True but they will be better than what we saw tonight. I thought the Bruins might be fine without Kase and Ritchie but think the Bruins need them in the lineup or at least let’s see what they got .

I think what Cassidy wanted out of this game and what Tortorella wanted were two different things. Bruins were in warm-up mode, while the Jackets wanted to get into the playoff mindset as quick as possible.
I’m fine with it.
I’m fine with it.
So I'm a little confused.....got the Columbus broadcast, they kept saying Bruins are the top seed in the east since they were far enough ahead that no one can catch them in the seeding round......I though that was the point of playing, to see where the top teams will be seeded.....

It is. I listened to that broadcast too and they made many mistakes.
Did you catch that Chris Walker is a Bruins player ?
Torts is my favorite NHL coach outside of the B's organization by far, I honestly don't know if it is because I actually like his coaching style or if I just love the comic relief....either way it is fine by me.

Studnicka looks very good as he was the bright spot as well as Halak.

Also the guys on the Bs fighting for spots all looked good tonight. I also saw more from Studnicka in that game with Krejci than I have with any winger he’s had since Iggy.
It’s going to be tough for Kase or Ritchie to get back in the lineup.

It really says something about Pasta's natural goal scoring ability when he hasn't played with the team since the season shut down and he pulls that fake pump shot 5 hole goal out of his cap on the fly. Love that kid.

Well, Bergeron did say that he and Marchand has some catching up to do, to catch up with Pasta
I just want to compliment the players who stood out in a good way rather than those who were smelly. Studs, DeBrusk, Jaro Halak and maybe a couple others (couldn't see the game too well, sat in my kitchen). Everyone else will come back to form. I just hope that Marchy, DeBrusk are okay. Studnicka looking ok (after the collision with Jake) during the question and answer segment .
From here on out I'm watching on a bigger screen!

They are called exhibition games for a reason. Let's watch the Bruins improve. 173

My only issue is this core has a history of not showing up effort wise in big games. Zero effort tonight. Hopefully the next 3 games make them start giving a shit.
Like the two elimination games they won last year?

Studnicka looked great and deserves a longer look on the 2nd line. Very slick passer. I assume the Brad Marchand Dangle Show will now be put away for the rest of the tournament. I get that it is an exhibition game, but the team has to get up to speed rapidly and I was hoping for a bit more dedication to being responsible with the puck.
Watching Studnicka reminded me of when McAvoy jumped right into the playoffs. Both show that confidence and character.

After tonight's game I'm a little less sure he was kidding
