They don't look like themselves on the bench. No fun being had. That your read from your seat?

Something is really off with this team

the players DO NOT look happy ...at all

 

[Ladyfan]

So was Clifton. At half the price.

Should have kept Danton Heinen

 

[ae530]

Just curious. Which big name or tw

Just curious. Which big name or two?

Charlie McAvoy and Elias Lindholm or Charlie Coyle. Brandon Carlo can also go. All 4 of these guys have been no shows this season

Just curious. Which big name or two?

Elias Lindholm

 

[BadBruins]

Getting rid of Monty is not going to make this guys turn into scoring machines, lets temper the expectations a bit. We got rid of scoring for size and grit, there needed to be a middle ground but they went a block past that. Silver lining if this is it, perhaps they get a good pick for once.

Ultimately, I think the biggest mistake was altering and building your team to counter the Panthers. Same **** that the Leafs and Canadiens did to combat the Bruins when they peaked. Weak loser mentality. You'll never win that way. And I liked a lot of the additions this off-season.

 

[Aussie Bruin]

Don't show me the Hobbit. It's depressing. What heart that little guy has.

[The don godfather]

I lost 6 bucks on the morons unless a miracle happens in the 3rd . I was so sure they would be ready.

 

[Otherworld]

Another failed PK.....

Special teams are killing us

 

[Bradely]

Elias Lindholm

?

 

[Thirty Seven]

I miss Sophia

 

[4ORRBRUIN]

Just curious. Which big name or two?

Carlo to start Coyle, Freddy waive TJ.

Find Pasta some help

 

[lextune]

Raycroft is terrible.

 

[ae530]

These guys are just going through the motions now. Thursday night The Stars will destroy them

 

[Zillah]

Not even sure offers for Pasta would be worth fielding . He’s providing less than nothing . Less than nothing means he’s not scoring and is actually hurting the team .

 

[Ladyfan]

I miss Sophia

That is why the suck! They need Sophia back!

 

[EverettMike]

If they get a single shot on net in the third period to me that's a huge win.

 

[Thirty Seven]

Monty looks like he's preparing himself for a tough conversation after the game

That is why the suck! They need Sophia back!

I truly believe this, I would play a lot harder if I knew I was talking to Sophia between periods

 

[Aussie Bruin]

Raycroft is terrible.

He really is.

Monty on the bench there with the look of a guy who knows it's over.

 

[The don godfather]

That's right monty inhale exhale.

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

Monty looks like he's preparing himself for a tough conversation after the game

"Just tell em it wasn't you."

 

[RoccoF14]

I think Bruce's time had run its course with the Bruins. No complaints about moving him on, despite what came after. Great coach, but shelf life and all that. Was Monty the right replacement though? Initially, quite possible, despite how those first playoffs panned out, for the reasons you stated and more. But for this roster? Really seems not. Cut your losses and try something else.

They overachieved last year. I’ll give Monty credit for that. Sweeney is the one who f***ed this roster up. I’ve always been a big Sweeney guy, but this summer was roster malpractice.

Monty will take the fall, and this board will be happy. Maybe the special teams improve. But there aren’t many goals in this lineup..

 

[OV]

well, they won't be shotless in the third tonight.

 

[JCRO]

They look great if you just started watching at the start of the third like me

 

[Bradely]

Not even sure offers for Pasta would be worth fielding . He’s providing less than nothing . Less than nothing means he’s not scoring and is actually hurting the team .

IMHO the problem is not limited to one player or 2. It goes likely deeper.

 

[Mr. Make-Believe]

Bruins playing prevent hockey DOWN by two goals now.
