Goalies have inflated their win total. Losses are good. Now the FO can’t sit on their hands. Team has holes. Team has weaknesses. Team also has a handful of passengers. They are not built for the playoffs. They don’t have those kind of players in AHL. So if FO wants to get out of first round it should be spending their time on the road scouting
Only two things matter during the regular season:
1)having enough points to make the PO's
2)being fairly healthy going into the PO's.
BRUINS proved last season with an exclamation point that just being the best during the regular season means "jack shit.' Especially now, when half the league(it's all about money) qualifies for the PO's.

BTW, if having the best regular season record means 'jack shit,' then it follows that the President's Cup means 'jack shit.'
Is this sarcasm?

Carlo made mistakes today and yesterday that cost goals.Thats hockey.Next week he could be a Beast...
Yet he was a +2 according to Jack.
I don't know about the Bruins being frauds, but there are definitely frauds in this board.

We're spoiled
Canes are 11-8 and let in 8 yesterday
Devils are 8-9-1
Leafs 10-5-3
Florida 12-7-1
stars 12-5-2
etc.
Good teams lose. They have problems, none of these teams are perfect. I wouldn't be confident entering the PO today but they're a good team that is going to lose games and have some bad outings

They've actually exposed their weaknesses most of the season. The goalies were very effective providing a smoke screen.
Sweeney knew the team got kicked around in the FL series. The only "grit" he could afford with the cap situation was Looch and that definitely would have helped, but is a moot point now, and other teams are taking advantage of this.
I also wonder how much that is weighing on the Bruins' minds too, he is a good friend of a lot of them, it has to be devastating. I am not saying it is an excuse for them losing or anything like that, but they are all human.

Let’s see how they respond to a two game losing streak.
Adversity was missing last year.

Well, they are not as bad as many thought they would be. And they are not as good as many were lead to believe.
Great goaltenders, very good defense; however forward ranks are a work in progress.
In a long season and until addressed that weakness will be occasionally exposed. But we knew this going in ... center and toughness/intimidation factor. The question is: between now and the playoffs what will be done to address this?

It would be nice if Looch was given another chance and allowed to play after his next court appearance in January or whenever he's able to rejoin the team
It would give the boys a boost heading into the backstretch

Only saw the first. The final score doesn’t surprise me. That was no-focus pond hockey through and through. From both teams judging by the first alone.
I’ll be back this week and hopefully the team is as well!

He looked good in the Tampa game. I’d say Zacha looked particularly weak that game especially on the dot. Pasta is the least of my concerns right now. Hard to get on him when he’s #3 in points in the league.
