Coyle is easily one o the 3 stars of the series IMO. I think Krug deserves a ton of credit as well, that pairing was our only trustworthy one for the majority of the series. Obviously Carlo is huge on that pairing, but Krug held his own defensively and had some big moments in the series.

Krug has a great series

He’s made for Toronto- both against and I bet for

He’s a UFA and I’m running the Leafs I’m all over him

Reilly and Krug on 2 different pairings would be something

Tuukka was amazing last night

Who will we hate on CBus after the first game?

Josh Anderson, Boone Jenner, Bjorkstrom. I love all three of those players but Anderson will be hitting everything that moves. Jenner will be jamming his shoulders into everyone's faces (not dirty but aggressive) and Bjorkstrom is so goddamn slippery. He doesn't look like hes that good and then he's ripping one from the slot and you're like "how the hell did he get there?"

Bruins capped off a life changing day for me in the best way possible.

After 22 years in the trades and 12 years self employed I received a lead that there was a job opening right up my alley of expertise that would change my quality of life exponentially..... so after a few restless nights I made the decision to move on from self employment if offered the position given its perks.

I was offered the position the day of game 1 of the series and asked to come in to sign the employment contract yesterday prior to game 7.

What a way to end the night.

Note Marchand's comment.

This team truly does seem to play for each other. On the surface there does not appear to be any major egos. This is what makes me love a team.

Fixed it for ya

The one element that Anderson has beside being a beast physically is that he has tremendous speed and he will be a big-time challenge for the Bruins defense to contain. He may be the best all around power forward in the game today with the speed and power he brings along with being able to put the puck in the back of the net.

He is also a top-notch Penalty Killer.

I’d love to run the Leafs

More balance - I do think Toronto has drafted very well last 2 years

Krug would be a killer on that second pairing with a solid veteran partner

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

I've red that Chara commits penalty every shift, their players get stuck behind his big body - should be interference every time.

Talk about irony. Their coaches' system involves constant interference.

This is just disturbing to me.

How is a cat registered on HFboards. How does it type on the keyboard?

Cats are very smart. They even have human slaves

I think you'll see them bring in a top 4 defenseman this off-season.

Kadri more than likely will be gone in the deal, but to get a true top 4 it wouldn't surprise me if they peddle Nylander.

 

[xStanleyCupsFor]

I think he would have brought more back in a trade before that new contract,With his play this year and especially this series,not sure many takers.

Wrong post

 

[Bread and Circuses]

I used to think that was overblown when Babcock coached the Wings, but I didn't see much of the wings or really pay much attention to the style. I noticed it way more during this series.

So there are a couple of articles about a cheap shot from Chara to Tavares on a scrum late in the second.

Bruins' Zdeno Chara lands cheap shot on unsuspecting John Tavares

Does anyone know if these are articles written by biased fans or if this is widely seen as a dirty play or unfairly impacting the outcome of game 7. Seems like just an excuse to me, but not sure if I am alone with diehard B's fans in this belief.

I totally agree with Marchand on this- they are 1A. Played a hell of a series. So proud of them!

Even Tavares said it was a punch to the face and he didn't see who threw it. Heat of the moment play, they were all scrumming about there. I did notice Bergy trying to help Tavares up- class act right there.

Congrats!

Self-employment can be great, but there's something to be said for a steady, regular paycheque, benefits, etc.

 

[Seidenbergy]

Tavares was really pulling a sell job on that one. I've seen videos of 80 lb girls getting punched square in the face with 10x the force of that punch and not go down.

Didn’t read the article- cause who cares?
Yeah at the end of the 2nd Chara sucker punched him and Bergy helped him up. Don’t know that it had any effect on the game.

come on now

I'm just kidding around....sort of

Pasta needs to play better

I think quite a few teams would want Kadri even though he is a psychopath but would there be that many takers for creampuff Nylander and that contract ?

 

[McTrashBoat]

Does anyone else get a ton of joy from watching Kuraly’s goal? I watched the game in a Saskatchewan bar full of leaf fans and when he scored I was like “where the hell is the leap?” then he did it and all was well.

They had the game on at the elevator

I got a room full of boos saying I was cheering for the Bruins, then they told me my dockage just went up
