Former Bruins Sean Kuraly: Signs w/ Columbus

[JCRO]

Any time a defender joins him in the corner he puts them on spin cycle (casual).

Love this guy. What an impact he makes.

 

[BigGoalBrad]

Absolute steal for 2 more years at that cap hit. Lifts the game of his linemates. No worries about Acciari or Nordy going forward.

 

[PB37]

his combination of puck possession, speed and energy are ridiculous. huge key to this team.

He's using the one man cycle routine ala Coyle more and more of late. Fun to watch.

I hope Senyshyn is watching this closely and seeing the effect on a game a larger player with high end speed can have with just playing style and effort alone.

 

[Caper Bruins fan]

What I like about Kuraly is he fights right to the bitter end of every shift and that little extra burst of determination often makes things happen . I was never the type of fan who had a favourite player , it’s all about the team but I just love the way Kuraly plays the game .

 

[BruinsBtn]

I thought Playoff Kuraly was his final form but Finals Kuraly is even better.

You know your team is not close to being a contender when people are missing a player like Kuralay!

I am wondering where all those guys who said we had a bunch of NCAA sheep on our team are these days?

Don't worry, they'll show up with some stupid hot take the moment something goes wrong

 

[Kalus]

He has to be one of the best 4th liners in the league.

Fire Sweeney right? He hated Bergeron too

 

[Dellstrom]

The throw in/roster dump from the Lucic trade... I'd probably make that trade one-for-one if I had hindsight!

I felt the same about 2011 Thornton/Campbell/Paille as I do about him. 4th liner, sure, but he's a glue guy.

 

[Emerz]

This man is a big game player, always has been, always will be.

Unbelievably timely goals.

On top of everything else he brings too, pretty much your ideal fourth line center.

 

[Jean_Jacket41]

Him alone makes that Lucic/Jones trade a total win.

So many big playoffs plays, his latest goal the biggest of all.

Signed for two more years cheap and giving the Bruins a matchup advantage against other teams.

 

[rocketdan9]

love the "lift up" lets go reaction!

 

[weaponomega]

0.09 GPG in regular season, 0.23 in the playoffs. Big game beast.

 

[JCRO]

Love this mans.

Scores in the big games for his team

The Full Tilt Boogie Band, Krazy Legs Kuraly, Nockem Noel Acciari, Wackem Joakim Nordstrom,Crunchtime Chris Wagner. Kuraly was Captain Senior year at Miami, named Best Defensive Forward that year in conference. Noel Acciari Captain Senior year at Providence, named Best Defensive Forward in his conference on NCAA champ.Maybe the Scouts are onto something? Get the guys that set the bar for the others and throw the damn bar away.

To all of us fans who didn't know him at the time it seemed that's what he was.

But by all accounts the B's scouted him and badly wanted him as part of the deal.

 

[LouisSleigher]

In addition to his other big goals he also scored a goal in game 6 against Columbus that was disallowed, unfairly in my opinion.

 

[DaStinger]

The little engine that could, keep those feet moving Sean!

 

[Tmac37]

Legend status.

was it him or acciari that had a goal (or 2) disallowed against ottawa a few years ago?

 

[BNHL]

Very good game,best catalyst on team

My favorite little play from Kuraly last night was on the PK after Bozak had his stick hatcheted by Chara. The lumber was still out there, and while the play was away from him, Kuraly calmly turned the blade of the stick that was on the ice parallel to the blue line instead of vertical. Didn't end up mattering, but such a subtle smart thing. Love the guy.
