Pre-Game Talk: Game 16 7:28 PM - THE BEAR invites Gritty to go fishing on Lake Tahoe - NBCSN, SN, TVAS, 98.5 WBZ-FM

[Bruinaura]

I am thrilled to be a part of this team



​

Are you going to be up on that scaffolding? That would give me the heebie jeebies lol

 

[UConn126]

My guess for the lineup we see:

Marchand-Bergeron-Pasta
DeBrusk-Coyle-Smith
Ritchie-Kuraly-Stud
Bjork-Freddy-Wagner

Lauzon-McAvoy
Moore-Carlo
Vaak-Clifton

Alternate take on the bottom 9:

Ritchie-Coyle-Smith
DeBrusk-Kuraly-Wagner (maybe putting JDB with the usual 4th line will help energize him, and help boost Kuraly and Wagner's game)
Bjork-Freddy-Stud (could be cool to see a kids line)

 

[Jean_Jacket41]

50% of the top-6 D are out.

Still, this doesn’t look too bad even with #7,8,9D in the lineup.

Lauzon-McAvoy
Vaak-Carlo
Moore-Clifton

Bruins are in great shape on D. Very deep, skilled, fast and improving.

 

[Alicat]

They probably will give the A to McAvoy. He's worn the A for Team USA and at BU. Will be well deserved

 

[Alicat]

Can you rig that thing to drop cookies at intermission?

oooh. Speaking of cookies, I just made a fresh batch this afternoon

Moore-Clifton

Sweeney better be calling Preds GM steady..If they do not find a top 4 D man it could be over b4 it starts..They do not score goals and have a couple really suspect guys on Defence in Miller and Grezlyck.Anyways I will cheer them on but it sure would feel nice if Sweeney could finally get this right at a deadline.

I prefer this D. Moore and Carlo were toxic and then some last night. Moore needs to play with a mobile partner while Carlo and Vaak can be that shutdown pair

 

[Dr Hook]

Are we sure Miller is out? All we have is the Joey Mac tweet, right?

 

[Alicat]

Joe is pretty well connected but we won't know until the Bruins practice tomorrow unless they choose to say something tonight

 

[22Brad Park]

Dr Hook, I cannot see him putting his rep on the line if not sure.Regardless this is what Sweeney needed to see.He simply has to trade for help.Would any smart GM trust this backend in a playoff series vs the teams in this division?These teams play alot tighter then Leafs & habs .

 

[kjpm]

I hope that's all it is....

I noticed Miller had a bit of an awkward collision behind the net with a Devil at one point last night, I think later in the game. Kind of looked like he made contact with his knee and I cringed at the time. Hope it's nothing but it did stand out to me.

 

[BMC]

It must be an injury.

And it might not even be his knee. I'm hoping anyway. Does that make me a bad person???

 

[rfournier103]

They have finally captured the feel of old time pond hockey.

Only took ‘em the better part of two decades.

What I want to know is do you think even one of them will remember to set an alarm to let them know what time the game starts?

The Bruins seem to have difficulty showing up on time for games.

 

[aguineapig]

It's neither Canadian nor Rockies but this song started playing in my head seeing this pic.

 

[Dr Hook]

And it might not even be his knee. I'm hoping anyway. Does that make me a bad person???

Not in my book- better a groin strain or hammy pull than a knee or just being so worn down that one game after a week off was too much.

Had a good laugh at "heebie jeebies "

Fortunately, we use a hydraulic lift to get on top

Just send the cookies

Do you get to fly one of the drones?

 

[Fenway]

[Fenway]

Do you get to fly one of the drones?

No. A company from Hollywood will work the drones and based on practice today the shots will be spectacular.

 

[Aussie Bruin]

Yeah it all looks amazing. I'm a bit jealous!

It'd still be a "nope!" from me lol.

Heights and I do not get along.
