Injury Report: Bruins Injury Thread II

[weaponomega]

We need speed and goals. Donato brings both. No idea what Butch is thinking there.

For some reason, they won't put Backes at center.

 

[Bruinfanatic]

There was no reason to not play Donato. Its a win win either he scores and helps us outgun Toronto or he doesn't score and then sits for Riley Nash game 2. Wingels has a specific role he is perfect for and that role is to put the 4th line on notice that all of them better play well since he can replace any of the 3 if they have a couple bad games. Hes a good guy to start in the press box and insert for anyone other than the stars who fail to make an impact.

Yeah don’t get Wingels over Donato,he would get some good scoring chances against the Leafs.

Donato out?

Backes doesn't have the foot speed required to be a C in today's NHL. I accept him for what he is a solid albeit way over paid 3rd line winger who brings some grit and character.

 

[BRUINS since 1995]

How is RileymNash going. Third line is one of the best with him and Acciari is more suited on the wing

 

[bruinmann77]

Rick Nash really brought it tonight

I thought he looked quite effective the few times he's played centre for us.

Wingles not on the ice today

I Riley on?

 

[BruinDust]

I thought he looked quite effective the few times he's played centre for us.

I've long been a supporter of Backes at C, but I'll admit he did not look good there when he was playing center after coming back from his badly cut leg.

Prior to that I thought he looked capable there.

[nazartp]

Not surprised. I wonder where in protocol he is.

If the puck hit the ear, that can mess up your balance so it might just be that. Who knows.

Plus your head is bound to be sore after a puck to the head - concussion or not.

They got wrong Nash on the photo.

Riley Nash unlikely to play, Wingels questionable for Bruins in Game 2

 

[BMC]

Wingles not on the ice today

I was just going to ask if there was any word on him. I guess I shouldn't be surprised considering the cheap shot he took from that motherf***er Kadri

I like what Wingles brings good banger be nice if he can go game 2

 

[bruinmann77]

Yes i like the Play of Wingles great pick up by DS. Let hope he ok for game 2

 

[HumBucker]

Smart to let the evaluation of Wingels take longer than the league took to suspend Kadri. No use announcing the results – especially if he's good to play – let the league assume he's out. I'll bet if they had announced Wingels was good to go for game #2, Kadri would have got a lighter suspension. Smart move, Sweeney.

Not much ice time for Grizz ,Debrusk or even Charlie for that matter in the third period.Mcguire wasn’t commenting that he had been hurt and was struggling on the bench,hopefully nothing serious.Not sure what was going on with Charlie or Debrusk,other than Charlie kept falling.

 

[MAINE-IAC]

Hopefully with a big lead Cassidy was just being cautious with debrusk & mcCovey. Grizz I'm a little more worried about .
