Denna Laing still believes in the Bruins, and so do I.

Just win tommorrow. If they want it enough, they'll win.

No question. Ottawa has the least amount of regulation/overtime wins among all playoff teams. Despite the injuries, the Bs can definitely beat the Sens. Could easily be up 3-1 instead of down 1-3. It comes down to how bad they want it, as you say.

I think there's still hope. There always is. It's the playoffs; anything can happen. Maybe it's the Sens' turn to get the injury bug.

OT losses are hard to take, but when two teams go to OT, one bounce can make the difference. Tuukka has been great, so even if the Bruins simply play well enough (again) to get to OT... who knows? They win this game, and then things aren't looking so bad.

I'll say one thing, whenever this offence/team has looked listless this season, they generally snapped out of it soon enough. A big game from Marchand, Bergeron, Pasta, Backes can make all the difference.

They haven't played their best against the Sens - that's the bad news... and maybe it's the good news, too.

Go Bruins!!

If the stars forwards show up maybe we have a chance

Not enough credit is given to Ottawa and their defensive system and their goalie. I am so tired of people saying they hope our star plauers show up! I've seen enough of our star forwards over the years to know that they are giving it one hundred and 10% without question. Anyone questioning their heart or their effort is quite simply wrong.

I don't question the stars heart or effort, I question their decision making

Gripping their sticks too tight, they just need to relax and play their game, and fire on Andersen every chance they get

Can someone start a place for a GDT for tonight - just so we can talk about it? Not sure if Fenway is available!

wait...is someone really arguing the legitimacy of the Phaneuf slashing call?

The majority of sens fans were saying the turris interference on Chara was BS. That was the first of the 2 penalties. They say if that one doesn't get called, then Phaneuf doesn't get called and the bruins don't score.

But both teams fans could spend hours playing the what if card.

Same old problem. We can get the puck out of our zone cleanly so the sens end up with it. Vicious cycle.

Sens are a really talented team IMO. They seem faster overall.

Bruce Cassidy told his players "The message for us is we need to win one in a row three times."

You know what that's more inspirational and sounds a lot better than "we need to win 3 in a row."

SEEMS MUCH MORE HOPEFUL WHEN IT'S SAID THIS WAY.

They are not a really talented team. They play the 1-3-1 to cover up a lot of their flaws, stop Karlsson, you stop the Sens. It's not hard to look fast when the Bruins are turning the puck over at center ice and the Sens already have 4 guys there ready to counterattack, they are going forward while our forwards have to reverse to try and get back. Stop turning the puck over and they suddenly don't look so fast.
