Post-Game Talk: RR #2 - #$@&%*!#$@&%*! BUT THE BEAR SHOWED LIFE - TB 3 BRUINS 2 F

[BTO]

Making me root for Montreal

I'm rooting for Claude, not the scabs.

 

[rocketdan9]

Grz too much dipsy doo today. Those unexpected passes at the slot amount to nothing. Better just to shoot it at the net

 

[22Brad Park]

Don't think so - Philly v Wash is still to happen and either Philly will get 2 points (and so have 4) or Wash will (and so will have 3). At least. I guess if Bos beats Wash and Philly also beats Wash we can get 3rd. I wouldn't count on it tho. We'll likely get pitt.

Who cares where they finish? Last line change is all your getting.Its nice but not be all to end all.

They looked great from the half point on. I’m not panicking.

Top line needs to figure it out 5on5. PP had some really good looks, Pasta getting the one-timer going again.

Kuhlman is not a top 9 player, needs to be moved. Hope Kase is close.

Debrusk was invisible, and can’t blame it on him being on the off wing. Needs to be better.

Rask looked good, kept us in the game numerous times.

Overall it was an improvement from Sunday.

Wow , DeBrusk! I actually forgot all about him . If you would have told me he was out of the lineup today I wouldn’t bat an eye . Invisible

 

[Mione134]

Marchand looked terrible again.

 

[prizminferno]

rooting heavily for Pitt, we want them

They do have a shot. They havent played a playoff game yet.

You clearly know what I’m talking about. Didn’t realize I had to be so explicit.

The poster is blaming the league for us not having the #1 seed anymore. I’m saying they still had a shot to have that #1 seed but instead mailed in their games so far which eliminated them from that

They still very much have a cup run shot and should be the favorites

 

[Cam14b]

Better than the first two but Marchamd tried to do too much amd failed to keep the puck moving on the pp multiple times.

Also think Butch has done due diligence and been polite to give KK some games but that should be over, thinking we need to see someone in for Lauzon too, he is definitely making too many rookie mistakes.

I thought Tuukka looked good.

 

[Zillah]

I'm rooting for Claude, not the scabs.

 

[RoccoF14]

Well we didn’t suck like we did against Philly. That’s a plus.

Also, Rask outplayed Vasilevski so that’s a positive as well.

Offensively, we are toothless. The two goals we scored today were soft as fresh dog crap.

 

[Maine Fan]

The Bruins still had a shot to control their own destiny and decided to show up the way they did...

Blaming the league is loser maple leaf mentality

Right on.

 

[Budddy]

better game for sure but Marchand and Debrusk have to produce...wouldnt surprise me Debrusk sits on Sunday...

 

[Alicat]

After throwing my phone across the room, I decided that home ice doesn't mean shit in that shit hole.. f*** it. Get the rust out.

Welcome to the dark side

 

[BAD BOY]

Marchand looked terrible again.

Something isn’t right after the Exhibition game against Columbus

 

[ON3M4N]

Made the recommendation before and im going to make it again:

Marchand-Bergeron-Pastrnak
DeBrusk-Krejci-Coyle
Bjork-Studnicka-Kase
Ritchie-Kuraly-Wagner

Ya ya I know, Coyle is a better center. The advanced number on the trio are solid though. Id rather have a solid 1,2 & 4 than a solid 1 and 4

 

[mar2kbos]

Are we really back to moral victories? Well they played better. I guess participation trophies all around

 

[Maine Fan]

I think they'll have to live and die with Krejci Debrusk and Kase as the 2nd line.

Lets hope it is not dying. Strange line.

 

[BTO]

Who cares where they finish? Last line change is all your getting.Its nice but not be all to end all.

I don't care, I was responding to someone asking.

 

[Maine Fan]

Marchand looked terrible again.

Hard to accept that this happens. He has excuses, however.

 

[BruinDust]

How does the best team in the NHL all year come out so flat when the games start back up again?

That was last season. I know technically this tournament is a continuation of the 2019-20 season, but reality is this is a new season and the Bruins aren't looking like the team that was a buzz-saw during the previous season. We saw progress today, better execution, better effort.

 

[Grimey]

Wow , DeBrusk! I actually forgot all about him . If you would have told me he was out of the lineup today I wouldn’t bat an eye . Invisible

He's very Michael Ryder-esque with his hot/cold streaks

 

[Hamilton Brian]

It's like 2008 all over again, if that's the case.

 

[bme44]

First line MIA. better get going or we are in trouble

I question if Marchand is healthy ? He left the exhibition game and has been very unproductive in both round robin games

 

[Maine Fan]

better game for sure but Marchand and Debrusk have to produce...wouldnt surprise me Debrusk sits on Sunday...

That would surprise me. I think they go with what got them here even though it isn't working well right now.
