I'd sign to him a extension right now and hopefully get a el cheapo aav. The guys got quite the nose for the net.Probably nothing longer than 2-3 years and no aav higher than $3M.
He's turning 34 right now.

I think you are right. San Jose certainly outworked Boston, but their talent level is terrible, they had multiple point blank chances they shanked on. A good team is not whiffing those, yeah our goalies are good and still could bail them out, but at least those teams will get their shots off where San Jose literally whiffed.I mean, possibly.
I’m just saying that I don’t think it’s outrageous to be a bit critical of their play last night, despite getting a win.
I think that if they approach playoff teams the same way they approached the Sharks, it’ll be a recipe for disaster.
The last 5 minutes of the game last night were an absolute shit show.
It’s early, I think they’ll be better but yeah. Just haven’t really been impressed with them so far. They’ll need time to gel, and I understand that.
The backcheck is what I remember most about the game. He played like a leader last night.JVR-Coyle-Freddie were absolute money last night. I think you could well be right. Size, puck management, nice passing, and JVR is like a bloodhound around the goal mouth.
Zacha was also absolute money last night. If you watch one thing, it's worth watching him backcheck on a 2-1 last night when B's pinched. It was in the second. Real effort and speed. Impressive.
Same.
I'll never complain about a win, but that game was a stinker. But hey, at least they're winning while they figure it out, could be worse
Zacha's game may have been one of the best I've seen for a forward who didn't put up a point.
Coyle also took a dumb offensive zone penalty a couple of minutes into th 3rd period.
Again, surprised by how good Shattekirk looked. Very heady with the puck.
Would like to see Debrusk start on his breakout, salary driven season.
As usual, lucky to have Ullmark in net.
Exactly. The level of play some folks expect despite turnover in very key roles is laughable. It takes time to build chemistry together. Let's allow it and see how it goes? In the meantime, they're still winning, so I don't get what's to nit pick.It’s the third game. They have a turnover going on. It’s an adjustment. Your not going to see last year.
Half of which were Bruins fans. I wouldn't be surprised if it's a normal thing and their team not giving a shit at some point? It must be tough getting psyched for a game playing there.In fairness, it must be a little tough traveling cross the country and waiting 5 days to play a team with 2 players 80% of fans would recognize, in front of a raucous 7,500 people.
I'm considering going to tomorrow's game but kinda on the fence about it.
I have a stubhub credit and there are decent seats available (even cheaper than available tickets for Sunday in Anaheim), but the prospect of driving to downtown LA, finding parking, paying a ton for parking, paying for food, driving back at night, it's a lot of logistics that I don't think I feel up for dealing with, I may just watch the game from home and be just as happy. But it could be my only chance to see Looch and I've always wanted to go to Staples Center, so I don't know.
He's not suddenly going to get fast. He never was very fast and for a few years now he's looked really slow. He has learned to economize and he knows where to go so I don't think he's useless. We need him for what he brings but that won't be needed every night or against every team. I want him ready for the playoffs that's the main thing.Definitely past Potsey's bedtime... You're right though regarding the body clock and also too many days in between games. NHL scheduling is absolutely dogshit.
Or, the rust settled in with Lucic over 5 days. Hopefully he has a much better game against his old team.
And very injury-prone. A 3 year extension would be insane.Probably nothing longer than 2-3 years and no aav higher than $3M.

If I’m the Bruins and he has a decent year, I’m always thinking 1 year deal. Someone else may give him more.And very injury-prone. A 3 year extension would be insane.
I have done the Calif trip 3 times (because of my kid).i had the exact same thought process - Staples center is fun but driving there has never been a pleasant process for me. I was at the game where boston beat the kings 7-0 and freddy beat up lemieux though, that was a blast.
Probably going to end up at the anaheim game instead
