Post-Game Talk: GAME 35 - HAPPY NEW YEAR - BRUINS 5 Detroit 3

[crimsonace]

It feels like the B's first win in Detroit since the Olympia, given how LCA has become a bit of a house of horrors in recent years. Coyle's goal was tremendous and the B's played a fantastic third period.

I may be wrong, but I believe the BRUINS led the league in disallowed goals last season.


Thanks. That's the one.

Was that the one where he thought it was a delayed penslty?

It was either that or he thought the BRUINS were down by one and were bringing in a sixth skater.
I really don't remember the specifics, but it was memorable.

Does anybody know the penalty discrepancy between the Bruins and Wings in their 4 games, it's not pretty for Boston. These refs continually fall for Detroit's tactics, makes them look really foolish. For the Bruins to win with everything against them (schedule, road game, refs) is really impressive. There was no passengers for the 3rd consecutive game after the Xmas break.

The Bruins were called for 31 penalties in the four games vs the Red Wings. An average of 17:30 per game.

The Red Wings were called for 19. An average of 11:00 per game.

It will never not be funny to me because of how casual he skates back lol

I don't want to say I told you so, but I did!

The video that was kindly provided does state that Rask thought the BRUINS were down by one and were bringing in a sixth skater. Actually, the game was tied.

Pasta had 2 assists, both primary 's on the first goal of the game, and the last goal of the game. Lol

thats because hes a stud. it wasnt his best game and we still won. thats what i meant

When the BRUINS win W/O Pasta playing his best, well, that's a good thing. Also, it doesn't hurt to have J-SWAY in goal.
Time to give J-SWAY more starts. Ullmark has been good, but J-SWAY has been better.

Well, the Patriots lost but the Bruins and Celtics won. Like the song says; two out of three ain’t bad.

 

[NeelyOrr]

The curse continues. In the 2nd period Montreal was leading Tampa 2-0. Now in the middle of the 3rd period it's Tampa leading 3-2.

Having a lead of 2-0. It never seems to hold up. One of our posters mentioned that Don Cherry once said 2-0 is the worst lead a hockey team can have.

Oh lol. Ya the famous 2 goal lead. I didn't put that together at first.

Not necessarily a two goal lead, but a 2-0 lead.

At least the Bruins didnt succumb to that tonight.

Off topic, but my orchids are finally growing back.

 

[NeelyOrr]

It appears Tampa has now joined the beasts of the East. Getting thru the Eastern Conference PO's is going to be Herculean.

Orchids are tough. We’ve had orchids forever, and we’re only now getting one to grow new flowers.

Congrats.

At least they aren't cursed.

They did give up the 2-0 lead with the help of a terrible decision.

 

[Bruinswillwin77]

9 points up on the Leafs feels a bit better than the 2 point lead or whatever it was a few days ago.
