Lightning are 3-10-1 their last 14 since starting 6-1-0. Ouch. Still right in the horrific Southeast.
has to be new fans...
With the goalie revolving door since the moog/lemelin split until Tim thomas, it is mind boggling that bruins fans could be so pissy

It has to end . . . It has to end . . .
And Bourque is not a fourth line player.
I was hoping that Bourque, who has been so successful offensively in the AHL, would come in and help the Bruins. He is trying hard but it isn't happening.
He's had a really fair shot from the Bruins. Time to go back and help Providence win the Calder Cup.

Then again, you could land plane on that nose, so.
Marchand can pick a corner. Love the posturing on that goal. Bergeron telegraphed he was going to pass it the whole time. B/c he knows Marchand is going to put it exactly where he should w/ a goalie moving across. Right in the extreme top corner.

+1 if he didn't, it would have been his first 2 game 'drought' of the year
he has been consistent and makes me thankful that chia locked him up early

The Bourque PP Experiment has to end!
i haven't felt that way on with someone on the bruins in a long time.
and its coming from marchand, what a story
The Bourque PP Experiment has to end!
He was replaced by Sieds on the PP in this very game.

You know it's bad when we are raving about Paille on the third line.
You could just see it in Kelly and Peverley today when they had an NHL caliber player on their line.
That's not a wrap around pass.
It's a clean pass to the point, not forcing it like we've seen sooo many times. Good play by Paille, Quader and Peverley.

Another solid win by the b's, great to see Segs and Peverley score. Marchand is a big time player! Props to Khudobin as well.

Exactly, we are happy because of who he replaced, not that he is a long term solution on the line.

This game showed me, again, that Chiarelli MUST go and get a third line winger. We have a gaping hole on the third line.
- It was nice to see a little piss and vinegar out of the boys today, I hope it carries over to tomorrow.
- The officials. My lord.
- Tyler Seguin looked like Tyler Seguin today.
- Nathan Horton, IMO, was just awful today.
- Milan Lucic was playing with some emotion. He is due to snap, I hope it happens tomorrow.
- Dougie Hamilton can't be a rookie.
- Dobby looked shaky to me but made some saves when it was required. I don't trust him though. He's going to be playing quite a bit for the balance of the season though, I'd like to see him sharpen up a bit.
- Andrew Ference had another decent game. I think he has turned the corner.
- The 4th line was a miserable disaster. We had two players who have no right being in the NHL playing on it. Pandolfo adds nothing and Chris Bourque? Well, I think his time is done. He's about one game away from a scratch and then a demotion. It's time. Get a legit NHL player with size and grit on that third line.
- Thornton better be ready to play tomorrow.
- Rich Peverley is playing really well right now and being held back by anchors on his wings. Chris Kelly was awful, again.
Roll the Habs tomorrow. Remind them who is elite and who is run of the mill.

If you had told me before the game that Tampa was going to get 8 or 9 PP's this game, I would have predicted a slaughter. Just awful officiating and it went both ways. Nice to see the B's finally play with some energy after the 1st period. Good timing with Montreal coming to town.
I barely noticed Bourque at all. Barring injuries, I think his shot is coming to an end soon. Definitely bring Thornton back over Pandolfo if he's healthy.

Yah, Bourque played almost no PP minutes (and our powerplay had it's best game of the season) and the 4th line played very little because of all the PK time.
He's finished. He's a place holder right now. Unless he has the game of his life tomorrow he might find himself scratched Tuesday.

I thought Thornton played one of his better games last game against the Sens.
Agree with everything you said but this. I thought I saw him set up at least 3 great scoring chances and just missing a couple himself. Close but no rabbit (no Cigar? no Chicken? can't remember the saying)... But awful? I don't think so.
Seems to me like shots off the glass is more common than usual.
My question is why is everybody trying to pick corners!?

I think Claude wanted an extra PK man out there today they got 4 pairings with him in.
Campbel-Paille
Pando-Pevs
Bergy-Marchy
Kelly-Krejci
Just said it was a nice goal the set up was a beaut from Mcquiad as well. The line as a whole looked no different than normal. They have scored 4-5 goals before this as well. Doesn't mean they looked good.
Pevs looked better than usual(He has played well in a few other games as well). Kelly was still awful, and Paille did what you expect him to do.
