Post-Game Talk: GAME 30 - BRUINS 4 Columbus 2

[JOKER 192]

Really hope we see Marchand produce at even strength soon

Starting to get worried about him

Not so much worried about 5 on 5 as I am about overall play. He gets hits points because of an elite skill set but he looks off. Sometimes he looks way off. He hasn't looked like himself like most of the season since he's been back but when you're better than PPG , not sure how you can have a problem with that.

Not concerned. He usually carries the team on his back a lot in the regular season so I’m hoping he has more in the tank come playoff time.

Had to fly to East Coast .My mom will be heading up to watch Peter McNab and Milt play very soon. Happy Bruins won for her today even though she could not open her eyes to watch.I will take any happiness I can get at this point.Go Bruins!

So sorry.

They were bound to slide a little as the schedule tightened up. 24-4-2 is not too shabby.

People can’t expect them to continue at this rate

 

[Terrier]

Considering that Swayman's shot went through the crease, the least they could have done was WAVE OFF THE ICING.

Prayers for you and your mom

< idol of mine and reason I continued to play goal at a young age.

To all of those with health issues both yourselves and family, prayers going out especially during the holidays.

Bergy just gave the team "the look" and they got the message. Couldn't lose on Patrice Bergeron Day, it's like a holy day in Boston.

I've been chewed out by my parents before, and rightfully so.
But when my grandmother gave me "the look" I got the point immediately and it stuck with me more than any words.

 

[DKH]

Grzelcyk was outstanding second game in a row

I thought Carlo played perfect complement for Lindholm who looked pre McAvoy dominant. Love to see their stats seemed to dominate 5x5 against a group of high end forwards (defense killing Columbus)

Frederic solid yesterday- got a little Adam Deadmarsh in him. He’s developing very well

 

[AngryMilkcrates]

I love that Espo did this.
I know he still holds a gripe with the org. But he did not let that keep him from honoring one of the league's best players and people.

Thanks, Espo.

 

[Donnie Shulzhoffer]

Are there better players than TFred out there? Yes there are.
Is he the biggest need for a SCR? No he's not.
I don't want to go I to the PO'S with Grizz.
Way bigger concern for me than TFred.


Great take . Why better a SCC team when you can just sit on you ass and do nothing.

And just what are you going to do about it?

I was a bit ugly at times but in the end all was well.

Before the game (during the pre-game skate) there was a girl and her Mom on the glass hoping for a puck. They were from NH. The girl had gone for treatment in Boston in the morning and her mom surprised her with tickets to the game. They were just on the glass for the pre-game. The little girl did not have much hair due to her treatments.

I let Keith Babineau know, and he went back and got her two Bs hats. One was grey and purple for the cancer stuff. She was thrilled. A bit later I told Matty Falconer and asked if he thought one of the Bs could get her a puck. Lindy skated over to the bench for an equipment issue and Matty told him and pointed out the young girl. Lindy got her a puck. It's just little things but it means so much to the kids.

Bergy's family is so damn cute. Brad was SO happy for Bergy.

The game was kind of ugly but the results were good!

Thank you and the staff for being so kind to the young one. Good hearts on people should be celebrated more than they are.

@Gee Wally that’s a lovely picture! I’m still wrapping my head around how you don’t look like Walter Matheau. I was so convinced….

that pic was a long, long time ago. Now? I’d break the internet.

Lol we hired a mid 20s young lady a few months back. In that time she’s assumed I’m approaching retirement several times now.

I’m in my 40s. I gotta turn this ship around apparently

pshaw... they'd never do that. Hasn't been a rule for arond two decades. Can't imagine refs messing that up.

You have a good point.
The entire playoffs should be a “grandma trip”, they wouldn’t lose a game.

Other thread... I just had that cold water thrown on me. But was more because someone thought I was homeless and offered me money.
I did have a young university age girl offer me her seat on the bus a few weeks ago though. My snarky (funny) daughter who was with me at the time gave me a rough draft of her eulogy for me later in the day. 'I knew it was near the end when we were on the bus and...'
I unfortunately taught my kids that trash-talking can be pretty funny.

That picture was You and the Bride? At first glance I thought it was Tony and Stephanie from Saturday Night Fever.

Love Linus’ “shot” before the hug!

Love Linus’ “shot” before the hug!

This is what team chemistry looks like

 

[burstnbloom]

For the record I have always thought Carlo was one of the best shutdown D's in the NHL . This is not sarcasm.
Anything I say negative about our goalies or Carlo is in jest



Some folks on here are constantly finding fault with him regardless of how well he plays so I add a little sarcasm

Ok we are same team. Well done
