No business getting a point out of this game, never mind 2. Horrid effort almost all the way through. They need to be treating Ullmark to a Swedish deep tissue at the spa of his choice and a nice steak dinner.

You have to earn everything. This isn't the WHL or the AHL , this is tìhe NHL . Jake is not a rookie. Should have his shit together by now. If you can't get it together in a contract season , I don't know what to say to you.
Geekie has been one of the hardest working forwards on the team of late and he's starting to produce. I'm curious to see if he'll keep responding to the added responsibility and ice time.
In Quebec City on a mini vacation (lovely place to visit) but I missed most of this one tonight. Got to at least watch the shootout. Guess I’ll have to watch some highlights.
The W was most important, and he got that at least. I do agree with you though
Again. Nobody is saying anything less. But man, we just won a game and less than 20 seconds later you're complaining about Jake like he alone is a problem on this team.
Contract year. Lost his top center. Trying to find chemistry with other players but hasn't been on any line long enough to develop chemistry. How can we see which center he gels with if Monty is constantly changing them multiple times a game?

One of North America' safest places. Lowest crime rate in Canada. Boring as f*** but that's besides the point. Super safe.
Loved that game… it was like a beer league game where the old guys gutted it out. Shatty and JVR… Pasta was NOT to be denied
Geek is looking like the player I was hoping for
This is an issue.
Felger and others used to b**** about entrenched lines under Claude Julien and Bruce Cassidy. I agreed, though there were reasons for that.
It's relatively early, but it's not that early. We're past the first third of the season, and no one I know can name the first two lines. Maybe not even lines three or four. And that's because Montgomery changes them up in game on the fly constantly.
I understand the impulse and I largely agree. But at some point you have to set things in a stable direction. That hasn't happened as yet.
I don't like what Montgomery has done with Matt either.
Unfair, but I am not a fan of Jim Montgomery at present.
We'll see.

Absolute domination from the Bruins
Bailed out Ullmark with a weak .892 save %
Scratch poitras every game

Oh come on. That's a bullshit card to play. You have been defending JDB beyond reason. To play the we just won card when your hero had nothing to do with it is beyond ridiculous . I think you can tell by now I generally respect your takes but you should find another horse to bet on before you go broke.
Obviously the injuries and lack of depth doesn't make it any easier but yea as far as the lines go it seems like now that we are a third the way into the season other teams' lines have gelled and show chemistry when alot of times the Bruins just don't and end up getting outplayed shift by shift and end up relying on random breakdowns by the opposing team to try and capitalize on.
Apologies for the giant run-on sentence.

not sure why it monty so long to try him at the bumper. meanwhile he switches the forward lines every 5 minutes
Try speech to text. It's a lifesaver!
Especially if you hate your phone, and IT in general, as I do.
It also annoys others, which helps,
Joker, look I have no issues with anyone calling out Jake. I have been doing the same. We get it. I get it. You get it. He gets it. He needs to score. I'm not the only one who sees the good in everything else he's doing. If you don't see that, that's fine. I don't defend him beyond reason. I know that's the stereotype on here about me. But I thought this was a team game? So Jake didn't score in the SO or the game so he had nothing to do with the win? I find that ridiculous.
I think we need to stop shifting the lines and get some stability to see where Jake fits first. Monty constantly shifts the lines every game, multiple times a game. There needs to be some consistency here. Especially when we need Jake to get going. I've been fair about Jake. Go search my name on here. Especially about Jake. Misconceptions galore that I blindly defend him. Not the case. I respect you as a poster. I have no issues with you.

I love kevin shattenkirk what a bargain at a million. Nice signing by Donny!
I think Tim Thomas had a couple way back in the beginning. We were awful.
