GDT: Game # 73 - Blues in Boston @ 6pm CST

[Brian39]

Jack Edwards is the most egregious homer announcer in pro sports. He has built his entire career around portraying the Bruins as angels trying to take the high road in a league full of knuckle dragging goons who can only compete with the perfect Bruins by cheating to win. Every Bruins game viewed in Boston is a constant reminder that every other team is dirty and anything bad Boston does was something they were forced to do even though they didn't want to.

Of course Bruins fans are the way that they are.

It’s the same exact reason why the Avalanche fans are the way they are as well. Absolute two worst broadcast teams in hockey.

 

[shpongle falls]

Looks like Pasta and Lindholm are still out with an injury.

 

[ScratchCatFever]

I won't be there tonight, but I'm there for dinner one night almost every weekend with my dogs.

Tendies are good. Never tried their pizza, actually. Stuffed shroomies are my go to app.

 

[Mike Liut]

The Bruins have always been my favorite Eastern conference team.

 

[Mike Liut]

Why are they salty? We were the bigger, more physical and better team.

Pizza is excellent. If you like OB Clark's pizza you'll love it. I usually get that, a burger or the chicken parm sandwich.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

it actually their second game back, they played in the fall of 2019 before covid hit.

boston fans are just butthurt that their team chokes on home ice in the finals consistently. remember when the hawks scored 2 goals in like the last 90 seconds to win the cup LMAO. rask's only cup comes from tim thomas winning it for him

Oh! That first game was in Boston. Thanks.

That's the best chicken parm I've ever had in a bar food setting. Definitely will have to try the pizza. The Lord Stanley's loaded fries are chalk full of sodium but worth every bit of the shame.

 

[Xerloris]

Assuming Krug is fully healthy I'm interested to see what the defensive pairings will be. I'd like to see Krug back with Faulk and Leddy slide down to the third pair.

Leddy - Parayko
Krug - Faulk
Scandella - Bortuzzo

isn't it on the Bally's alt channel?

it is

 

[Moose and Squirrel]

you answered your own question. they're used to being the 'big bad bruins' and got beat at their own style (historically, anyways)
that and the 'perfect line' got totally shut down

Edwards whole shtick is emblematic of how Boston fans are, regardless of the sport. They’re somehow always persecuted, and the under dog, but simultaneously always the better team no matter what. People up here think the bitterness other fanbases show them is jealously, but in reality it’s because they’re miserable to interact with.

 

[Blueston]

Leddy - Parayko
Krug - Faulk
Scandella - Bortuzzo

Scandella and Parayko have been really good of late. Would keep them together. Also gives Borts someone who can help get puck out.

That would be a balanced 3 pairings.

Although by history of Scandella's career, I wouldn't expect this to continue for long.

you answered your own questions here. sucked for them to be the littler, less physical, and worse team in 2019

I remember when Shaw (maybe Bickell) tied it up and then Bolland scored the game-winner. I've never liked the Bruins, but the Hawks are in a totally different category of satanic hatred.

Next thing you know, American children will start learning about the Boston Genocide.

 

[Bobby Orrtuzzo]

I hope they both play cuz I wanna see Lindholm and I wanna beat the Bruins with their best forward on the ice.

By the way, love the avvy. The Conjuring has been on my playlist lately.

Second the avvy comment. Their second best album and one of the best metal albums of all time.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

Damn it! I ordered my pizza and wings too late. Gonna miss the first 5-7 mns of the game.

I think they chose Jack Edwards because his brash style appeals to that fan base. Would be pretty sweet to beat Boston again just for old time's sake, but it won't be easy. The fact that Pastrnak and Lindholm are out certainly increase our chances of victory.

Come on boys, make Jack Edwards angry tonight!

 

[thedustman]

Tunin in for the B T & T line and the general beatdown, let’s goo blues

 

[BlueKnight]

I'm stuck watching the Bruins broadcast on mute as I can't stand that clown Jack Edwards.

GO BLUES!!!!

 

[i aint Dunn yet]

lets go blues !!!
