3-2 B`s in OT, Debrusk with the winner just for a little salt in the wounds

 

[TD Charlie]

I have feeling they are gonna run DeBrusk tonight.

Roles reversed, i would too.

I have to assume with Kadri out, the Bruins will put crosshairs on Marner. I’m not saying kill the guy, and I’m not saying go full Kadri on him, but every shift you let ‘em know you’re there. Every hit finishes just a little higher or harder.

 

[Gee Wally]

f*** 'em up!

Moore - Grz pairing per Fluto

Can't wait to see Moore back in. He's been so good this year.

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

The level of utter delusion from the Leafs board is just insane:

Crazy loves company, I guess.

Are these morons actually serious? It's hilarious that they're whining about physical and clean hockey. The only dirty play in this game was Kadri crosschecking DeBrusk in the face.... That is brushed aside as "the officials fault" though. Some of these people don't deserve hockey. Embarrassing levels of lunacy.

The only thing that's getting me through today is this game!

Set the tone early again boys. Don't give them an inch.

LETS GO B's!

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

What did Clifton do? The hit didn't appear to be overly violent.

 

[False Start]

What did Clifton do? The hit didn't appear to be overly violent.

Probably some bad upper body.

Went immediately down the tunnel and never came back. Ribs? Shoulders? Something significant enough to hold him out of practice.

 

[Boston Bandit]

What did Clifton do? The hit didn't appear to be overly violent.

I know, it sucks big time he is out. He was getting better & better, and really building confidence each game. Hopefully he is back soon!

 

[Bruinfanatic]

What did Clifton do? The hit didn't appear to be overly violent.

Kinda checked into boards at the bench.didn’t seem hard ,maybe just the way he hit the edge of the boards.Just my guess anyway.

 

[TD Charlie]

Krug in? As scary as he can be in his own end, he’s still an NHL defenseman and we seem to be losing them rapidly

Come out fast; and forecheck, forecheck, forecheck.

Take the body, and kill off whatever ticky-tack penalties they call. The refs will loosen up as the game goes along, and if the Bruins can weather the storm, they should be fine.

What about Backes?

 

[Bmessy]

The spring air seems to work wonders on head injuries

Bummer that Moore is still out. But it looks like he must be close.

Kampfer can handle 10-15 minutes for one game

Sometimes it's game time decisions.
It can still happen.
