I mean with Drake Maye we have something to look forward too

Whats in this bruins pipeline? Nada nothing
Maye wins a few meaningless games? The Pats have sucked for years now and have nothing in their pipe line either.

Want the Bruins to have a pipe line? do what the Pats are doing lose and maybe get lucky to land a top pick for sucking.

NO THANK YOU

The Big Smoke (unfortunately)
They can’t build off a win. That’s talent and heart and also structure. Go ahead and fire Monty (they will before the end of the month IMO), but unless you change some players too this group won’t suddenly become a threat. Wild card team at the very best, but missing points now will hurt down the road. Meh. This is a weak Bruins team. I hate seasons like this.
Let’s face it, tonight was a loss before it even started. Fortunately there are enough crap teams in the league (like us), and in our division too, that they might be able to scrape together enough points to get in. Might. After that, meh.

Claude's style made plenty of games "boring", but goddamn, no coach tightened up loose defensive coverage quicker than Julien.

As well as allowing his players to be physical. While it limited offensive scoring it was by design. Some teams need such a system to win games. His teams were strong enough it was an added bonus. Hence 2008-2014 such an era.

People blaming Swayman when the Bruins defensive coverage has been motley. Going down to early? That's how every goalie plays now. He might of been a little bit too far back on the Bach goal but that's a bit of a broken play where the puck deflects off Zadorov's skate.

Letting Stankoven stand there all alone in front of the net. Not covering the back-door on the Dadonov goal giving him time to dust it off and pick his spot. Zadorov turns the puck over at their own blueline, then letting a puck go right through him AND deflects it right to the Dallas forward.

We can blame the refs, blame goaltending. When the fact is their defensive play is awful and they still can't score goals. That's the crux of their issues still.

I'll stay up to watch the 3rd period only because I had a 2 hour power nap on the couch and I need something to help put me to sleep. Bruins offense is the new cure for insomnia.

Ullmark had a brutal game too, Sens outshot Flyers 37-19 and lost 5-4. Let in a soft nothing shot from Anthony Richard who set up another goal like a minute or so later. Ottawa was outshooting the Flyers 25-4 halfway through the game.

Everyone shit on Jake with his attitude but Sway is not much different with his demands and sitting out.

Linus had a stinker tonight in Ottawa too giving up 5 goals on 19 shots included a real stinker in OT. Both Swayman and Ullmark have struggled greatly so far.
