The key in the playoffs is consistency. Shift-to-shift, period-to-period, game-to-game.

These teams are close, so the team that can conistently play to their ability is the one that will win. Can't afford to have one line go missing.

I am a bit scared.

A good game with no injuries please.

HERE WE GO BRUINS....HERE WE GO

Bergeron has had a lot of success against Tampa's 7 main faceoff takers to open the series.

Bergeron's career numbers vs. those 7:

Opponent	Faceoffs Won	Faceoffs Taken	Faceoff %
Johnson	74	132	56.1
Point	54	91	59.3
Cirelli	38	57	66.7
Paquette	25	38	65.8
Gourde	20	24	83.3
Goodrow	12	18	66.7
Stephens	4	7	57.1
Overall	227	367	61.9

I hope to see more of Grzelcyk-McAvoy together this series. Chara is still great defensively but has quite clearly lost several steps and I think he could be a good partner with Clifton to provide some defensive presence, while Clifton runs around and does his thing. Grzelcyk-McAvoy have absolutely dominated in their limited ice time together.

Excited for this one to get going. The B's need to take advantage of Stamkos likely still being out.

Go Bruins! Winning game 1 would be a major statement.

Ritchie should grab Goodrow or Pacquette early and beat them.

 

[BAD BOY]

Let’s win this first one.
Let’s Go Bruins !
LFG!!!!!

 

[GlenFeatherstone]

This series is the reason why Nick Ritchie is here. He needs to bring his A game the next 4-7 games. He could be such a difference maker with guys like Maroon and Goodrow. If they can match the physicality, which I believe they have the guys to do that. And Halak is on, this series could be over quick. Those are the 2 keys for this series.

DROP THE f***ING PUCK ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I look forward to Kamikaze Cliffy absolutely terrorizing the Lightning.

You know what this virus hasn't been able to change?

Our awesome GDT's. Still the best!

 

[Bruinaura]

May the Bruins bring the wrath of a cookie-fueled rage against the dirty Lightning from the first drop of the puck....

 

[Outl4w]

Bolts fan coming in peace. Lets hope another good series for our rivalry.

 

[KillerMillerTime]

Aside from Maroon, Goodrow and Killorn the Lightning aren't big upfront. Their top 6 are smaller, fast and hit but McAvoy-Gryz pairing is the route to go.

My sister has one of those dolls. I won't say who she stabs with pins and needles daily because it is political.

The afternoon is dragging so I have started watching Stranger Things (the series)
