GDT: 10/13/16 7 PM - Game 1 - BRUINS at Columbus OPENING NIGHT - NESN, WBZ-FM 98.5

[The Scarecrow]

Marchand is a killing it.

 

[TCL40]

Wow Marchand is killing it tonight!

Be nice if the other three lines would do something though.

 

[toasterjam]

Carlo looking ALOT better than Werenski

 

[Blowfish]

Woop march. Any updates on Hayes?

 

[pierre gagnon*]

Bergy in my opinion is one of the best all around players in the game but did he just get demoted.

 

[Gator Mike]

At times, it's really noticeable how much quicker the Bruins are closing down space in the neutral zone.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Incredible goal.

 

[Ladyfan]

Marchand definitely worth that contract !!!

Hi Ken !

B's are lucky to have him. Great deal.

 

[VanIsle]

Lines with Bergeron will be interesting once he gets back.

I know you play Bergy Marchand together but Backes and Pasta just produce.

 

[GloveSave1]

Is a Nuttyvara like a Euro Snickers bar? Heh

 

[Strange Universe]

Where is Bergeron going to play? Krejci wing?

No way!! I would not want Bergy to catch Krecji's syndrome....

 

[RI.B FAN]

So good to see Pasta with a big night

 

[JCRO]

Read 8 pages and nothing on Hayes?

Exactly... NOTHING.

I don't think it will be a point of contention for Claude.

Marchand-Bergeron-Pastrnak
Spooner-Krejci-Backes

back to the pre-season setup.

Backes and Pastrnak were money together as well in the preseason. It'll be tough to see how the lines shape up.

 

[Dellstrom]

I'm brain storming/farting here but... Marchand-Backes-Bergeron?

I think I'd try

Marchand-Bergy-Pasta
Spooner-Krecji-Backes

Spooner and Krejci together is kinda scary considering they can both float, but I think Backes would be good at keeping them going. He makes A LOT of space, whereas Bergy and Marchand are absolute possession gods and don't need that as much as Spooner and Krejci.

Really tough to break any of these three up, and this is because we're adding a top-5 center back into the lineup... We'll see. We have lots of options for sure. Really happy to see Backes is making his presence known right away. He will be well appreciated all season long, never takes a game or shift off.

 

[finchster]

Brad Marchand was pretty much the whole team tonight.

 

[BMC]

How are you doing, Betsy?

My Facebook and Twitter pages are exploding with comments about #63

 

[Ladyfan]

Hi Betsy. Busy summer, but I'm back now !!!

No BMC is Betsy ...I am Susan

 

[Jorah Marshmont]

Acciari almost had one there

 

[TP]

2 assists? I thought it was 3.

 

[Bruinaura]

I wonder if Marchand told Backes that he had to play like Bergy.
