Post-Game Talk: SCF GAME 4 - Back to Boston - Best of 3 - Series tied 2-2

[Bruinaura]

As a showing of unity, we should all eat soft, pureed foods over the next couple of days.

As for cookies in the GDT, perhaps a nice Cookies and Cream ice cream.

 

[RustyBruins72]

I'm not sure how a fan can think you can lose with 2/3 home games needing to win two. Have some faith for ffs.

Game 5 is huge Lou.

If Z can't go then the D really got to step up.

I still believe but maybe not as much as yesterday.

Go Bruins.

 

[Bruinfanatic]

Cassidy did mention if Chara and Gryz cant go, they might have to look at 11F 7D for game 5.

Who is their 7th D in that situation? Vaak?

Yeah think they would have to go with 7 D ,would have to be Vaak,hasn’t he been practicing with the team,not just with the Black Aces.Starting to worry the Bruins are just getting to banged up ,shades of Chicago series,where as Blues seem to be getting healthier.No I haven’t given up ,but am definitely worried.

 

[Spooner st]

They want 7 game series

It's pretty obvious, our chances in a G7? I like it a lot.

 

[ODAAT]

Totally different scenarios and certainly not wishing for it but if there is a silver lining to a potential Z absence from the series if he`s unable to go it`s that the B`s did have to play without him for a lengthy period this season.

But my gut tells me he`ll be in

 

[Trap Jesus]

After the season this blueline has had with all the injuries maybe it's only appropriate that they have to try to close this out in this fashion.

 

[Bruinfanatic]

The Blues dont have to win 2/3 in Boston just the next one ,with Chara out possibly that’s not really a stretch.

 

[Prince Pasta]

Still picking us in 6, even if this goes 7 I'm confident.

If the game was tomorrow I would guess he wouldn't go. With an extra day, I think there's a chance.

 

[The don godfather]

I'll take rask over billington in best out of 3 in the morning noon or night Christmas April fool's day etc.

 

[Spooner st]

Debrusk has basically been a no show the entire playoffs,and I would wager the majority of all their shots have been on the power plays.

Up to the hit to the head by kadri in G2 of Toronto series
DeBrusk was a beast.

When are you going to realize its not about Rask vs Bennington.

 

[Caper Bruins fan]

I'll take rask over billington in best out of 3 in the morning noon or night Christmas April fool's day etc.

I love your optimism but it really doesn’t matter who is in goal for the Blues if the Bruins play like they did in games 2 and 4 . The margin for error is so tight now . It’s gut check time .

 

[Spooner st]

If history serves us well, we would remember Bruins always come up big after a loss. Chara or not Chara that is NOT the question. We have others options.

Not for the unity, but for my belly.

 

[Oates2Neely]

Bruins are still the better team. Bruins are winning this series

I don't think that Debrusk is injured; he's just playing poorly. He can, and should, be better. The same goes for the first line and, recently, Krejci.

The silver lining would be that he has been atrocious at times with his puck management in his own end (hell he got hurt cause he couldn't clear the puck). If they get a skill guy in their on the backend to help with puck retrieval and break outs it could be a nice add for them.


I also have to assume Chara is done though and has a broken jaw if he couldn't play last night

 

[ODAAT]

been the same for the Blues, series has been literally back and forth.

B`s didn`t deserve to even be in it last night but they were, thought the Blues were the much better team in game 2 as well with the B`s looking like a different team in games 1 and 3. Tis playoff hockey, momentum from game to game is a myth

Guy had ELEVEN days off after the ECF.

I mean, his brain could be off still but damn how many excuses are we gonna have.

He's been bad. He needs to be better.

he didn`t clear the zone as he should have but let`s not get crazy and say his injury was self inflicted here, it was a fluky play and unfortunately he`s paying a painful price today

I don't know... hope they are, if not that's s huge problem.
For now, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.

 

[rocketdan9]

If they go with 7 Ds... guessing
Kampfer and Lauzon is in

Marchand Bergeron Pasta
Debrusk Krejci Kuraly
Mojo Coyle Heinen
Nordstrom Acciari (rotate)

I think they'd probably sit Acciari, and double shift Pasta on the 1st and 4th lines for the most part.
