[Mantis]

Interesting lines. Hopefully Heinen does something.

 

[bobbyorr04]

If the B's bring their "A" game tonight for 60 minutes, then good things will happen.

 

[ap3lovr]

No Hayes? I don't believe it.

[Caper Bruins fan]

Looking forward to this one , I am off so I get to enjoy it on my big screen as compared to watching it at 2 am on my phone at work . Bruins are due for a win . Bergeron returns to form with two goals tonight .

 

[KnightofBoston]

Bruins should win this one. Last game against the leafs was embarrassing so hopefully they want blood

 

[TMac21]

4 1 Bs with an empty netter.

Good to see Heinen get another look.

 

[VanIsle]

Clode must be reading the boards with these forward lineups. I like it alot.

Big win tonight for the Bs its time for a blowout game.

6-1 Bruins Pasta takes over the goal scoring lead.

Seems like Bergeron usually has a good game against Toronto. Hope that's the case.

I think Pasta is due for a hat trick. You know, since he's been slacking off so much lately and all.

 

[CptxMorgan]

Czarnik could help Spooner with his game, I think. Another speedy, skilled forward.

 

[Mpasta]

Does the 4th line get more icetime than the 3rd line tonight?

 

[22Brad Park]

Colin Miller should never sit for Kevin Miller.NEVER.

 

[Bridges31]

No Hayes? I don't believe it.

Must be a misprint. Maybe they're trying him on defense tonight

Must be a misprint. Maybe they're trying him on defense tonight

If it gets Kevin Miller out of Boston sign me up.8) 8) Worst d men I ever saw.

 

[Emerz]

I wanna see us score like 5 tonight, and for pasta to get some reasonable PP time.

Danton Heinen, who posted 7-6-13 totals in 3 games in Providence

Hilarious misprint that made me do a double take.

 

[BruinLVGA]

No Hayes! It's an early Christmas present!!!

That third line, with Spooner & Czarnik, looks to be a speedy one.

 

[Sharp Shooting Neely]

The clip of the toronto fans enduring misery following the epic game 7 OT goal against the leafs never gets old. Its very easy to relate to the misery though in you have been around long enough.

Time to get on track tonight boys.

Let's Go Bruins!

 

[Sharp Shooting Neely]

NHL world taking notice of Pasta. Attached article is from TSN's Scott Cullen. Some mighty nice words of praise and interesting comparisons to other players. Good Read.

Outside of Pasta the team as been struggling to score. Plenty of other players including some prominent scorers are in the same boat so far this season.
