Wait, seriously??? That's a little aggressive if you ask me. That changes whether or not I want to go, which I was planning on doing

are you vacc'ed??
no issues if you are. I hope they make it that far.

I mean, anyone in Mass who wants a vaccine has had more than enough time to get one. Can't wait to hear the Garden rocking. "This building is VIBRATING!"

New York is pulling all mask mandates and social distance restrictions as of Wednesday. Wish we would move quicker here.

I know. get some real home ice advantage for game 3

 

[Blowfish]

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?

I agree but what about the 3rd line? That was a train wreck, although thought Kuraly had a decent game.

Move Coyle back to center and see if that works before you start messing with it

will islanders have a full house??

 

[Mione134]

Any ideas on how injured Lauzy is? I hope he'll be alright.

Cliffy Hockey tonight. He's gotta bring it.

Top line better show up. More urgency. BETTER PASSING.

I'm excited to see the only line that showed up last game again! 4th line mania. The right chaotic energy we needed. And playoff Jake is back. No excuses tonight.

I agree
debrusk-coyle-lazar should be line 3
ritchie-kuraly-wagner line 4

took a slap shot to the hand
Missed a few shifts in the 2nd
Don’t know how bad it is

 

[BruinsFanMike82]

In the extremely limited time on ice together since the 2018-19 season (26:24), the Connor Clifton/Kevan Miller combo have been on the ice for 2 goals allowed and 0 goals for.

Yeah and that's the kind of shit that really hurts the next day

If he was going to be out for the rest of the playoffs there would have been an announcement by now so my guess is that they just want to rest him.

Hopefully it is just a bruise

 

[Ladyfan]

Oh good lord people are already calling to put Connor “10 points in 94 games with below average D” Clifton in the lineup

I would put Steve Kampfer in over Clifton

 

[RussellmaniaKW]

I'll be happy to be wrong if Cliffton comes in and has a great game. They can certainly use his energy and he should push the pace.

I just don't buy all the Tinordi counter-arguments about how we need more puckmovers and a guy like Tinordi would be a disaster. The Caps have guys like Dillon & Chara in the lineup and we couldn't solve them. Why does big, physical D work for them but wouldn't for us?

As a side note for prospect watchers:

Because Tinordi is nowhere close to Dillon or Chara, other than size.

 

[Gordon Lightfoot]

This Bruins team "turns the other cheek."

I don’t think that’s really true. I like what Lauzon did, and McAvoy will throw big hits. Miller and Ritchie are also physical. I just want to see a bit more... although more goals is even better.

I want both.

 

[Ladyfan]

Bruins 4...Craps 2.

Wilson goes to run one of the Bs and takes himself out.

 

[smithformeragent]

Showing Ken Burns' Civil War in class.

A Union Soldier stated that after Vicksburg, he wanted to "lick a small man".
I had to explain to the snickering students that he meant he wanted to fight and defeat a Confederate, not "Pull a Brad Marchand".

Don't be weird.

 

[s3antana5757]

I hereby declare the name of this garage “Washington Capitals”. Therefore, the bear is on top of the Caps and the same will be said henceforth after tonight’s game
