Post-Game Talk: GAME 15 - BRUINS shuffle out of Buffalo with 2 points - BRUINS 5 Buffalo 2

[Bradely]

When Lucic returns he cannot be the only guy hitting and settling issues. They need another wing who will hit. Duhaime, Kunin, Jason Dickinson, Trenin, Acciari. None of them are on very good teams, all are a bit older and Sweeney should be able to get them for a mid level Steen like prospect or as part of a bigger deal with Minnesota or San Jose where Duhaime and Kunin are concerned.

The D just needs anybody in the bottom pair that will hit and protect the goalies. I don't care if he is 5'7 or 6'5 just hammer somebody if they run Ullmark or Swayman.

They played well last night but they need to get tougher, this is not the "tougher to play against" Montgomery espoused before the season, they may be playing softer without Greer.

I was a little bit surprise to read that you don't care if the hitter is 5'7 or 6'5.... lol. Feel strange reading this from you but at the same time I understand what you are saying.

Marchand's really busting his ass, whether it's leading by example or because they're so reliant on the top line for offense, but he's going hard much more often when he had the luxury of picking his spots before. Pastrnak too but not to the same extent. He's going to wear down. They need a center so they can get DeBrusk going and take some of the pressure off.

Flames are open for buisness & Lindholm in there waiting to be rescued

Marchand definitely needs a different center. He and Pasta are trying to do a little of everything and they will wear down and possibly get injured.

It was a pretty sparse crowd and the seats that were full were basically a sea of black and gold.

The Sabres are just not a very good team and live it appeared that the Bruins were on cruise control most of the game after jumping out to the early lead.

I hear-ed a few Booo Birds...

 

[Bruinator]

That body slam to pasta should have been answered by everybody

Would have been a good opportunity for Lorhei to step up. I guess he is just still a little bit too green

Need to make another deal to get a 1st to trade to Calgary.

Simple as that.

 

[22Brad Park]

Simple as that.

Good bet he is Sweeneys target though whether it be this season or in off season.

 

[dafoomie]

Simple as that.

I wonder if there's a position where they have a surplus of players and one of them would get a 1st. Maybe a position that you can only have two of.

I know what you are getting at here but there is a catch with Ullmark having 16 team no trade list .Swayman to me is longterm future we can agree right ?

You mean the position that is the reason why this team is 12-1-2?

And was 62-12-5 last season?

Hopefully that gets them out of the first round this year..

That and defence is Bruins position of strength though so if they want to fix biggest weakness thats the area they will need to deal from.Bruins can't afford to part with that 2025 1st unless it's a homerun like Lindholm involved in my humble opinion

They've had to be because they can't win when they give up 3 goals. Use the surplus on one end to address the deficit on the other, Swayman doesn't need the training wheels anymore. I will accept losing more regular season games if it makes them a better team from April on when it's usually one guy in net.

I was looking forward to watching the game tonight and wondering when the gdt would go up until I looked it up and realized there was no game tonight. Stupid nhl schedule.

Yeah, but when was the last time a goaltender was traded and got back #1st round pick? Honest question....

Fleury got shipped to Minnesota at the deadline for a conditional 2nd rounder, the year after he won the Vezina... It would have been a 1st if the Wild reached the Western Conference finals.

That's the closest I can recall of a goalie bringing back a 1st rounder in recent memory.
