Game notes:

Luongo is expected back (offically questionable but everything I've read sounds like he's ready). Luongo was 0-3-0 with a 5.72 GAA and .820SV% in his 3 starts before getting hurt. I would still take him though, he can move laterally.

Habs and Canes both lost, so a win (somehow) moves Florida within 2 points of a playoff spot

Since losing Bergeron the Bruins have survived with a 4-2-2 record, but haven't scored at all, managing more than 2 goals once in those 8 games

In addition to Bergeron the Bruins are missing 3 of the starting 6 defensemen.

Bruins offence struggling? Not after Tuesday. And the East is so bad, Florida would easily be in a spot if not for the bellyflopper. Praying Bobby Lu lasts more than 3 games before he is down again.

I imagine a significant roster move is pending how long Lu lasts this time, as I'd like to believe that there won't be another "wait and see" approach with his next injury.

Hattrick for Pasta

Depressing stat:
As stated, the Bruins have scored 2 or fewer goals in 7 of their past 8 games, and in those 7 games they're 3-2-2.

Florida has 1 win all season when scoring 2 or fewer.

Depends on how Lu does here, if they're not successful with him back there's no point.

Man, I'm so used to them playing every other day. I'm adjusting a little bit.

 

[RogerRoger]

This is likely going to be Luongo's last season so I'll try to catch all of his games, but man do I not want to watch the Panthers.

Be careful what you wish for. This Lou does not like the Lou of years past.

Luongo was good his 1st 4 starts though. At least when he starts I know there's a chance he might not suck.

True. He’s been lights out or Reimerish. Reimer has been shit all season.

Talk about the crap luck this team has. Barky goes to the Heat game last night, and takes a knee to the head from Wade, who was trying to get a loose ball.

It’s kinda hard to see, but that’s him in the white shirt.

You have got to be kidding me.

Probably not, but it seems like Barkov got hit by the thigh mostly and blocked it with his hand/forearm.

Barkov is fine. Wade has a one blue testicle from the loose ball. The guy wears Fruit of the Loom so his boys have the room to roam.

 

[16Skippy]

Is that actually Barkov? I thought he was joking lol

 

[Ghoste]

Sasha actually apologized to Wade.
