[TP]

Dropping this here in addition to the injury thread, just because.

Boston Bruins ‏@NHLBruins Marchand joins B's out on the ice. First time full team has skated together in a long time. 15 F, 9 D, 2 goalies ^CS pic.twitter.com/QsOniVPi5K

All starting to come together at the right time.

I want Lucic to sit.He has been the worst Bruin out there for a long time.Either hurt or not interested.

Looch does care.

I doubt he will sit.

I hope he has a great game so his confidence is restored.

 

[patty59]

Ference is the scratch tonight.

 

[Confound]

The lineup is so many levels of win.. I would go out there and say its better than '11.

Plus, if people are getting their panties in a bunch about what looks like a Kelly demotion... that line of Kelly, Campbell, and Paille would likely get more ice time than the Horton line.

Plus, it saves Seguin, Bergeron, and Marchand from top checking roles.

I think it's better than in 2011 too MW.

Not only is it deeper, but if everyone is healthy that lineup is easily one of the most deepest teams in the NHL. The key for me is all on Rask this year going into the playoffs. If he can get going and bring the consistency that he is capable of bringing, it will be tough for teams to beat the Bruins with their depth this year.

If we see Chara being dominant again and Rask playing to the elite level he is capable of playing, I think the B's have without a doubt the best chance than any other team to bring the cup back. That third line is pretty damn good, could be a second line on some teams, same could be same for that fourth line, that could also be considered a third line for most teams.

This team has it all, as long as they wake up and play to the capability that they are able to play at, we're gonna be in for a long ride. So many variables though.

How will Lucic play, will he return to the Looch we saw 3-4 years ago in the playoffs or continue to slump? Marchand also needs to step it up in the playoffs this year, I think that whole line will step it up though as long as Bergeron is healthy.

How big of an impact will Soderberg have this year?

Will Chara and the D shore up the breakdowns in their own zone/ neutral zone turnovers? This has been an ongoing problem for us this whole year, the D looks dumbfounded and it ends up biting us in the ass most of the time. We have to play our solid and consistent D against teams like Pittsburgh and Montreal for us to have the best chance this year.

Going back to what I said earlier, Rask is the key this year. He has the capability of playing at an elite level, we have all seen it through the years. Now, can he step it up and be a difference maker in more than 1 playoff series this year? Who knows..?

 

[Bruinator]

Looks like Marchand's out, Bergeron back I between 17 and 19. Campbell on left with Krejci and Jagr. Horton down to line three.

I like it

Krejci with Jagre?? Where did Claude ever come up with that crazy combination??

 

[Ladyfan]

Tonight is the breakout game we have been waiting for. They play a full 60

I would love to see that. Better chance of it with Bergy in the game.

I KNOW the B's can play better than what we have seen of late.

 

[Confound]

Ference is the scratch tonight.

Soooo, I'm assuming the D will look like this tonight.

Chara-Boychuk
Seidenberg-Hamilton
Bart-McQuiad

Ference needs a break anyway, the guy has been bad all year for the most part. Although, he has been better as of late.

 

[Oates2Neely]

I'd like to see Redden get in a few games, while resting the starters

 

[Morris Wanchuk]

Ference is the scratch tonight.

I am really beginning to see the writing on the wall for Ferrence, Peverley, and perhaps Thornton as well.

Patrice Bergeron says he's ready to go. There'll be last discussions w/drs before he plays, but he might be in lineup vs Ottawa

 

[Confound]

Marchand and Soderberg will hopefully be ready for Pittsburgh.

 

[Lost Horizons]

I'd like to see Redden get in a few games, while resting the starters

The b's are carrying 9 d so everyone on the d corps will be getting a break these next two weeks. The last two games were DH nights off. Ference is off tonight and it wouldn't surprise me to see them give him Weds off as well. If i had to guess they'll probably rest Bartowski vs pitt and play Redden. Chara will probably get the last game or two off as usual like he's gotten off every year.

[Kelly23]

Maybe going to Buffalo game seems like Bergy is back today but if not for sure wednesday and the Yeti is comming tmm I hope I can see the full line-up

 

[DoubleAAAA]

I want Lucic to sit.He has been the worst Bruin out there for a long time.Either hurt or not interested.

I still say Horton has been way worse than Looch, despite the production. At least Lucic has occassionally looked engaged.

Wishing for a Kassian-Lucic tilt tonight

Wishing for a Kassian-Lucic tilt tonight

That would be horrible for us...McQuaid or Thornton please.

He is back in the lineup tonight. Latendresse will be sitting apparently. Here's a link if you want proof.

Here's hoping for a good game tonight boys!

Disagree. Looch needs to get his ass in gear. Maybe a fight will do it.

 

[Rubber Biscuit]

Disagree. Looch needs to get his ass in gear. Maybe a fight will do it.

Agreed.

I don't really care about trade offs, though I know the team does.

 

[ksp1957]

I hope the Bruins bring it tonight. I watched the Canes game and those were 2+ hours I want to have back.

 

[Buckets and Gloves]

The Yeti Cometh?? or we have to wait a bit longer??...

Kassian in, Latin Dress out? Huge plus for the Bruins.

I don't know if Erik Gryba fights, but I'd love to see Lucic drop 'em against Gryba.
