The Bruins never seem to play well in Anaheim but the Ducks are reeling right now. Conversely the B's play well in Los Angeles and San Jose. Vegas they will spend an off day in and then wrap it up against a Blues team that has played well for the last month.

By the time the team returns home, the trade deadline will have passed so these games are critical into deciding what the team will do.

I am hoping for 7 points.

God I hate those 10PM games

Have to win the Ducks+Kings games cause SJ-LV-Stl won’t be an easy stretch.

 

[GlenFeatherstone]

6 out of 10 points and I’d be happy with the trip.

Luckily they will be 7 PM for me

Think NHL teams winning % overall is really low game after Vegas. Get some early wins this trip please .Get 3 out of 5 its a great trip missing top scorer Less could be fall in standings.Fingers crossed good trip.

 

[Kate08]

Flying out to Vegas Tuesday evening.

Probably the only game of the trip I’ll see since it won’t be 10pm local time

 

[Fenway]

@BMC - LA is not a 10 PM start - it is

Unless in Atlantic Canada ,be 11 there is my bet .

God I hate those 10PM games

I'm so spoiled with games being over by 7pm and being able to go to bed at 9pm that I can't even stay up for these games anymore. It's awful. Getting old sucks donkey balls. I really need to start working on finding that sugar daddy...LOL

 

[HockeyMomx2]

Me too. Sadly I won't make the end of any of 'em I bet lol

Get your nap in

Say what you will about the Sharks in the playoffs, but their regular season consistency is crazy. That team is always near the top of the standings.

 

[zaYG]

Never go to games anymore because of the price at the garden but damn, tickets here in SJ starting at $39. I'll probably be there. First game in a couple of years.

 

[RedeyeRocketeer]

Points are at a pre...ah, whatever. Just play well.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

@BMC - LA is not a 10 PM start - it is

Really? Why not midnight?

I'm in the OC and the Ducks game tickets are at $25 right now. But I kind of already made plans for Friday, so I guess I'll miss out.

I do want to see a Kings game sometime, but for some reason tickets are twice as expensive there despite the team sucking nearly as bad as the Ducks, plus having to drive up there. Probably won't be able to do it this year. But eventually.

Lets steamroll through the west and hopefully obtain some key pieces along the way. Not gonna be easy, yet nothing has been thus far. Grind it out! Believe!

 

[Krupp]

Ahhhh the Disney Death march....my favorite time of the year!

Still weird to see a team in Vegas. When one thinks of hockey, that city is still not a place I would've pictured having a franchise. I just hope the B's can survive this trip with 4-6 points, and with EVERYONE intact.

This is the part of the season where they tore out due to too many games played. The garden being too over booked. It happens all the time. I hope it doesn’t this year.

There has been an ice show at the Garden during school vacation week going back to the 1950's. It is a huge profit item and that will never change.

March brings other issues - high school basketball and hockey tournaments, Big East hockey championship. At least no NCAA events are scheduled at TD Garden until 2022 (Frozen Four)

I'm glad Anaheim finally won last night - got it out of their system. Was sure we could end up the slump busters.

LA is terrible. We probably win or lose in OT again. San Jose is going to be a battle that is a very, very good team.

 

[Orr Fourever]

San Jose is going to be a battle that is a very, very good team.

Boston Bruins are a very, very good team.
