Boston Bruins (A1) vs Florida Panthers (WC2) - | Series Tied 3-3

[Fire Sweeney]

Speaking of crowd noise, how cringe was it when the crowd started singing to Bon Jovi and the Panthers immediately scored

What's really cringe is not stopping playing the Bongiovi crap 30 years ago

 

[WaitingForThatCab]

Panther fans are shitting on Barkov? Wtf, unfrigginbelievable.

He's definitely not been good in this series.

 

[Laus723]

He's definitely not been good in this series.

Neither have his linemates, though. Duke has been awful, Reinhart has done little, it’s two games.

 

[Ratsreign]

He's definitely not been good in this series.

I think he went 11 for 16 on face offs last night, set up Montour’s go ahead goal and his screen in front is the only reason Ullmark missed it. Of course we all know there’s more he can bring, but a lot of what he does goes unnoticed by many.

Anthony Duclair is completely useless at doing anything but scoring off the rush, and has been healthy scratched in every playoff series he's been a part of since joining the Panthers.

This isn't really saying anything.

Except that he’s on Barkov’s line.

Game 2 was the perfect time for the Bruins to do a Toronto Maple Leafs impersonation. Back to war game 3

I wonder when the stomach bug will start ripping through the Florida locker room? You'd have to think it's inevitable with supposedly how many Bruins had it

 

[MPGA]

If Bergeron comes back, Lomberg will just strangle him

 

[Horton Hears A Woo]

Bruins were on a 9 game winning streak, they were due to lose one and anyway they weren't beating Florida in 4

For real. Everyone overreacting to a team losing one game out of ten is just nuts. Florida played like garbage game one. They played a lot better game two. Bruins need to show up they are the better team

 

[Lilou]

I'm not surprised the bruins once again avoided a suspension. I can't think of another team that has received as much preferential treatment.

Florida had their own stomach illness going around a few weeks ago. Bob got sick and hasn’t played since.

He’s better now but Lyon decided to be a boss

Panthers were by miles the better team in game one. It was much closer game two.

 

[Coach Parker]

Well...

I must say I've found the Bruins' crowd very quiet in the first two games. And I'm not talking when the Panthers has 6-2 lead. But when the score was close, very quiet crowd. I wasn't expecting that.

Next game, you're going to see a much more noisy crowd in Florida if Panthers take an early lead.



Well...At least yours is sick/injuried. Ours is just being himself, which is not captain material.

I'm curious to see how many Bruins fans managed to get tickets to the game. I also heard it was cheaper to fly to Florida, get a hotel and tickets than it was to get tickets in Boston so could be an interesting crowd. Nothing like NYR NJ but I could see 1000 or so Bruins fans scoring tickets.

I think the state of Florida has more former Bostonians than Boston has current Bostonians. They'll be well represented I'm sure.

Maybe FLA avoids it because their players don't lick other people.

Not cheaper to fly to FLA during this week as it's Mass. school vacation week and they always hike the prices up more. If they were playing in the 2nd round it would be a lot cheaper.

 

[Panteras]

He's definitely not been good in this series.

And every other series before that…

I think he went 11 for 16 on face offs last night, set up Montour’s go ahead goal and his screen in front is the only reason Ullmark missed it. Of course we all know there’s more he can bring, but a lot of what he does goes unnoticed by many.

That’s the least he can do as our “allstar superstar captain”… the man has 1 goal in what? 16 playoff games..Bennett just came off an injury and made a noticeable impact on our team the minute the puck dropped.

Actually, it tells a lot about how bad Barkov has been when all you can say is that he’s good at screening the goalie and he « set up » a play on a goal.

Sounds like you’re talking about a 4th line player.

 

[pb1300]

Not that it matters because the Bruins are great on the road but Florida's crowd and in general Miami sports crowds are rather pathetic. So expect a huge advantage for the B's in that favor in this series too.

Bruins crowd is almost the gold standard while the Panthers crowd is on the opposite end of the spectrum.

This is such a shitty post. Panthers crowd is fantastic, WTF are you talking about?

This needs a like and hearts

What games did you watch? Bruins played solid in the first and third in game one. They absolutely got outplayed in just about every way in game two. Not that it takes much when you show up with zero effort

[HockeyVirus]

Bruins fans didn't want to listen and laughed at my thread about how they can't play that way for 82 and then 16 playoff wins. They are in big trouble tonight...BIG trouble

 

[Il Stugotz]

I would also pass on a trip to Florida tbh

 

[Pi]

I am pleasantly surprised by the Panthers. I saw the way they played Tampa last year and thought it was going to go the same but I have to say that they have been the better team through 2 games.

Lyon made some great saves in the first but also gave up stinkers which caused them to lose that one but it didn't faze them and they destroyed the Bruins in the second game.

This one is huge, I really feel that the winner of this game will win the series.

100% - game two was ALL Panthers.
