GDT: Boston vs Pittsburgh, March 14th 1 PM: NESN, NHLN-US, TVA - RADIO: 98.5

[Sevren]

At the time that I am writing this, Ottawa leads NYI 2-0 in the 3rd and Washington trails Dallas 4-1, also in the 3rd. This means that tomorrow morning Ottawa could be 5 points back from the Bruins with an equal number of games played, and the Bruins could be 2 points away from Washington with 2 games in hand.

Unless Washington comes back, a win tomorrow afternoon means the Bruins are in 7th place, 3 points away from Detroit and 6 from Pittsburgh. And it would be a great way to start the weekend

Update :

Ottawa wins 2-1 over the NYI
Washington loses 4-2 against Dallas

Standings :

DET 66 85

Let's show ovi and the boys how you play hockey in the 2nd half, have to say I'm surprised to see Caps struggling.

LET'S DO THIS!!

Must win game and huge 2 points again!

 

[Ladyfan]

Really need a B's win.

I hope our boys play a full 60.

 

[Jean_Jacket41]

A win and we are in the first WC spot. And if Det lose, 3pts back from them.

Big game.

 

[PIMsCup]

Big games seem to be important to clear the malaise away from this team. In a way they have a mild form of LA Kings syndrome.

 

[Mione134]

Power of the Clodefish continues...

 

[13Hockey]

3-0 Bs win !

 

[Pia8988]

Tuukka will probably take the next 2 games with Svedberg getting Buffalo, then Tuukka getting Ottawa and Florida. Real important stretch to Boston to solidify their playoff spot.

 

[Bad Puck Bounce]

I could definitely see the Bruins catching Detroit. Boy, wouldn't that be sweet.

 

[smithformeragent]

We're traveling to Long Island to play in a DBZ Card Game tournament (sort of like Pokemon) so I'll be recording this one.

Clode.

 

[KrejciMVP]

A win and we are in the first WC spot. And if Det lose, 3pts back from them.

Big game.

I knew there was a reason we playerd 82 games. This team was buried by so many people this year.

 

[RedeyeRocketeer]

clodefish!!!

This is going to be tough with the Pens strength down the middle. Real test for the Spooner line.

I came here to post this. I am more than a little worried about the matchups. I could see one of Crosby or Malkin really having their way with the rookies in this one. I hope I am wrong but the D is weaker than last year or any year in the past 5-6 years and there is no Krejci to shut down whichever guy Bergeron doesn't draw. I think the LSP line is going to have to score at the same rate as Crosby's line and they can pull off a win. I just don't see them holding whoever they draw scoreless.

 

[RedeyeRocketeer]

Also I wonder if you play Rask today, or tomorrow, or both.

That Caps game looms real large.


Also gross, I forgot the Pens got Winnik at the deadline. Man their forward group is deeeeeep. Claude not having last change today is going to really hurt.

Perron-Sid-Hornqvist
Kunitz-Malkin-Comeau
Winnik-Sutter-Bennett
Spailing-Lapierre-Downie


That's nasty. We need Fleury at his worst. I guess their D gets Erhoff back too.

 

[talkinaway]

I'm looking for Paille to score early - maybe with about 16:46 left in the first period. If he adds an assist to that goal, he'll be 3-1=4 for the month of March. Go Clodefish! Make #20's day!

Side note: For some reason, I'm missing Thornton and Esposito today - wonder if Thorty ever goes over to Esposito's.

oof. pi jokes.

This game has the makings of being really ugly real fast if the Bruins play the way they did the other night.

 

[Flannelman]

1, 2, 3 **** 'em up.
loathe this POS team.

I get the whole Pi-eh thing, but Thornton & Espo? I'm missin' it.

 

[talkinaway]

Not Thornton and Espo...Thornton over Espo.

 

[Bruinswillwin77]

**** em up win the cup

 

[Mione134]

Wishful thinking that we'll mess them up when we haven't messed anyone up this year

But who knows. Maybe Crosby will turn the switch in Charas brain and we instantly become goons again. I miss us being punky.

 

[Dellstrom]

Very important game... Tomorrow as well. Would be amazing to win both but if we're going to lose, get it to OT. Try to get at least 3/4.

Not playing Rask today would probably mean conceding the game. I might be willing to do that if it means they'll beat the Caps. I'm curious to see how the B's currently match up against them, but Bergy & Krecji could always take turns in neutralizing Sid. Without last change, I foresee a lot of Sid vs Spooner happening, & turning out poorly.

Mull it over. Make sure you eat your dessert today. Preferrably at ~1:59.
