Post-Game Talk: The B's get swamped in the Everglades - Panthers 5 BRUINS 0 F

Sorry, it took so long to get the PGT up - I had tech issues
It was simply a surreal night - there were as many Bruins fans in the arena as Panthers fans but they never had the chance to be heard.

Absolutely pathetic. Move the team to Quebec City please.
The arena overall makes money and the team keeps increasing in value.
The attendance was announced as 12,058 but in reality, it was about 8,000
@Ladyfan Did you like the venue? I think it is one of the nicer arenas in the NHL but the location is terrible because of South Florida traffic. A fan from Naples or Ft Myers can get there quicker than most of Dade County. You go less than one mile west of the arena you are in the swamp

The Bruins need to protect against a sophomore slump

How can a team "protect" against a sophomore slump that's stupid!
Finchster
Well I think it is a good idea to get one proven top 9 guy just encase a few of the kids have a sophomore slump

That's non-sense! We have so many good young players at least a few are bound to have a break out season!

We can't score any goals and kids aren't doing anything!

Who, Florida or Boston?
Cause the way the Bruins played last night, they should be relocated to Siberia or Mars.
I’m for seeing how the rest of the trip plays out, because what else can you do really, but if they end up on the outside looking in over the next week or two, they should be open for business on the trade front. And I’m not talking about adding pieces.
I’m a broken record on this one, but having to go through Tampa at some point in the playoffs for me feels like a death sentence.

Its still early but this seems sort of like a wasted season so far. They didnt really add anyone during the off-season other than Halak and Moore. Think they were waiting on Kovalchuk and for Nash to make up his mind. Neither happened for the team and they had no plan C. I'm still hopeful Heinen, Bjork, JFK, and others will become certified NHLers but this season just seems blech.

Can they inform Jacobs that his team will miss the playoffs and lose money if Neely, Sweeney and Cassidy are not gone before Christmas ?
Papa Jacobs was at the game tonight - He did not look happy

For the first time, I think I could have backstopped a team to win an NHL game. We generated no chances and no traffic. Every shift it seemed one of our forwards would attack the line 1v3 and turn it over with no support anywhere near them. If we did get the puck down low it would be a 1v2 board battle with no support. Everyone seemed so concerned with playing defense that they forgot they needed to score to win the game. The team last night looked like Dave Lewis was behind the bench.
We can do better, but something has to change in the lineup. Heinen, Wagner, Accari, Nordstrom, Backes, Donaro, etc... We have 2 lines of underperforming players and our 2nd line has 2 players on it that are contributing and one of those only started to recently.
I have to believe coming into this season this was worst case scenario for this team. Time to make some changes and shake things up. 10 games.... ok slumps happen. 25 games.... this isn't a slump anymore. Something is wrong. If we didn't get an all star performance from our goalies on the majority of nights, we would be discussing draft prospects right now and that is not acceptable.

The transition game.
We couldn't properly enter their zone, not even neutral zone for that matter - i mean we could of course come into the neutral but we were already a step behind.
Sluggish all over.
Impossible to say anything positive here; our patience is being tested.
Hopefully Bergy & Charlie come back soon, change the pace and stay healthy.
Kevan is missed too.

We liked the arena but the game was pretty bad.
There are too many 4th line guys. It is not their fault. They are what they are. A few will be better but are just too young and need time in Providence.
Our D has too many holes with all of the injuries.
I felt bad for them last night.
After the game we drove 100 miles and stopped at a Holiday Inn for the night.
We are heading to Universal Studios to stay for 3 nights. Will will drive over to Tampa Thursday to see the B's.

The Detroit game and then this one are a little scary...
That did not look like an NHL team last night.

In fairness, take away a teams 1c and first pair defense and this is what you can expect a lot of times. That being said this team isn’t good enough with the injuries but what are you going to do? You can’t deal from a position of weakness. The plan seems to be to hold on to a wildcard and ride it out. Good plan? We will see.
Top 3 in the Atlantic is slipping away and their WC slot is precarious
The B's have been devastated by injuries and they needed to tread water and they are not doing that. Playoff math is a spreadsheet and the team is getting close to this
I want to be wrong on what I feel

Lots of teams chasing them now. I dont see how they keep pace. Pitt will get hot. Montreal got Weber back, Carolina, Rangers etc will stay close.
Have a bad feeling this is the end of the cores window barring a miracle.

Ignores/60 = Elite
So every team in the NHL can get better or hot, but Boston can't?

Without Bergeron and getting out muscled nightly , doubtful or very unlikely. If it goes south tank tank tank, clean house, hire Quenville,. They need a fresh look on things.
still need to get a top 6 forward. the kids have been given a chance and none have stepped up. Heinen has regressed. if a goalie doesn't steal a game they lose. i would even try Stempniak at this point.
