BRUINS GDT GAME 54 - BRUINS play Doc Emrick Bingo in Manhattan - Part II

[CharasLazyWrister]

Absolutely a joke by Bruce to not put in Bergeron with 4 chances to end the game in the shootout

As if Bergeron is some sort of shoe-in for a shootout goal...

Sorry, but the shootout choice complaining is the most tired and pointless thing. It’s such a crapshoot no matter what.

have a look at how many points this team has given away to non playoff teams this year, then add one from tonight, it`s hardly an over reaction

It is a over reaction, what the hell do people here want, a win every night, take a look at the league and see how close teams are whether they are in a playoff spot or not. This team has some holes that people constantly bitch about, and the those same people whine and cry when they lose in a shootout on the backside of a back to back, plus having to travel, unreal.

Some people need to take a step back and take a few breaths.

 

[bobbyorr04]

I can't remember the last time the B's won in OT or shootout...

 

[Budddy]

He's a well-known problem. Tampa had to get rid of him

Looks like a total punk...a nothing player

 

[Mick Riddleton]

Bergy would have went 5 hole

 

[mikelvl]

What an absolute joke to lose that game! I haven’t been this furious in a long time. Pissing away points to a non playoff team!!!!!

 

[Boston Bandit]

I posted this earlier, but its a real concern. Whenever they get the smallest lead, they go into a defensive shell. Just not how you play winning hockey in the league now. This over-relying on the 4th line worries the hell out of me

That tweet is interesting. Thanks for posting!

All those OTL’s are tough to look at, but it’s what they deserve. They are bad at both OT and shootouts.

The “get mad at the coach because he didn’t use _____ in the shootout” thing is so ****ing stupid. Every ****ing time. Any choice he makes...”really?!?!?? _____ before ____?”

Bruce has had a pretty questionable last month or two.

Points are at a premium as always and you send Cehlarik out there before anybody else

 

[BBB24]

Up 3-1 with 10 mins left and taking 1 point away is pissing away points. Doesn't matter if it's a B2B.

Disagree totally, they played a good game tonight against a rested team while having to travel after their game last night, add to it third game in four nights.

 

[Bruinator]

The Bruins just don’t have the depth to go deep in the playoffs. I don’t understand those saying the Bruins need to be giving up picks and prospects. They need to be focusing on getting rid of the dead weight on their roster.

There are only two teams in the Eastern Conference with more points than the Bruins and one of them is only three points ahead of them. Basically what you are saying is no one other than Tampa Bay has any chance of winning the Cup this year from the East.

I am with you losing confidence in this guy

Count me in that group too. I want to know why Bergeron was bypassed in OT.

Is it better to accept losing in... this fashion and make excuses?

 

[veganbruin]

Just unacceptable. 2 goal lead in the third against an inferior team. That game should be over. I’m beginning to think they weren’t an inferior team and this Bruins team not only over performed last year but have overperformed this year as well. Trade them all and sell the team to China.

I am with you losing confidence in this guy

Give him a decent second line and third line then we should judge him. Donny has given no scoring punch to help . It's amazing what Cassidy has done with so little . We are battling for 2nd spot in our division. That's impressive.

 

[Pay Carl]

It's been said before, he's in over his head

Calm down

Hilarious how everyone complains how the team is all 4th liners, yet now saying Cassidy is awful

You’re not an awful coach if you can get a team of 4th liners in a playoff spot

Pick one

Bergy is a big moment type player, you've got 4 shots with the game on your stick, and you don't go with him for 1? I'll check but I think he has some pretty solid shootout numbers too, better than Pasta oddly enough.

Seems like statistically the most probable chance at winning the game in that specific scenario.

Bergeron has been red-hot. He has three goals in his last two games. He is one of the best offensive players on this team. In what way is it stupid to question why he was not one of the top seven shootout participants?

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

I guess.

I felt like I was being waterboarded nightly for the last couple years with Claude so I’m willing to give Bruce some more time.

Has anyone looked at his record as HC with this team? After coming on when the team was headed into the toilet?

He certainly has his way of doing things that doesn’t always seem to make sense, but I’ve got news for you: so does every other coach.

If DK had wingers he would have come up big there

I love Krejci but that’s gold right there
