Bergeron not playing definitely makes me slightly less excited for this one but I am excited about watching the young guys and seeing them hopefully inject some life/speed into this team, and looking forward to watching the new face veterans as well. Heres hoping for a W!

 

[Ratty]

With Bergy out, and Czarnik possibly in, how does that alter the lines?

 

[Scotto74]

It's about time!!!

Drop the puck already.


We got this.

 

[BMC]

[Espresso Martini]

Agree, I also feel slightly less excited about the game with Bergeron out but I am looking forward to seeing Czarnik, Heinen, Carlo and O'Gara.

Pastrnak - Spooner - Marchand?
Pastrnak - Backes - Marchand?

Interesting...

Bruins site noted that Backus was working in practice pivoting Marchand and Pasternak.

Always have Dr. Zhivago on my mind when I type his name. Pastrnak. Sorry Davids.

 

[VanIsle]

F*** yea, its about time.

Best time of year, Bruins, Steelers, and I guess the Cubs now.

 

[Sempiternal]

Any details on the Bergeron injury? Think he'll play this weekend?

All they are saying is 'day to day'. Not traveling with team indicates we won't see him until the home opener at the earliest.

What about the BC Lions ? They are real good at football too.

Given insurance obligations, are teams allowed to fly everyone on the same flight or bus still?

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

New season new attitude, I'm taking ONLY the positives from each game. Life's to f-ing short to get worked up over a game

Lets Go Bruins!

Lets Go Boston Bruins!! I can't wait.. I am tuning to tonight's games..

Can't believe that both defensemen Adam McQuaid and Kevan Miller are already hurt and one is going to miss 6 weeks.
How unfortunate.

It doesn't seem that Bergeron is that serious and I think he'll be back for game 2 or 3..

 

[s3antana5757]

Can't wait for this game. Had a dress down jersey day at work today and wore the old Lucic jersey. So excited for this thing to get on the road.

Bad news on Bergeron, but we know it's something minor. Can't wait to see the new and hopefully improved back end. All the guys I wanted to see are in, so let's go to work.

Interested to see what that bottom line can or can't do. I think we'll be fine without Berg for a couple games. Gotta make sure he gets right before what hopefully is a long season.
