Player Discussion Anders Bjork II

[Dicky113]

You are being too harsh imo

The aggression heightened his play

He just needs to be a little more careful

Perhaps, it looked to me like he was 3 steps behind his line mates and getting caught. I guess those guys are pretty hard to catch up to, but he could easily have cost the team a win today. You can’t be taking 3 stupid penalties filling in on the first line! I honestly can’t ever remember seeing something like that.

 

[Colt.45Orr]

In only 7 minutes of play!

If he'd played 23 minutes or something heavy like that then gets more excusable... or if he had crushing hits that went over the line.


Or.... wait for it... if he produced on offense!

Dont get me wrong... if two of those penalties cost the team, he would be...

Also I have Stud semi locked on that third line

But if Pasta is no good for Monday, just try Bjork again

 

[Dennis Bonvie]

Leave the 3rd line alone imo

Chemistry in the playoffs is underrated

Kuraly Coyle Stud have a good thing going

Kuraly and Studnika both played under 10 minutes today.

 

[Kalus]

I can’t remember a worse game by a professional hockey player than Björk today. It’s one thing to not be able to contribute offensively on that line, but man oh man you can’t take three lazy penalties trying to catch up to them. I do not want to see him again this year. Wagner was much better.

He did some good things when he wasn't in the box. He's their best option to fill in for Pasta. Don't break up the second line. Keep Coyle as 3C. When Pasta is back, Bjork goes to the 3rd line and Kuraly 4C. Lindholm was pretty good, but he'll have to wait for the next injury.

Yes but due to pp/pk... not bc line played poorly

Bruins had close to 8 min on the PP alone

 

[BRUINS since 1995]

Give the kid a break... he needs to learn. They looked (Bruins) good today.

Love it. Bjork is a “kid” who needs to learn. He is the same age right now as Ritchie who sucks and is what he is. Same draft year and everything.

[Over the volcano]

Kids had a lot of rope ...wouldn’t mind seeing Senyshyn.

Sorry, when I read it again I realize it is a strange post. Disregard

Shhhhh.... common sense posts that don't fit the narrative just don't fit the narrative. Heard the same thing about Ritchie vs. "The kid" Seneyshyn.

They teach you at 4yrs old not to trip or slash opponents, or you'll get a penalty. That lesson should not need to be learned again in the playoffs.

No problem. Go Bruins

 

[TheReal13Linseman]

Only a hair better than Ritchie, but on very thin ice. One more game with no points and/or stupid penalties and he falls through.

Not saying they played poorly. They just did not play much.

Nordstrom (14:16), Lindholm (15:24) and Wagner (16:34) played a lot more.

 

[Baddkarma]

Good player, hard worker, and there is some finish there. Bruins will patient for sure. All that said Bruins have alot of young players in the line-up. A couple of them need to chip in occasionally.

 

[PB37]

I think Cassidy needs to pull the rope and sit Bjork. 3 penalties in 7 minutes is not good hockey.

Senyshyn should be the next guy who gets a look. Put Stud with Bergeron and Senyshyn with Coyle and Kuraly. Lots of speed and size on that line.

I wouldnt mind seeing Senyshyn out there

 

[ON3M4N]

Lol Bjork had rope? This is the same kid that Bruce benched numerous times and usually for something like having to long of a shift. The kid has the 2nd lowest TOI and people think he's got rope

 

[DaStinger]

I thought he looked great the first couple shifts... then it went downhill

 

[NDiesel]

Guy looks great most games, but really can't bury a damn puck

 

[Ladyfan]

I like Anders. He has to be careful not to go to the box but that first call was a nothing call so I don't blame him for that one.

 

[chizzler]

The team can keep losing confidence in the young players. Some take longer to produce. As a top team, the time is now but they need to infuse younger players and not bench them every time things don’t go their way. I thought Bjork was fine in the game. He’s doing what is asked. He was setting up his line mates. He’s got speed and is firey. The points will come. He’s had some injuries. I think the roster will be the same unless Past comes back. Then it’s a tossup between Bjork and Studs IMO.

 

[weaponomega]

Like the kid. Hard worker, good skater, decent hands, but lacks the hockey sense to play with bergeron and Marchand.

 

[Dabruins]

I like Anders. He has to be careful not to go to the box but that first call was a nothing call so I don't blame him for that one.

I think after that one he really gave it to the ref.... they might take a bit from a player like Marchy or Bergy but they're not gonna sit there and get verbally assaulted by a player of Bjork's current status. Feel like he put a target on his back the rest of the game and it threw him off too. I got faith in this player, I like his game when he is playing well. He does a lot of good things when he is on the ice, he just needs to start finishing some of these good things or else he will have a hard time earning ice time.
