Post-Game Talk: Bruins lose 4-3 in Triple OT

[Bojakees*]

IMO..Kelly should have stayed on the third line...And BOURQUE should have been put on the 4th line between PAILLE and THORTY......My reason is BOURQUE can SKATE...SPEED is important in that role. Plus, he would have scored where Daugovans did not.

As for if HORTY does not play....SODERBERG HAS to play. We need Lightening in a bottle and this guy can give it to us...HORTY has NOT BEEN Physical. He has scored but he has not been crashing people. SODER is the closest thing we have to Horty's talent level and that's a shot we need to take.

LOOCH-KRECI-SEGS
MARCHY-BERGIE-JAGS
PEVS-KELLY-SODER
PAILLE-BOURQUE-THORTY.............

Yeah, not sure I buy this. Two of their goals were nothing more than lucky bounces, not a product of coaching. Without the puck glancing off of Ference's skate this game doesn't even go into OT.

They were dead until Saad moved up....then, when behind, he really opened it up with the D and had 4 guys in consistently...

This site is selling "Chicago Stronger" shirts. Makes me sick. Heres the link if you want to see what they look like. http://www.cubbytees.com/ShirtPages/Chicago_Strong_Blackhawks_Stanley_Cup_Shirt.html

That is just wrong.

Poor taste IMO.

 

[Ladyfan]

the tribune ad really didn't bother me. this shirt thing really pisses me off though. I just don't get it. **** the people who made the shirts and whoever buys them

Probably not a good idea for anyone who cheers for the Hawks to wear that shirt in Boston.

 

[Spoon fed]

Over confident

WOW. I was just reading the Hawks message board for this series and those fans are so unbelievably overconfident it's laughable. Do the Hawks have an edge after winning game 1? Sure, they do. However, I'm fairly sure it's 3 more wins to go for the trophy... but, I digress.

I have to say, after watching game 1, I don't know how those fans could come away with "domination", etc... Conversely, what I witnessed is a VERY winnable series for the B's. If that's the Hawks best (or near it), I'd be worried.

Anyway, game 2 should be good. Bring on the Hawks.

 

[RedeyeRocketeer]

would love a nice 5-2 win Saturday. Start to get the panic going over there.

Read an article about how this sort of loss won't sting the B's as much as it would another team. I agree. If nothing else I bet it motivates the **** out of them.

 

[Ladyfan]

Anyone betting some of their vcash on the B's ?

 

[robert terwilliger]

didn't see a problem with the chicago stronger shirt, nor with the written statement that they made which the poster took probably the most inflammatory paragraph of.

 

[774EVER]

Might be a bit of an odd question, but when is the last time anyone saw Bergeron one-time snipe a shot like that?

His first 2 years in the league, his one-timer was lethal. Would be incredible if he could ever regain that.

 

[Roll 4 Lines]

What was the tribune ad?

 

[robert terwilliger]

http://ftw.usatoday.com/2013/06/chicago-tribune-boston-front-pgae/

it's just a bunch of people trying to make the series more than it is.

"it's an original six final!!!!!!" so?

it's a seven game series between probably the two best teams in the league. why do politics have to get involved in every ****ing thing anymore.

have they done the mayor's bet yet? is menino going to bet a case of boston lager and emanuel a deep dish pizza? or maybe if the bruins lose, menino has to go to a speech class and emanuel has to cook and eat a whole pig?

 

[Jean_Jacket41]

If Horton is out, that's one less player that actually scores goals out there.

Puts more pressure on Krejci, Marchand, Bergeron, Lucic and the surprising high scoring D.

Jagr, Seguin, Peverley and Kelly have made us wait long enough. 2 goals out of them in 17 games. Time to stop this bad joke and contribute...

I was thinking the same thing. Here's his 31 goals in 2005-2006, amazing number of them are highlight-quality.



Of course, the Bs were DNQ that season and even worse the next when Bergy was -28. So I'll take the perennial Selke candidate over the young sniper.

But there's no question his shot is underrated.

And don't forget that Vancouver won game 1 and game 2 in the finals. I must have slept through their Stanley Cup parade. But I didn't miss them burning their own city down.

Any updates on the lines for tomorrow's game ,or do we have to wait for the morning skates tomorrow to figure that out?

Lines are never released the day before, especially in the finals. Would give the other coach more time to prepare, especially since the first line right winger is out right now. We won't know lines until puck drop I imagine because of the uncertainty of Horton.

In my semi-professional opinion if he dislocated his shoulder he'll be in the game. Obviously depends on how hard it was to put back in but it's the Finals and shoulder surgery isn't rocket science. He'd be fine next season. If he separated his shoulder on the other hand, it's a different story. Different injury altogether and much harder to stabilize.

 

[KnightofBoston]

wont hit the panic button until we lose a game at home, that said i do hope they can take game 2 and convincingly if possible

I said the same thing as soon as he potted that goal. Haven't seen him do it since pre-Randy Jones. Seems like forever ago.

Well said. I kinda figured that was the case. Thanks for the info. I really appreciate it.

 

[lopey]

Not sure if this was mentioned already but Horty is on the ice with the team!!!

Boston Bruins ‏@NHLBruins 22s
Marchand-Bergeron-Jagr only line that fully stayed intact throughout rushes ^CS

 

[Rubber Biscuit]

Fluto Shinzawa ‏@GlobeFluto 31s
If Horton out, looks like: Lucic-Krejci-Seguin, Marchand-Bergeron-Jagr, Paille-Soderberg-Peverley, Daugavins-Kelly-Thornton.

Now we have a reason to hate the hawks and their fans.

Interesting.

I've already said I'm done second-guessing Claude, cuz he always wins that battle

But if Horton is a no-go, I am curious as heck to see the Soda-Cracker!

 

[ReggieMoto]

If you follow Fluto on Twitter, you'll read that Julien is rolling multiple lines mixed with all kinds of players in various alternate roles. My guess is he's (Julien's) keeping people guessing and not tipping his hand.
