Lohrei continues to make the same mistakes over and over, I was hoping he would be getting a little better in reading the play by know.

Can't see him dressing in the playoffs if this continues
Better sit all their D then because they all do dumb crap over and over, that's why they can't get out of their zone. The play should be to the goalie as they are the only ones that can get it out with any regularity!

Not to rub it in, but when everyone was screaming and I fully understand back in training camp we need a top 6 center, I was screaming for defenseman , two if possible........That was the time to do it, even moving Ullmark and I am not saying he would have consented , but that was the time.......We will have to live with what we have and hope............
 
They were really good. I thought Boqvist was one of our best forwards all night.

I’m a little confused about Brazeau…never thought he was more than an AHL talent when I watched but he looks certainly capable at a higher level…can he maintain it is tbd

I also think he needs to add more to his game. His hands and vision are great but he needs a full offseason of speed training and boxing if he wants to stick around full time IMO.

Crazy to me someone at that size hasn’t added that physical part of his game yet..he would be a mainstay and crowd favorite pretty quickly here


I agree with this, but I will say that I have noticed him up that part (or at least try to) lately. It is mostly slower moving shoves or wrestling along the boards, but it's been effective IMO. I can't imagine it's not being encouraged, and being with a much smaller Lauko who tries to hit everything that moves probably has a positive effect? Hope so

This was a bridge yr so its been a really great season from that perspective.Alot of so called experts eating crow.Bruins will add parts in summer is my bet.Those bonus overages etc made things tougher too eating cap.
 
Roster thread:

Lohrei makes clueless pinches and Shattenkirk plays a 3-1 like a rookie forward, not a grizzled vet D.

The quicker we take Shattenkirk out (and replace him with Peeke) the better.

*edit: he's -3 in 9mins. Impressive!
I don't know how they can say they're embracing a grinding, defense first identity with those two in the lineup every night, Lohrei doesn't know how to play his position at an NHL level yet. Should be Wotherspoon and Peeke going forward.

Wotherspoon-Peeke is a terrible idea. It may happen due to injury or a day off or something but you don’t do it on purpose.

Correct the overages hurt more than many realize...........
 
What if $ was retained to make it an even swap $ wise for Ullmark?
No, that would not make a difference to me.
The Bruins value their centers to be defensively responsible and to do that you need to have a very good work ethic. That doesn't sound like PLD, and also his attitude could effect prospects like Lysell in a bad way. IMO
There are too many red flags for him to be a a Bruin.

PLD to play with Jake

Could be the first line, could be the 4th depending on the day

Depending on what Montgomery had for breakfast that day.

They should at least try Peeke.
