They are definitely having issues. They have 3 regulation wins this month. You can stat watch all you want but they aren’t telling the story if you aren’t watching the games.
He got squished by Lowry in third, he held his arm all the way to the bench and was seen in pain. He did finish the game, but it didn’t look good
Looking at wins and losses is stat watching now? I said above they’re in a slide right now. Some context is in order though.
So, Brad is the problem?Good lord.....
YOU need to get some sleep
He's definitely nursing his arm/shoulder. He's not engaging in hits or wanting to participate in them. Hopefully during the break he'll rest up. But to me, he's definitely hurting.
Is it a smart TV?LOL, had the post game show on and my TV changed channels on its own. Like, the tv said "that's enough, I'm changing the channel."
Yes it is. The grandkids love it when they come over but I hate it...Is it a smart TV?
Team is not overly talented imo. Coaches can only do so much. Top 6 is average outside of Pasta and Marchy. Bottom 6 is average. D is average. Goaltenders are elite. This results un a slightly above average team.
That's the problem though right? They will be good enough at deadline they won't trade their expiring contracts for prospects/picks, they might even try to add and dig the hole deeper only to early exit again.
It's not easy to be both undersized and slow, but they've managed it.
The bruins have perfected it! I think they’re growing these guys in the equipment room.
Mac is a minus player (-6), and he showed why last night at the end of the 1st period. He charged in to make a very good pass that was just missed for a tip in, but then instead of reversing and getting back into position, he lazily kept skating all the way behind the opposing net and was hopelessly caught up the ice for the first goal. He gets caught too many times.
I’m more inclined to cut him some slack. Although he’s been fighting it for one reason or another lately.
I think you are on to something. That's why Carolina gives them such fits, especially there. I went last year and I said after the game it was the worst I'd ever seen them play. I don't think they came close to scoring a goal in that game.
You can't forecheck if you never get the puck in the other team's zone. Just sayin'.
I'm not suggesting the coach turn an "average" team into something else. Just correct some obvious problems. At least try to make progress towards correcting them
Really? I’ve been a Bruins fan, in Toronto, since I was a kid in the early 70s, post 72 tho. I’ve died with them repeatedly, and yet here I still am. Does that meet your standards, or . . . ?Definition of a bandwagon jumper(aka me with the Pats) but with Bruins, got to live and die with them, for richer or poorer, in sickness and health, until death do you part
“Truly care”. Yesterday was meh. It’s losing in the Cup Final that does it to me, or losing in the first round last year. My point is that they’re not an “up and coming” team with a bright future, they’re a declining team. Until they rebuild, if they do, or retool, and are an exciting young team again, I’m not going to invest a great deal of emotional energy into them. Some? Sure. A ton? Nope. Not yet. 15 times bitten twice shy (was also a Red Sox fan through 75, 78, 86, etc. Was never a Pats fan so. Never got to experience that. Living in TO I was a Bills fan (sorry!
), alas. More heartdeath). Still, here I am. Regardless, one post does not a fan make or a fan break.
Agreed, and anyone who hangs out here with us in the lunatic fringe must be invested…sadly I still can’t give up on being a Red Sox diehard, born into it…Peace, enjoy the holidays“Truly care”.
