GDT: Game #39: Bruins vs Coyotes - 7:00pm (AZ) - Scripps - Counting All My Fingers Edition

[MayDayMayDay]

Good win. Identity win. It was a game where we didn't play our A game against a tired team, BUT...

We were opportunistic.

We stayed focused and didn't cave to pressure.

We got some timely goaltending.

We got a little bit of luck.

We beat (and thoroughly outworked) a good team.

We'll take it. On to the next.

Nash said a win would put the Yotes back in a wildcard spot.

Nope. Thanks for trying Tyson.

He's an ID10T

 

[Howling Overseas]

That was a hell of a sequence by the Yotes, Kerfoot slows it down gets the offense out there on shift change, boom.

Also, Keller blocked Pasternak from interfering with Scmaltz, which was a smart play.
This win helps.

I'm not ready to give up on Dumba because he's done some great things lately, in addition to the horrendous things.

Moser Durzi
Valimaki Kesselring
Stecher Dumba

I like those 6. If one of them gets hurt then try Soderstom or Szuber.

It took all of two games for Guenther to match Zucker’s production from his past 13 games.

Bear post game hints there's going to be some conversations on Guenther.

I'll have the clips up when they're available.

Cooley and Guenther looked great. Please no more Dumba in OT. Schmaltz is as streaky as they come.

Bear just said postgame Dumba has improved a lot in the last month.

He had. Until tonight. Woof.

 

[SR]

Just got back. Hell of a game. I think we outplayed em and had more chances. Crouse is such a damn force live, what a guy.

Some bruins fans made their way down for overtime, had to give em a gtfo treatment after the schmaltz goal. Hell of a win.

 

[Vinny Boombatz]

Ullmark absolutely shredded his groin…B’s going to be goalie hunting

Yeah, doesn't look good when you can't move either leg...he's going to be out a while.

I agree with Everything except for thoroughly out worked a good team

I thought the Bruins won most of the puck battles which was frustrating as there should be no excuse for that

Dumba is a game breaker.. unfortunately usually it’s for the wrong team

I liked him against Colorado and the very first game in Australia

We have a few players on the team that are momentum killers, you almost wonder if they put money on the other team

I think this team will be really good when we get Hayton back if Guenther stays up. I hope he does. I like LOB but I don't think we need him. I don't honestly think he's really done anything wrong but the refs just always side against him so he's a liability.

Pick one of Dermott and Dumba and fire them into the sun. Preferably Dumba to be honest. Make Dermott the 7th D.

We're not going to be consistent winners with either of Dermott or Dumba on the ice. We desperately need a D overhaul.

 

[Dirty Old Man]

Durzi hasnt been good

He had a brutal first 5 minutes. 3x couldn't keep the zone plus an icing.

We caught a team on a back to back, that helped but I thought we played well overall. Still, too many mistakes, our goalie bailed us out a few times. Gunts might stick now, he seems ok on D and without the puck to me, obviously he has some points in just a few games. Lets see how the next 3-5 games go for him.

Dumba has lost a step but I think Bear needs to limit his use like in OT when foot speed is more important. I think he is more of a third pairing D now but we are asking him to take second and first pair minutes sometimes. Dermit is a border line NHL D.

I think this is a good take. Limit Dumba's minutes, and definitely don't use him in OT. I think he adds value to this group with his physicality, but he needs to understand that he doesn't have the footspeed anymore, so no pinching or offensive raids. Dermott isn't a top 6 D on a competitive NHL team
