Post-Game Talk: ECSF GAME 2 - Old-Time Hockey - Where were the Hanson Brothers??? - Series tied 1-1

[The Hockey Tonk Man]

Think it's time to sit JVR for Lauko?
Maybe draw a few penalties....

Ya can definitey be mad at the cheap shots.

More or less I’m just seeing people say it’s targeting and need Freddy on pastas line to protect him.

When in my mind that’s about as *professional* as you can get to start a fight. Offer the fight, let the player go to the bench and ask the coach, then wait for the next shift to fight.

I guess I’m just curious how people think Freddy is going to protect a guy who agreed to a fight on the bench and got permission from the coach

The fight itself was acceptable. It is just extremely Tkachuk rodent like to be offering to Pastrnak who he considers a safe target. Much like every other tactic Tkachuk has, the pure opposite of Brady.

The cheapshots at the end were also very Tkachuk. The only way he can "win". Pick his battle and punch when he cannot be punched back.

 

[Ladyfan]

Both Pasta and Mac are targets.

Brad too.

It is time our players (not Pasta) target their stars.

 

[Alicat]

So who are we getting for refs tomorrow?

 

[Mione134]

Boqvist clearly injured and ineffective.

Last night he was on the ice for 9 scoring chances against. For a forward that is crazy high relative to others in game 2.

Insert Lauko for JVR and Heinen for Boqvist.

 

[lopey]

Is he going to call them names again?

Can we see what he will do before you write him off?

If I'm a Florida fan, I'd love Tkachuk's game last night.

But I'm not, thank God, so I call it like I see it, which is Tkachuk picking his spot VERY carefully. Game out of hand, no fear of retribution, chance to bury the best player for Boston. It was a good move.

It will also be a good move when one of Boston's gentle giants drags Barkov to deep waters and puts a fist sized hole through his dome

 

[bobber]

The biggest prick on the team isn't even playing.........yet. Wait til he comes back.

Couple of hard hits into the boards he'll be back in the infirmary in no time.

 

[Bruinator]

The big thing going into game three is start burying your chances. two empty nets and a post. You bury those and you're up 4 nothing after one. It's not like they didn't get chances early. Pasta has to start being pasta. And McAvoy definitely has to start being McAvoy.

 

[Kate08]

Is he going to call them names again?

In fairness, he didn't really get the chance to do anything else because he was tossed.

 

[Otherworld]

Us pushing back is the most important part of this series. We knew we'd see this garbage happen. We know we cannot rely on the rules of the game being enforced. We have to stick up for ourselves, our teammates and the B on our chests!!!!!!

 

[Bruinfanatic]

I don’t think he’s fighting coming of back surgery

 

[lopey]

I don’t think he’s fighting coming of back surgery

If he can play a professional hockey game, get hit as much as he does he can fight

He's a coward! F#&k him! F#&k the Panthers!

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

Doesn't matter, Panthers embarrassed Boston at end.

Says who? you? give it a rest already. The Panthers grew balls after all the Bruin Big guys got tossed LOL

Panthers embarrassed themselves

 

[tremha77]

Lauko isn't that bad of a fighter like some think. Hes not a punching bag like AJ Greer was. And it's not even about the fights. It's the hitting. The agitation. The aggressiveness. Lauko plays like that every shift. So he better be sloted in. The ghost of JVR's speed needs to sit.

i would sit the Big Rig over JVR - he is so slow and has done nothing physically - too far behind to make many hits and his puck skills and piss poor

 

[22Brad Park]

It his hand

 

[Kate08]

it's the playoffs. that's his function. do what you gotta do.

 

[TD Charlie]

it's the playoffs. that's his function. do what you gotta do.

I just need 1 good brawl out of him tomorrow. I don't care if he ever plays another game in Boston after that. Just need this 1.

Sure.

Looks like you've lost sight of reality.

 

[22Brad Park]

Lauko is made for this type series. Monty better get him in there

 

[Mione134]

i would sit the Big Rig over JVR - he is so slow and has done nothing physically - too far behind to make many hits and his puck skills and piss poor

You absolutely keep Maroon in.

You can use JVR's roster spot for Heinen and Boqvist for Lauko or vice versa.

No way am I sitting Fat Pat considering what happened last game. Nope.

 

[TD Charlie]

Depends if they're gonna get game 1 JVR, or game 2, and whether or not Maroon is gonna draw blood at any point in game 3

 

[sarge88]

So who are we getting for refs tomorrow?

Keith Tkachuk and Ed Jovanovski
