The Bruins had better give it their best today after the lackadaisical "effort" yesterday. I hope JVR is back in the lineup and if Pasta needs some time off, give it to him now. Three games in 4 days can take a toll.

Trouba will be hunting Bruins, I hope the boys are ready, especially Poitras. How about some physicality to start the game and set the tone?

Don't frustrate us two days in a row! Get a regulation win, don't ruin our Saturdays!!

 

[Ladyfan]

Ok...Please show up for this game. It starts at 1:08.

No injuries.

Hey Steve, I hope the Bruins win today.

HERE WE GO BRUINS... HERE WE GO

 

[smithformeragent]

In a cap league, what fanbase isn’t yearning for a top 6 forward?

Or maybe it’s a top 4 defenseman, or a legitimate goaltender.

The Bruins aren’t as good as their record, and yet they’ve managed to find a way most nights.

Off night last night, and now an immediate opportunity to right the ship.

Couldn’t ask for more.

 

[Blowfish]

Please re-insert Steen, JVR, and Grizzly Bear.

 

[Bradely]

Heads up boys. Stellar goaltending. Bruins will win this one.

 

[Terrier]

Good morning from Manhattan, will be in section 208 today, section 119 tonight. Spent a long afternoon at Stout bar watching the B's, then the wild UMass-Harvard game. Both B's and Rangers on a back-to-back, otherwise I would be very worried.

Going to be missing this one. Today is my Uncles funeral. I might dvr it. Hopefully it'll cheer me up. I don't do funerals. And if I could skip it I would. I just get too depressed and sad. But I'm going to push through and honor my Uncle. Send some good vibes and prayers my way.

That being said. Just win. No injuries.



You already know the drill

They took the game off yesterday. Best not to do it today against these guys.

I think the Rangers win 4-1

Happy to see JVR back in

 

[the negotiator]

a matinee game after Thanksgiving is always problematic but today against the Rangers should be more objective look at the Bs

it's still early in the season but this type of match- up (original six, versus hot team after a loss) can be a good way of getting a handle and more importantly beginning to identify where there are needs to tinker/ upgrade

should be interesting

 

[Orr Fourever]

F Trouba.
F Goodrow.
F the Ranger.
Bruins roll...

 

[The Andrew Peeke Fan]

I think Beecher could stand to watch a game or 2, although I've been pretty pleased with him in most games.

 

[UncleRico]

F Trouba.
F Goodrow.
F the Ranger.
Bruins roll...

I would love Trouba on this team

Your impressed with him but he should sit?

 

[quietbruinfan]

I think the Rangers win 4-1

Agreed...............................................

 

[TP70BruinsCup]

With this team this year I wouldn’t be surprised to see them win 4-1 and dominate the Rangers. They play well after they lay an egg, like yesterday. What I would really like to see is a game where we don’t need to have our goalies save our bacon. Dominate the play vs the key stone cops at times in our own end too. Hope the big boys really have a big game today (Jake, Pasta, The Captain and the two Chuckie’s)

Let’s go Bruins!

 

[friendofcharliecoyle]

If the bruins take a ton of penalties they might lose but otherwise I’d say we have a fairly good chance of winning. Fully healthy lineup and we haven’t had two really bad games in a row in years basically? Also quick is definitely mortal, despite the fact that he’s played great for them in like 6 games. Last year he was looking like it was time to retire. He’s bound to have a bad game eventually. It could be today.

 

[ODAAT]

I think Beecher could stand to watch a game or 2, although I've been pretty pleased with him in most games.

I`ll respectfully disagree, kid`s done nothing to earn a seat upstairs

 

[Orr Fourever]

I would love Trouba on this team

So would I. But he ain't. So f him....

 

[friendofcharliecoyle]

Agreed...............................................

Every time you make this prediction they win, so I say keep bringing the doom
