I’m expecting a ton of diving from Detroit tonight.
The refs IMO seem to be giving home teams the majority of PP's. Not sure if right or wrong but tonight unfortunately I expect the B's will get them (penalties) early and often.
I would also like to see Korpi in net again tonight. Let his confidence/ego inflate a little bit more with another win under his belt.
Mr. 8.25 has enough ego to last him all season ++.

While I do not agree, I do find this funny

Did you miss the lockeroom fake news?


I would ride the hot hand until he loses. Long contract for Sway he will be ok.


The pyramids, who shot JFK and how does Steve Yzerman still have a job are my three greatest mysteries
I don't think Yzerman has been that bad when you consider Detroit had nothinggggggggg when he took over outside of Larkin.

Had to rebuild that farm system from scratch and the roster which explains all of his FA signings. The couple high picks he's gotten made the roster, still leaving the farm pretty barren. Did he overpay for Chariot and Copp? Sure, but that's what happens when you're left with nothing and have to start from step 1.

..Outside of Holl, that is... That one is bad no matter how you spin it.

Yeah but you can send a message to him. Letting know that maybe he should put in the extra work before handing a start.
You don't think behind the scenes he is working away at his craft after getting pretty well shamed so far? Like it or not the Bruins have committed alot of money to him so we all need to hope he gets it going.

In Grand Rapids for a Sunday Griffins game where people can bring their dogs....my friend is a HUGE Red Wings fan.... She's watching the Red Wing-Avs documentary about the fights - Detroit has milked that shit for years...

Makes me hate the RWs more....

Go BRUINS...

Interested to see if McAvoy takes steps forward. in his pregame interview last game he seemed the least concerned about Monty's removal. in the minute cut he didn't say a single good thing about Monty to my recollection, which makes me think he wasn't happy with him.

Lay off of him.

Mac is emotional on the ice but when it comes to the media, you get matter of fact, even keeled McAvoy most nights.

Monty getting fired seemed to actually stun the guys. I truly believe they thought someone was getting traded.

McAvoy has always shot it straight with the media. No word salad but because he’s so matter of fact, what he’s saying can be a bit head scratching at times.

When it comes to Charlie McAvoy, I never question his work ethic, his leadership, his love for his teammates, the organization, the fans and the City of Boston. He 100% gets it.

Not happy with Swayman getting the start.

Korpi tosses a shut out and his reward is riding the bench? Bullshit.
i would have played Korpi too but with back to backs Tues and Wed. and Black Friday, Sway has to play .

5 days between starts isn’t good for any goalie. Let’s see what he does tonight,

Do we know he didn’t. Im not being an ass genuinely dont know
Don't you think there would be tweets if Swayman was on the ice early or staying after to take shots or to work on things . Hell I've haven't even heard if he was out for the optional skate. The only thing I've seen so far is his Figure skating routine.
