Post-Game Talk: GAME 24 - WINNER WINNER FISHSTICKS DINNER - BRUINS 6 Islanders 3

[PlayMakers]

In the playoffs on American Thanksgiving. You go to war with the Army that you have. Glass half full, and at least we are not the Toronto 67’s (pun intended). Let’s go.

Technically, the Sabres are in and we're out. They have a .523 win pct and we have a .521 win pct.

Glass half full: we're so close.
Glass half empty: close only counts in horse shoes and hand grenades.

If I’m not mistaken, the stats you see on this don’t use points percentage though.

If we traded Coyle I think it would wake up the rest of the roster. He's the one dragging Freddy down.

I like the 4th line but sick of them being sacred cows that can't be split up. Surprised Sacco is just as stubborn about that.

Frederic is dragging himself down.

I'm happy for Geekie especially.
Last few weeks he didn't know whether to put his jock on or send it out to get it washed.
Good all around game should help his confidence.

The Thanksgiving thing is really arbitrary anyway. It's a... Sample size. Not a prediction.

Off topic but here are stats from former Bruins/current Hawks tonight:

Hall - 3G
Bert - 2A
Donato, Smith, Maroon - 1A

Hall has been reading the board here

Just a snapshot in time. I like using it on the occasions when it operates in our favor.

Holding sway.

Oh, of course! I hadn't even thought of that.


Well, no. I know nothing about USA Hockey rules, I just wasn't considering the race aspect at all - bit of an unusual situation.

The race now is to the dots. Used to race the whole way, but too many injuries. I remember Pat Peake with the Washington Capitals shattered his ankle in multiple places racing to the end boards to touch the puck first. IIRC, he never played again.
