BRUINS GDT GAME 24 7:38 PM - THE BEAR chases turkeys at Belmont Park - NESN, ESPN+, 98.5 WBZ-FM

[KnightofBoston]

The floodgates will open eventually. This team needs to sustain the defensive effort while they build chemistry. Don’t get discouraged about losses like last night. Incredibly frustrating, the definition of even, but you just have to keep pushing forward and building those good habits

This

as a whole, that was probably their best full game effort this season. Am I concerned they couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn? You bet. But if they are playing like that most nights then at least there are no what if’s.

 

[KillerMillerTime]

McAvoy is by far having the worst production of his career right now. If you want to make the bet that at 26 years old he is on the decline, I think it’s about as good of a bet that raising tariffs won’t raise prices.

You have your opinion and I have mine. Like always time will tell, not bets.

Thanks! I needed a dose of optimism today!

 

[MarchysNoseKnows]

Who is saying he is the key stone of the return? I "suggested" 3 parts with Schneider, Kreider and NYR #1 for purposes of discussion.

If you think its a better than 50\50 chance McAvoy with Boston has had his best days its not heresy to suggest a move.

The Athletic pegs McAvoy’s trade value as the fourth highest among defensemen, and 15th overall. A late first, an aging power forward with a big AAV, and Braden Schneider isn’t close to the ballpark you’d want to get if you traded him. It’s trading a quarter for two nickels and a bag of pucks.

man do I wish I had your optimism. I see a team that has far too many underperforming. For my money, I`d move out Freddy and Geeks , two dudes contributing zippo

Marked improvement defensively and I do see a bit more zip throughout the team but this is beyond worrisome for this fan, team can`t score, hell, even our scorer Pasta can`t score

 

[Roll 4 Lines]

Well they fixed the defence. Next step: fix the offence!

Edit: "You really should wear more sweaters". One of the great lines in tv history. Up there with "I'm with the firm Emerson . . Lake . . . . . . and Palmer" and "As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly".

And don't forget: "Ward, don't you think you were a little hard on the Beaver last night?"

 

[22Brad Park]

I remember that fight.
Hagler got screwed.
We need a scorer on every line.
This will be another 2-1 game like the Red Wings score.
Pass on Frankie.
Want us to trade for Mangy ( Mangiapane) on the Capitals, maybe he and Lindholm can find that magic they had on the Flames in 2021-2022?

Hard pass.I watched him long enough here in Calgary to know that's a band-aid solution.

 

[bruinmann77]

Team better find some scoring

 

[HockeyMomx2]

C'mon boys, give us something with this team to be Thankful for tomorrow

 

[WestCoastBruinsFan]

My daughter wanted to go to this game tonight and I told her not to bother. They just are not playing well enough to pay the money. She is now looking at the Rangers game in Boston just into the New Year.

 

[bruinsfan1968]

As Pasta goes, so go the Bruins.

He's on pace for his worst season since he was a teenager.

And his overall play certainly isn't inspiring any of his teammates.

You seem happy that he is having a down season, hell the whole team is, and you're dancing on their grave!
Pathetic!

No offense, but you don't know what you are talking about.

What in the world would make you think I am happy about Pasta having a terrible year?

Simply pointing out what I see in response to all the excuse makers.

Not sure there’s much water backed up to cause any flooding unfortunately.

 

[weaponomega]

McAvoy hasn't even reached his peak yet and we're already talking he's in decline? good grief

 

[Sheppy]

I wonder what will happen if the Bruins come out tonight, put 30 shots on net and have 1 goal and lose 3-1.

Something has to give, right?

 

[22Brad Park]

He is far from the Bruins biggest problems but can't be the #1 option quarterbacking the powerplay.

 

[CDJ]

Just keep firing rubber at the net, getting to the dirty areas, and playing to the whistle and you’ll earn some puck luck

Last night was a loss but it’s how they need to play to win. Smothering on defense. Lankinen was just up to the challenge and they didn’t get any luck around the net

 

[IveGotToBeMe]

I know everyone is wanting to move Frederic and Geekie and while I don't disagree, their trade value is miniscule at the moment and they'd probably fetch more at the deadline. That said, I'm afraid we don't have the luxury of waiting that long.

 

[bobbyorr04]

PLEASE score some goals!!

..that's all I got

 

[nORRis8]

I'm quite optimistic we will losee will loseill lose.
