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

[Jean_Jacket41]

Acciari and Wagner on third line in practice today. Tomorrow night should be fun.

Cassidy needs to be taken to the hospital. No sane person would make that decision.

Not sure where you're getting your information from. It's a f***ing ugly lineup, but this isn't close to being true according to Bruins twitter.

These lines aren't working. Cassidy needs to switch it up. I know its blindly throwing darts at a dart board, but we at least know what doesn't work. Marchand - Cave - Pastrnak isn't producing and Krejci - Debrusk isn't producing.

I don't care how you mix them up, there just isn't enough talent in the F group.

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

Marchand - Krejci - Pastrnak
Heinen - Cave - DeBrusk
Nordstrom - Kuraly - Backes
Donato - JFK - Wagner

Why is Acciari always in? Is it for his perceived toughness level, because I don’t see it. Therefore, there’s no benefit. He’s modern day David Backes just with less experience.

I don’t even like JFK’s game, and that is one weak-ass fourth line, but I don’t know...

This is the lineup I would try. Your most talent and experienced F’s on the 1st. Fairly speedy line second. A “somewhat” physical line for the third. And the remaining pieces on the fourth which hopefully gets matched up against equal or lesser competition skill wise.

 

[Mathews28]

Meanwhile, Cehlarik can't sniff the NHL at this point? Or Blidh? Or Fitzgerald?

I liked the compete factor from the former 2 above...haven't seen enough of Fitzgerald.

Keep hearing assistant coaches saying "we need to be harder on pucks." No kidding. Certain players just don't seem to get it.

 

[BergyWho37]

I miss Bjork..

I get he wasn’t producing but imo he creates offence also has the nutz to push the net. Not a saviour but has the offensive tools were lacking.

I want to see Frederic soon plz 3c is a problem and extremely worse now that Bergy’s out

 

[wintersej]

I think we both know the Bruins’ problems are too big for any one of those players to fix.

I’m not sure. Unless you are a big Spooner fan it’s essentially the same roster as last season. The Bruins strength last year was having McAvoy, Krug or Gryz out there at all times. Quick ups. The young D have been admirable but this team is playing Julien paced hockey with Julien level aggression from the forwards and Julien level D to D passes. They won’t at full health. Do they also need some help in the top 9? Probably. They did last year, too. But what level of guy do they need to add? How desperate do they need to be to make it happen? How can anyone know at this point?

Yeah no way to I make a move before seeing Bjork back up with confidence and before Frederic makes his debut.

 

[KrejciMVP]

8 forwards might as well be in Providence. This is bad and lottery worthy

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

I’m glad Bjork is down in Providence for his sake, but there are far worse, and less effective, players in the current lineup. I don’t think anyone can debate that.

Please take Cave away from our 2 best wingers, it is not working.

 

[elMatador]

Marchand - Krejci - Pastrnak
Cehlarik - Frederic - DeBrusk
Heinen - Cave - Fitzgerald
Nordstrom - Kuraly - Backes

 

[KrejciMVP]

Please take Cave away from our 2 best wingers, it is not working.

He has 1 career point. That's 1st line material to this FO.

It was fool's gold with Riley Nash. A repeat isn't happening with his lookalike.

like somebody else posted.
I would throw backes between pasta and marshy

theni would recall cehlarik and put him with krejci and debrusk

 

[Sheppy]

Why on earth haven’t they moved up Krejci to the first line?

Was Cave not the best player in Providence at the time of recall? Yes. Has he made a difference to this team? No. Neither will Cehlarik, Blidh or Fitzgerald. This team needs their NHL D back.

 

[Krupp]

Someone else was bringing this up, but I showed in another thread, that while he has 72 PIMs this season, 20 of them are from 10 minute misconducts. Then another 10 minutes came from 2 fighting majors.

Why on earth haven’t they moved up Krejci to the first line?

Honestly, that's never occurred to me before, but i'd be intrigued by it....

 

[BruinsFanSince94]

Marchand -- Krejci -- Pastrnak
Nordstrom -- Cave -- DeBrusk
Heinen -- Kuraly -- Backes
Donato -- Acciari -- Wagner

We thought the Bruins were a one line team with Bergeron in there. This is actually a one line team

 

[Sheppy]

This team needs their defense healthy (The defense doesn’t concern me) it’s the forward depth. They need a second line winger, badly. They also need a natural 3C.

Nordstrom -- Cave -- DeBrusk

It is, but I’d take a one line team right now over a no-line team.

I get that. But they havent even given Cehlarik a shot after the great camp he had. They have nothing to lose right now.

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

I like Cave. He’s never going to be a first line center, but I like his style.

Him being where is in the lineup isn’t on the FO. It’s on the coach.
