Time for the Bruins to man up
I wish I had a few bucks for each time I've said that over the past several weeks.
Regardless of whether they squeak in or not, one stretch of games told me everything I needed to know about this team.
March 15 - Washington LOSS
March 17 - Buffalo KISS YOUR SISTER POINT
March 19 - Ottawa LOSS
March 21 - Florida KISS YOUR SISTER POINT, BUT GIVE A REACH AROUND TO YOUR COMPETITOR IN PROCESS
Three absolutely critical head to head match-ups with the teams you are literally battling with for a spot in the playoffs and the worst team in the league for a slam dunk easy two. Win two of three outright against your competitors and snag the easy two from Buffalo and we are talking about 7th place or catching Detroit for a higher spot. Regular season done and playoffs effectively locked down solid.
What do we get? 2 points. And to add insult to injury we gave Florida a full 2 points in the process of our settling for our Participation Pin prize of one point.
Right now we are sitting at picking 13th. A few more heartless, gutless, crappy showings (in other words replicate the crap show referenced above) and we could be picking 9th. At this point that would be a huge huge success in my book.
