BRUINS GDT GAME 16 7:14 PM - Linus returns - NESN, ESPN+, CITYtv, 98.5 WBZ-FM

[22Brad Park]

Why do we insist on the stupid as delay drop pass on the PP? That only works when you have someone to can attack with speed..... we do not. On top of that we gain the blueline on the PP and instantly pull up and start passing back and fourth on the blue line.

I think it's something that might help vs odd team but for it to be how you do things every single time is concerning.Use to watch Russians do it steady in 70s

 

[PaulD]

I'm sooooooooooooo happy with get to watch that sh&t show McAvoy run this PP for the next 4 years

It's getting funny how everyone in Boston can see Macs game us in the toilet.....except Monty.
He benches Pasta and Coyle, berates Marchand on the bench, calls out Pasta in the media ,.....on McAvoy.....crickets.

 

[JRull86]

Are you bozo's blaming Mac on that pass to the point ? Good god stop watching the sport

Watching 73 QB a PP and refuse to shoot the pick with a clear lane after bringing the box in to above the dots is horrendous hockey IQ.

He sucks on the PP, it's not an unfair criticism.

 

[Dennis Bonvie]

If passing were a stat, we’d definitely be leading the league

Not in completions, though.

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

ice is shiite, puck bounces a lot = check
team over passes = check
zero attempts on goal = check

The three idiot forwards fighting behind the net on that pp was a riot. Must be McAvoy's fault.

Want a better power play? Get better forwards

 

[duffy]

Imagine having a PP and never shoot

that's what happens when you continue to put a D man out there who doesn't shoot and continuously gives up shorthanded 2 on 1s! I want to know when this team is going to learn from their mistakes?
3 on 1 and no shot, both D men behind the net, not clearing the puck, screening your own goalie, when will it stop? Mc Avoy should give half his paycheck to Witherspoon because he is the only D man earning his paycheck!

Just take him off PP and use him on PK.He will have way more energy too.Let Lohrei have a good run at it for now.

 

[NeelyOrr]

Well...the " good " news is they didn't give up a shorty in the last 10 seconds

The power play is so absurdly bad I am literally without words ...and this is against a team with a weak pk

This brand of hockey is just tough to watch

Thursday night there were 3 teams with a worse PP than the BRUINS. Going into tonight's game there are only two.

 

[JAD]

McAvoy is a PP killer.

All I'm going to say is, McAvoy's play has stagnated the last 2 or 3 years.

Now critique Pasta and Marchand, Pasta kills power plays. period

Leafs scoring pp goals steady since facing Bruins.Saw interview with Berube and he said its because they are attacking

 

[NeelyOrr]

I'd say this is true for all the BRUINS' players who wear a 'letter' on their jersey.

 

[Caper Bruins fan]

I kind of miss the days when the Bruins were a great regular season team before ultimately shitting themselves. I could enjoy some stress free hockey . Now , I have to be stressed for every f***ing game !

They must have no power play quarterback either

I'd say this is true for all the BRUINS' players who wear a 'letter' on their jersey.

 

[JAD]

Or is it because they are not relying on one player to score?

 

[duffy]

McAvoy is such a f***ing disasters on the PP .

How do the coaches not recognize this?

They are trying to force Charlie to learn on the fly and it will probably get the coaches fired.

 

[SPV]

I really don’t think it’s difficult, when you’re struggling to score goals you need to get pucks and bodies to the net and hope for bounces, tips, etc. It feels like this team is always looking for the highlight reel passes

 

[Caper Bruins fan]

Learn on the fly ? Wasn’t he terrible last year on the power play also .

 

[GahdenRinkRat]

the music choice right now at the Gahden is the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald…..
Not kidding.

 

[22Brad Park]

Well going by Berube they are shooting more and attacking net.Definitely on fire though now.

Take Pasta off the PP so the guys on the PP will have to shoot.

They tried their damdest to give up a shorty, but Swagman was the difference!

 

[CrownofThornton]

Everyone complaining about McAvoy not taking the shot (rightfully so), but I’m gonna just keep complaining about how he can never keep the puck inside the blue line on the power play. Maybe the worst player ever I’ve seen at it in recent times.

Also, great job screening Swayman on the second goal against.

McAvoy needs to be in close in order to score goals . He can’t shoot at all from a distance like Brad Park , Ray Bourque could. It’s at the point now where it isn’t Charlie’s fault anymore it is Montgomery’s.
