Hell of a team effort.

All the young D look at the very least serviceable. Lauzon looks like a stud. Pretty insane second round of drafting in 2015 for the bruins.

Whats the ceiling for Grzelcyk? Ryan Ellis seems like a hits-his-ceiling comparable, maybe with better stick work. Incredibly impressive few games from him.

Cassidy deserves a whole lot of credit.

Sooner than later Heinen's snap shot is coming back and Bjork will be netting a few of these. When that happens... watch out.

Doesn’t have the natural skill to be Ellis good. Ellis dominated Junior hockey and the World Juniors as a dynamic offensive player.

Off the top of my head I can’t think of a real good comparison. Darryl Sydor maybe ?!?

Either this was from 2011 or Cam placed a hefty bet on tonight's game.:sarcasm:

This team is missing 5 of 6 starting D, and their best forward. Just get into the playoffs they'll go on a run.

Yes.

Gut win, though. I'm impressed.

It's going to be a rough ride without Z, and, perhaps, Patrice. Never mind the D.

Would say: Trial by fire, yet this has to be an excellent way for the youngin's to learn the NHL game. Can't imagine that the experience will be anything but constructive.

What happened?

Nurse fighting Bennett.
Nurse tells refs to not step into fight.
Bennett huge open ice hit on Draistatl.
Tkachuk chirping and trolling the Oilers.
Kassian double minor for grabbing Tkachuk and he turtles.
McDavid getting into brawls.
Lucic and Tkachuk chirping across the benches.

...end of 1st.

This is going to be the game of the year so far tonight.

Gaudreau rings the crossbar at the last second on the PP.
Calgary on 4:00 PP to start the 2nd.
Understandable the difference in hostility between the Bruins game tonight and a Calgary Edmonton game. But man, it’s like watching a different sport

Burke on HNIC begging Marchand to stop with the antic because he loves him. Saying Marchand is one of the most complete players in the NHL and repeatedly says he loves him but the clown-show antics need to stop. Says GM or Neely need to sit him down. And then more love for Marchand from Burke.

Pretty accurate feelings and how many Bruins fans feel too.

I must say, the craziest thing watching these last two games is seeing two 5'9" left shot defenseman deployed as a tandem on the PK...and getting the job done. This is the new NHL.

It really is. I'm grabbing another Mule and making some popcorn for this one. In contrast, the Bruins game was on in the background to casually watch.
