Gobble Gobble

Pasta with a pair, our boys get back on track with a 4-2 W

 

[Sheppy]

Ehhhhh. 3-2 win in OT.

 

[Bruinswillwin77]

Not feeling too good about these next couple games with Z out

 

[Jean_Jacket41]

Big divisionnal game against a team the Bruins will likely fight for a playoffs spot. They win tonight and get right back in front of Ottawa in 3rd place in the division.

Pasta back but Chara out... Another big game from Rask will be needed.

Go Bruins!

Let's hope Kevan Miller isn't the same trainwreck on skates the first 3 or 4 games post-injury that McQuaid was.

I am the opposite of thankful to see him back in the line-up.

 

[Sheppy]

I hope Kevan Miller has a good game.

We don't even know if he is playing tonight

 

[NDiesel]

Hopefully with Pasta back Hayes finally sits a game.

With that said, Hayes has surprisingly gotten better the past couple games...not that he had anywhere to go but up.

 

[northeastern]

Woo pasta on Thanksgiving

 

[BruinDust]

We don't even know if he is playing tonight

Which implies he's not exactly 100%.

And if he's not, he shouldn't be in there. Period.

This isn't some star player were talking about here the Bruins desperately need back in the line-up at all costs.

If a Kevan Miller isn't 100% ready to go, and you have a perfectly capable healthy D man available (Colin or anyone for that matter), you don't force a Kevan Miller level guy into the line-up. Just roll with the healthy guy.

 

[ashnathan]

Feels like everytime we play the Sens we're missing a key player or players. Not feeling that confident with Chara out of the loop. Means Carlo will probably be below his seasons standards and thats just another blow. Wonder if theyll cone out with fire, this team embarrassed them at home to end last season. Show some heart.

 

[Blowfish]

No Hayes?

 

[Caper Bruins fan]

Bruins eke out a win 2-1.

 

[Blowfish]

Noooooo Kurelay assigned to providence

 

[TMac21]

4-2 Boston.

 

[bolt thrower]

Noooooo Kurelay assigned to providence

Wtf? What does Hayes have that others don't?

 

[Sheppy]

Jimmy Hayes could be a -9 tonight and still play tomorrow night.

 

[Sheppy]

That clip of Rinaldo beating the holy hell out of a 6'3'', 230 pound Dave Dziurzynski was gold.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Needs to be a 7-5 win with no Z. Poor Tuukka. Go Bs. Let's see a brawl....... ha.

 

[Sheppy]

The last time the Bruins played the Senators, the game was chippy as hell. Miller/McQuaid/Backes/Beleskey should all come out and set a tone early. I can't remember the last time the Bruins threw a remotely big hit.

Morrow leveled someone his first game back from being scratched. It wasn't HUGE, but it was still a pretty big open ice hit

I do. he got suspended for it.

 

[Jean_Jacket41]

Noooooo Kurelay assigned to providence

Too bad. Loved his skating. Was continually tracking the puck and had a couple of nice hits and play. Doesn't look like he has much hands but for a 4th line, he looked good for the part. Thought he was playing well.

Must mean Acciari is close to come back?
