Seriously, if Chara and Krejci never come back, then this is a middle of the pack team.

With these two, this is one of the best team in the East.

Trotman for Chara.
Gagne for Krejci.

Imagine making these deals.


Yea I thought that too.

But what do you do with 6-7 forwards that can't put the puck in the net?

Meaning....Kelly, Lucic, Eriksson, Gagne, Campbell, Paille, (and then 2 rookies Fraser/Griffith)

Whether we like it or not, the Bruins have been passed up.

Instead of the Bruins.... watch Colorado! Man are you a fan or not!

I am a huge fan. I was at ground zero when game seven ended and my classroom walls are covered in my Bruins memorbilia. Every trip out here I attend and even fly out to Boston once a year for games.

That doesn't mean that I am forced to tune into a team that isn't exciting to watch, doesn't play a brand of hockey I enjoy anymore, seem disinterested in the game and don't enterain. The team has no identity or passion anymore so I'll tune back in when I won't be bored, disappointed or getting overly critical of players who aren't playing with that passion anymore.

This game was a poor attempt of a theatrical play by the refs, NHL and the Canadians. Bruins didn't help themselves but nobody wins a fight with their arms down.

Worst. Post. Ever.

They got their ***** handed to them. They did everything wrong. The refs, the league, and the Habs had zero to do with the Bruins taking a dump on the ice the last two nights. Seeing posts like yours makes me embarrassed to be a Bruins fan.

First game Weise plays Lucic since threat:
Weise boards Campbell
Weise proceeds to pound Campbell in fight
Weise score game tying goal on penalty shot
Weise runs Svedberg in the waning minutes of a blowout game

A penalty ahot resulting from a delayed and forced flop, no less. He was slapping Campbell in the head while Campbell was on his knees, and the Bruins collectively said, it's all good.

I've been angry about the team occasionally in recent years, but rarely actually angry at the team itself and players. Obviously they cannot control trades or injuries, but the performance this year has been utterly unacceptable. Right now I'll save my money and pass on even the $50 weeknight games at this point.

I can't force myself to watch the games this year. The team is just not entertaining like they've been since 2007. I used to watch 75% of games and this year it's 3-4 so far. Even when they win just watching the highlights seems to be enough. It's sad because they really such a unique team with amazing heart and character and yet were still one of the top teams every year. I still think they will get into the playoffs this year but they've lost their mojo now and just aren't the "Bruins" anymore.

It's ****ing frightening.

The teams looks Habs-like out there, the fans are sounding like Habs fans.

My worst nightmare has come true.

Don't overreact. Lucic can put the puck in the net. Loui too. The others just can't.

But the Bruins identity is defense. Without Chara and Krejci to have the puck in the OZ, it looks worse than it is.

They had a bad loss against the Leafs who looked good yesterday and tonight, played a team 100% healthy and fresh at home and they got the bounces.

Some say the Habs are a top team in the East. If that's true, than good news. They are not that good. I would rather play them than the Leafs for sure...

Exactly. Maybe they can use the cup win in 2011 to justify their posts like Hab fans do with their 24 wins. Oh wait, they've been doing that for 3 years now. Never mind...:naughty:

Yes you can.

Just try. If you find it is difficult, go watch Seguin play in Dallas, or Kessel pot 2 last night.
Boychuck playing solid hockey in NYI.

It will get the juices flowing and you CAN find ways to throw him under..

Blasted Chiarelli. He cheated with the payroll for last year, and left us short this year. What kind of manager does that? You did that at your work you would get fired. So he should be fired! Bring back Sinden!

OMG what was Chiarelli doing with that facial hair? No one will love you looking like that!

3 year extension for claude? The only extension that should be handed out if for the bruins to get extensions on their ****ers, might help them grow a pair.

Of course then you can look at the photo of him holding a stanley cup, and realize that he had a hand in ending the pain of being a bruins fans from the shadows of hell.

Dallas will barely make the playoff if they do and.. Kessel with Chara in ... and Rask in... well nothing special!!!

Yes, and if the Stars make the playoffs, who will get the credit? Tyler Seguin and his bff Jamie Benn

Who will get the credit if the Leafs manage to get into the playoffs? Phil Kessel.

All the while the Bruins look like a dumpster fire.

I know the results tell a different story tonight but I agree Montreal are not that good and when healthy we can be significantly better than we were tonight.
