BRUINS GDT ECQF G4 4/17 - BRUINS (1) @ Maple Leafs (2) - Second Period

[Tmac37]

Let's play a bit in their end this period ok? Man we cannot break out of our end at all.

 

[Krupp]

What happened to Kuraly? I never did hear what injury he suffered

 

[13Hockey]

Bergeron only has played 9:44

Suspicions of him being hurt may be true

 

[BTO]

We need to be ready for their 3rd period surge. Gotta hang on but hit them

Need to press forward. Attack, don't defend. Play in their end.

 

[Kate08]

You thinking of Marv?

No not at all.

I hate Hainseys name. It sounds like a nickname. It could be Jack, Kenny, or Bergeron whispering it in my ear and I’d recoil

 

[OV]

Getting old sucks. Chara can't even knock down Tyler Ennis.

Except that Chara's the first guy we look to to tune someone up when they take
liberties.

 

[Zillah]

FINNISH THEM

 

[rfournier103]

Better, this period.

 

[Wooren]

The bench will be closer again in the 3rd period, so that helps. But seriously need to wake up, getting hemmed in the zone every shift is not the way to go.

 

[Donnie Shulzhoffer]

No not at all.

I hate Hainseys name. It sounds like a nickname. It could be Jack, Kenny, or Bergeron whispering it in my ear and I’d recoil

Ah, gotcha

 

[BTO]

Send Chara to the airport now.
That will do wonders for McAvoy and Carlo. They are carrying the big oaf and it’s killing their game.

Sad but true. He could at least hit someone. Or more.

 

[TheReal13Linseman]

Easy to say from the couch. I bet you'd eat a slap shot no problem, right??

Well, considering I’m 56 yrs old and NOT a professional hockey player, um yeah.

But compared to your average NHLer, he’s fragile.

Ok?

 

[TP]

Damn. Dallas chased Rinne

 

[RoccoF14]

Good effort tonight, overall.

Toronto’s Dmen having too easy of a time in their own zone. Our forecheck needs to be better.

They are pounding our Dmen on the forecheck, I’d like to see us reply in kind.

 

[LSCII]

Chara scares me every time he gets the puck

I can't watch him f*** up every clearing attempt he gets over and over again. It's maddening.

I'm also good with seeing Backes out there. He's 2 steps behind every play and blindly throwing pucks up to spaces he's not even sure are available. Newsflash, David, they're not. You're turning the puck over continually. Go away. Please.

 

[Prince Pasta]

honestly, thats 2 periods in a row we've outscored them but i've been very unhappy with their overall play.

i dont even know what to feel anymore.

You’re going to give up o zone time to that team, more important the kind of shots/chances you give them

 

[rocketdan9]

Getting old sucks. Chara can't even knock down Tyler Ennis.

Vegan diet I believe

Chara is not beefy anymore

 

[DKH]

Why do those leaf fans stand up outside for 6 hours to watch on a big screen.

Don’t they have big screens at home?

History

Many have only read about or seen on black and white film the Leafs win a playoff round

Not this year

[TwineTickler]

Bergeron only has played 9:44

Suspicions of him being hurt may be true

He was in the box for 2 minutes... which plays a part, but a little odd considering it's a must win

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

Well, considering I’m 56 yrs old and NOT a professional hockey player, um yeah.

But compared to your average NHLer, he’s fragile.

Ok?

He took a slapshot and went to the bench. He didn't go down the tunnel. He stayed in the game so how is that fragile? Your comment smelled and your response didn't help.

 

[rocketdan9]

I can't watch him **** up every clearing attempt he gets over and over again. It's maddening.

I'm also good with seeing Backes out there. He's 2 steps behind every play and blindly throwing pucks up to spaces he's not even sure are available. Newsflash, David, they're not. You're turning the puck over continually. Go away. Please.

Backes needs to sit

That 4th line has been hemmed in non stop

 

[CrownofThornton]

Yes, Chara is simply not a #1 anymore at his current age. Gets beat a lot 1 on 1.

 

[PlayMakers]

Man, I thought the ice was heavily tilted against us for about 15 of those 20 minutes. B's need to be better in the third if they're going to hold on. The D in particular, needs to start making plays.

 

[TorontLoL 67]

Keeping him fresh for the 3rd
