BRUINS GDT GAME 10 7:08 PM - Gritty comes to Boston - NESN, NESN 4K, ESPN+, SN1, 98.5 WBZ-FM

[CrownofThornton]

That ad that tunnels the screen and minimizes is a bastard.

 

[BMC]

#73 has no slapshot or onetimer.

Was the shoulder he had surgery on his shooting shoulder? Would explain that, I think.

 

[NeelyDan]

He has better hands than half the forwards. His roll is get the pass to Pasta PERIOD. He put the puck on his tape 5 times on that power play.

Blame the system

It’s really not tho - his role is to quarterback the pp - pigeonholing pasta is why their pp is 22nd

 

[KillerMillerTime]

He is far from a bum but he is not a powerplay quarterback either.

Last year was the first year he played without Chara and Bergeron or just Bergeron.
His play has declined for certain, more than what you would have expected given his prior resume as a top 10 dman.

 

[22Brad Park]

For u hockey pool junkies .Pierre LeBrun said no word on extent of McDavid injury till Wednesday.Then 10 seconds later Chris Johnston said its significant

 

[NeelyDan]

You know what the worst part of being fat is? Putting on socks. It’s like I’m trying to fold a bowling ball in half

I agree with this .Monty has to get him going somehow physically

 

[BMC]

Jack's at the game!!!

Infuriating

Isn't that coaching though? Hardly see slappers from the point. Slot, bumper, mostly.

Hard to have a successful power play when they all just stand around, again hardly McAvoy's fault

 

[Aussie Bruin]

Blame the system

It's a little broader than that. A good PP QB should pose a threat themselves from the point. McAvoy doesn't.

Again, we agree that the system as a whole is primarily at fault. Still would like to see someone else tried on PP1.

 

[bwunderlich]

Zacha in front of goalie on PP is much more of a headscratcher than Mac on point.

As for the latter, I'd rather see more wristers from the point, particularly a Torts team that specializes in blocked shots. Get a wrister through

his game in the playoffs has been dogshit ever since Chara left

High above the ice!

I miss hearing that

Hope he's doing well

 

[mjhfb]

Watch Makar.

I agree, it’s not - just saying he’s a lousy qb - I honestly just don’t think it’s part of his profile

 

[BMC]

Game on!!!!!!!!!!!

Miss him

 

[BruinsJoe]

lohrei skipped a couple times there

Is such a bad D in the defensive part

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Watch Makar.

Makar is tiers above the next best defenseman. He is an incredible player.

 

[dangermike]

marchands hands look bad tonight

 

[BMC]

Miss him

I do too

 

[Otherworld]

Wake up boys!

 

[NeelyDan]

Jack looks like he combs his hair with a canoe paddle

 

[BMC]

@Bruinaura can we go live? Please, pretty please?
