Bruin fan since 1975
these are the games the team MUST win if it wants to get a playoff spot... but honestly florida is a hot mess. we really cant use this as a measuring stick
I'm happy for rask to get a well deserved shutout... I have him in all 8 of my espn fantasy leagues and lately his season stats have been falling behind dubnyk/bobvosky/price.. for my money id take rask over these guys and I do hope he gets the numbers to make the case for a vezina {even though it will make it much harder to get him in next years fantasy drafts}
happy to see marchand pop 2... hes a streaky scorer... always has been... getting him on a streak right now could be very important if we wanted to move into a solid playoff spot
backes coming back is a big deal. hes always been a better second half player than a first half player... but honestly his first half hasn't been so bad considering krecji has struggled... theres been some injuries... being on pace for over 20 goals and being this good defensively... bringing the grit and leadership... hes given us as much as Eriksson would have for sure.
I fear carlo has looked a lot more average the past 10-15 games... but I think that was always to be expected. I think he surprised everyone the first 20-25 games of this season. none of us had him penciled in to be a top pairing dman when training camp broke this year. but if carlo is settling into being a pretty good second pair very strong shut down dman when all is said and done... that does make me wonder if we should sell high on him when memories of that outstanding play are still fresh in everyones mind.
I'm reminded of kyle McLaren's career bluepath... nick boyntons... weve seen other kid dman come in and impress us in their rookie year and then turn out to be rather average second pair type guys after that.
overall a needed win... but keep it in perspective I think. there wasn't a lot to learn from this victory because the competition sucked. we need to see a 3-4-5 game win streak now if we want to really feel comfortable on the bandwagon

Quiet PGT today
GDTs are quiet this year. I hope posters return.
Most who post here are good fans. I just don't see that the coach has lost the team and think he s a very good coach. I remember how bad it was before he came.

I want Julien to stay, and my guess is the team does too.
The way this season has gone, it would have been easy for the Bruins to play down to the Panthers' level tonight. In fact, they tried at the beginning.
So we take the two points and hope for an even better effort tomorrow. I wonder if Rask will start again.

OMG... Wowwowowoowowwowowowowowowo BRUINS
My building lost power before the game and just came back on now.
I didn't see a second of the game.

Much-needed win in a mostly stress-free setting (no risk of blowing it at the end).
I caught some of the Panthers' game against Nashville the night before, and there were lots of empty seats (even on Jagr commemorative t-shirt night).
Not as many vacant seats tonight, so I imagine the B's drew well.
The Florida announcers expressed a little surprise/disdain for the Bruins putting their top power play line on the ice late in the game up 4-0. But they also suggested Julien was wanting to kick-start slumping stars, like Bergeron.
They also wondered if the hard Panther clearing attempt into the Bruins' bench was deliberate because of this.

Rask posts a shutout, Bruins win.
I'm glad we won. But we still haven't solved the dilemma of how to win without Rask or having him stand on his head. Yes he is stealing us some points this season, but you can't ride him until he breaks.
Rask needs a Deputy in net for when he's resting, he will need some rest... right?
Great game by Marchy. Can our offense revive? We've lost like 3, 4 games in a row and then the Bruins give you a little bit of hope with a nice win before pulling the rug from under your feet again.

Nice win even though Panthers are not playing that well..Great to see Marchand net a couple. I hope he goes on a tear like he did around this time last season, team really needs something like that, especially now that Pasta is in a mini slump. Carlo played the least minutes of all defencemen tonight but that might have something to do with playing again tomorrow, less than 24 hours apart.
I cant remember the last time the Bruins had this many more games played than most everyone else. Usually it's the other way around. Playing a mess of games in March and being beat out by seasons end.
With Leafs and Sens losing in regulation, standings look great with Bruins now in 2nd place. I believe its the 1st time this season they were 2nd in division. But again, where everyone has 3 or 4 games in hand on the B's, its crucial to keep winning. This is usually their March schedule so get as many points as you can.. Another 2 points tomorrow will go a long way, especially with so many teams in our division slumping. Tampa was expected to be a frontrunner for 1st in conference but they're just not getting the goaltending and with Stammer out, it has to affect that team..

Is this another season sweep of a divisional rival?
Edit, just read above, one more game at home, please sweep them, I hate that team. Ps, the fact that the writer said 'March 1, at Boston Garden" is everything that is wrong with this team being in the league, idiots.
Watching that Panthers feed recap was awesome. Potvin is such a bitter bitter SOB. And the other guy, Goldstein is it? Insufferable. I know Jack has been called a homer since forever, but hes actually excited by other teams scoring goals cos he loves hockey, this puke, like the Avs caller, like the Pens caller, literally doesnt even bother. Neither of these guys should be calling games, they suck!
**** Florida I nearly dislike them as much as the loser point kings Detroit.

That was a really good game by the Bruins. Hope they can find some consistency and go on a really needed winning streak.
The Panthers feed is terrible, what a bunch of losers those two are.
