Pastrnak getting a lot of criticism here tonight, me included, but he is an unbelievable offensive talent, this team would be in serious serious trouble without him. I only ask that Montgomery not play him when the Bruins are clinging to a 1 goal lead in the last minute or so of the game.
Post-Game Talk: GAME 61 - A much needed regulation win - BRUINS 5 VGK 4
- Thread starter Fenway
- Start date
That's bullshit, no player should be exempt for not giving a shit about trying to hold a lead. He belongs on the bench when the game is on the line.
A good coach would be doing it. Would he be out there killing a penalty ? NOPE
In 143 games regular season games. Not too shabby.
I'd prefer the last 2 minutes.

He also sucks passing and has no hockey sense
Sweeney could have got Sam Bennett and the big guy Zadarov who can fight for him
Team soft
I hate this regime
And there is nothing wrong with criticizing the decision to put him on the ice in these situations Who's running the team?
He is all world offensively but he blows otherwise
Nice preview of what Lohrei could develop into if they're patient with him. Under 20% ozone starts for him today, matched up against mostly the Kinghts top 6 while playing shut down minutes next to Carlo. Despite that he still led bruins defenseman in xG%, and had the game winner on the PP. Best all around game as a pro from him IMO.
On the other end of that, Marchand has been bad since coming back from the all star break. 6 points in 12 games since then, only 2 of those at 5v5. Not sure what caused it cause it seemed like he had found his game and was playing break heading into the break, but he needs to figure it out.

Finally can post some blurry pics of the happy Win line and the goalie hug. Lauko in danger of being the lunch meat in the goalie sandwich

I had doritos after the 1st and reached for the pepto after the 2nd and drank it in the 3rd.

I’d never have him out there in that situation.
TBH, I don’t want Zacha out there either the way he’s played in those situations this season.
(I know, faceoffs….but he’s not exactly Bergeron in that regard either)
Coyle, Marchand, Frederic, Geekie, JDB, Heinen

I especially liked the part where they didn't go to stinking bloody overtime

Ovie in his prime was 10 times more physical than Pasta. I like Pasta, would like to see him more committed to a better overall game but 50 goal scorers are pretty rare and I am glad the Bruins have one. No Pasta and Detroit has a lottery pick with Bostons first round pick this year.
I'm keeping Lohrei . If a prospect needs to move out it has to be Lysell

Lohrei is ready for point on PP 1
He’s going to be so good I believe he can get 5 years in before we really start to turn on him

It was like watching two different teams. First period was fabulous, lots of offense, lots of hitting. Second period was awful, no hitting and same problems as usual getting it deep, getting it out of our zone, and defending net front. Third period was a hybrid. I thought Gryz’s penalty late in the third would kill us. Glad they hung on for the win.

Such a Jekyll and Hyde team
First period they looked like world- beaters
Second - they couldn't make a pass or win a pick battle.
Third- an uneven effort where they ( somehow) hung on to win
16 shoots, smooth puck movement and focus in the first period ...16 shoots the rest of the game. Geekie played as good a game as I have ever seen him play: off- setting Marchand who struggled with the puck all game. Neither Grizz nor JDB made much of a case for why the Bs should keep them around
Take the W and run

totally disagree.
Did JDB play tonight? I was at the game and did not see him
