Post-Game Talk: GAME 33 - B's get sabrered - Buffalo 4 BRUINS 2 - On to Poutineville

[KrejciMVP]

The leafs would be my first choice to face. Why should the Bruins fear those pretenders. Avoid TB and Wash

 

[sarge88]

im sorry but buffalo is not going to finish ahead of us if we get bergie and chara back.

we will be behind toronto and tampa and be in another game 7 with toronto.

I’d trade him in a heartbeat for the right return.

Heck, I’d trade Bergeron too......but only for pieces that would likely never be offered....i.e. McDavid, types.

Gonna guess this made many here bemoan not picking up skinner

 

[Mr. Make-Believe]

when fans invest this much emotion in a game... and spends billions of dollars every year to support the business

you simply MUST find a way to have better officiating.

if they are willing to take 10 mins to decide if a skate was on the ice or an inch in the air ( AND THATS TO TAKE AWAY A GOAL LOL) then all this crap about an official intending to INCORRECTLY PREMATURELY MISTAKENLY blow a play dead HAS TO BE ADDRESSED

i mean... that is their argument right? i was going to be wrong, so since i intended to be wrong we have to follow through. not only was i wrong but i was incompetent too. i meant to incorrectly blow the whistle but i failed. still... no sense trying to fix it. i tried to be wrong, so give me a second chance so i can screw the fans over

bruins played well enough to win today... put enough pucks in the goal to get the job done... but once again officiating screwed us over

do better nhl... do better

This is legit my favourite post from you in maybe five years. Bang on.

The rule isn’t just nonsense, it’s nonsense in neon f***ing lights. It bends the fans over and has its way with them while shouting “You like that?? You like how f***ing incompetent I am?? Yeah!! Take it!!"

Dead in the head indeed.

Not really. Injuries have destroyed this team this year . I just hope it’s not too late by the time the Bruins get everybody back .

 

[JOKER 192]

Next up....The Poutine Swillers.

If we don't beat them I just might commit hari kari.

You? Imagine me who has to live among these arrogant f***s .

I give skinner props for being streaky... and what better time to get streaky then a contract year?

I was not in favor of evander kane last year... didnt want to be stuck with his next contract. Max pacioretti... james neal... david perron

These guys in their contract years about to hijack their team are... dangerous

How much blood will the fans call for if buffalo doesn't give skinner 51 mill on a 6 year deal now?

Thank god it wont be us watching his inconsistent play on an underperforming second line the next half decade at 8.5 mill

But props for putting out an effort now during his contract season. I am always impressed when these guys can continue to get these longterm contracts despite such poor play 1/2 the time

 

[JOKER 192]

I mean that whole line was the Bruins best and that's a huge plus despite the loss.

Yeah, just that it rarely amounts to anything is problem.

 

[BBB24]

maybe. but bergy and chara in there tonite. no way that runt skinner scores 2 goals and eichel puts up 4 points.
we will be fine once they come back.

I’ll say “we will be better once they are back”, I don’t think I can use the term “fine” until some moves are made to fill the obvious holes

 

[wintersej]

Actually, that line was probably the best for Boston tonight. I find it humorous that Heinen gets singled out, when not only did he have several good chances, he also set Donato up several times, who didn’t finish. In addition, Donato gives a freaking lame effort on a penalty shot attempt. Yet, I don’t see anyone including him in every trade proposal that comes down the pike

It’s a problem when two rookies and a second year guy are the team’s best line in a game. Marchand and Pasta were MIA again and Pasta had a number of bad turnovers. When a team is missing two Top 6 F’s, you need secondary scoring, but you also need your best players to be your best players.

They weren’t.

Pasta was bad.

 

[JOKER 192]

The only way dead in the head should be applied is . If an official is dead in the head he should be put out to pasture.

Shea Weber and his 15367 MPH slap shot tomorrow.... Bruins better wear full face masks made out of Kevlar

Way overrated. Let him shoot, the closest he gets is hitting he post .

obviously you dont overrate him

 

[JOKER 192]

Sorry if I'm not impressed with him. Look at the teams the Habs have been playing lately. They played two decent, not great teams, in the Wild and SJ and lost 3 times. Scoring 1 goal in each game they lost. All other teams they have played are in the bottom tier of the league since Weber's return . If that impresses you , your a different man than I.

 

[Fenway]

The problem is we may be to far out to make the playoffs once they get back.

One problem is the B's don't have that many head to head games left in the division. After tomorrow they have one with Poutineville, 1 with Toronto and 2 with Buffalo.

Regulation losses are starting to hurt them in playoff math

We are certainly going to need some heroics.....

 

[JOKER 192]

When you take a team like the Bruins, who went into the season with a 2rw and 3c handicap, and then you throw in all the injuries they have to deal with, this team has over achieved. Like it or not, in large part due then the outstanding performance of Halak early in the season.

I guess i look at his career? Then i factor in his injury?

Are we limited only judging him on last 2 weeks?

 

[AngryMilkcrates]

Great insight and reporting lol NO s***

Hyenas tend to keep away from their prey. But if they come to an injured animal they gang up and frenzy.

Meet the Boston Media.

I'll let you fill in the names for yourselves

I don't dwell in the past much . Life has thought me that I'm only a shadow of what I was in my prime. No matter how hard I try.

Funny that you bring up injury, great part of my demise as I have aged.

 

[matter2003]

And if your aunt had balls she'd be your uncle. You can play that game all night.

The Sabres right now are in 2nd place overtaking Toronto and on top of that played last night in a game that went to a shoot-out and this was their 3rd game in 4 nights. You may not be to worried about them but the Bruins should be.

Not to mention the Sabres were playing their 10th and 11th defensemen in this game in Guhle and Hunwick...

I can’t fathom after playing only 33 games that the Bruins are in SERIOUS trouble but it’s not looking good so far but lots of time to turn things around .

 

[matter2003]

a few things:

1) the trade freeze is the 19th, so 1 more game to go for that (we know nothing is happening, though).

2) jack eichel will never have a 4-point game against us with both bergeron and chara dressed.

3) how many times are we gonna get hosed by the refs?

4) credit to ullmark, he was very good.

5) JFK is improving. still would trade him.

6) F the habs. bring it.

Eichel is turning into an unstoppable force...they are torching every team this year

Let’s see him do it going head to head against Bergeron . I bet he becomes invisible.
