Sure, but they've also have lost 3 in a row and Only won 2 of their last 8 and 1 of their last 6, not good.

Ha!. This over and over again.
That draft is going to haunt Sweeney the same way trading Seguin and Hall got Chiarelli.

I know it’s hockey and I know “anything can happen” in the playoffs, but it feels like Tampa is the immovable object standing in their way no matter what they do.
Good post , I didn't realize that. Still doesn't negate the the fact that this team is so arrogant that they think they are the Bolts! They continue to make bad passes, bad pinches, and bad decisions from the Coach on down. They refuse to learn from mistakes and the coach does not hold anyone accountable except rookies and Moore. GM needs to bring in someone with some give a crap and willing to actually hit someone.

I mean... Cassidy has tried to give Pasta to Krejci but it just doesn't seem to work and then we end up with 4 lines that can't score.
Or at least that's what has happened the last few games he's tried it.

Limping along. Bruce Cassidy is a offensive coach. He doesn’t seem to be focused on what matters. Deflecting.
Yes, the D getting pucks through is a factor. But it’s down there on the list.
We’ve seen Cassidy do this before...at the beginning of last year...play focused D...limp by. It was bad.
It’s important to fill basic needs...now...but equally important is Cassidy to wake up and shove all-in to get the offense going.
This focused D statement, either serves some strange purpose or is delusional.
“It’s the offense, stupid.”
You should be railing on pulling out the stops, not putting more on.

shhhhh we're are not allowed to revisit dumb things from the past. Only look forward not back. With that said we should all immediately get off this thread now. Can't look back at stuff.

tampa looks pretty damn awesome... no one beats them. still possible they self destruct, but we could make 15 trades and not be the favorite against them
but that said... is that a reason to roll over and play dead? when we won our cup were we the heavy favorites? I remember other years we were the heavy favorites. the heavy favorite doesn't always win.
an 8 seed LA team won a cup... who was betting on them? vegas went to the finals last year... who was betting on them? Nashville was all but handed the cup last year.
Washington went down 0-2 to Columbus in first round last year and people were calling Ovechkin the biggest choker in modern nhl history
in 2011 as game 7 played out in first round our gdt was screaming with calls to fire Julien and maybe charelli too.
ive been around long enough to say... playoffs are often a crap shoot. I predict a winner every year and I get it right around 20% of the time
it seems based on las vegas making money from gambling... not many people are more accurate than I am.
id bet against boston beating tampa this year... but serve me montreal/and or Toronto and im giving odds we move into the next round.
let montreal finish 3rd... Toronto fall to the wild card...
we knock off montreal round 1
Toronto round 2 {they shock tampa in a shootout when the goalie gets hurts
and then who in round 3? Pittsburgh? we own their head space too
is this impossible... what I just said? if we get the right mix of teams... can we go to the finals?
if Calgary comes out of west they have no experience... big game nerves might get to them... their Cinderella goalie might falter...
I wouldn't bet on this happening... but I say its possible.
lets make the trade we need and try to get our boys focused. maybe deal one of the dmen because I think sitting one is effecting the team moral/chemistry. 7 nhl quality dmen of this pedigree is one too many

I still say we put patrice on second line and put David on first line. More balance . Harder for other team to defend. We will roll 2 scoring dangerous lines. Patrice can play with Jake easily. Chara needs to go back with Carlo to make the twin towers super shut down tandem. It will work guys.

Not sure why Debrusk continues to get the free ride but I agree. Heinen at that point in the game was very questionable.

ANger at watching the Bruins isn’t healthy or worth it anymore.
I’ll tune in when there’s a new top six winger in Boston.
Otherwise fans are basically defining insanity.
Cheers all and someone please post ‘fix the HOLE’ for me in PGTs if you can!

In the second period he had Kuraly instead of Cehlarik with Krejci and DeBrusk to close the period. I guess Cassidy thought Heinen could be the difference maker in this game. And he proved himself right. Heinen was the difference maker. Just how not to win the game in regulation.

Does dealing next year’s first for Nash 2.0 put Boston over the top?
Does it improve their odds? Do they go from a 30% chance against TB to 35? 40?
Just spitballing.
Does Sweeney “owe it” to the guys in the locker room to make that deal?
Cassidy complaining he has a one line team when he refuses to break up the big 3 is just hilarious.
