Exactly this!
Having a solid tandem is a luxury in this day and age.
Even a decent starter is a wet dream for large amount of teams.
We've been spoiled.

Come on, I like Halak but he is a good backup goalie. I would not bet on him during playoffs because he is very streaky. He can be godlike in one game and in another get five on five. You can ask Islanders fans whether they would rather go with Rask or Halak. Majority would say Rask. I would like him to stay on this team with some acceptable deal. 2-3 mill
Halak has been a #1 on 3 diiferent team over his career.I really dont get why this fanbase is so against Tuuka. He has been solid year after year and especially during playoffs, with good stats. There arent many goalies better than him.
Assumption... what if. ! Who would have thought those two teams would have lose last year! I am in admiration in front of people who have the confidence in themselves to the point that they simply know and confirms so with insurance.Not on the strength of the team alone. If Tampa Bay or Washington hadn't lost earlier the Bruins would not have gotten past either of them to the Final.

Aaaaaaaaaand it made no sense.I don't understand a word of this. But that's ok, it is the end of the day and I'm tired.

English is not his first language. It happens. He’ll figure it out and post again
I didn't know that. Now I feel bad.
No problem, i might be the only one understanding what i meant.... lol. I will try again at one point ...I didn't know that. Now I feel bad.
Agree and that’s why I still haven’t really moved on from game seven, such a wasted opportunity for another cup, the path to the finals definitely won’t happen again without playing one or both this seasonNot on the strength of the team alone. If Tampa Bay or Washington hadn't lost earlier the Bruins would not have gotten past either of them to the Final.
This team played a great game against a full squad utilizing bully tactics when they couldn't beat the Bruins with true skill. The officiating was, as usual atrocious. The problem is that Sweeney and Co are going for speed and skill but teams like St. Louis and Washington are allowed to pull nonsense and get away with it. Yes it's the same thing that won us a cup against Vancouver. Wouldn't have happened otherwise. It was true before and it's true today, you can't have a team that's one dimensional and win it all if the officiating and league are going to constantly allow what they do on a nightly basis. Even the most talented teams in NHL history have always had tough guys, the Bruins really are outgunned when it comes to the hitting and grit game. Don't know if we'd have less injuries but there has to be an equalizer when the going gets nasty and the Bruins just don't have that kind of element to this team. They did a great job tonight (until the OT/SO) but they really did get slapped around too much for my liking.
Agree bigtimeIve been banging this drum for a week now.. but butch is going to burn this team out quick.. i miss the days of trusting all four lines.. he is basically rotating 9 guys and 4 d when the going gets tough .. the team looked exhausted.. and its only in the beginning of the season.. have some trust and coach these kids to at least give you a few shifts in the third period
Still thinking of that shootout the other night....aaahhhhh ! Krejci had him beat ,just needed to drift a couple of feet to the right and roof it instead if trying to chip it over his pad. Wagner had him beat, also, opened up the 5 hole nice and had room and just missed finding it by literally 2 or 3 inches. Again.....aaaahhhh.....lol
