BRUINS GDT GAME 82 7:08 PM - WIN we play Tampa - LOSE we play Toronto (assuming Florida beats Toronto) - NESN, NESN 4K, ESPN+, 98.5 WBZ-FM

[Clint Eastwood]

Season ending home games against the Sens give me PTSD from 2016. Oh how that killed me inside. At least we got McAvoy in the draft because of it.

Who do the Bruins match up against better? Probably the Leafs, but I don't want to give them the chance to have their Kuznetsov moment.

At the same time, my brother is a Tampa fan and I think win or lose, it would make for the most fun of times watching hockey . . . . but if we lose I'll never hear the f***ing end of it.

 

[Boston Bruno]

Is there bonus money for winning the division?

 

[smithformeragent]

Let me ask this.

If you can't win the Cup, does winning the division mean anything to ownership in the Centennial Season?

 

[Bruinfanatic]

Fla and Tampa would love to only travel across the state. I'm sure Leafs would like to travel to Boston.
Please not Toronto. Beat the Sens.

But I think Florida would rather play the Leafs

Playoff games won are what matter = $$$$$$$

I am sitting in the Pittsburgh airport. My daughter is flying to New York for work and me to Boston. Of coarse the flight is delayed

 

[lopey]

I learned a long time ago, don't ask to play a specific team, always bites you in the ass. We play who we play and let the chips fall where they may

I never have been on a plane that was on time the last few years. Air travel is terrible now.

Yeah my thoughts also ,if the Leafs weren’t the Leafs if they played somewhere else ,I would be saying let’s play them ,goaltending and defense is pretty suspect but ,just not sure I want to take that chance.Although if the Bruins don’t start generating more shots ,Toronto’s goaltending really wouldn’t matter.

Panthers just called up 55 year old Mark Fitzpatrick out of retirement for their finale.

He’s been filling in for my men’s league since one of the goalies went down with a hip injury.

For real?

For real?

Absolutely not.

I asked for 3 out of 4 of the matchups we got in 2011

I asked for Habs (duh), Flyers (payback for the 3-0 thing), and Tampa (they were the #5 caps were the #1)

If this bites me like that, I'm ready to get bit!

I would NEVER ask for the Habs.

 

[Patdud]

They'll start everyone. And it'll be a mistake.

The Bruins Literally cannot afford to call up a bunch of Prov players to rest guys.

 

[BruinsJoe]

Better be ready for Tampa, Bruins PP is shitty as hell, no one s able to win something at the dot, Pk is average, D corp pretty meh...Hope for the best, go Bsss!

we both know they can sit Pasta and Charlie if they wanted to...

In 2005, (2006 playoffs) the Pats purposely booted the last game against Miami for seeding if I recall.

They ended up getting spanked by the Broncos in the playoffs anyway.

 

[DarrenBanks56]

i could care less who they face really.
They just have to be playing good hockey.
I just hope marshy and debrusk get going here.
Would also be nice to see pasta get the hatty for 50 (if he plays)

[GahdenRinkRat]

I don’t like the karma of trying to engineer the 1st round opponent Play a solid game tonight, please shoot instead of overpassing and let the standings fall as they will. Too much wishing for the Leafs feels like a set up for first round loss to them, and that would be truly dreadful

I’ll save your seat J/k see you later!

 

[bob77]

Just saw Forbort is reporting to Providence

 

[TD Charlie]

They didn't care much last night. I expect more of the same tonight. No injuries.

 

[UConn126]

The only reason I want Toronto is because I really don't want Tampa Bay.

I'd like to see another chapter of the rivalry. Bos-Tor is one of the premier modern rivalries with our extensive playoff history the last 10+ years.

 

[Bruinswillwin77]

Okay let's see. Career AHL-er.

 

[Bruinswillwin77]

It's funny the way the schedule ended up aligning the way it did.
Toronto basically holds some control as well. (Unless the Bruins gets 2 points)
