Pre-Game Talk: Bruins at Sens 10/23/18 7:30

Lol seriously?

What a bunch of cheats if true.... and as if they friggin need to against us.

I mean that’s all that was sent to me, I suppose it could be a fake somehow but I don’t see the point lol

 

[Smash88]

Meh, if the practice is open to them, then I have no issues..

With all the video around from games, I don't think it really matters.

Some people will make this into a huge thing, but to me its nothing.

If true, and considering they are a New England team and the accusation I'm skeptical, this doesn't look good at all on the League.

You don't want teams spying on eachother, it isn't a good look.

My point is, it doesn't matter. They will get that info if they want it. Just follow twitter and you can see plenty of clips and comments on what is going on at practice. If you don't want people at your practice close it off to everyone.

There are really no big secrets in hockey in terms of deployments and things like that, it's not like Football at all, so the comparison doesn't work.

If you allow people into your practice who cares if they film it? They are watching it anyway.

The practices meant to be open to the public, not the opposing team. It very well could matter, the Sens might have a specific gameplan with dealing with the injured Bruins, if Boston knows this ahead of time by virtue of watching the other team practice it gives them a considerable edge.

I don't think it makes or breaks a game but it doesn't look good when you have opposing teams going to practices that are meant to be open to the public. At the end of the day, it is poor form for a team to film their opposition's practice, not because it can turn a loss into a win but because practices are open to the public, another team showing up to film is abusing that fact.

Boro Harpur would worry me a lot more than Boro Ceci.

But I think Ceci is decent so I'm in a small minority.

I think if Ceci doesn't have to carry as many minutes he can be effective.
A lot of it is who you are partnered with. I think everyone has difficulty being with Boro.
He really wants to be the hero every game.

Bruins caught filming the sens practice during defensive zone drills this morning lol

The tradition runs strong in New England.

Lol ,filming practices now ...Really Boston

Well I'd consider the opposing team part of the public.

I don't know why they would do it, considering they can find the info fairly easily, but I don't really care if they do or not.

They would decipher it in the first 5 minutes of the game anyway.

Going 12-6 tonight.

 

[topshelf15]

Going 12-6 tonight.

Play one forward and 4 defenders all of whom just take up every square inch of net ...Then lose in shootout ...Brillant we gain a point from a tough team

Well the reason the practices are open is for the general public to attend. Yes the opposing team is, technically, part of the general public but I think we can both agree that that is stretching things, no one said "let's have practices open so the opposition can come watch too!".

A lot can happen in 5 minutes of play

Their D is banged up, this makes sense.

Here's how the forward lines looked at today's skate...
Boedker - Duchene - White
Dzingel - Tierney - Stone
Formenton - Carey - Ryan
Paajarvi - Smith - Pyatt

And here's a look at the projected defence pairings against Boston...
Chabot - DeMelo
Borowiecki - Wideman
Lajoie - Jaros

So bloody happy to see White getting a chance..

What a bonus he will be for us if he can play anything like he was against Montreal.

 

[BonkTastic]

Man, Boston sports teams love to spy on practices, don't they?

Spygate 2.0!

Is there any media coverage of this, or confirmation from any source worth trusting?

 

[Sun God Nika]

How long do you think those 4 d will stay there with chara having all the time in the world to line up a slapshot?

 

[Beville]

Not feeling confident with this one...

Pull it out the bag boys.

 

[solidprospect]

I thought Ceci was playing?

I hope not!

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

I thought Ceci was playing?

TSN Ice Chips said no I believe.

 

[Do Make Say Think]

TSN Ice Chips said no I believe.

That is surprising!

Either it's the whole "this line up has won three in a row" or maybe Ceci was really hurting to start the season?

 

[Tuna99]

This is your classic depth versus top end talent. Ottawa has solid depth right now.

I wanted to see where they were t versus Montreal, now I have more questions about how good they are. Can they be in the division top 3 or is this a wild card team?

Ottawa wins this one 4-2 with an empty net goal.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

If he's healthy, it's very surprising. I would assume he's still not 100%. The TSN Ice Chips was using Brent Wallace Twitter as the source and he didn't really elaborate on why.
