Watched Rangers/Penguins last night.
Pittsburgh didn't look good and Jarry in particular didn't look good. Of course, I say this now but watch them shut the Bruins out tomorrow night....

The goalies in our division straight up STANK. Rask is above and beyond the best. Halak might even be 3rd or 4th best. Our offense against these B tier goalies will be excellent all year when we get rolling.

I'll be interested to see how these two games go. Jarry has been hot garbage to start the season so get shots on him early and often. He also has struggled with the HD chances so live in the dirty area.

It seems to me like the B's don't usually have a tough time with the Pens. We will see.

The Bruins can't beat these clowns by enough. After the Canadiens the Ducks and Penguins have always been the teams I hated the most. At least I respect what the Canadiens used to be, I can't say that about the Penguins.
Beat them 0n the scoreboard, the alley and anywhere else.

You know its funny I felt the same way. Oddly enough over the last 3 years we're 3-5-1 vs PIT with a -5 goal differential.
Depends on who you want to believe. There are some 'reporters' that say as early as Saturday.
While Cassidy said he wants him with at least worth of full contact practice with no setbacks .
Pastrnak could return to Bruins sooner than expected after hip surgery

Apparently and I never realized it until now. Good thing there isn't an Alabama Geese in the league.
Roll 4 Lines
Pastafarian!
About 11 minutes, or 8 minutes if you like al dente!

As Bruce said in the interview, Pasta is traveling with the team but not sure if he is jumping in the lineup tomorrow.
Interesting to see that they had him on Krejcis line at practice and had JDB still on the top line.
Has Bruce finally seen enough of Krejci/JDB together?
Edit: Wally had a further blip from Cassidy saying he plans to reunite him on the top line. So scratch that lol.

Ever since our playoff matchups this past decade I have hated the guts out of the Penguins. They'll never be as hated as the Leafs and Habs for me, but they're up there.
They used to have a bunch of sneaky dirty players who love to hack.
As a Bruins fan I just hope he's 100% when he comes back....as a fantasy hockey manager I need him in the lineup yesterday.
Pastrnak Practices in Full, Nearing Return to Bruins Lineup
Pastrnak rotated with Jack Studnicka during line rushes on Monday, skating alongside David Krejci and Nick Ritchie, though Cassidy succinctly and matter-of-factly said following the skate that Pastrnak will be back with Brad Marchand and Patrice Bergeron when he returns to game action.

Bergeron, Grzelcyk Stay Off
- Patrice Bergeron and Matt Grzelcyk did not practice on Monday, though Cassidy seemed optimistic about their chances to play on Tuesday night against the Pittsburgh Penguins. Bergeron tumbled awkwardly into the post during Saturday's win over the Flyers and was given a maintenance day. "Expect him to play tomorrow," said Cassidy.
- Grzelcyk was banged up in back-to-back games last week and did not play on Saturday, but Cassidy said that the blue liner is feeling better and "has a chance" to play against the Penguins on Tuesday. "We'll see how is in the morning skate," said Cassidy.
- Ondrej Kase remains out with an upper-body injury.
I feel almost exactly the same way except for the part about the Ducks(?).
Pittsburgh has been gifted numerous unlikable stars and rewarded for tanking. Also, I have no issue with tough play, even if it results in injury, but I’ve never seen a bigger collection of headhunters in my time as a fan as that bunch. I’d even take the Flyers over the Penguins.
In terms of playoff misery, nobody will ever hold a candle to the Canadiens. But as you said, I can grudgingly respect their history and success. The Penguins are an a-hole organization, and the only Penguins I ever respected at all were Lemieux and Jagr. The rest of them can eff off.
Especially that little punk Crosby.

Lemieux was & is a whiny little shit. Otherwise your post is spot on.
