Post-Game Talk: GAME 63 - THE BEAR is dancin' and prancin' in Maple Leaf Square - BRUINS 4 Hogtown 1

[Ladyfan]

When you think about it, the Leafs having a bear mascot really doesn't work when they play the Bruins. He must be so conflicted!

Leaf's lame bear. Blades would kick his ass!

I love Pasta in his interview..." We wanted to put up a full 60 minutes and did 58 1/2.

I made this thread over a month ago. They're load balancing themselves. Very obviously.

Well I kind of get bored with regular season games especially after last season

 

[lopey]

Bruins can play with teams like Toronto Edmonton. Skilled teams. They have trouble against Florida because hard checking physical teams

 

[SwayHeyKid]

Is it okay to say Grzelcyk had a good game?

I'm not sure there's much point to trading him for a 4th round pick... Bruins only chance at success in playoffs is him and McAvoy dominating like a few years ago. Lohrei isn't ready.

Absolutely it is. the team is better when he plays, and it's magnified more when Lindholm is out. Bruins do in fact need to keep him and Mac together in the playoffs IMO.

They played much, much better last night. Of course the bar wasn't any too high to begin with, but still.

Charlie Coyle & Woodstock each got an assist so I'm happy.

glad the boys won, taking a week of watching off, when I find myself getting a bit too emotionally attached during a regular season game, time to take a breather.

Fantastic game. Team looks like they will be more resilient this play-off season. They own Toronto, I hope they play them. Swayman has arrived time to lock him up

Might be better to lose on thursday ? Isnt it a bad omen to go undefeated against them in the regular season only to lose in the playoffs ?

No...Not a good game to lose for lots of reasons.

He played well, but just because he's had a few decent games doesn't mean he shouldn't be moved. He's been largely ass this entire season.

Great 1st period after surviving an initial surge from the Leafs. Really impressed with how they responded to the Tavares goal. Wasn’t sure what to expect since the Bruins were struggling and the Leafs have been hot as of late. And nice to see good games from guys like Grzelcyk, DeBrusk, and Zacha. Swayman was in the zone as well.

I have to say this, though: that was an embarrassing effort by Matthews on the DeBrusk goal. McMann follows up his shot on goal by chasing the puck in the corner and finishing a hit on Shattenkirk. Play goes the other way and Matthews encourages Jake to take his time ripping it upstairs. I get he’s paid to score goals, but that was some novice-level play away from the puck lol

Leafs board is pure comedy gold, I suggest friends, you have a peek if you are in need of a laugh

Highlights: Trade Reilly, Nylander a bum etc..

He has, but he's also been playing quite a bit better of late- maybe a corner has been turned here, and if so, good for the team.

Sure, and I'd like to see him play well in a stretch of games before I put him in the top D pairing for a playoff run.

As much as I would like to laugh at them, the same silly shit happens here too.

Agreed- he need to keep it up for the last 1/4 of the season.

They swept Carolina in 2009 so you may be right

I hear ya . I’m a sucker for punishment though I guess . Zen

The dang toddler actually slept last night so I got maybe 6 hours of sleep.

Means I should be good to go tonight too, despite the late start.
