Lucky to get a point. I hate the shootout. Lots of things to fix and work on.
Onto the next.

The only people more unhappy about this result than Bruins fans are Maple Leaf fans.
good point.
power play killed them along with that soft first goal.
they played pretty well actually.

I thought Boston did enough to win this game but the powerplay let them down.Need some finish.
if pasta was himself, we win this game like 6-2.
Bruins in the shootout look as though they played the game and aren't paid extra to do the shootout. Weak, limp 3 attempts.

A tough loss on Marchands 1000th game. I felt the effort was there and also that the better team won tonight. No major concerns but I agree plenty to work on.
Thought the power play looked pretty good at times tonight. Popping one there would have gone a long way.

I thought they played great. Didn’t bury it in the 3rd when they got 3pp chances. Move on to the next one.
I'm never that confident in my own predictions, but here's one I have much trust in:
Pasta will never be captain of the BRUINS.
I predict McAvoy will be the next Captain.

He struggles against talented teams that are good enough to make him irrelevant in the 5 on 5 game.
It doesn't help his game when his center is a third line talent
Thought they outplayed Tampa for the most part, Vasi just shut the door when it mattered. Marchand and Pasta both got the chance to end it in OT and missed. On to the next one.
I will say though I'm really done with Boqvist, Steen, and Richard. For the love of god just get higher upside young guys in the lineup. They can't be worse.

You can take that to the bank. Pasta is no leader he's an entertainer

Am I completely off kilter in thinking that first Bolts goal shouldn’t have counted?
Play was blown dead. Classic “dead in the head” call. You can argue Mac stopped playing as well and if the whistle hadn’t been blown maybe he could’ve kept it out.
Idk I just don’t like it as we’ve seen this play out before where it wasn’t a goal. You don’t like it but that’s the human element of the game.

Much better effort outside of the terrible PP. Pastrnak has lost his mojo since his return from the Allstar game despite his 2 secondary assists. Players like Steen, Richard and Boquist are just not good enough and need to be upgraded. This game was lost on the PP, had several chances to win the game but was totally ineffective and in fact could have easily given up SH goals. At least they put in an effort tonight except for the shootout where it looked like they were in a hurry to end the game with their extremely lame attempts.
The Leafs have nothing to worry about, they will make the playoffs.

We dont want them peaking too early. Lol. Thats all I've got. 1 point is cool I guess.
With the BRUINS exceptional goaltending they will be in a position to win most games. That's been their MO most of this season.
If they just play .500 hockey the rest of the way, they'll wind up with 103 points.

There were definitely flashes of good hockey in that game. Not a good game by Pasta. At the risk of getting hit with Ladyfan’s bat, he needs to get to the gym. Not strong on pucks and too easy to knock off.
They actually did peak early, very early, but I get your point.
Upgrades need to be made to the 4th. They skate hard and try hard with Steen and Richard even taking the body but there's just nothing there.
