GDT: Boston Bruins at Ottawa Senators - 3PM - CBC/SN - This Game is for Points, Four Points Edition

[Knave]

That was a fun game. Definitely rough when the Bruins got back in it and took the lead but you need to have lows to appreciate the highs of scoring 2 goals with the goalie pulled and then winning it in the shootout.

that's for all the soft "fans" in this thread.

calling "game over" in the first.

calling out every single error as if it's indicative of some sort of lack of character.


giving up at the first opportunity and every opportunity after that.



Honest to god, if the team was as fidgety as the fans, they would never win a shift.


looking forward to all the "great teams know how to never quit" posts.

Games unfold as they do; You have to ride the waves.

super happy for the win.

Need big losses by CLB, MON and DET

Cheering for the Leafs eh?

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

This game reminds me of the game Boston scored 2 goals in last 3 minutes with goalie pulled 7-8 years ago and it started their run towards excellency.

That was something special, by the boys.

 

[Silky Johnson]

Statement win.

 

[Senscore]

Kastelic 4.5% Corsi. He's still on the team.

I thought we played like shit for most of the game and I was disgusted by that. But credit is due for the comeback. Well done boys.

 

[Sensrule]

Would have preferred to see Tkachuk instead of Giroux in the shootout. If he scored, might have been a sign of things to come in future games

 

[Rodzilla]

Okay Norris I forgive you for your dumb penalty!

Man Leevi moves so well out there

What an entertaining game!

No thanks, lol.

 

[DackellDuck]

That was just an awesome win and 3 hours of great entertainment!

 

[SpezDispenser]

Unreal!!

Best play in years

Which play?

 

[Senovision]

Matinpalo, Merilainen, Ostapchuk
Serbrango the other day
Nice to see the farm team players starting to appear and look good. It's good depth

 

[Dionysus]

At work, so haven't been watching but how the heck did we score 2 goals with the goalie pulled, when we haven't scored one in like a decade?

One was early off of some great pressure. Second goal was some good battles to keep it in, and finally some composure. Claude with the patience to find Norris in the slot.

Sanderson also blocked two empty net attempts.

 

[Silky Johnson]

Nice to get the 2 points...but man, this team really has some holes.

That's your takeaway? Do you like hockey?

Kastelic 4.5% Corsi. He's still on the team.

Still playing for the Sens. Gotta love it.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

I hope Meri plays instead. We need another Win!

I think today was proof he needs a break. He did ok but it wasn't at the level we've seen play the last 5 games. Give Forsberg a shot and hope he doesn't crap the bed.

Batherson sleepwalked through the whole game. I would have had someone else shoot for him.

I would say that this team just needs to learn to keep pushing the pace. Kind of let off the gas there for a while. Also, Boston got some lucky power plays, considering how terribly they were interfering with the Senators at every turn.

Hustle; dominated Boston's players 6 on 5! Shooting Gallery plays. Desperate measures!

Yep. No potential stars, but some solid role players coming up.

Leevi, who knows. Goalies are so tough to predict. His demeanor ability to read the play are awesome.

 

[Silky Johnson]

I thought we played like shit for most of the game and I was disgusted by that. But credit is due for the comeback. Well done boys.

5 goals and 45 shots.

 

[SpezDispenser]

I f***ing love this team!

This has to be the biggest comeback we've seen in years. What a finish. Unbelievable.

You know what I need to say to that, of course:

 

[Cosmix]

We played like shit after scoring the first two goals; not for the entire game. I was disappointed that the team gave up so many 2 on 1s and breakaways. There were some stupid plays by both Fs and Ds.

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

Statement win.

Seems like there's been a lot of these recently. Great win by the boys.
