We have to end this losing streak.
Im ****ing sick of it. At this rate the Habs are gonna over take us.

:laugh: in past seasons, we realistically had no idea what to expect night to night. this team
has been so impressive with its consistency, and expect a pretty strong bounceback tonight.

Logic would dictate that they come out on fire, but NJ has gotten b slapped by Columbus 6-1, so they ought to be hungry for a win too.

Let's see who will step up to fight Marchand. If it's a big guy, I wonder what will happen. I expect Marchand to have to answer the bell, but against someone similarly sized.

Last night was a fluke. I'm sure these guys got their heads screwed on straight and are more than ready to put last night behind them. LET'S GO BRUINS!

i expect it'll be palmieri - he sounded off on that play, he's on the RW, and he's probably in a similar class
when it comes to fighting. although would be hilarious if marchand told him to wait til the b's are up 3-4 goals.

Ahahahah it would be hilarious.

I hope Marchand won't hurt a hand or something like that.

In the past few seasons I have worried that the team wouldn't bounce back, that we would be listening to the coach and players saying they need to do better, that it is a back to back game, that the other team is desparate, etc..,..this season none of that is the case. Will we lose two in a row? I don't think so.

Let's go Bruins!!!! I love this team!!

Devils have lost three in a row and have been terrible on the penalty kill as of late.

Hopefully the Bruins get their PP rolling again, on their way to a W!

Go Bruins!!!!:clap:

I totally forgot they were playing tonight.

Maybe they were just trying to save some in the tank last night and the game got away from them.

Fortunately they have a chance for redemption tonight :)
