Post-Game Talk: bruins @ RANGERS

[will1066]

Just finishing 2nd period here, and loving it! I told you guys this game would be rough AND was looking for a similar result as prior Islanders game. We are taking it TO THEM thus far, and really could be a helluva lot BIGGER lead than it is.

P.S. I hope this doesnt jinx my prediction. But, I somehow dont think so. We GOT THIS.

BTW, Stromer is playing a helluva game.

Spoiler: we win

Looked like Marchand cross checks Lindgren in the face/head area while Lindgren was on the ice

Just wanted to confirm Sam did in fact say Kakko is not experiencing any symptoms still and is just in quarantine. He could be back soon. That is what he said during the broadcast

Yeah sounds like he tested positive though.

Steve Valiquette stealing our talking points again

Valiquette is doing so well IMO, it's nice to see!

Strome is gonna have another .8-.9 ppg season again isn’t he?

Why wouldn't he?

Hopefully we can get a taker

yes he has it

Ryan Lindgren is a g-unit

You know he loved sticking it to the team that gave up on him.

scary that the bruins are still this good despite giving up so much in recent years it seems.

He’s a great talking head.

See and this right here is why I want Gauthier to get more minutes. Another guy in that same mold is intimidating for d-men

I’ve been impressed with him even when he doesn’t score. He uses his body well on offense. Maybe defense has been poor but i do think Quinn is showing more confidence in him lately.

 

[Kovalev27]

ALOT of hockey coming up here now barring any Covid issues. They’re about to go into a real rhythm of games.

I'm so happy with this new concept of going to the net, honestly.

Even Lemieux drove beautifully to the net. Would be great if we had multiple guys doing that, will create more chances.

 

[DudMan28]

Which time?

Good point. I think Pasta got him good once too.

 

[eco's bones]

I thought Georgiev had a very good night in net. Fox and Lindgren were awesome--though I'd give the edge to Lindgren in this one. I don't think the Rangers appreciated Marchand trying to pick a fight with Fox and they had considerable pushback in this one. Miller and Hajek played well and Smith and Johnson did their jobs too.

Gauthier with the seeing eye cannon. Lafreniere with the great pass to Strome--I thought it one of Alexis's better games. Blackwell with the wicked power play deflection--Strome picking up an assist on what really was a play made by Fox and then another assist off of Kreider's lucky goal. Strome had a lucky night IMO. Kreider only had that one shot but he played well--was moving his feet all night long. Buchnevich with the easy tap in on another great assist by Fox and then Brodzinski diving to tap in a really nice play by Rooney. Of the pointless forwards they all played well enough. I liked Lemieux in this one. I was hoping that Mika would get on the board but it didn't happen. Still he played well. DiGiusppe with his usual forechecking game and Howden somewhat quiet but he didn't hurt us.

 

[Machinehead]

I think Pastrnak is still in the air

Yes imagine if they had Lindgren, Miller and Barzal which certainly would have been possible.

That's what I saw too.

Yep. The entire NHL is Something crazy like 56 games next week.

 

[bl02]

That's what I saw too.

Guy is An amazing player but such a rat. Cross checks a guy in the head face area and complains about getting only two minutes lol

The legend of Phil Di Giuseppe goes on

Sam dropped some nuggets for us during the game..

Kakko is asymptomatic, just waiting for the negative tests.

He mentioned Chytil back against Buffalo. I do not know if he just misspoke or that's the teams intent, to have Chytil take a couple more practices/days to get up to speed and play Tuesday.
