It’s a trap!

 

[aylib]

Boston got gutted at the deadline, their squad looks pretty thin

 

[DaBolts]

Crush them.

Or give up 10 goals to some no-name Providence players we've never heard of.

 

[BoltSTH]

Is Hedman definitely out?

 

[Master P]

Huh, well that sure is a neat looking blanket.

 

[Rschmitz]

Is Hedman definitely out?

Excellent question

 

[StammerHammer]

Boston got gutted at the deadline, their squad looks pretty thin

So of course you know what that means?

Go Bolts!!!!

 

[Stormbreaker]

Huh, well that sure is a neat looking blanket.

Brady Tkachuk to TB confirmed, only a matter of time!

 

[Master P]

Brady Tkachuk to TB confirmed, only a matter of time!

Battle of Florida would be even better.

 

[AlwaysSunnyInTampa]

Huh, well that sure is a neat looking blanket.

Lmao I didn't see you share this. I shared it twice already. My sides are still hurting from the laughter

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Boston doesn't have anyone except Pasta left on the team? Yeah, We Gon' Lose.

 

[gn2007]

Just waiting on heddy news but play smart and simple we will win. As coach says let's go get it boys!

 

[Konnan511]

Let's go Bolts! Going to the game with 8 Bruins fans. Wish me luck and patience.

 

[Felonious Python]

Today's game is on ABC/ESPN+, so unlike games on regular ESPN, this game is actually on ESPN+. No regional blackout.

 

[Brie]

Another earlier game, let's keep going. Looking forward to seeing Yanni och Björkstrand.

Let's go Bolts!

 

[BowB4Bolts]

Excellent question

Unbelievable that nobody knows (apparently) what's going on w Heddy.
Yes, that includes me too!

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Blow them out as payback for these bullshit trades.

 

[Stammertime91]

Let's go Bolts! Going to the game with 8 Bruins fans. Wish me luck and patience.

That's 50% of their remaining fanbase.

 

[Felonious Python]

I don't get the criticism directed against Boston for trading guys to their own division.

If you think they're going to tear it all down, why wouldn't they make it easier on themselves to get a lottery pick?

They could have traded to a million other playoff teams not in the division.

So what is there not to get? For the deals they got they could have easily gotten it from outside the division as well.

If we're assuming that the Bruins are tearing it all down, the idea is to get a good draft pick, and they play teams within their division the most often; more losses = better draft position.

They were always going to get better draft position even if they traded to outside the division because Us/Leafs/Panthers are going to the playoffs.

Then it seems like it doesn't really matter if they traded within their division or not.

 

[LightningStrikes]

Well thanks for the update, coach.
