I disagree. The Vegas game hurt more because we didn't even get a point, and also, we didn't know that we could dominate as often as we have in the last 3 games.

Both the Vegas and Philly games sucked and suffered from bad goaltending. Who cares which was worse?

At least neither goalie was getting paid 8.25 mil in that game.

Tkachuk's board battles are becoming legendary. Block off the defender and physically dominate him - or them - until he has the puck back and under control.
It's very, very impressive

Hmmm. Just finished the game. Hard to be too upset when the team is playing this way. Jimmy and bath looking great together. Another 10+ minute stretch of no SOG allowed, which for the first time this season felt like the sword of damoclese was overhead.
Ullmark laid an egg. 3rd and OT goals are ones to feel embarrassed by.
That said - if this team keeps playing this way, the wins will keep coming and we'll be playoff bound. 3 back to back to back dominant games in terms of overall play, limiting chances for big stretches, and individual efforts from key players.
Im not going to bed upset - we got a point!

Carolina, Edmonton, Vegas, and Vancouver next. Great.
The only break we get is Edmonton is playing their 3rd game in 4 nights against us and B2B.

Didn't watch game missed this one just saw the highlights. Euhh It's me or Ulmark was bad on every goal those 5 goals are all normal save ezpect the rebound one and it shouldnt be a rebound. Really sucks cause team wqs pkaying against good goaltending and still potted 4. Can't allow 5 goal on 5 shots and for once it was not the defensive play to blame.
Looks like the old Norris is back to form ?
Glad we got a point but that was an easy 2 not because of Philly more because we played well and Ulmark shit on the bed.

They had a great second period.
Ullmark needs to figure it out, or the team needs to figure out how to manage him. He's been a tandem guy most of his career, so maybe they need to lean more on Forsberg. As much as you don't want to hear that about an 8M goalie, such is life. 8M is the new 6M. I'm confident he will figure it out. He has been too good the last few years to be this bad.
There was a shot of him hanging out by the boards and all the ladies were going nuts. He has a certain type of handsomeness. Not a traditional handsomeness. He is like Arizona handsome.

Of all the cope I've been reading in this thread, this is the most egregious one.
That feels like a make or break schedule. Are you the team last year that would go 0-4 or can you get some wins and OTLs?

Some are probably still reeling over the game. Here is an image to help take your mind off of the loss for a bit...

Let’s just hope they get rewarded for their play. Things start falling apart when teams put in effort but don’t get results.

What a game by Norris by the way. He was back to his peak level tonight, hopefully he can keep going, it makes us a much better team. Same with Chabot, back to be Elite.
Ottawa has looked like an elite team lately. Ullmark lost the game by himself and he knows it
I don't find they panicked at all, they dominated the whole game and barely gave any scoring chances. Ullmark should have had at least 3 of these goals
1st goal against wasn't great too. And even the 4th one, not well positioned, gave up a really bad rebound in the slot. Frankly, it was a really bad performance and he knows it.
That being said, the team is playing almost flawless hockey, they were dominant, controlled the whole game. At least they got a point tonight, unlike Vegas and Colorado games where they deserved at least a point...
But in the end, it really hurts, they are a much better team than 8-7-1

Hard to say. Outside of a few goalies, the recent success has more weight than how they played years ago. Especially behind an elite defensive team like Bruins. Our defensive game was outstanding, and to lose a game like that has a huge impact on the team. How does the team look at how they dominated a flacid opponent, and not change knowing the goalie can’t stop a beach ball. This should have been a 5-1 win. Time for ullmark to earn the net, and watch from the bench and watch forsy get his chance. Complete opposite of what I expected from ullmark. I was a huge believe he would be a difference maker, just in the opposite direction.

1st goal : not a "weak" goal but his positioning and his reaction speed too far from being optimal : not a very good goal to give
2nd goal : breakaway by a good player, can't blame him
3rd goal : one-timer but from a distance and not an unstoppable shot. Had well enough time to get across but it gets through him. He just didn't "feel it"
4th goal : bad positioning again, not defying shots, leads up to a bad rebound in the slot. Not a "bad goal" but he barely had to make any tough saves in the whole game. It was time to make one.
5th goal : just awful but it shouldn't have gone to OT in the first place. If he had a good game, it would have been a 4-1 win, a normal game a 4-2 win, a so-so game a 4-3 win.

It's consistently insane. You go in for the puck with him, you'll end up looking weak
