I don’t know how anyone that understands hockey can look at that second line and say the bruins front office is in the top 30, let alone top 5 lol

Crazy, almost like they looked at the team over a time period to make the list and not randomly on Oct 22, 2024

Do people find any fault with losing to underdogs Carolina, Philly, Washington, Montreal, St Louis, Islanders and Florida x 1 during the past fifteen years in the playoffs? They’ve had some great runs and fantastic success October to April but imo overall they have come up short IMO

 

[DKH]

I’m ready for a full rebuild

Florida model looks good but 7 yrs of DNQP may be a couple years to much

15 years ~ 12 top fifteen picks but get a , Ekblad 1, Barkov 2, Huberdeau 3.

Prune all the pink hat Bruins fans

Let’s see who are the real fans who show up thru thin and thick

15 years is wayyyyy to long but 4 or 5 years with a couple of top picks like the Devils

Let the tank begin

Yup

Basically string us a long

The Leafs at least don’t drain our money and emotions

I’d rather be a Leafs fan since 1973 even if it means giving up 2011

The referees hated Vancouver

Had they called penalties I doubt Bruins win series

I loved it but let’s be honest it was sketchy watching the way refs let things go

Lots of fault, but don't they also deserve lots of praise for pulling off underdog victories as well?

Vault with who, exactly?

Or praise for being that good for that long?

Since 2007-08 their worst season was 2009-10, when they went 39-30-13.

Which underdog victories would those be? They've been the higher seed in every postseason series victory since Sweeney took the job.

They had underdog wins against the Caps in 2021 and Carolina in 2020. Lou specifically mentioned the last 15 years and that also includes underdog wins against Pittsburgh in 2013, Philly and Vancouver in 2011 and Buffalo in 2008.

what series have they won as an underdog the past decade though? They were decent at it early but now they lose to teams they should and lose to teams they shouldn't. Do you feel this team has succeeded when it's matter during this GM's tenure?

Vault with who, exactly?

people putting together the teams, players and coaches. Chiarelli accomplished more than Sweeney but was fired quicker. He was allowed one coaching change. Players have been held accountable. Charlie Jacobs says himself Bruins success is measured in cups, but what is the threshold in attempts?

There is definitely something to be said for a management group that assembles teams that have a chance year after year.

Absolutely. 2019 Tampa and 2023 Bruins were absolute locks for the Cup - their both out in April. Then you have Covid Habs and Blues of 2019. Get in the playoffs . . .anything can happen

But presently, there aren't pennies to spare - right up against the Cap.

P-Bruins? Anyone there on the Big Club roster in a few years?

Last night on the there was:
Brad-Lindholm-Pasta
Mac-Lindholm

and I'd rather see the Beecher line with Mason L and Peeke

Monty reminds me of Daboll with the NY Giants. Both had instant success (out of this world goaltending) . . .well my Jints (Saquon Barkley) were more relative success. But without coaching saving play of a few, the style, plan, and methods going forward . . .seem . . .unsound.

 

[BigGoalBrad]

Front office puts the team in position every year they just choke it it's not Toronto.

I think Boston is one of the easier jobs in many ways guys want to play here but we'll never be able to reload with multiple top 5 picks.

Being too p***y to send someone like Carlo or Coyle packing because their family will be upset is my only real gripe. No trades means no accountability and no motivation. Forget about selling high ever as well.
