Pre-Game Talk: ECQF Game 4 4/19 7:30 PM - Bruins know they need a better start in Game 4

[Hamilton Brian]

That's a good start. If only we could get Carlo back.

Ugh, this whole situation just SUCKS.

Kind of a reason to hope the Caps get sent packing, as much as I don't care for the Leafs advancing.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Big improvement over cross

Yes this gives us a player who can play 20 if needed. Not ideal still. A puck mover and a good shot.

 

[CombatOnContact]

Miller back tonight to help send the series to Ottawa tied at 2.

Hopefully Carlo back on Friday.

Maybe McQuaid back on Sunday.

Krug back for round 2.

Chara-Carlo
Krug-McQuaid
K.Miller-McAvoy

... /dream

 

[Jean_Jacket41]

Just win.

Go Bruins!

 

[Trap Jesus]

**** man, it's tough to be optimistic with this blueline. At least C. Miller is a start.

 

[Neely2005]

Just being sarcastic ,although I don't know Bobby still looks pretty fit,if it weren't for,those darn knees.

He coached our son for a day a few years ago. He can still skate! Apparently he had a more modern knee surgery a few years back.

 

[Greek_physique]

Cross looked lost.....and whenever he had the puck in the defensive zone, he was a disaster. Reminded me of Greg Zanon....glad he's gonna sit if Miller comes back.

 

[remer]

Well Carlo has to have a bigger injury than a concussion. Must be something significant.

 

[Greek_physique]

Well Carlo has to have a bigger injury than a concussion. Must be something significant.

I still think its a concussion...some people react differently to it.

Was he in the press box watching game 3? That would tell me if he has a concussion or not; because he would be sensitive to lights.

 

[VanIsle]

It looks very positive C.Miller will be back in the lineup.

Good to have guys coming back, one day at a time.

 

[BMC]

Dear Bruins

Don't dig a huge ****ing hole for yourselves in the first period and then go for the comeback. It puts too much pressure on your fans' cardiovascular & nervous systems.

Your friend,

Stressed Out

 

[whatsbruin]

I say the B's rally the troops, and beat the Sens, then go on to win the series.
Everyone starts producing starting tonight.

 

[FribbleLine]

I have very little confidence we win tonight

 

[KnightofBoston]

Well Carlo has to have a bigger injury than a concussion. Must be something significant.

Must be a strained neck, NHL has to release concussion status (I'm pretty sure but maybe I'm wrong)

Strained neck would definitely keep you out for a while, especially when you're someone that's never played an NHL playoff game and has to rely on hockey sense and ice awareness, quick turns and observations to stay alert - a busted neck would make that difficult


I'm hoping the bruins can gut out a win tonight though and we can get Carlo back for game 5 with a chance to come home with a 3-2 series lead

It's possible the bruins will get guys back just in the nick of time, but they need to win tonight either way

 

[KnightofBoston]

I still think its a concussion...some people react differently to it.

Was he in the press box watching game 3? That would tell me if he has a concussion or not; because he would be sensitive to lights.

He was indeed, I saw everyone there actually, and Krug no longer has a knee brace

 

[Hali33]

Well Carlo has to have a bigger injury than a concussion. Must be something significant.

A concussion is significant and recovery can be very variable.

 

[Ladyfan]

I think it is a concussion too.

Chiller was in the warm up last game so I bet he is in tonight.

The B's are so banged up .

I hope for a win but considering the injuries (both guys out and guys playing hurt) I don't have lots of hope for this series.

I will cheer the B's to whatever end.

HERE WE GO BRUINS...HERE WE GO

 

[NDiesel]

So is it safe to assume:

Chara-McAvoy
Morrow-K.Miller
Liles-C. Miller

 

[Ladyfan]

I like your positive attitude.

I hope the fans cheer loud tonight and support the B's.

 

[Neely2005]

Well Carlo has to have a bigger injury than a concussion. Must be something significant.

Concussions are one of the most serious and significant injuries a player can get.

 

[VanIsle]

So is it safe to assume:

Chara-McAvoy
Morrow-K.Miller
Liles-C. Miller

That's not so bad, just gets some shots on net and get on the board early.

 

[sooshii]

Bobby Orr on playing the Senators

Apologies in advance; I wasn't sure on how to take that picture and then insert it in my post.

LOVE HIM. (just paste the url into the image tag)

A Bruins win and the flattening of Bobby Ryan. These are reasonable demands

Cosigned.

He coached our son for a day a few years ago. He can still skate! Apparently he had a more modern knee surgery a few years back.

Glad for this.

Seems like all my life I've been worrying over some defenseman's health...

That said, I think they pull it together tonight, officials be damned, and put up a W.

 

[Hamilton Brian]

That's not so bad, just gets some shots on net and get on the board early.

Not too bad of a D corps, at this point. It's better than Monday night's lineup.

 

[Cronuss]

5-0 Bruins

 

[BruinsFanMike82]

Tonight's referees are Kevin Pollock and Brad Meier.

Bruins record with Pollock as ref over the last 3 seasons = 10-1
Senators record with Meier as ref over the last 3 seasons = 1-11
