BRUINS GDT ECQF GAME 6 - Jack Edwards' final game MUST be a B's win - NESN, TBS, MAX, CBC, SN, TVAS, 98.5 WBZ-FM - B's lead series 3-2

[TD Charlie]

Same as game 5, if any one of Pastrnak, Coyle, or Zacha take over, the Bruins move in.

 

[Number8]

Bs lose tonight and Monty will have to figure out the ENTIRE game 7 lineup. He’s basically going with the Game 3 and 4 lineup again that everyone seems to be screaming for. But if that “guaranteed” lineup can’t do it, then what? If a player or two wets the bed, do they see game 7?

Not sure anyone said anything about “guaranteed”. Simply questioned moving away from success.

Pressure is higher tonight so who knows how it plays out. Leafs probably starting to believe it’s possible.

Whatever lines are tonight they going to have to bring it right from the get go. Like from puck drop get go.

90% of life is showing-up so just f***ing show-up! And c’mon don, fire away with your positivity. Let’s f***ing go!!!!

Personally, I'd put Lauko in over Brazeau.

Sucks about Heinen, as he was really good on the penalty kill.

Lauko looked alright! Drew a couple penalties. Had good speed out there and was quick on the forecheck.

He had a superb PK in G5.

 

[SPLBRUIN]

It's the same forward lines as Games 3 and 4, but with Brazeau in for an injured Heinen

Would prefer Lauko over Brazeau, that 3rd line with JVR and Brazeau is very slow. At least Beecher is back in.

 

[GoBs]

Will Zacha actually win a face off tonight?

Or do anything?

 

[HuskyBruinPride]

Just win

I can't take a game 7. Not after last year's collapse.

 

[Sheppy]

Just win

Boy do I have some bad news for you. This will be going 7.

Boy do I have some bad news for you. This will be going 7.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[DaStinger]

Can't have all 3 of JVR, Maroon, and Brazeau in the same lineup. Two of them and preferably not the same line.

 

[Healthy Wrap]

Yeah, I tend to agree. And that's not an indictment on Brazeau. To me, that line feels like a little too much of the same thing (3 big-bodied, slower, puck possession guys) and my worry is that they'll struggle getting the puck out of their own end, getting in on the forecheck, etc.

Beecher drawing back in was a no-brainer after their faceoff issues in Game 5.

Overall, I'm happy with the lineup decisions.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Lauko cannot score, we need all the offensive help we can, leave JB in the lineup please.
Beecher is a must, can kill penalties and is great on the dot.

 

[goldenblack]

I kind of want to see Brazeau next to Marchand and Coyle, who should both be able to cover for him defensively, and Geekie back on the 3rd line with Frederic and JVR who have all played great together during the season. It makes that 3rd line faster too without having both JVR and Brazeau on it.

I actually like that

 

[Ladyfan]

?????

I want handshakes tonight...No game 7.

Bleh if they can dress Reeves and Bertuzzi etc, were fine

 

[bobber]

No Mathews tonight according to Sports Net

 

[SPV]

Wearing my Boston strong jersey and listening to 300 Violin Orchestra, I just dragged my old body out for a best run time in over a year since I got back out there. Hope those young guys in black and gold can put in their best effort tonight as well. I’m pumped up for it. Let’s get em boys!

 

[Clode]

Matthews out again, get it done. I do not trust them if this goes 7.

 

[ODAAT]

4-2 B`s with Leafs scoring their 2nd with under a minute to go in the game preceded by a chorus of boos

 

[Alicat]

Well the weather is supposed to be shitty again this afternoon just like it was game 4 so I'll take it as a positive sign.

 

[Bread and Circuses]

8:14pm??????

What is this a Saturday?

This isn’t good for my don’t drink too many beers on a weeknight problem.

 

[DarrenBanks56]

I've been cranking at work all day to stay busy. Wondering if I should keep cranking or take a nap since EIGHT FOURTEEN MAY AS WELL BE MIDNIGHT
