Pre-Game Talk: Game 1 - 1/14 7:07 pm - Hibernation ends in beautiful downtown Newark - NESN, 98.5 WBZ-FM

[FrankerC]

Got my Bs gear on, it actually feels like a game night and damn it feels good! I'm ready for the Captain Bergy era.

 

[Bruinaura]

Wonder how many guys in the league have been linemates that long? Anybody? Cuz that's a really long time

 

[BAD BOY]

I've got 5 things that would mean the difference of having a good regular season or not.

1. Not as reliant on Perfection for scoring.
2. Kase stays healthy and gets some chemistry with 46 and 74.
3. Lauzon is effective in Z's spot.
4. Rask.
5. How good is the D depth?

# 3 is the key one imo

They haven't been linemates for 11 year.

Teammates, yes.

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

I don’t see it

Kase better be on a short leash, have zero faith in this kid to be anything in a Bruin uniform lets hope I'm wrong

Yes, Marchand started on the fourth line, but by the end of his rookie season they were linemates, weren't they?

Don't think so.

they became linemates sometime in late 2010/early 2011. close enough lol.

 

[Oates2Neely]

Don't think so.

2011 Marchand Bergeron Recchi. I believe they were linemates the season prior as well.

Call it intuition but I’ve got a feeling Kase surprises many of us this season and becomes an offensive leader on this team.

Really?

Didn't realize that.

I stand corrected.

 

[Alicat]

Too early to call this a trap game?

I really hope the pace of play has improved in New Jersey because they are so boring to watch.

 

[RussellmaniaKW]

Really?

Didn't realize that.

I stand corrected.

i mean... you watched the Cup run in 2011 right? Marchand-Bergeron-Recchi was a fixture by the time the playoffs started. I just can't remember when Marchand was first put on that line. I wanna say November or December of 2010 because he wasn't on the 4th line for long.

 

[Alicat]

Really?

Didn't realize that.

I stand corrected.

Marchy got pulled up to that line after starting on the Merlot line and then Paille took his spot on the line and the rest was magic.

It may have been either right before or right after we got Peverley and Kelly

# 3 is the key one imo

On the PK it will be tough but 5 on 5 Chara is easily replaceable

 

[BMC]

*Chapter 3, paragraph 2, subsection 1993: Bruins fans may root for a Canadiens win in the regular season under the following circumstances:

a) The win will cause the Bruins to make the playoffs (or is likely to significantly increase their chances.)
b) The Canadiens have already been eliminated from the playoffs, and a win by the Canadiens will give a Western Conference team a better shot at the #1 draft pick

Under such circumstances, it is imperative to note that the Bruins fan is not truly rooting for the Canadiens to win; rather, they are rooting for another team to lose.

This is excellent!
