I want more hockey. Please win game 5. Bring it home for a buzzing td garden for game 6.
It’s approaching WWE level with all the drama and the “missed calls”.

You are 100% right. Everybody keeps talking about the players but it’s the two idiots at the top that put them there. It’s not gonna happen, but I would love to see both of them gone.

Yup the refs suck and they helped screw us over, but that's hockey and complaining about it we sound like Vancouver sounded when we beat them for the cup. The Big Bad Panthers are just really good at what they do and have more talent.
They are coached to be dirty (think back to when Maurice coached Winnipeg, they were dirty too, it's what he teaches) but they are smart dirty and they are in the Bruins heads as a result.
If we had more offensive talent the good effort to start this game was there and maybe we'd have buried them but alas we do not have that talent and we can't really play at that speed for 3 full periods. We just aren't that good.
A lot of guys worked hard tonight though. They didn't quit, and you have to admire that. Oh, and they beat the Leafs.

Did any player show any bit of extended effort or fight in the 3rd period in your opinion?

No doubt. Much better team.
Just so frustrating to see that the refs and League obviously feel the same way, so make sure B’s don’t steal a game from a team that had the lead — even if they didn’t necessarily deserve that lead.
NHL should just step in and call off the rest of the Series to save Florida’s energy for NYR.

I am sadden that the Bruins lack the talent to be competitive.
I never thought that the Bruins would beat Forida and have said so all along.
Why fans get excited about an extension for Zacha, is beyond me, he should have never been taken from the Devils.
I no longer think there will be a game 7. I am recinding that.
Fenway you trips are ending after this one.
As for next season, there is a clean house required IMO start with Neely, Sweeney and Montgomery and then into the player mix.
I know it is a Cap problem. Who created that?
I know it is because we don't draft well, who does that, who has that job, why are they still here?
That's enough for now.

The biggest mistake was giving Mac that contract. I said it when he got it and I’ll say it again… he will never be worth what he got paid. He is useless on the PP a turnover machine and cannot elevate his game when it matter the most. He has been so terrible this post season.
5 shots Period 1
2 shots Period 3
Bad coverage by Florida on Pasta blast. Not really much of a great set up or anything.
Carlo throws one towards the net after ricochet off Florida skate.
All goals count, so good we shot. But we don’t have any offense flow at all. Lots of lunch league hockey where someone tries to take it further than they actually can. Leafs to your teammates watching you.
We need something different to beat these guys.
Time for a lineup of Gryz, Shattenkirk, and Forbort. McAvoy Lindholm Carlo. Dress a 7th D so we can adjust. Either Lohrei or Wotherspoon. I would not play Peeke.

Donny found sway McAvoy lohrei and carlo. That trio can keep this team in playoffs for years. Those are foundational pieces.

that was a bullshit call the refs missed it and the replay refs totally blew it but come on only 2 shots pathetic .this team will be done tues and then would love to see what the offseason play will be
They DID score and they WERE leading until that debacle of a call. Everyone understands more shots, blah blah blah. In the playoffs, all that matters is a win. With Swayman playing so well, it was quite possible the Bruins could have held on and won that game.

Talk is cheap
The only good thing about this series is that management should have a pretty good idea who are playoff type players and who aren't
..most of them aren't

It will be once the season is done, but it’s a microcosm right now as last game is closest event that happened. Most would say this season was a success despite the lack of top centers. This off season they’ll hopefully fix the issues with finally having cap space. But right now it’s about last game and the next game, and my emotion will relate to the wins and losses while posting
And more well rounded. They aren't simply just a talented bunch, but they're tenacious, and they're well built. The physicality across the board sets them far apart from the Boston 'Ruins.

But they aren’t. I went Friday and sat close. They aren’t some juggernaut. We’re gassed and they have decent size.
Plus they are getting every call imaginable.
I think we’ll take them next year. This series isn’t totally over but if we couldn’t win up 2-0 early hard to see us taking 3 straight.

I said going into the playoffs that they had exceeded my expectations, but a series win would’ve been nice.
I got that.
They just don’t have the horses to overcome these obviously better teams.
Still can’t get over the lack of fight though. Just makes me sad. We are always beat over the head about what a “great room” they have and yet no fight? Like barely anything? Bums me out.
