Leafa guys in their prime.Injuries happen, no? Bergeron, Krejci and Ullmark were hardly 100% last year.

Zacha should not be a top line player. 1 goal in what 24 playoff games. Yeah no thanks. Great third liner. Meh second linerZacha - XXX - Pastrnak
XXX - XXX - XXX
DeBrusk - Coyle - XXX
That's a lot of holes in the top 9.
Bruins "depth" players won them G1.I expected Maroon to be borderline worthless but he managed to miss even that expectation.
Depth low end players impact games as well. Remember Thornton-Campbell-Paille winning games against NYR a decade ago? 2011 vs Vancouver?
The version of 4th lines Montgomery was limited to due to Maroon was the opposite of impactful and often a negative, rarely neutral, and extremely rarely positive.
Maroon is by far the slowest and worst player in the NHL at this point, yet he played every game.
They beat the Leafs the only team more inept than the Bruins in the playoffs latelyI disagree. Disappointed with the end result, and thought they should have played better in this game, certainly. But I really doubt that most of us would have believed they would get this far in the playoffs if we were asked at the beginning of the season. The turnover in personnel was huge. Given the amount of “star power” on this edition of the team, I don’t think they did too bad. Should be an interesting off-season. Hope we can land a true #1 centre.
Crosby is a pipe dream.I am sure he will .Crosby his buddy too.
I disagree. I’d rather be in the playoffs than not. If we’re in the playoffs, we have a chance. And I don’t want my team to suck for three (or more) years.
How about we don't pay guys like Maroon, JVR, Heinen, Shattenkirk, Forbort, Gryz, Peeke, Brown. They all at one time or another were taking spots from youth like Beecher, Lohrei, Brazeau, Lauko etc.... I wanna see the Bruins roster spots be given to guys were developing from within not filling out the roster with warm body has-beens at the expense of our youth. Bruins always have had a history of bumping guys who deserve a shot for redundant vets to round out our roster.
Do I need to explain it more or did ya figure out what I'm going on about?
He’s not a leader back there, not his fault he still is a great player but he needs a number 1 guy to lean on to calm him down. The year I think Chara retired I was all in on them getting Petriangelo in FA for this very reason. Everyone was clamoring for offense but this was more of a priority for me.McAvoy had a terrible playoffs but the amount of hate he’s getting here is ridiculous.
Florida made the simple play, which was a shot on net.Both of those Fla goals tonight were so preventable. 1st one - debrusk blocks the shot - the pucks just drops down, and then you 3 guys looking at the puck - debrusk is waving at it on the ice, wotherspoon jumps up but gets poked simultaneously with his goofy clear attempt, and geekies at a standstill looking over both of them and doesn’t pick anyone up. 2nd one - not a great rebound by swayman imo - soft shot from the point… non threatening rush. Bs had numbers defensively. Wotherspoon just screened him. Like Pang said - how does that even get through him (legs wide open). Swayman couldn’t see it but he needs to seal the short side. Seems like most of the goals against Swayman this playoff run were our guys screening him.
That guy deserved a 2 goal lead. Our upfront scoring is putrid and costed us.Both of those Fla goals tonight were so preventable. 1st one - debrusk blocks the shot - the pucks just drops down, and then you 3 guys looking at the puck - debrusk is waving at it on the ice, wotherspoon jumps up but gets poked simultaneously with his goofy clear attempt, and geekies at a standstill looking over both of them and doesn’t pick anyone up. 2nd one - not a great rebound by swayman imo - soft shot from the point… non threatening rush.

This is one of the few times I'm cheering for the Rangers after we are out, because I want Trouba to take off Bennett's head, and Kreider to make Tkachuk choke on his pacifierIt actually makes me ill to know that Florida or New York will make it to the finals. I’m officially on the Dallas bandwagon.
I think he can play two more years but the top 6 has to be upgraded. It’s too much to ask of Marchand at his age to consistently play well . It won’t happen but I’d rather see him utilized in a 3rd line role .He’s got one year left and he had a hell of a year coming off double hip surgery. Marchy’s got at least 2 seasons left with the Olympics looming in 2026.
Oh, and Lindgren...Sigh
If Lauzon played in this series
A dream!
Was still the biggest problem with them they don’t shoot enoughFlorida made the simple play, which was a shot on net.
In either of those instances, had the roles been reversed I bet we would’ve seen Boston attempt six more passes before trying to shoot.
Procter & GambleAnother 82 games and possibly playing leafs in the first round again ( it's the only way) ouch my heart . Gonna buy some pepto stock who owns that company?
For a p*ssy like Marner, Hell no. In a trade for Brady Tkachuk Hell YES!Why?
And on a milk carton.Jim Montgomery's face should be in rulebook next to Too Many Men
Ty Anderson is saying 8 years X $8 million...Sweeney better not fool around trying to lowball him
