Post-Game Talk: Bruins lose 6-5 to the Habs in a shootout

[bruins_19]

How many 3rd period leads blown this year?

I miss the defensive lockdown team of the past two.

part of our strategy was letting them pepper Thomas and him making saves. We dont get saves anymore

 

[8spokesontheB]

I hate to say it but I knew they were gonna lose that shootout.

No matter. I don't fear the weirdos in playoff play.

 

[CDJ]

Well at least Pandolfo played well I thought. In what is hopefully his last game

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

Rask needed to make a big save and he didn't tonight, Bruins blow another third period, Bruins blow ANOTHER huge effort by Bergeron.

Rask craps his pants in the third period. No faith in this choker in the playoffs

 

[bolt thrower]

Shootout attempts were awful by Boston. They've been a lot better in shootouts this year too.

This game never should have gone to the SO in the first place. Another chocking effort in the 3rd and no timely save by Rask is the what brought us there

 

[Latrappe]

You've been after the guy for awhile now. Getting stale.

Made lots of big saves in this one, B's D let him down pretty good on most of those goals.

You're wrong: Rask should have predict that the puck would deflect on his player face and then on Chara's stick... You know, that's a "normal" save

 

[Mountain]

Seeing all of our shooters going for the same move is so frustrating.



MAYBE AFTER THE LAST 4 GUYS WENT FOR A SNAPSHOT FROM 7 FEET OUT, HE WON'T EXPECT ANOTHER ONE!!!


Bergy is excused, since he got unlucky and lost it.

 

[Neely08]

Look at the goals... Oh wait, it's doesn't matter...

Yeah look at them. Ryder's first goes through him. T-H-R-O-U-G-H him.

I'll assumed he was screened on PK's point shot.

Tying goal? Was he having Mite flashbacks?

DOBBY TIME!!! WHEEEW!!! <--- what a lot of people sounded like when we actually had Vezina caliber goalie.

Not asking him to stop everything, but can we have a big save once in a while?

 

[EverettMike]

I guess he should have that one when the puck deflected on Chara

It is amazing these third periods are never his fault.

He is living under a bad moon man.

Look, I think there are legitimate questions about whether or not he raises his game in big moments. I don't know if we should be worried, but I am not sure we shouldn't be either.

 

[KCBRUIN]

Bright side, Seguin taking his game to another level tonight, and Marchand gets one to get him back on track.

 

[bobbyz04]

What a bunch of bums, how can you let that little weasle team continue to humiliate you. Step up for god sake. your on home ice. They are laughing at you right now.

 

[Daniel Plainview]

Wonder if there are any Habs fans that can be honest enough to admit they were gifted that one?

 

[doakacola*]

Rask needed to make a big save and he didn't tonight, Bruins blow another third period, Bruins blow ANOTHER huge effort by Bergeron.

Those are very concerning trends. Right now Rask is not a SC Champion caliber goalie.

 

[Bi Coastal Bawse*]

Putrid SO everyone seemed to be shooting it right into Budaj IDK why Seguin didn't use his deke move Marchand needs to learn some sort of deke........

Thornton should have been on the SO

at Habs saying WE dive

 

[Lordstanley]

Another lucky win by the Montreal Dive Club ......xxxx off

 

[Widdlez]

I don't know how many times it need to be said on this website, but Tuukka Rask is NOT blowing 3rd period leads, the defense in front of him is. Only the 1st goal he should/could of stopped and it was Ryder with a clear shot in front. The rest we're defensive lapses and bounces. Some posters here could make there complete lack of understanding of the goal tending position anymore obvious.

 

[Over the volcano]

I guess he should have that one when the puck deflected on Chara

Any of the other four would have done the trick.

 

[JRull86]

Wonder if there are any Habs fans that can be honest enough to admit they were gifted that one?

Never.

 

[Bruins1993]

Everything has to do with Pandolfo. Why is he even on our roster.

I Fu****g agree he single handed lost us the game! The guys a joke and jullien needs to give his head a shake and get this dud out of here ffs

 

[Bergeron37]

Tuukka has to play better in big games.

Here we go... #Bruins RT @EricFrancis Iginla announcement any minute.

 

[Fire Sweeney]

4th line out with 2 minutes left
Pandolfo killing penalties with 30 seconds left when Julien had a timeout.

 

[Colt.45Orr]

Impressive -3 for Ference tonight.

Lordie he sucks this year.

 

[maswe12]

This team isn't nearly good enough to win in the playoffs. The coaching sucks, the philosophy sucks, the talent isn't good enough. Winning teams don't regularly blow third period leads

The team just feels stale. Same core has been together for too long and they dont play with much edge. I wouldn't be opposed to trading 1-2 guys on the roster now just for the sake of change.

 

[cat400]

We were a Chara second effort tip from winning in regulation.

Can't fault Rask on any of the goals.

Don't mind the SO as it's a crap shoot.
