Post-Game Talk: EDF Game 3 - MARCHAND WINS IT IN OT!!!!!! - BRUINS lead series 2-1

Today is National Donut Day a/k/a David Pastrnak Day:

He was also damaged goods.

If he were still the 22 year old Pederson he gets the money.

Yes he was damaged but even if he were 22 and healthy he still gets the Sinden shuffle when it comes to $$$. Look at all of the others that Sinden screwed over and lost.

Can't score if you don't shoot.

2.6 shots per game for an entire forward line ain't going to get it done.

What I remember about Shawn Thornton is that he was a high-density shooter. From all angles, he'd just throw it on net, once in a while it'd cause a rebound and a junk goal, but he wasn't afraid to shoot at all.

Consistently inconsistent you mean, as game management dictates. They allowed a number of cross checks before calling the Kuraly one and are allowing plenty of hooks/slashes go on both teams, only to call it randomly. One of the calls giving the Bs a PP last night was brutal at best as well.

The Bruins are better off 5v5 vs NYI regardless and Bruce knows this. NYI cannot score without a man advantage or a fortunate bounce. Keep it 5v5.

That was my issue as well. The Kuraly x check was a penalty. Palmieri went down easy, but I expect that to be called every time...not just when a Bruins player commits the foul.

Marchands stick work deserved a penalty, no question.

The Pastrnak slash was weak imo. They let most of that go through 3 games and then randomly call it. Whoever he slashed barely even reacted, it's not like he got chopped down. I was annoyed with the call, but at the same time just turn the other cheek and move on. I hope Pastrnak and Marchand were chewed out over both penalties.

I can accept the Kuraly penalty as a penalty, what had me ripshit all night was that he just got hauled down by Palmieri right before that and the refs let it go. I think Bergeron got tripped in on the same shift too.

My issue isn't whether what Kuraly did was an infraction or not. It's the inconsistency of when they choose to call infractions and when not to, and given the standard they had set not only all night but literally 7 seconds earlier that shift, to give the Islanders a PP with 2:15 left in a tie game in the playoffs was an abomination.

 

[Absurdity]

My biggest problem with Ritchie, apart from screening the goalie, and DeBrusk is that neither provide much of anything if they aren't scoring. The other problem is that they are on the same line, and who is good enough to replace them?

The back and forth between prison rules and preseason is annoying. Then again, don't commit dumb stick fouls and there's nothing to complain about. I go both ways on it.

Same, same, but different with Paille. He was a high volume breakaway shooter. Normally, he'd have better luck using his tongue to try and push the puck in the net, but once in a while..

Hopefully Bruce adjusts the lineup for game 4.
lines 3 and 4 are useless right now.
I think wagner and Ritchie need to sit.
Like to see Blidh on 4th line LW
debrusk-coyle-kuhlman
blidh-kuraly-lazar

Cassidy won't make 2 changes after a win.
He may make 1 player move and adjust lines.
Kuhlman for Ritchie and adjust lines.

Paille was a great skater, great defender, could win a puck battle, even could stickhandle fairly well, but when it came to shooting he was lost

 

[GoBs]

palmieri was sitting there facing the boards with his numbers facing kuraly. That was 100% a penalty and a stupid one on kuralys part

Things are happening so friggen fast and big deal they had to kill off penalties
How many games have you watched where there was no power plays for either team
Guys get off the penalties and the poor reffing

I honestly have no idea what you are trying to say here

 

[veganbruin]

Would like to see Frederic in for DeBrusk or Ritchie.

 

[Serpico]

I see Frederic's friends and family have come to post and suggest that he is put into the lineup. Until someone is injured on the 4th line... nope.

I agree that I don't expect it to happen, but in my estimation it should... just not getting enough from the 4th line. I'd sit Wags and either make Kuraly play his off wing, or put him at C and move Lazar to RW. We could use some more heaviness, and Freddy has way more skill than anyone currently on the 4th line.

Sure that was and should have been a penalty just like many others that were not called. I don't mind the refs letting more things go , as long as its consistent for both sides. I hate when refs call ticky tack fouls inconsistently.

 

[Dennis Bonvie]

Like who?

 

[Ladyfan]

Now that we're down all our RD, I just want to say that Steve Kampfer, you are a turd for walking out on this team when they needed you. Go enjoy Russia, loser.

Apply ice packs then wrap him in cotton wool in between games.

He’s the man. He’s gonna be Chuck Norris one day.

I see what you did there.

What ticky tacky penalties have they called against the bruins this series?

 

[HockeyMomx2]

Oh, is he going to be able to change over the entire ice system before Monday? He's a guru for sure if that's the case.

 

[DKH]

As they should be...

Coyle overall has shown that extra level he had in 2019

it’s a crime they didn’t resign Mojo

these two were a match made in heaven
