[BruinInPhilly]

I'd put Randell in the lineup.

Marchy - Bergy - Stempniak
Louie - Krejci - Pasta
Beleskey - Sponner - Hayes
Randell - Ferraro - Connolly

I'd maybe give Acciari a look for a few games, but I think Randell deserves to be in there.

[The Hockey Tonk Man]

why do a lot of people want Hayes on the 3rd and Connolly on the 4th?

Connolly to me is way more effective and plays better than Hayes. Hayes got like 2/3s of his points this year playing on the 4th line & can't seem to do much else.

 

[Salem13]

Kelly is on the ice.

Pencil him in quick!

I think they'll go with the same. Except defense, I have no idea who plays where. If Pasta can stay hot and healthy, I LOVE our offense... Top-6 is awesome and our 3rd line is killer. Stempniak has done great with a lot worse than Bergy and Marchand. I'm really looking forward to what he can do. Boost to our PK, too.

 

[Mathews28]

FWIW, Daily FaceOff has:

Marchand-Bergeron-Stemp
Loui-Krejci-Pasta
Belesky-Spooner-Hayes
Ferraro-Kemp-Connolly

I'd like to see Connolly on the 3rd, Hayes on the 4th and if Acciari plays and centers the 4th, that's cool.

My gut says if Connolly plays on the 3rd, he scores tonight.

So did Rinaldo, Kemppainen, and Talbot actually go to Providence or where those simply paper transactions.

Eriksson - Krejci - Pastrnak
Connolly/Hayes - Spooner - Beleskey
Connolly/Hayes - Acciari - Randell

Chara - Seidenberg
Krug - McQuaid
Liles - Miller

Randell should be playing. The Bruins get pushed around enough as it is... i can't imagine watching a team in the playoffs as soft up front as most of the lineups posted here. They'd get eaten alive.

Hayes is good at standing in front of the net. Connolly is a good forechecker. Hayes might be totally 1000% useless on a 4th line, where Connolly could forecheck with Accari and Vatrano and cause mayhem. Connolly > Hayes, but Hayes might be better off playing on a line with some offense guys that can do heavy lifting. Not sure. Problem is that Spooner isn't good in his own end and at driving possession and Hayes is a dead weight on that line until they get into the offensive zone. Almost wonder if Hayes would be best playing with Bergy and standing in front of the net while Bergeron and Marchand do their thing.

Marchand Bergeron Hayes
Eriksson Krejci Pasta
Beleksey Spooner Stempniak
Vatrano Accari Connolly

???

 

[slim399]

What I would love to see if Kelly returns down the road

Marchand-Bergeron-Stempniak
Eriksson-Krejci-Vantrano
Beleskey-Spooner-Pastrnak
Hayes-Kelly-Connolly

Chara-Liles
Krug-McQuaid
Morrow-Seidenberg

The realistic line up

Marchand-Bergeron-Stempniak
Eriksson-Krejci-Pastrnak
Beleskey-Spooner-Connolly
Rinaldo-Ferraro-Talbot

Chara-Seidenberg
Liles-McQuaid
Krug-K Miller

 

[bruins51]

i may be wrong, but i think for them to play they would need to be called up first (which hasn't happened). that would also use up their remaining 3/4 call ups.

also seems julien is planning on playing acciari

 

[BamBamCam]

Why is everyone putting Stemp with Bergy??
Is because Pierre said that where he should go?
To me I think you reunite Pasta and Spooner,
then that means Stemp fits with Loui and Krejci.

Connolly has been good with Bergy and Marchy.
The points may not show it but the chemistry is there plus it
is hard for anyone tho play RW on that line because of Marchy's selfishness play.
Marshy wouldn't even pass to Loui when he was on that line, it seems to me all Brad does is look for Bergy.

Thats why I wonder if Hayes if the right guy for that line. "Jimmy, just go stand in front of the net and look for rebounds from Marchand and Bergeron"

Disagree completely. Connolly helps the line because he creates turnovers, wins pucks and maintains possession. Hayes is far inferior in these areas.

Not a bad idea at all. Pasta has been rolling pretty well with Krech lately, but if he falls off, I'd do this.

I hear you, but its the Spooner line that is one of the worst few lines in all of hockey at preventing shots and needs some help.

Rob Peter to pay Paul?
