Anyone know what kind of knee surgery Hall needs in the offseason? That's a serious bummer.
I am sick of seeing head shots to Bergy and want someone (not named Brad Marchand) to take care of this .Today’s Globe:
Long weekend
Patrice Bergeron took the weekend off. He was at home resting what Montgomery called “nagging” injuries of the upper- and lower-body varieties. He will have six days to recover before Thursday’s game against Toronto.
The 37-year-old captain has been knocked around by players on lesser teams recently. He took a cross-check to the ear from Columbus’s Lane Pederson on Thursday and was knocked down by a late hit from Montreal’s Rem Pitlick the week before. Both incidents drew a fist-flying response from the Bruins.
“He got the cross-check,” Montgomery said, “and he’s been dealing with some upper- and lower-body issues we’d like to give him some rest on.”
In Bergeron’s absence, Pavel Zacha took over as the No. 1 center and recorded three assists. It was another chance for the 25-year-old, acquired last July with an eye on a post-Bergeron and post-David Krejci future, to prove himself as a future bedrock.
Which is why there is a place for fighting in hockey. Not Flyers goon lunacy from the mid-70’s……both of those games where Patrice got nailed were nothing games but players weren’t afraid to take a shot. The Bruins pushed back as you say, which should send a message to other teams. But the fact teams think they can do it speaks more to the way the game is now vs anything else. Hope he is ok and the extra rest helps get him ready for the post season. The guy is simply a warrior! (…….aaaaaaaaand a beautiful human being! LOL!)I am sick of seeing head shots to Bergy and want someone (not named Brad Marchand) to take care of this .
Hall skating with out the no contact jersey. Must be close. Tomorrow night?
Looks like he is doubtful for tomorrow night.

I knew something was "off" with Pasta right away (pregame skate). No smiles at all which is not normal for him.Also Todays Globe:
The Bruins’ top sniper, David Pastrnak, might have little to play for over the next week. But even with a bout of a stomach bug, Pastrnak took to the ice on Thursday — and put Boston on the brink of hockey history.
After assuring Jim Montgomery that his internal fortitude was suitable for game action, Pastrnak rewarded his coach by rifling home his 57th goal of the season — his sixth tally in the last five games.
“I can’t give him enough credit for how he willed himself to help us tonight,” Montgomery said. “He was not at his 100 percent level. He was battling a stomach virus and I give him full credit for helping us win this hockey game.”
The Bruins avoided both insult and injury during their final regular-season bout with Toronto.
Charlie McAvoy was pulled from the game with 9:32 left in the second period after colliding with Patrice Bergeron. Boston ruled him out for the remainder of the contest, with Montgomery noting postgame that his removal was for “precautionary reasons”.
Pasta has little to play for? You think he doesn’t want 60? (I don’t care what he says)Also Todays Globe:

Bring the entire ahl squad if you have too. Playoffs are more important though I want that record broken . Very tough decisions.
At this point I think the entire Bruins Organization do as well.Bring the entire ahl squad if you have too. Playoffs are more important though I want that record broken . Very tough decisions.
Its tricky when I saw Charlie hit the boards I almost threw up my jalapeno doritos.At this point I think the entire Bruins Organization do as well.
Pasta is absolutely going to play. There are only 22 NHL players with 60+ goals in a season. Soon there will be 23. Pasta is the one guy that is not going to sit. He wants to be in elite company, no doubt. Legend.Pasta has little to play for? You think he doesn’t want 60? (I don’t care what he says)
I mean he got his contract and is set so I'd imagine now he is focusing on the bigger picture than 60 goals.Pasta has little to play for? You think he doesn’t want 60? (I don’t care what he says)
