Clode

 

[ProdigalFan]

Remember when Toronto used to be a gimmee blow out win?

I'm going tonight. I'm thinking of bringing the Clodefish with me for good karma. Hopefully, security won't confiscate him. If I, by some miracle, get picked for a player jersey, I'll give the Clodefish to the player and tell him to keep it in the room for good luck. Maybe then we'd see it on a future episode of "Behind the B". #Superstar

Connolly on Spooner's wing. I like that more but Pastrnak on the 4th line? Smith deserves that spot more than Pastrnak. Looks like Krejci on wing still, I don't know about that either...

Oh sure they couldn't have posted it 10 min ago!

[JRull86]

Why mess with the Lucic Spooner Pasta line? Seriously.

I get you want Connolly to play with offensive guys, but drop Smith off of Bergeron's wing, not Pasta off of Spooners.

 

[BigBadBruin8]

Let's ****ing go.

 

[Mount Kramer Cameras]

We may as well try Connolly there before the playoffs start. Sucks for Pasta though.

Pasta skating with Campbell and Kelly? Way to kill his offense capability.

Will be a minor miracle if he can score when he has to depend on those two stiffs to feed him the puck.

 

[Ladyfan]

Last reg season home game. I hope there will be playoffs.

I guess all of the remaining games are important.

Please play all three periods...even the 2nd. PLEASE WIN !!

HERE WE GO BRUINS...HERE WE GO

edit. Thanks to Sooshii !!!!!

 

[MetM]

Stupid lines.
I hope its the traditional "fake lines" rush Claude likes to do at the end of the season...

Exactly. Ain't like any of this is carved in stone.

Have fun, LF! Shirts off their backs night!

(There will be playoffs)

If this was on the back of a killer performance by Pasta I might be mad, but he had a taste of playoff hockey/hits against the Wings and we could all see he was a little shaky. I'm sure the lines will morph as the game goes on anyway

 

[TP]

I'm scared

 

[Boston BROin]

As much as I don't like Pasta skating with Kelly and GC, I LOVE the line of Lucic, Spooner and Connolly. Plus, we have the easiest matchup of any team we are in a playoff race with. OTT has Washington and Detroit has Minnesota.

 

[RedeyeRocketeer]

I'll reserve my opinion of the lines when I see the one-ice product. For now I'm just glad Soderberg is off the wing.

 

[Ladyfan]

I believe there will be. I need these games after a bad day/ week at work.

Positive energy !!!

Marchy will do well tonight.

I hope that's what it is cause those lines are a unholy mess.

This has the makings of a big night,a Bruins win coupled with a Ottawa loss would all but assure a PO spot. Let's go Bruins, enough of this nail biter ****, let's get this done early.

 

[NeelyDan]

Exactly the kind of game the 14-15 Bruins lose, a win here for me is the REAL indicator of a corner having been turned.
