Pre-Game Talk: EDSF Game 2 5/17 7:40 PM - Bruins look to tie up series - NESN, NBCSN, CBC, SN4K, TVAS, 98.5 WBZ-FM

[northeastern]

Same lines as Monday for Washington

Looking at that goalie spot closely. Man goalies are strange I'd hate to have to make the decision of who to go with because either way it's a gamble.


Bruins stars need to move their feet and more pucks on net. This roster isn't made to play hit only hockey they need to finish hits when they have it but attack the feet of the caps d. Play fast physical hockey and keep the caps running around. Excited to see if the bruins find their game.

gotta get pasta going.
if he looks off early on swap him with smith.
pasta has not been good since tge outdoor game.

 

[Gordoff]

Really need to hit Kuznetsov (if he plays) and Backstrom. Like super hard. Not liking seeing Krejci getting nailed without a payback.

This Bruins team "turns the other cheek."

 

[Dennis Bonvie]

could be Tuukkas last game as a Bruin if we dont come away with a W.

What an odd thought.

 

[Gordoff]

This kind of explains it - it is annoying

From the first video of "unleash the fury:"

"It really is the most amazing thing to see in professional sports."
Really? Nonsense!

In the movie "Road Trip" Tom Green screams "unleash the fury" at his friends pet snake (that he's watching). He's trying to get the snake to eat a mouse but the snake just ignores it....
Hopefully, the Caps ignore it too.

What an odd thought.

not really.
i dont think hes coming back next year. I think he will retire.
and if we get blown out tonite I think Swayman starts game 3.

I hate this move, really prefer Tinordi in this series. Clifton is too much of a wild card right now. Plus why force someone to play their off side?

Wonder if Tinordi is banged up.

 

[DarrenBanks56]

who do you guys think cliffy should pair with?
hes played well the last month.

 

[RussellmaniaKW]

Anderson playing again despite Samsonov apparently being available is a gift from the hockey gods. Anderson was "successful" in game 1 purely in a numerical sense, but he failed the eye test brutally. If the Bruins put high danger shots on this guy he should absolutely fold.

Could also be that Tinordi has not been good at all, and Clifton has far outperformed on the ice.

Then somebody needs to get Barbie Girl on the radio, pregame!!!

Still mad about Saturday but today is a whole new day. Just win baby!

 

[Gordoff]

Can someone put up that "why can't we have both" commercial bit?
I would really like to see both Tinordi and Clifton in vs. the Caps.
We need pace setters. Get the team ramped up and excited instead of
the semi-docile, skate the lane, overpass game-plan we're experiencing now.

I think Cliffy is the better option. He can play both sides, but yeah he’s probably more comfortable on the right.

Cliffy brings more speed than Tinordi and played pretty good hockey down the stretch.

Home teams that win Game 2 in the series to go up 2-0 win 89% of the time

Road teams that win Game 2 to tie the series 1-1 win the series 48% of the time

this is close to a must win

let’s go boys

Smart move Krech you wouldn’t like what you see.

Just stop with this nonsense

 

[BruinsBtn]

There's no excuse for not beating Craig Anderson. C'mon Bruins. Stop missing the net.

I think we still need guys that can move the puck up as well. Cliffy brings that, I don’t think Tinordi does. The speed of playoff hockey may limit Tinordi’s effectiveness similar to how it does Chara at his age.

TD GARDEN 100% CAPACITY MAY 29

LETS MAKE IT THAT FAR BOYS

 

[Greek_physique]

Need a better start...crash the net and make life hectic for Anderson.

 

[Alicat]

There is no reason to sit Wagner in favor of Frederic or Kuhlman.

The 4th line was the best line in game 1. Leave it alone.

Kuraly's been playing great as of late so he stays in.

Clifton is the logical choice to go in for Lauzon as he plays a similar type of game. He also lead the team in hits this season and isn't that what everyone says we need more of tonight?

Why wouldn't you play a guy who can skate, has some offense and can hit like a mac truck and cleanly?
