Playing awful
Not currently playing
Playing very well

Agreed on Kelly and Campbell, but quite the names to use for examples...

So embarrassing.

Cut. The. Meat.

Goodbye Campbell, Kelly, Eriksson, and Gagne.
Who do you replace them with?? They're not exactly 7min players.

24 stanley cups and all they're known for nowadays is embellishing, turtling and a Spanish soccer chant. Looking forward to Price choking it up in spring.
Not really accurate to be honest.

I love that we're at a 7 million dollar handicap against our arch rival because our overpaid goalie is too much of a choker to play against them.

man this is frustrating. Love this franchise. Hate this team.
You won the cup recently, it's literally all that matters.

They were classic Bruins, yeah, but the salary cap is a thing. I'm sure Chicago would've loved to keep Ladd and Big Buff.

What a burden our Vezina winning goalie is. It is a good thing Sveddy shut out the habs tonight to prove it is only Rask that chokes against the them...

Feel sad for the poor fans that shelled out tons of cash to see this garbage team with the ticket prices the thief JJ charges

Bright spot: Habs are 1-0 when having a wicked hot singer against us.

Would have to imagine that will become tradition.

Man...was she ever hot....you just wait though....we got Sara diamond waiting for you in the playoffs...lol...but seriously..I'm here in peace..
It was a solid game by Montreal but I recognize ..no chara..no krecji..back2back...svedberg....etc....I look forward to the next one

You pay a lot of money for veteran depth. What do you get in return? A whole lot of nothing.

Getting slower, older, and softer over the summer is completely inexcusable. Something has to be straightened out in the front office. That's where these problems are stemming from.

That drubbing and lack of emotion is on the coach. This many regulars out of the lineup, most coaches would switch to man coverage instead of box+1. The missed assignments and stationary forwards are killing this team in their own end. The top of the box isn't shifting properly to cover someone skating up the middle. The D men and consistently confused about who is supposed to cover who when a player skates behind the net. Even if they played the perfect defensive game, sadly they aren't going to win too many games by scoring 1 goal. This team needs to find a way to break through the Montreal T shaped defense. We are the only team I've seen Montreal play that formation against, and it kills us almost every time.

I'm really upset about the lack of emotion this team has shown tonight. You lose 6-1, and are down 3-1 in the next game. You step up and play the rest of the game hard. Putting up 11 shots on goal in the final 2 periods. 3 of them being dump ins. That is unacceptable even from a bottom feeding team. CJ should skate these guys tomorrow until they all puke.

Refs ended the game early, Bruins gave up playing two opponents (refs + habs) on the back half of a back to back, we see the result. Not a big deal. Let's see what happens in Boston when the Bruins are healthy.

With that said, so embarrassed by the Bruins... mostly Chiarelli. This team has no identity, unless it depends on chara that badly. Our two worst fighters had to fight, Lucic should have dropped Subban, McQuaid should have done something. No emotion with the Habs taking huge runs all night. Ugh. Sad to see.

I'll save my money rather than going to any games for a while until Chiarelli fixes this. Terrible. Wait until Pitt beats us 10-1, or the Western teams.

Agree with all of this.

Unless something signficantly turns around there needs to be a big purge of a ton of this non-core.

This is a hell of a lot more than injuries.

Rask would have had us down by two goals a minute into the game. He is not that much better than svedy.

Hey he won a Vezina I hope he had a bonus for winning that :handclap:
