Pre-Game Talk: GAME 2 7:08 PM - BIENVENUE POUTINEVILLE - NESN, NESN 4K, ESPN+, RDS, 98.5 WBZ-FM, CKGM AM 690

[AngryMilkcrates]

That’s fine. He’d also be the worst hockey player on the ice by a decent amount.

So was Viel in the preseason and he still stood out more than half the Providence guys who played.

 

[Ned Bouhalassa]

A blast from the past to remind the boys that there’s a tradition to respect tonight!

 

[Eddie Munson]

I'd like to believe that we can't possibly play worse than last game.....

 

[Blowfish]

I think I could deal with him being on the 4th line over say...Max Jones?

Jones needs to be sent down to get back in shape and game head on. He’s been horrible.

 

[danpantz]

Montreal on a back to back with travel.

We got embarrassed on opening night.

Should be a blow out if this team has any pride but who knows.

Let sway play. Switch up the d pairs. Get max Jones off the third line and lets get after em.

 

[Blowfish]

I just watched the leafs/habs game. We're in trouble if we play like we did vs. Kitties.

? Why? I heard both teams played bad.

I agree.
Been thru the 70's and a bit of the 80's losing time and again in the playoffs plus the way we would lose (1979)
Now? Meh. We've paid them back thru the years. Plus their not really as competitive.
Don't hate them, just don't like them.

Florida I absolutely despise.
Leafs... I actually want to vomit when we play them in the playoffs. I hate the team, fanbase, their media and their city.

Florida is such A well constructed team. They are the bruins I want to watch. I respect how good they are. You nailed the leafs.

 

[Gee Wally]

Anyword on Poitas and if he could be back in? Could use his skill in there.

No updates. But must be out at least 7 days.

Injured Reserve​

This is the less severe of the two injury list designations. When a player is put on IR, it means that they cannot play for at least 7 days. They can still participate in things like practice and meetings, as long it isn’t anything competitive.

Injured Reserve frees up a spot on the roster to move in another player. It does not, however, free up any cap space. So the salary of the player on IR still counts toward the salary cap limit. This is more of a temporary designation for a player expected to come back soon. It can also be used for illness.

 

[NeelyDan]

Happy first bruins game of the season kids!

 

[jgatie]

f*** the Habs! (That is all.)

 

[Ladyfan]

Ntl. Anthems Celine Dion (Canada), Todd Angilly (United States)

Just keep Celine (bad luck) out of the Bs locker room.

I'd like to believe that we can't possibly play worse than last game.....

This is how I feel

I just had a 2.5 hour commute on 495/93 and this is the first image I see today. Thanks Fenway. Next you're going to tell me Santa isn't real

Jones needs to be sent down to get back in shape and game head on. He’s been horrible.

I wasn't able to watch any preseason, so his ref slash was my first real introduction. Not the best look lol.

Watched a lot of the Montreal/Toronto game. You heard wrong.

Who’s WiFi ?

Anyways Monty speech should be

“Play fast. Play smart.”

Basically opposite of playing slow & dumb

 

[ae530]

Maybe it's just me but I have a hard time hating Montreal these days simply because they haven't been relevant for a while

I still hate those pr____

 

[Dennis Bonvie]

I have a built up reservoir of hate from the 80s and 90s The troff has plenty left

Unfortunately, most of the Bruins players weren't born yet when you were building your hate.

 

[BB79]

Who’s WiFi ?

I think it's that Xhekblah guy on Montreal. Hopefully he drops his signal tonight

I still have nightmares about that game. New York rangers were waiting the winner of this game to battle for lord Stanley. Bruins would have polished the rangers in 5 games and Don would have had his cup

I'd like to believe that we can't possibly play worse than last game.....

I don’t think the team is in game speed shape. They were constantly behind the play all preseason and it carried over to game 1. The defence was slow and very soft.

Haha ok I thought so but never heard that but I live in a bubble

Wrong.
Wrong.

Paid them back? Hardly.

The Canadiens have won the Stanley Cup IN BOSTON more times than the Bruins have. How, my good man, have the Bruins returned that favor?

I hope the Bruins annihilate them by three touchdowns tonight.

 

[DoubleBack]

But they just changed coaches two years ago. And the guy they let go won the Cup.

When the Bruins philosophy is to NOT fire a coach because he hurt a players feelings, then they will be on to something.

 

[Caper Bruins fan]

Is there going to be any pregame stuff ? I wonder what time puck drop will be ?

 

[gerrycheeversmask]

If the Bruins win a single game in October, it better be this one!

 

[Dennis Bonvie]

That 1958 Cup win in Boston still bothering you? Tom Johnson, who coached the 1972 Bruins to the Cup, played on that Montreal team.

How about the 1930 Cup? Friends still razz you about Howie Morenz being better than Eddie Shore?

True, but with the size they added they're trying to go from small and fast to big and fast. That might take some time to adjust. Unfortunately the "smart" aspect they really can't do anything about so we'll just have to see.
