Yes you are doing great blaming the goalie for a loss in a game where we were shut out. Well done.

I'll answer that for him. Last night loss should totally be put on Claude and here's why.
He (especially last night) set his players up to fail.
He ended up putting Pasta with Marchand and Bergy which for me is 2 much for the 18 year old as playing on that line he will face the best players night in and night out.
Campbell playing the minutes he does. I mean even Campbell must know he's being over used. Can't tell the coach to stop putting you on the ice but I'm telling you.
If Campbell played his 5-7 minutes a night with his PK he would be much more effective.
soda on the 4th line. soda is a guy that needs to play with other players and this has been evident all year. Campbell smith and Soda 3 guys who have struggled all year is not a good combo by any stretch of the.
Spooner- he needs to show more confidence in this kid and coach. Was really hoping he was going to re unit the Pasta Lucic Spoon line and try and catch Trotz
Sleeping and get them on against Washington 5-6 Dman. Or even try and double shift him on the wing if need be. He's been out best offensive weapon for a while now
I know it's tough on the road but a good coach finds a way.
This was one of Claude worst coached games in a long time and IMO he was over thinking it to much.
Use what got you there.
If this is the sentiment in that locker room, one can see where the problem lies. Someone needs to step up and challenge these guys.
Nah, he's supposed to match Holtby and give up zero goals until the shootout where the Bruins... well never mind.

No, he wasn't. However when you play one of the worst players in the league for 15 minutes a night over guys that can make a difference for you. There is a seriously questionable call. Rolling 4 lines has not got it done for us this season, the lack of adjustment in ice time and to the system has directly led to us losing several games this season that we could have won.
Campbell shouldn't be anywhere near an NHL rink right now. The 4th line should be penalty kill specialists that play 6-8 minutes a night. That remaining time should be given to whatever of the top 3 lines is showing they want to compete. In the Ottawa Pittsburgh game, Turris played 25 minutes. His line was hot and the coach gave them the ice time to succeed,
When your team is down by 3 goals in a must win game. You switch it up. Stop playing the third man up high and start trying to get dirty goals in front. The coaching this season has been bad to say the least. The Bruins are the only team I've ever seen stick to the system regardless of the score or time of the game. The only changes they make are when they have a lead, they dump change and line up 4 in the neutral zone.
Clode needs to be fired.
No doubt. Clode sucked and did some indefensible things.
But there comes a time where players have to accept responsibility for their actions (or inaction, as the case is here), suck it up and show some effort and finish. I don't care how bad a coach is, have some freaking pride and do your job.

The GM and coach have been sending the wrong messages all year, the players have gotten the message..
and this is where I hope management comes in and cleans up the roster. there is a handful I can think of right now. Kelly, Campbell and Paille being 3 I can think of right now.
It's really simple. It doesn't matter if the score was 1-0 where our goalie made 99 saves or 10-0 in a game with 5 soft goals. If your team does not score, goalie is not the problem. Period. There really can be no debate on this since in either case you lost the game. Shutout=no goalie blame.
Score a few and lose with soft goals? Blame away.

If Rask gave up 5 goals in the first then you could make a case that he took them out of the game and it wouldn't have mattered if they Bruins scored 0 or 4 goals.
In this case, the two early goals were painful, but there was plenty of time left and he kept them in it the rest of the way. This game was totally on the rest of the team for not being able to close the gap even a little bit.
Coaching certainly didn't help though. Team looked 100% more dangerous in the 3rd after the line shuffling. If that change was made after the 2nd goal it might have been a totally different game.

We get it Claude's absolved of any wrongdoing , unless it impacts Tuukka's directly.

Did Tuukka have his best game. Nope.
But even if his SV% was 99% we would have lost 1-0.
If you get 0 goals you lose every time doesn't matter if you let in 1 or 15.

Bruins give up 2 goals in first 7 minutes. Neither a soft goal.
Bruins never score in the game.
Rask's fault? Don't think so.
Coach's fault? Did he stop them from scoring? (3 times against Caps, with different lines and personnel)
Campbell's fault? Wasn't on the ice for any of the goals.
Looks to me like this is the whipping boy thread. Its the fault of the guy I don't like no matter what actually happened.
