Lol, you still think the bruins cry at night about us stealing their colors?

 

[Gurglesons]

.731 win percentage since Sullivan took over at home against the Brooooons.

 

[reino]

I'm very optimistic today. They have best coach in the league, Hextall is incredible GM too. I'm feeling Granny hat trick coming. Naysayers are stupid and evil

 

[wheelz87]

2 points boys. Somehow get it down.
Even 1 would be huge though.

 

[eXile3]

Would be overjoyed to get 2, but happy with 1.

 

[Invalid cuz QoC]

Everyone but 2 players gets a point tonight.

 

[Ugene Magic]

 

[Nakawick]

Everyone but 2 players gets a point tonight.

Swayman and Zboril.

 

[Andy99]

I guess Swayman is expected to start and probably Jarry…we haven’t faced Swayman this year, only Ullmark…it seems like every time we start Jarry after an injury break when he’s had a good game, he ends giving up up a shitload of goals and gets pulled lol…we’ll see

 

[LOGiK]

Without a doubt expecting head on crash into oblivion and it starts here.

 

[Andy99]

Tall ask but if we win today and Isles lose to Tampa tonight we’re back in contention for WC1…

 

[SEALBound]

That Boston roster is just flat-out loaded. They know they are good. They are hungry.

We on the other hand will be out for a nice Saturday skate.

This...is Game 1 of a 8 game playoff series. How they fare today, how they play today, how they respond today will set the stage for the playoffs.

My bet? Bruins punch them square in the mouth within 5 minutes and they fold.

 

[Icarium]

If the Bruins are cunning they will let us win because Florida might actually show up in the playoffs.

 

[AuroraBorealis]

Who are the Bruins resting? They been doing that on rotation lately I think.

 

[Sidgeni Malkby]

We are coming off a solid win against a team that had JUST beat the Bruins, so that’s double good news.

We also have the Panthers breathing down our backs, so the direct motivation is there.

We are playing a team that we are expected to lose to, so that gets rid of the pressure/expectations.

If thinking a win, but regardless I expect an entertaining game, which ultimately is what it’s all about.

Go Pens Go!

Have a bit more faith than that. We'll get out to a 2 goal lead halfway through the game and THEN fold after Boston scores one goal to make it close.

I think we got out to a lead in both previous games against Boston before folding like a cheap suit lol

Wasn't one a ridiculous like 3 or 4 goal lead before they came back and sent it to OT before winning?

 

[Turin]

5-0 Pens I d e c

 

[Zbynek]

Play like it's the playoffs.

 

[Gurglesons]

Play like it's the playoffs.

So exactly what @Sidney the Kidney described?

The Mike Sullivan Playoff Strategy (circa 2019-present):
1-Get out to lead
2-Sit back and try to hold lead
3-Get scored on to see lead shrink
4-Crumble

5-if there is an injury do everything in your power to not give Malkin good line mates.
