Team has looked sloppy and uninspired the last few games I watched. Definitely in a rut, but they'll figure it out. Wondering if they are hitting a wall and some Cup fatigue is setting in?

If things don't change soon, I'd start to consider calling up a couple kids from Providence and playing them while resting a couple vets. Get some new energy in the lineup.
I would sit Hienen in a second. For just about anybody.

This guy cant break a sweat the way he plays.

Spent every shift getting out of the Capitals way last night.

This is insanely over reactionary

DeBrusk was out for a couple weeks and we all couldn’t wait for him to get back because the second line sucked without him

He also would have had a point yesterday if the play wasn’t ruled offsides

The last thing this team needs is more grinder types in favor of skill players :laugh:

OK.

What would you like to see.

Well I am not sure what to expect . No injuries and a nice win please.

I am happy that Bergy is back and I like Bjork.
I like Bjork too. Ritchie as well.

Would trade Hienen for a 3rd rounder this afternoon.

Literally the worst time of the year to rear it's ugly head too.

Tale as old as time that the whistles are put away in the playoffs.

5-on-5 is where the cup is gonna be won.
We all know it but Sweeney needs to go all in this year. Get that second line wing and some toughness. We won't beat the Caps with this lineup.

How much do I despise the leafs?

Well this is a win win game for me. A bruins lose results in Tampa moving up standings and pushing leafs down. Otherwise I take the win and be happy my bruins won. Lol.

Honest question...

Why are people so scared of Tampa? They've been playing barely above .500, uninspired hockey for the entire season.

Haven't won more than 3 in a row all year, and managed to do that only once.

I think we look at their record last season and are just waiting for them to hit that high gear again. In a way, a losing streak could be a positive thing since the Bolts cruised all season long and then collapsed when it mattered. A losing streak can magnify the weaknesses, so it isn't always a bad thing to go through. I'm glad the B's have a 10 point cushion right now, it makes the struggle a bit easier to take. Just wake up soon!

Im not. I didnt think Tampa was as good as their record last year. I think it will be a high scoring game tonite though. prob at least 10 goals.

Maybe, but the season was only 48 games long.

LOL. You are making my case for me.

That makes their point differential over everyone else even more impressive, no? Chicago had 77 pts in 48 games, which is the equivalent of 132 pts in a regular season.

The Bruins had only 62 pts that season.

Love how Felger and Mazz take up Bruins talk when they are on a losing streak. They had the Bruins minute when they won 8 in a row. Now 4 game losing streak, talking for a half hour lol
Also those fools over the other station too. They must have had enough of washing Belichick’s balls 24/7. Lol
