What’s strange is I thought the bruins were the better team that period.

They were.

 

[Sigh]

ROFL "Bruins undisciplined play".

 

[Sheppy]

Again, broken record I know, but the Bruins absolutely need some snarl on the back end. A few 5’9’’ 175 pounders and a few 180 pounders aren’t going to cut it this time of the year. Even worse when you lose Chara.

 

[Scruffy]

Watching tafolli last night get 3 points..wish the bruins made that move

But they got big nick Ritchie though

 

[Emerz]

Remember Krugs first series against the Rangers? Where did his shot go, like it’s still decent but it used to be deadly

 

[caz16]

I hope the Bruins are as pissed off as I am.

I miss the 2011 team. Forever will. These recent teams been good but bland.

When the offense is clicking, this team is not bland. In fact, its pretty exciting, even more so than the 2011 team that hit and fought but also played a lot of the Clode trap system, which if you cant recall, is far from exciting to watch.

Problem is, out offense hasn't really clicked well since the bubble started. Taking out empty nets, they haven't scored more than 3 in a game. That production is not going to win you a series when you've got your back up goalie facing the #1 offense in the league.

 

[MoffatMan]

Ritchie does not have the conviction to go with his size. His body-checks have no authority.

Edmundson says otherwise........

 

[JOKER 192]

2 undeserved PP to 0.

1 ref pick pick to 0.

2-0.

I hate this period so much.

What's to like?

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

Can someone pull the plug on Eddie O?

The whole NBCSN hockey cast needs to be blown up and rebuilt. With expectations to keeping Tappen, Forslund, and Carter.

 

[KnightofBoston]

Well

the bruins did come back against the canes in one of those games down 2-0.

the bolts aren’t the canes, but, the bruins aren’t playing like the bruins right now either

 

[Gonzothe7thDman]

Bruins had a slight edge in play that period

but the refs cost us 2 goals

keep grinding

This.

If the Bruins aren't going to win many playoff games if they can't put up at least 3 goals.

 

[BTO]

"Lucky" deflections are what happens when you get pucks to the net. Something Boston has a problem with.

But f*** it! Rip 'em a new one Bruce! Let's f***ing GO!!!!

 

[kthx]

Why not just try Vladar at this point, universe is against us anyways.

 

[DiggityDog]

I honesty can’t believe how much of a shitty mood I’m in. I actually thought the Bruins pushed the play in that period.

But what’s that on the Horizon? Oh it’s Nick Ritchie taking a dumbass penalty on the guy who didn’t even check him there, and oh my is that Scott Stevens out there with stripes pushing Lauzon.

 

[NeelyOrr]

Sad that the biggest player on the BRUINS has the meanness of Mr Rogers.

This is also true of the 2nd biggest player on the BRUINS.

 

[Coach Parker]

Remember Krugs first series against the Rangers? Where did his shot go, like it’s still decent but it used to be deadly

Exactly! His shot is absolute trash all year. He can't hit the net to save his life right now or is ALWAYS intentionally shooting wide.

BRUINS:

The Tampa D can put as many own goal deflections in as you can. Put it on net already.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

"Bruins undisciplined play" the lead talking point going into intermission? NBC is a joke

NBC is pushing that agenda after mentioning Cooper bitching to get calls. He got them. Gross ineptitude all around.

 

[Zillah]

Apparently we need more Backeseses not more Spooners.

Reilly Smith sure looks damn good ... sigh

It’s the same story. This team has won a lot of games the last couple of years and haven’t brung a cup.

 

[Mick Riddleton]

No real shots on net of any degree of quality, Vas is going have another easy game.

Without secondary scoring, this is going be a short series not matter if Tretiak was in net.
