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

[Spooner st]

INB4 Cassidy gets fined

Who cares about the fine. Fine by me.

 

[Spooner st]

Yeah true,but if Chara is out there kind of running out of options,I really think if he is out ,they need to go with seven D.

Either way, we have options.

From Kalman:
I'd be ok with the team sending a private message to the league, but I don't wanna see Butch address it in public.




I agree with MK. Cassidy needs to do the same thing Berube did and plant the seed

 

[Bruinfanatic]

I think it would be Acciari that would sit...This is also a recipe for disaster if the game goes to OT.

Why Acciari I’d go Backes,Bruins could rotate onto the second line.

 

[Mainehockey33]

And sandbag the third line

Right now the 2nd line is sandbagged, so no matter what we’re going to have a weak line unless some players find chemistry unexpectedly.

I see what you did there.

 

[UncleRico]

Need to break up this second line. It’s just it’s not working at all. I’m not sure if the answer is to move players around because the third line really shouldn’t be touched but debrusk-krejci-backes is not working.

 

[Spooner st]

I see what you did there.

You didn't see the others? There's a few.

 

[Fenway]

Finally, the team heads for home

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

I love JDB, but the B’s have played 21 games, and you are saying DeBrusk was a “beast” for a whopping 1.5 games? He could have been playing concussed, but it’s been 19 games and not sure how many weeks.

Time to show up and earn that second contract in 20/21.

As others have mentioned I think the only option Cassidy may consider is putting Heinen with Bergeron/ Marchand and dropping Pasta down to line 2 and Backes to line 3 .

Agree I'm just saying maybe he isn't right yet.
No excuses, if he would play like the the first 1.5 games the parade would be over by now.

 

[Bruin]

Come on people, the Blues tied the series, they had to because they know what’s in store for them on Thursday. Whenever we’ve needed the boys to step up, they have and they will again.

All this doom and gloom is bumming me out, y’all gotta stop. lol

 

[LouJersey]

I find this funny considering you've been gloom & doom this entire thread?

I also said I think it's 50/50. The Bruins played like crap at home in game 5 against the Leafs. Do that on Thursday and they are in DANGER against a tough Blues team w/out Gryz and possibly Chara.

Doom and Gloom for calling people out for not giving the Blues credit?

For calling out the top 6?

For saying they need to get more shots?

You said you see them the series 50/50 not me. I’ve called Bruins in 6 since the start

 

[Maine Fan]

Well it is the day after. I can't imagine that Rask is being beat up for "rebounds." He is the Bruins best player, he has shown up for 60 minutes every night unlike some of the other players.

Rask is my MVP

 

[VanIsle]

Chara will be there, I would call out Tarasenko if I was Cassidy, what a joke that was.

 

[member 96824]

The problem is when you leave no margin of error you allow guys like Scott Walker and Joel Ward to become heroes.

It doesn't look good on the league, refs, Blues.

And the league is ok with it, they want a 7 game series.

 

[Krupp]

Tying up the series was always a possibility.

Some people on here have previously complained about Chara not being fast enough to keep up anymore. Well, we may now get to see what life without him in the playoffs looks like. Kinda makes me nervous honestly.

Sucks they lost. But I had a bad feeling about the game the moment that first Blues goal went in. The Blues knew their backs were against the wall

Hard to say what to do ,hate to mess with the third line,some people will say it’s one loss why mess with the lines,but the truth is other than power play the top lines have sucked,its amazing they have gotten this far really,but with a power play running at a close to 40% clip,and Tuukku bailing them out and the other line contributing it has masked the terrible play of first two lines 5-5.I really don’t know what they do,my guess is nothing and hope the Power Play gets their chances next game.

 

[Fenway]

They were tied 2-2 with the Leafs. They were tied 2-2 in the second round against the Blue Jackets. Heck, when they won the Cup eight years ago, they trailed the Canucks 2-0 and 3-2 in the series, and had to win Game 7 on the road. The Bruins are home for Games 5 and 7. The advantage is theirs.

I like the cut of your jib !

 

[Midship]

Two f***ing PPs for the Bruins last night with how the Blues were running around all game.... what an utter farce . NHL getting the longer series it wanted.

 

[JRull86]

Bruins have never won game 5 of a SCF when tied 2-2.

Time to buck that trend.

The Phantom tripping penalty on Clifton. Wow.
