven’t really noticed anyone else too too much one way or the other. Mitchell with two trips to the sin bin isn’t going to help him.

Of course Bussi has looked great. Very solid.

Those are some last century references. I hated gold in the 70’s/80’s. It reminded me of disco and cheesey dining room chandeliers. But that was 50 years ago. Nowadays there is this very sharp looking matte gold finish that I see a lot in construction. It’s very classy and understated looking. That’s what this gold reminds me of.

 

[Guelph Bruin]

Their line, Harrison-Megna-Lysell hasn’t really clicked. Lysell’s popped a few times for his back check or beating an icing, but he hasn’t had the puck a lot. Still, he’s created 2 scoring chances (shot from the high slot in a 2on2 off the rush and the cut back behind the net and feed to Megna (who fell down in front trying to catch the pass).

Yup I hope Lysell get's a better centre next game to showcase his skills, Richard had two good plays as well but was still invisible 98% like Lysell and Harrison so far. Linemates matter, they're just trying to see if you can elevate a line in these early games...I doubt Poitras would look nearly as good without JD and JVR as his linemates tonight ...kind of the the cold hard truth of it but he does looks good!

 

[BlackFrancis]

Y

I think Regular looks good

I was kind of shocked his name isn't pronounced like a Boston regular, but Regoola.

I’m a last century guy, what can I say? ALthough I will say that Mr.Number 8 would kill it in that kind of gold lame in a sleeveless dress.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

We stop play for skate blades now? Rask is throwing milk crates.

 

[Bruinaura]

Pwa-twah I think.

I like Potsy.

 

[Alicat]

It is going to take awhile to get used to JVR in the Spoked B

 

[AngryMilkcrates]

We stop play for skate blades now? Rask is throwing milk crates.

Can confirm this

 

[Alicat]

JVR has an assist tonight on DeBrusk's goal.

 

[BlackFrancis]

First time tonight Bussi hasn't gone post to post like he was on auto mode.

 

[Mione134]

BUST IT DOWN BUSSI!

 

[Alicat]

Preaseason or not, this sloppy play in their own zone is unacceptable from the Bruins

 

[RI.B FAN]

Bussi!!

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Another nice save Bussi.

 

[Alicat]

That is a late and shit call ref

 

[AngryMilkcrates]

Bussi has been better than expected.
First star if the game so far.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

That is a late and shit call ref

Scoreboard.

 

[GatorMike]

I know it's only the first preseason game, and you shouldn't make snap judgments, but to be honest, I've more than seen enough...

...the two extra sleeve stripes are a crime against humanity.
