Post-Game Talk: SCF GAME 7 - Heartbreak at the Hub on Causeway - St. Louis Wins The Stanley Cup

[Coach Parker]

Fellow fans:

2011 happened.
You’ve seen the Bruins in the Finals 3 of the last 9 years. That’s 1/3rd.
You’ve won 3 game 7s against the Leafs at home in the last 7 years.

Exhale. Get a hug from a loved one, give condolences to those that paid to watch 3/4 losses at home and hope for some pleasant surprises and changes with new faces in the next two weeks.

Feels like 2013 and 2019 taint 2011 for me.

To me, it doesn't taint the 2011 at all.

We had such a different team back in 2011. Guys looked out for one another and stood up for each other. They didn't get knocked off the puck so easily like this year, the stupid pretty passes that often lead to the opposition getting the puck and skating to our zone for a scoring chance. Lack of scoring 5 on 5. Top two lines not producing and playing terrible most of the time defensively. The 2011 team would never have allowed Rask to be rammed into like he was during some of the games in this year's playoffs. This team was fun to watch for the most part in this playoffs, but there is definitely room for improvement.

I keep thinking, had we faced Washington first, this thread wouldn't exist tonight. Or Tampa. Next year, Toronto, in my opinion, will be hard to beat- I felt they were our hardest series.

Remember the winter classic at Gillette against the Habs? Same Bruins team showed up tonight. This core can't handle the biggest stages and neesds to be shaken up.

You know, this team can probably go on another cup run in it next year but can it win it, IDK. This is probably frustration talking but tonight I'm ready to trade everyone for a bunch of bangers. If the games are going to be called the way they are in the PO's. Who cares who leads the league in penalties in January, just make it to the show.

Did someone twist your arm to spend money on them?

No one twisted their arms tho

Lost 3 out 4 at home. Pathetic

At least I have the Pat's They dont f*** around

 

[BruinsFanMike82]

Hated that signing.

Worst poster in this thread started trash talking me in DM then gave me his phone number, if anyone is looking for a reason to smile.

I don't remember giving you my phone #

Blaming the ice sheet?

Ice tonight was the best it has been in months

The ice plant and scoreboard get ripped out tomorrow

One last look at the old scoreboard control room

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

Ship everyone out and live with the results. Core transition will be needed.

So you keep Pasta, McAvoy, and Bergy? Everyone else is fair game?

 

[b in vancouver]

I'm going to have a couple more pepsis and watch Farscape.

 

[Festy1986]

Blaming the ice sheet?

What a pathetic excuse. Lost 3 out of 4 at f***ing home. This "core" isn't good enough unless Thomas is bailing us out

 

[The don godfather]

The only thing I'll remember from this run is a guy named carl gunnerson. Im.going to bed to try to sleep. Wish me luck.

That tells alot on the previous month....

I did and he was not good. I still don't where he was afraid to take a hit, or the other top 6 guys. Physicality was not an issue tonight.

Not necessarily tonight, but overall? Absolutely it was.

NMC says hi

What bothers me a ton is... couldnt score 5 v 5 goals.

Most goals in the regular season and playoffs came on special teams.

In the SCF whistles are usually out of the picture

Is that a Bruin problem or a NHE problem?

No point in calling the slightest thing in the early season if your going to let anything go in the PO's.

 

[Marcobruin]

I'm obviously frustrated because well we could of had it
And at HOME and we let it slip away but also because it will be a long time before we ever win or go to the finals again

 

[Fenway]

With a heavy heart, I start pumping out the postgame videos

[smithformeragent]

Goodnight, folks.

 

[JOKER 192]

This was a huge play Marchand appears to have the whole left side of the net open but shoots right back into Binnington in a zero, zero game and then of course, he decided to go to the bench instead of helping the boys out in the final seconds of the 1st which lead to a goal, because he was too tired. The missed opportunity happens and its acceptable the quit and going to the bench is not!

There really should be a dislike button here.

 

[BRUINS since 1995]

So you keep Pasta, McAvoy, and Bergy? Everyone else is fair game?

First....I hope DS will rest and wait before doing anything. I truly beleive we need more size on the top 6. Question is: how this aging core will go thru next season... why not repeat 2019! Everyone is afraid of Tampa...Washington.. but they were all loser this year. Getting in the PO and everything can happen again!

I went to the game worst game I've ever seen the Bruins play.

Absolute embarrassment.

Agree with all of this. He wasn't that good that he should have had all the TOI he had ( not a good sign when your the offensive D man and you are matched by Carlo in goals) . Carlo was Boston's best defender through out these PO's, ( Yes I know he wasn't perfect) but he should have been the go to guy IMO.

I am so glad to see someone else acknowledge Carlo. I thought he was great in all of the series and his two goals in this series was sweet to witness.

Bruins don’t get bye Tampa or Washington

I’m drunk and it doesn’t feel good tonight
