Post-Game Talk: Bruins Squander Late Lead: Senators 6 Bruins 5 SO; B’s now outside playoff structure

[Boston Bandit]

Realistically What teams could the B's beat in a 7 game series

Possibly the New England Patriots

 

[Dr Hook]

Realistically What teams could the B's beat in a 7 game series

The Sharks. Probably.

 

[LouJersey]

Realistically What teams could the B's beat in a 7 game series

If they got the Swayman vs Toronto series last year they could beat anyone. Not sure it's possible tho

 

[Maine Fan]

Playoffs?????

Let's Go Bruins

 

[NeelyOrr]

If each period was 19 minutes long instead of 20, the BRUINS would have a much better record.

 

[NeelyOrr]

I don't know if Marchy has ever fully recovered from blowing that breakaway chance against Florida that would have won that 2022-2023 playoff series 4 games to 1.
Blowing that chance obviously changed everything.

 

[NeelyOrr]

The Washington Commanders added one player that turned their current season around. Unfortunately, the BRUINS didn't.

 

[NeelyOrr]

I'd love to see a Commanders/Ravens Super Bowl. Daniels vs Jackson.

C

Wotherspoon gives the team emotion. Not sure what Carlo or Zadorov do.

Carlo is a useless tool and I'm getting sick of watching him flailing around on the ice after falling down for no reason or looking for his stick he dropped for no reason! 4.1 million for this and you guys think Lindholms contract is bad, give me a break! Been a Bs fan for 60 years and this is the first time I'm longing for seasons end and don't care if we're in the POs.

 

[Troublesome 85]

saw they had 11 shots in the second sheeesh

team needs to sell sell sell!!!!!!!

Bruins allow two goals in final four minutes, lose to Senators in shootout

The Bruins dropped a game to the Senators on Saturday that could carry significant postseason implications. Read more on Boston.com.

[Coach Parker]

Didn't realize we are at game 81 or 82. If you want to bail on this team now, go for it, but I don't care what they look like, I will believe they have a chance to be in the playoffs until they are eliminated. They have had uglier seasons than this and no one was jumping ship.

Like I said, if you or anyone else wants to jump ship, I'm not going to stop you.

Here here!

I firmly believe this team is a 1st line C away from being a terrible first round opponent for Toronto or Washington.

 

[Olden McGroin]

 

[Coach Parker]

Carle in.
Miller in.

Coyle out.
Carlo out.

And…

…Toews in. Miller 1st line C. Lindholm 2nd line C and Toews 3rd line C.

Bruins go from one Cup ring in their room to 4 and suddenly I love the lines:

Zacha - Miller - Pastrnak
Marchand - Lindholm - Lysell/Poitras
Geekie - Toews - Frederic
Brazeau - Kastelic - Kopke

You are a dreamer I’ll give you that. Miller’s contract will hand around the neck of this team after year 2 or 3. Who fills in the much coveted right shot D once you ship Carlo out? And Toews hasn’t played competitive hockey in how long? And why would he choose Boston IF he returns?

Let’s hope the front office decides to play Lysell Merkulov Poitras for the remainder of the season in order to gauge their potential.

 

[Turd Fergus]

And yes, all time OT scoring winner.

Sacco = dumba

Sacco next

Their fault.



Oesterle's only played 18 games.

After they lose on Monday, Leach will be the new head coach.

Sacco sucks.

Yup. You had a .715 win Pct coach and you gassed him. Herb Brooks couldn't coach this roster to the playoffs but hey it’s Montcassisacco’s fault. It’s been a good run. Move a few pieces out of town. Get back something for the future. Let the kids play to see what we got. It’s time for a a reboot.

 

[duffy]

Bruins players got the last two coaches fired, would not be shocked if they did it again. If it's always the coaches fault the players and management can never be held accountable,

The coach is culpable along with the players, but when you have a team that can not clear their zone for love nor money, this is what you get! Buckle up there is more of this to come! Swayman did everything he could even though he was outshot 2 to 1 , but when you have shooters who are excited to just hit the net with a shot then you can't expect much! That being said , having Zacha and Coyle in the shootout is dumber than if they asked me to shoot!

 

[Aeroforce]

I've been good about not getting too emotionally involved in the outcome of these games; but they sucked me in today. It felt like a playoff game and had the earmarks of being a turning point in this lackluster season.

But once again the B's found a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Is any late lead safe with this team?

Lost face-offs, failed clears, missed empty nets, standing around, making idiotic decisions that would get a pee-wee team bag-skated, etc.

I'd say sell, but what do they really have that would yield a meaningful return?

 

[Boston Bandit]

These two goaltenders might have the most bro-love in the history of the NHL

Now on separate teams and look at this
