[MJF]

Naming rights change

So I was at the last game ever at Webster Bank Arena

Naming rights change

Too bad the name of the company wasn't "Mortgage Future".

Naming rights change

Can't we find a non-financial sponsor?

Pfizer already sponsors every TV show on the networks . . . why not The Viagra Arena?

"When you pull the goalie . . . we are there"

Side effects include main roster recall, empty net misses and lack of scoring . . .

Where do you guys watch Bridgeport games? I may need to start watching some now.

If BPT makes the playoffs, all you guys need to take the ferry over for round 1.

Lets blow the freaking roof off

If Bridgeport makes the playoffs and they have a weekend game I 100% would be down to go.

I'd go!

I’d like to submit “ Short Sale Arena” in honor of Ruslan Ishakov, Sebastian Aho, Thomas Hickey and Taylor Cammarata among others.

Don’t forget Anatoli Golyshev, the shortest of them all.

Could you guys imagine those Bridgeport players go from however many players show up to the games now to rabid Islanders fans ready to blow the roof off of their building for the playoffs

Jason Blake, Shawn Bates, Hubie McDonough, Rob Dimaio

We had several shots at taking his son in last summer's draft.

For what it's worth, the Carolina Hurricanes draft pick is 4th in USHL scoring with 62 points in 45 games and is headed to North Dakota next fall.

Don’t forget high sticking!

That’ll get you 2 minutes in the box. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

That's more than enough time for me…

Time to wrap up this topic or transfer it to the “Fantasy Sports” thread.

Bridgeport is 27th out of 31 AHL teams in points percentage.

They’re going golfing, not to the playoffs.

It’s not that far fetched. The top 6 teams in each division make the playoffs. BPT is out of the last playoff spot.

Tonight they are in Providence and through 2 periods they hung a big number on the Bruins. They lead 6-3 with 20 minutes to go.

3 points out of the last playoff spot.

Bought the AHL package and loving every minute of it. If they play Skarek 80% the rest of the season they make it. Next years team with Dufour and Raty should be explosive.

I didn’t know the playoff format so thanks for the info.

6 out of 8 teams in the division is quite the low bar. In any event, I hope they make it. Post season experience is always a good thing.

Bridgeport figured out their scoring too

 

[ALEXIVICH CHULKATURI]

Need to go 12-4 the rest of the way. Not sure if Bookie takes AHL action but bet big against us tomorrow. Baby Bruins will be looking for revenge and I’m afraid that Schneider will be between the pipes tomorrow. Unpopular opinion coming here but the 2022 nhl draft might have to be defenseman heavy. Other than Bolduc who at best is a #3 defenseman we have nothing in the minors. As for wingers Holmstrom, Durandeau And Kouivula will all be solid third liners. Our farm system is b-a-r-e... But hey 2 eastern conference finals. No regrets here and hopefully we get lucky with Dufour and Raty.

Must have been a weird game. B-Isles have had loads of trouble with Providence the last few years. I wish I had watched this one.

 

[ALEXIVICH CHULKATURI]

Ok didn’t see this coming. Don’t want to jinx but I think they’ll make the playoff. That’s a darn good baby bruins they are embarrassing at there own home.

[DerekKingSnipes]

They’re playing a lot better, veteran players are producing and they are getting contributions from the younger ones. The issue they have is too many vets that they sit a guy like Terry some nights.

 

[Chapin Landvogt]

Holmstrom had 3 points in yesterday's 7-4 victory.

In general, he has 1-5-6 in the last four games.
