Meh, guy's been waiting all season to get on the team. He's a cherry pickerYou can't seriously be comparing the Bruins with those arrogant Nucks who were practicing raising the Stanley Cup......I mean, you can be proud of the record without being arrogant, right? Of course they are celebrating it, why wouldn't they?
If that what you got out of it the Bruins are in major troubleWas it a great effort from Chicago or was it a great non effort from Boston...? Because what I saw last night was a AHL team losing to a AHL Team
Yes sir. 36 - 20 hits, tells the story.Chemistry is off and two guys are hurt……..they need to get back to basics and start hitting.
Yes I did. I see a team who doesn't want to engage in Physical Play. I see a team who can't Forecheck when it needs to. I see a team who is turning over the puck every chance they have. I see a team Defense right now that have no clue how to help either one of their goalies that are in net. This team is tired and struggling with every aspect of their game right now. Defense.....Offense.....Special Teams.....And now its the Goaltending. Resting certain players will help to some degree....But it won't make bad habits disappear. Heck , I would rather see players called up and want to win...not coast along while wating for the Storm to come. They have to realize that another season is coming soon ( Playoffs ) Which is a whole different Enchilada...lol Looks like Mexican tonight.If that what you got out of it the Bruins are in major trouble
The biggest warning sign is when they were celebrating 100 regular season points. Is this the Canucks or the Bruins ?

OK, then, as arrogant as Bieksa making fun of the Bruins jacket which is on video and saying they didn't need peewee type rewards? I'll take Chara's word over Bieksa's.Never happened.
The scary thing was when the Bruins turned up the intensity, so did the Hawks and it didn't go well.
The other slightly scary thing is Sway and Ullmark have saved the bacon repeatedly all season. Lots of odd man rushes against that get totally forgotten because the saves are made.
If our goalies have an .880-.904 save percentage the Bruins better score 4+.
Defensemen should NEVER pinch with Pasta on the ice.
Our goalies have hidden a lot of warts defensively.
At least you'll be well rested..lol
Isn’t that normal when one guy has 13 oz face offs and one guy has 2?
Regardless that 3rd pair is a horror show. Need to go orlov Clifton in the playoffs
Lmaoo...ahh come on B! Stay up for 1 period at leastYes especially since I won't be up for the Winnepeg game lol

I agree. I can’t stand Forbort. He should be punted into the sunBeing on the ice for 3 goals against at 5v5 is never normal. having 34% xG is not normal. being outshot 6-14 when you're on the ice is not normal. Regarding the Dzone faceoffs. Forbort and Gryz both had 4 dzone faceoffs. In terms of shift starts, Gryz and Forbort both started 2 in the dzone. The disparity in ozone faceoffs is mostly because the Bruins always had the puck when he was on the ice (29-11 SA for/against).
We need to get past this myth that Forbort gets buried by deployment. For the year he starts 1 more shift in the Dzone than Gryz per 60 minutes. He's just so bad that they have a ton of faceoffs in the dzone during his shift because they never have the puck. Forbort played most of his time against Entwistle line and the Khaira line, and gave up 3 ES goals. Gryz played most of his time against the Kurashev line and the Dickinson line. They are bad, for sure, but he also dominated his matchup, as expected.
We need to get off this idea that Forbort's poor play can be explained away by his deployment. The proof is just one pair up from him. Carlo has SIGNIFICANTLY harder deployment and gets way better results. The player is just bad.
In order to demyth the idea, wouldn't it be best if Monty paired Forbort and Grzelyck together?Being on the ice for 3 goals against at 5v5 is never normal. having 34% xG is not normal. being outshot 6-14 when you're on the ice is not normal.

I agree constantly messing with back end hurts rhythm.Thanks for this. I feel better hearing this. I sense a team meeting in the works to get everyone back on the same page and refocused
Jaffe and Razor on the Morning Bru podcast think their rhythm is a bit off and that the D rotation is a part of it.

I’m talking about the ozone face offs. Gryz had 13 and Forbort 2. Wouldn’t that make things like xgf way better? Plus who your forwards are? Forbort was on the ice for with the 2nd line for what 2 minutes? Gryz over 10 minutes with the top 6. In all situations Gryz plays with far superior players, including defensive partner no?
