Lot of players I won't miss next season. Marchand and pasta need to be better. McAvoy is amazing. Tuukka played well.

If the d was healthy is be pissed but right now I'm just disappointed

They need to do something to try add a spark to this lethargic offense. I've seen enough of Dom Moore,Nash Accari as the top line.

For the next game I would like to see Cehlarik, and Blidh. This nonsense of playing Krejci (he may be injured if not he stinks), Schaller (looks slowed by his recent injury), Spooner (a total waste of space).

I'm not sure if there is any more that could go wrong from game 80 until now.

Nevermind, I really like CMac. This is the only thing I'm taking out of this post season that I can't wait to see more of next year.

Well, 1 more game to go til the clubs come out. It was do or die the way this team is right now.

Does Bergeron have more than a couple years as a top center left? Chara is gone, but he has been more of a liability lately.

They'll both likely still be here for another 2 years. Both at diminished capacity, but both still pretty effective. Bergeron just garnered his 6th Selke nomination; he's got several years left. Gotta hope for our prospects to pan out and it would be nice if DS was able to make a good deal for an off season veteran acquisition and not get hosed again.

Disappointing.

Rask has been fine. Possibly the best player tonight. Made some big saves.

The D, oddly, is holding their own, despite being depleted.

Our star forwards just aren't getting it done. An injured Krejci isn't helping. Bergeron and Marchand have been stymied. Pasta was fighting the puck all night. Backes has been better, but still not enough of a factor tonight. Spooner might as well stick to the PP.

The lunch-bucket guys are at least playing respectably. Acciari had another goal tonight that would have counted before the Coach's Challenge era.

It's not over yet. But I don't know what the answer is. Release the Beleski? Hayes?
Move Backes to centre?

Marchand had his chances tonight and it looked like he was ready to break thru. Anderson had his best game of the series.

The Sen's actually switched things up in the NZ a lot. Sometimes they would have a 2-2-1 and the next Bruins possession, they would do their usual 1-3-1. It confused the Bruins attack which had found a way thru the trap Monday night.

Win or lose Friday, we need our guys to show a lot more urgency. And Pasta needs to find a way to stop handling the puck like a grenade with the pin out.

Yes, he was certainly missed but don't think he would be a difference maker in the series with such poor performances from just about all of the forwards .

He would have made their job easier. Wouldn't fix everything but in a series where every game has been a one goal game I think he would have helped the offense get going.

They can't get out of their zone with speed. The D passes the puck up to forwards standing on the blue line, or they shoot the puck up from inside their own face off circle to nobody. Chara is over worked and making Dumb decisions. All Spooner's passes are bouncers that you can't get. 4 Bruins around the puck and 1 senator comes out with it. There is ZERO BREAKOUT SPEED. This team right now is Embarrassing. They back off the senators when they enter the zone like scared children. This teams problems are all about the defence, or lack there of. Offence starts with the D controlling the puck and the D starting the breakout. Ours is a #@%$!@'# mess.

What's pissing me off the most about this post season is we got the most beatable team we could've drawn. Guess that says a lot about us.

Time to drop Spooner and insert belesky. Spooner does 0.


I also find McAvoy shy on the pp. He doesn't move the puck very nicely when on there.
