Also Jamie Benn is such a dink.

Not sure how he got away with that crosscheck in the numbers of Carlo. Ref was standing right there. Egregious doesn’t even scratch the surface

It’s a win. More than I expected. Just another game where Swayman/Ullmark steal the show. The forwards not up to par but Swayman took care of business.

I feel that J-SWAY is capable of playing 60 games a season. Trading Ullmark will make the BRUINS a better all around team and a team that will go deeper in the PO's.
Depends what we could get for him . I’m not giving him away . I’d want a legit top 6 forward back or I’m not trading him . He’s good insurance.

You aren't wrong on that!
Feels a bit 2011 ish with Thomas. No cup without him. Maybe not even out of the first round. I'll take a lights out goalie or goalies
I don’t think it feels anything like that. This team lacks almost everything that the cup winners had in spades.

Last point, Shattenkirk was horrendous on the final PP and what I believe was his last shift shortly after that.

You could hear someone yell “are you ****ing ****ing me!” as he entered the bench after that PP.

Guys punching above their weight in heavy minutes on the bs backend right now.

I was playing ball hockey tonight, so missed the first 2 periods. Great that Beecher and Lohrei got their first goals!

I had this all ready to go, but wasn't here to use it.

But I still go back to Ullmark for the next one .
i actually try to stick with swayman.
in my opinion we have to get away from this rotation crap for the meaningless nhl reg season.
id look to trade ullmark.
i want swayman as my game 1 playoff starter this year. let him know its his team. game 1. not coming in to save ullmarks ass again.

Zacha was even worse on the final PP.

Pasta and Marchy weren't very good either.

It’s early, but I see similarities.

Goaltending very strong.

I think that Pasta will definitely be their leading scorer and will beat out the 2011 leader by a lot. Krejci?

I think this team is a lot younger and much less tough, but they are still good defensively.

McAvoy and Z are different players, but both legit 1’s and top 10 or so in the league.

Obviously nobody is playing Selke level defense, but Bergy is a once every 30 years player.

Wel‘ll see how they look in 3/4 months, but so far so good.
