Pre-Game Talk: ECSF GAME 4 Sat 12:24 PM THE BEAR has its back against the wall - NBC, SN, SN4K, TVAS, 98.5 WBZ-FM

[GloveSave1]

I dont know if it's 2020.
Or hockey in August.
Or my mom going into hospice today.

But I just aint feeling it.
Maybe if they wake up and make it a series it will remove my numbness.....I dont know...

My prayers are with her.

My cable provider is showing the Islanders game at Noon on Saturday. I’m just gonna assume it’s Bruins...haha...

For me FiOS usually seems to update around 10 or 10:30 in the morning, and usually changes have to be in by the afternoon the day before if it's going to be on the updated schedule. So if they'd decided on the dates of the games on Thursday at 4 in the afternoon, I'd get an update at 10 on Friday.

But since the game times were only settled this morning - I think it'll update tomorrow morning with all the new games. But yeah the noon game is Bruins. I'm a bit surprised they're doing the puck drop so late - you'd think they'd want a little time at the end of the third period to warn people to figure out how to get on the NBCSN app or to get to NHLN to watch the rest of the OT game. (No NBCSN for OT - it's Indy Car I think. And no NBC for OT because of PGA.)

That's the problem with you optimists.

My eyes are fine...

Sending you love tonight and going forward. This has been a terrible year. Sports are my only saving grace. Hopefully the boys make it a series and it helps you. Stay strong.

 

[bruinmann77]

I don't have high hopes for this team tomorrow.

 

[Gordoff]

I saw the same lack of passion in the 'Canes eyes as I did in the Bruins eyes game 3. That look of "I just want this over with." I hope that it's not true, that I'm wrong but my gut tells me they're done.

 

[charliesangel]

We need some 2011 magic!

Better find Tim Thomas then.

 

[KillerMillerTime]

By this measuring stick, 15 teams fold like a cheap suite every year in the playoffs.

How about Games 6 and 7 against Toronto?

Or Games 4 and 5 against Columbus?

Or Game 6 against St. Louis?

Rask gave up 3 goals total in those 2 Leaf games.

Rask was really good vs Columbus

Rask was really good G6 STL

I don't remotely have same confidence in Halak
against TB.

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

Well winner of this game wins the series.

Wally, My thoughts are with you as you are in such a difficult time. sports mean nothing now.

 

[Ladyfan]

Well, never thought I would be able to say this, but as it’s 2020 Bruins are playing playoff hockey on my birthday tomorrow. So for first and hopefully last time: I want a Bruins win for my birthday
Here we go Here we go

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my little sister.

 

[Ladyfan]

Better find Tim Thomas then.

and Looch, Horton. McQuaid, Seids, Ference, Johnny B, Pevs, Kelly, Thornton, Soupy and Danny P.

It isn't just the net minder

 

[Oates2Neely]

I can see Marchand going off for a big game today

 

[Ladyfan]

I can see Marchand going off for a big game today

Me too.

I think the B's will have a better game today. Of course it couldn't be much worse.

Positive thoughts to our B's this morning.

 

[lopey]

I’m missing a fishing trip for this game. I better see the effort today. Go bruins

 

[EvilElf63]

It's been 4 days since they played a real hockey game, but I believe they can bring it together for this one. Chara obviously doesn't have the legs anymore, but hopefully he has the leadership to get his squad to at least show up today.
Statement reply?

 

[Ned Bouhalassa]

I’m not sure, but I have a feeling that a number of players may not have their full heart into the game. And for once, given all that’s going on, I can’t really blame them!

 

[Dennis Bonvie]

Rask gave up 3 goals total in those 2 Leaf games.

Rask was really good vs Columbus

Rask was really good G6 STL

I don't remotely have same confidence in Halak
against TB.

And the Bruins scored 22 goals in those 5 games.

 

[Dennis Bonvie]

Well winner of this game wins the series.

I don't know about that......

 

[goldnblack]

Any lineup rumors?

 

[Mick Riddleton]

Better find Tim Thomas then.

What a goalie he was, best clutch Bruin keeper I have seen in the last 15 years.

Someone paddle out to his cabin and tell him to get to Toronto.
