The 757 that will take them home tonight is currently in Anchorage
The Bruins are using a new charter company this season after their long-term provider went broke last spring.

The latest models don’t have landfall until early morning hours Thursday. Sunrise is on the opposite coast.
Assuming their charter can get to Florida before the game ends, there doesn’t really seem to be a reason to cancel. The team can get out with 24+ hours to spare. To my knowledge, there have been no evacuation orders on the east coast yet.
If the game was in Tampa, totally different story.

We will miss the Debrusk of the playoffs and of two/three seasons ago, we won't miss the streakiness and the regular season version from last year.
I do believe it's not as easy as replacing him with Geekie but Geekie was in our top 6 either way last year. The way I see it is for our top 6 and scoring to improve we need:
Lindholm needs to be better than Zacha
Zacha needs to be better than Debrusk
Geekie needs to be better than he was last year in the top 6.
Think all of the above are very doable, but someone will need to step up in the playoffs to fill the void Jake left.
My biggest fear about our top 6 scoring is actually Marchy, I wouldn't be surprised to see him take a step back to a 50ish point two-way guy again, but we'll see

We had 8 (!) guys near or above 20 goals last year - the idea that secondary scoring was absent, or that it’s a lock it will be this year, is plain old dumb
Pasta, Coyle, Zacha, Marchy are strong bets for 20+
Geekie, Freddie and Elias are fair bets
Braz is an outside shot to hit it

HUGE f***ing joke. He absolutely does not belong on the roster over Sweezy. Sweezy displayed everything that you'd want him to. Toughness, moving the puck up ice, and a great shot from the point and NO reluctance to use it. Another strange Monty decision I suspect?
I read that Mitchell is hurt so he can't be sent down until healthy, probably only reason he's still up.

Playoffs:
Debrusk 5-6-11 -5
Geekie 4-1-5 even
No one is expecting Geekie to change his game. Simply to step into the 2nd line role.

Complaining about the officials before the first puck is even dropped.
Classic.

So...I don't have the skill BUT are there any poster willing to help out with putting up the GDTs this season? Ali does an excellent job but is a lot for a working woman.

Lohrei and Carlo were fabulous last playoffs while Lohrei and Peeke struggled.
I think it's either him or Lindholm on the third. Hampus gets N1 with McAvoy but that can change.
Wouldn't mind trying to add and getting someone a little slicker than Peeke for 3RD even if the cap hit was slightly more.
Bit of a high profile game with likely heightened emotion. Luxmore is in over his head in those games and Sutherland craves the spotlight. Perhaps the worst two for a game like this.
Thanks Susan! I am happy to provide all the assets to do the GDT's and all you'd be responsible for is completing the stats, lines and adding any photos or articles you see fit.
I love doing them but I am in a creative funk and just trying to rebalance myself. Hopefully after a good apartment declutter and just spending time off my computer this week, I will be recharged.
Normally I'd agree but Luxmore is horrendous. Don't mind Sutherland or the linesmen but TJ, he's worse than Rooney.
