When it’s 2-0 you gotta try and ice the game. Don’t sit on leads.

Uhh They were pressing with momentum until Grzelcyk tripped over himself or crappy ice and gave them a 4on1 to make it 2-1. . .

Better to have this now than in the playoffs.

As others have said speed gives us fits, but especially when we don’t move our feet. That’s a worry for me come the playoffs. But that also means adjustments and we have an awesome coach that always finds a way. And also: shoot the bloody puck. Krejci, Coyle…..shoot…..the….puck

 

[The don godfather]

Couldn't get the 3rd goal to ice it and costed us. The end.

 

[KrugAvoy]

9 losses on the season. 9. We will be just fine

That's 2 eliminations from the playoffs worth of losses. /s

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

No matter how many goals he scores, I’ll never get used to David Pastrnak standing around in the latter part of his shifts.

Detroit is going to pay for that effort all weekend.

Bertuzzi is going to be amped and I'm sure Hathaway is going to be chomping at the bit.

 

[Gordoff]

I only saw portions of the 3rd period but was really disappointed in the passive B's performance.

 

[McGarnagle]

Only putting two goals up against their AHL goalie and shitty defense is bad.

Bergeron particularly had a rough night. It'll happen I guess, and it really doesn't matter given the standings, but that was frustrating AF.

In fairness it should've gone to OT at 3-3 if they didn't rewind the tape to find that someone went offsides four months ago when Krejci scored

 

[quietbruinfan]

Yeah it’s meh. Lackadaisical play when then were up 2-0. But it’s a wasted 2 points they could’ve added to their cushion they’re going to need when they start resting guys.

Carolina can still catch them. ,,,

 

[NeelyDan]

Ekholm looks fantastic for the oil

 

[goldnblack]

I can't believe how passive they were. Really passive.

Bertuzzi is going to be amped and I'm sure Hathaway is going to be chomping at the bit.

Not sure about Hathaway honestly not seeing much from him at all. Not sure if he is still trying to be good, but that’s not why they got him

 

[TheReal13Linseman]

Our PP needs focus.

 

[The don godfather]

Call me crazy but get lauko butt in here pronto.

Except that Edmonton wasn’t giving them fits. Boston was just too lackadaisical. Not enough urgency until they were down 3-2. No one can hang with them when they’re skating with urgency.

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

the biggest risk at this point is not going into the playoffs at full speed because you’re ending the season with what amounts to 20 meaningless games.

It makes me a little nervous. They’re professionals but also human.

He was most certainly leashed tonight with the Oilers having the top PP.

Ovechkin-esque

He’s about the same level of player as Greer is right now.
