Carolina can still catch them. ,,,

Yeah that’s my point.

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

Call me crazy but get lauko butt in here pronto.

Want to see him a lot more these next 20 games.

 

[trenton1]

I just don’t get how you can completely abandon putting pucks on net when Skinner lets in two goals like that.

I usually see the good in Coyle but his bailing on two shots in the slot was pathetic. Luckily for him he wasn't alone on the shit list tonight. Rare bad game for the Bruins.

 

[KillerMillerTime]

Guys a hack. Sounds like he should be calling a monster truck rally.

You talking about Steve Levy?

 

[goldnblack]

They can play waaaay better. We know that.

Played Swayman both times against the Oil this year. Interesting.

 

[Alicat]

Monty's not pleased on his postgame interview.

Says DeBrusk had the wind knocked out of him

 

[The don godfather]

Oilers hung around like ali vs foreman and stung us. Never leave the opponent hanging on the ropes.

 

[Gonzothe7thDman]

I'd say this game was 60% Boston losing it 40% Edmonton winning it.

 

[Bruinswillwin77]

I do hope McDavid is Okay.

 

[IveGotToBeMe]

Not worked up by this but would like to start to see defense pairings settle down a bit. Understand they want to rotate resting guys but it seems like the constantly changing defense pairings have caused some amount of breakdown in the overall structure of the defense/offense. I also understand they want to find where Orlov fits in best.

 

[TP70BruinsCup]

Knowing Monty…..he will use this to get them back on track with much better efforts vs Detroit. They have to be sharp the rest of the way to hit the ground running come the playoffs……which they will be.

There is a valid reason why Linus didn't play

 

[Banded Peak]

You talking about Steve Levy?

Jack Michaels. The Oilers broadcaster. You guys should consider yourselves lucky you got Steve Levy.

 

[missingchicklet]

Swayman needed to be better. Griz and Bergy needed to be better. Hall and Foligno back in the lineup come playoff time would be huge. Every team is bringing their very best every night against the Bs. A rare loss is nothing to worry about. I hope Monty starts resting Marchy and Bergy some. They need it.

Forget Monty no one is more upset than the Captain. Between the two of them the ship will be righted

 

[The don godfather]

Woah my eyes just got hurt watching the blues uniform what in the world is that monstrosity??? I'll get back on topic when I put some visine.

 

[GoBs]

Yup not coyle’s best game
0-9 in Faceoffs not good

 

[BTO]

Meh, well-deserved loss. Shoot the f***ing puck. Lots of examples from tonight that Monty can emphasize.

Were too lackadaisical when up 2-0. Screw Edmonton’s “speed”. No one can hang with Boston when they skate with urgency.

Wasted two points they need for their cushion but just get 4 points from Detroit on the weekend and all will be well. Methinks Boston will be playing with urgency this weekend.

 

[danpantz]

I’m not trying to say that loss is on Swayman.

But.

Ullmark probably wins that game because he’s been unstoppable at home.

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

McDavid being made into a non factor but still losing to the Oilers isn’t something I would have expected.

They got a 2-0 lead in the first and didn’t do nearly enough the rest of the game to create offense. The Oilers suck in their own zone. Play any way you want in the offensive zone. Just occupy it and the chances will come against that team.

 

[khanomcat]

Krejci’s goal called back, when there was more than a 30-second delay between zone entry and goal. Ridiculous. I hate video replays, especially on offside calls. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think Bruins deserved to win. They stopped playing after the first period.

 

[McGarnagle]

Swayman needed to be better. Griz and Bergy needed to be better. Hall and Foligno back in the lineup come playoff time would be huge. Every team is bringing their very best every night against the Bs. A rare loss is nothing to worry about. I hope Monty starts resting Marchy and Bergy some. They need it.

Yep, every middling team like Edmonton acts like it's the Stanley Cup when they play us while we're trying to rest guys headed into the playoffs.

In the future I want more Lauko and Cliffy though.

 

[NeelyDan]

Jack Michaels. The Oilers broadcaster. You guys should consider yourselves lucky you got Steve Levy.

The most annoying voice in the business with his stupid manufactured emotion, I wanted to split his head open like a dry cord of pine

Bruins didn't play well enough to deserve a win, but Linus could have stolen it.

If that's what you mean I'd agree.
