GDT: broons versus hooricanes

[AD Skinner]

They straight stole this game. So awesome

 

[HisIceness]

TT is on his way to becoming a great player for us.

 

[Dishface]

They finally learned how to play 3 on 3. Good job boys.

 

[Joe McGrath]

TT! Lindy,Faulk, and Staal all multipoint nights.

Did Skinner see the ice in OT? I don't think i saw him. That's odd.

Bruins homer announcers are practically in tears

 

[Roboturner913]

this team is amazing

 

[Neighbor Lee]

Wow! Great comeback. And weren't the Canes physical tonight.

 

[Anton Babchuk]

he's been a huge turnover machine in 3 on 3 and i can't remember him ever scoring or even getting an assist (though i'm probably wrong). he only saw one shift the last OT game as well IIRC.

 

[HisIceness]

Maybe there is some magic in this group after all. They would have lost this game last year 3-0.

 

[Wild Caniac]

what a great come from behind win that was.

Seriously!

Second game of a back to back, where the first game was on the road, after a 5-day layoff and right before a holiday break? And you go down 2-0 early? This had 4-0 or 5-0 written all over it.

Credit to ward for being pretty good in the first two periods.

Ward turning back into a real live NHL goalie has been such a huge help. He was rock solid in this game

I just believe, like I do in Santa. You have some serious Harry Potter in you. Comebacks are fun.

I'm sure hoping Ward can have a back half of his career like Tim Thomas did. I think we are seeing what Wardo could of been if we hadn't constantly iced one of the worst defenses in the league for 7-8 straight seasons.

i believe

comeback magic

 

[raynman]

A victory over the Brooins is my favorite kind of victory.

 

[Carolinas Identity*]

we win gaem??

WE WIN GAEM!

Too bad it wasn't a victory against the Patriots, that would have been just swell.

 

[DaveG]

I love comeback magic.

 

[Brock Anton]

haha bruins

37 points in 33 games projects to about 92 points at season's end.

But if you take out October, which can be argued as not really being representative of the way the team has played overall, and assume we play the rest of the season roughly about as good as we have since the start of November (31 points in the last 25 games, so a 1.24 point per game pace) we end up with 97 or 98 points (depending on whether you want to round it down or up).

I mean, that's pretty damn good, right? I don't see any reason this team right now could not continue playing at that pace. Especially considering the schedule is very home-friendly, owing to all the road games early in the season.

If this team doesn't make the playoffs with 97 or 98 points, that's frustrating as hell, but that's still a really good season.
