Lots to agree with here. Problem is with Bergeron
and Krejci age they need Lauzon and Carlo to play
like at least a reasonable facsimile of Pelech.
Pelech appears to be a bit more fluid skater.
They lose to NYI it will mean a clear downward
trajectory for this ageing core because NYI aren't beating anyone past this round. Might even influence
Hall staying in Boston.

2019 Finals
2020 QF lose to champion

Its the playoffs.

Don't be certain of anything.

What was the likelihood of Montreal beating anyone?

If Krecji doesn’t sign are a reasonable price why sign Hall
They have no centers in the system to take Krecji or Bergeron’s spot in the near future

You have a very good point,not sure if there are any younger centerman available as free agents this summer or not,if they can’t get Krejci back or not.

Can't wait for the game to start, I've been simmering, pissed off and aggravated since last game. Let's get the "W" tomorrow and move forward.

Would they actually sit DeBrusk and play Kuhlman?

Wonder if they are pissed at him being fined.

Jake showed some life last game but I think Kuhlman was still a little better which is a huge indictment.

The Bruins badly need to add another right-shot middle six winger. I'm miffed that Studnicka showed nothing this year. Not even a goal in Providence.

Why would they be pissed at him? He was getting manhandled by Mayfield the entire first period. Second and third, Jake fought back. He was hitting. He was battling in front of the net. He was where they wanted him to be. If anything they should be praising him for stepping up physically when he's not that player.

He's not Smitty. But he filled in as best he could.
