BRUINS GDT ECQF GAME 1 7:41 PM - (WC2) Florida Panthers @ (A1) Boston Bruins - NESN, NESN 4K, ESPN, CBC, TVAS, 98.5 WBZ-FM

Can’t wait for the puck to drop, feeling a bit nervous and I don’t think this series will be as easy as many outsiders predict for the Bruins. Even with the bug going I think we’ll be ok. For me I think Tyler Bertuzzi will come huge through the playoffs. He is finally making his playoff debut tonight almost ten years after being drafted by the Red Wings! He has playoff experience with lengthy runs in the AHL and OHL, looking to forward to see what can do in his first taste of NHL playoff action. Who else do you guys think steps up tonight for the B’s?

Bruins' Tyler Bertuzzi Set For Long-Awaited Playoff Debut - The Hockey Writers Boston Bruins Latest News, Analysis & More

It has taken him a long time to get here, but Boston Bruins forward Tyler Bertuzzi is finally set to make his NHL playoff debut.

I'm going to piggyback off this if I may, @JustinCaron.

Taylor Hall, David Pastranak, Jake DeBrusk, Charlie McAvoy and Hampus Lindholm are also looking to etch their names into playoff history. Those guys are HUNGRY.

LOL Felger and Maz are in heaven with the bruins illness issues. They love this.

Those 2 are sick in the head

I can’t stand them

 

[Alicat]

f*** the Panthers fans especially those celebrating illness. Bruins have what it takes to win without key guys and have done it all year.

Do not start doubting them now. Anyone doubting they can overcome this little bump we’re rooting them to fail all along or not real fans.

Enough doom and gloom.

I don't listen to 98.5 much, but put it on some late last week just to see if there was much buzz about the Bruins. My gosh, in between Pats and Red Sox talk, those guys couldn't stop talking about how the 76-77 Montreal team was greater than this season's Bs team. Did everything they could to put an asterisk beside the Bs accomplishments this season. Got my fill of idiocy pretty quick. Alexa, turn off radio.

Back from a wonderful week in Costa Rica to say 2 things:
1) Pura Vida!
2) Go Bruins!!

Your friendly reminder that “Wannab’s” is the dumbest nickname ever created to describe the Providence Bruins players.

THANK YOU! I thought it was just me. Toss it into the pile of other annoying words/phrases such as "celly" and Jack saying "a BUCK and a half to go" and send that nickname seaworthy, to paraphrase one Sol Rosenberg.

Awesome GDT, Fenway. Spectacular amount of detail there!

Friend of mine goes there every year, says its so beautiful and the people are great. I want to go. Is it as nice as he says?

 

[BruinsPortugal]

Writing off the bruins because some guy is ill is probably the best thing it could happen. Shake that record setting feelings off cause that shit is gone. Lets go.

 

[KnightofBoston]

If their former captain kicking ass and being with the city for that marathon does spring the boys into a storied run now that we haven’t gotten out of the regular season I don’t know what will!

Go bruins

 

[LouJersey]

I’m hoping for a real long run here.

Having said that, I suggest all tread lightly on the Main Playoffs Board and stay of the Cats board altogether.

just sayin’.

Do they even have one?

 

[ShiftyNifty16]

I watched highlights of some B's playoff games yesterday and they were sooo close to beating the Canes in game 7 but just never had enough talent and/or home ice advantage to advance to round 2

They advanced to round 2 in 2021 but Game 6 against the Islanders stuck out as being one of those games where the Bruins were just not tough enough, and looked like some players just gave up and/or shouldn't have been on the ice due to injuries

I don't see no quit in this team and the talent and toughness are there, so if they can stay healthy enough they should not only win this series, but will hopefully have a loooong run into the Finals

The NHL has so much parity that it usually comes down to who wants it more

I think the Bruins want it more...but only time will tell

Go B's!!!

Wars are won in the will.

Felger has to be the biggest loser troll in all of sports radio. How that charlatan still has a job is incredible.

 

[Mistah Ungah]

How that charlatan still has a job is incredible.

I consider it to be the eighth wonder of the world.

 

[Bmessy]

Playoffs. Bruins.
Patrice. Bergeron.
Pepto. Bismol.

Coincidence??? I think not!!

Go bruins

He looks like he could log 20+ minutes easily. Maybe the Bs can sign him up for tonight?

Seriously I hope Big Z is in the house tonight

 

[BMC]

I can't stand it anymore

DROP THE f***ING PUCK ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can remember watching an off-ice training video of his, and was just shocked at what he can do. He is just an incredible athlete that is all heart.

Eye of the tiger.

 

[eightspokedb]

I'm terrified.

I'm alternating between wanting to burst into tears (once so far) and throwing up (none thank goodness)....and it's snowing at the Cave.

Gonna take a pregame nap to pass the time....

LET'S GO BRUINS!!!!

 

[ShiftyNifty16]

I'm fired up!!! Drop the damn puck!!

Maybe I'm nuts, I've never felt more calm before a playoffs. Usually, I'm an emotional wreak making my wife threaten to have me committed.

Not today, not this season. Too many guys coming back into the lineup, too many guys who have been quite for awhile, guys who know this is the last dance, too many hungry guys, too much talent and pride in the locker room to not get the job done!!

 

[Sheppy]

I guess I'll have to deck out my Condo when I get home after work.

It might look like a frat house but I don't care.

 

[The don godfather]

Do it for bergy and dk! Enough said.

 

[TP70BruinsCup]

I can't stand it anymore

DROP THE f***ING PUCK ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The key is not to panic………with that……yeah drop the puck!!!!!!!

OK this is the last time we quote & reply to each other's posts for the duration of the playoffs.

We can't be too careful about jinxing the team!
