Pre-Game Talk: 10/8 GAME 1 (Approximately 7:15 PM) - Season 101 Begins - ESPN, ESPN+, SN, TVAS, 98.5 WBZ-FM

[Clint Eastwood]

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

Classic.

The NHL is back! We're just getting into the spirit!

 

[Bleached]

I had a dream about the Stanley Cup last night. I am taking it as a good sign.

 

[Shaun]

i’m ready to be hurt again

 

[Grimey]

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

Classic.

I’m not sure I’ll be able to watch so I’ll get my reps in early.

 

[Mad-Marcus]

Talk about making a big deal out of nothing....

You consider a breach of trust between a coach and player, not a big deal, I guess you're wired to let everything roll off your back. I f it was private, but to make it public show a lack of integrity.
I hope the other take of it being ahead is a possibility, but that doesn't make sense, being that Swayman has faced NCAA shooters for the last 3-4 weeks.
There's a reason guys have trouble coming in from the AHL or college. It's the speed of the game.

I stand by my comment, it was irresponsible and serves no purpose. Maybe Burn Book Baby is begging to start due to the pressure of all $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

Jacob and I are ready for the opener!!View attachment 913383View attachment 913384

Also wearing a bruins shirt today. I have a big meeting.

f*** ‘em. Add a blazer and it’s business casual.

 

[Orr Fourever]

Another season of Bruin hockey.
LFG Bruins.
Pucks in deep.

 

[Mad-Marcus]

I want to see this investment of size, speed, and weight to wreak havoc! LFG 3rd and 4th lines.
(Also, lets score a lot and stop the puck)

 

[lopey]

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

Agree but in playoffs it disappears

 

[DarrenBanks56]

doubleheader of frostbite softball tonite- so Ill be limping to the bar to catch the end of this one.

So it's not just the baseball playoffs that start too late into the fall! Under Armour Cold, brother!

I would rather some of these guy play over their heads when the playoffs start. Guys like Coyle and Zacha.

I think Brad will have a hard time reaching 20 goals playing with Coyle and Geekie if that's the line. Plus his health.

Even if Brad was in his prime, I don’t like the Coyle - Marchand combo . I don’t think they are a good fit chemistry wise. Brazeau has much better hockey sense than Geekie . He’d be the guy I would try with them but I’m not the coach so .

Both targets on the ice at the same time. Perfect. Two birds one stone for Zadorov.

Almost noon means the games going played and it's too late to cancel right?

Hope it's not as bad in Tampa area as expected.

Korpisalo was named the starter for game 1 before Swayman was signed. Most likely a ploy by management to let Sway know they were ready to move on without him.

Korpisalo's not a dope. He knows the situation. I'm sure there was more conversation than reported. Anyway, he's in no position to be complaining about anything.

 

[DarrenBanks56]

Hoping someone drops Bennett first shift

 

[rfournier103]

A new season is upon us. I’m working till 7, but I guess I’m as ready as I’ll ever be.

As usual on opening day I'm not getting much done at work

*Sigh*

I just can't see Swayman getting the nod with 0 pre-season action and maybe 1 practice.

Thinking there are going to be lots of disappointed posters here tonight.

 

[Alicat]

With all due respect to it being game one of the season, this will have to be the GDT.
