I don’t think they’re managing the goalies well. Korpi hasn’t played in a while after some wins and hot starts. I don’t care how much they paid Swayman - they need to ride the hot hand and send messages and keep it competitive. Looked like Korpi had to dust off the cob webs to start this game but he did settle in and keep them in it till it got out of hand. But he was still making some unorthodox desperation looking saves and save attempts like he wasn’t completely comfortable.

I can see Monty looking at his computer screen and doing an Irish jig on his desk in St. Louis.


And it makes me puke.

It just proves that it doesn't matter who coaches this team. The results will be the same. There's no substitute for talented players. Thanks DS.

I think what Swayman did ruined this team and I was a big fan of his prior to his hold out.

It wasn't good what Swayman pulled but he didn't cause all our D to be useless! He didn't put Geekie on the top line, or Brazzeau in the top 6, or not make a trade when half this team should be in the AHL!

That's fine but the issue here is guys sliding pucks on backhand into the slot where team mates are waiting to hammer it into the Bruins net.The coverage is AHL level right now no matter who plays nets.The talent up front is littered with bottom 6 guys as well.Just my 2 cents but the Bruins are chasing a couple playoff gates at best.

Jake DB isn't walking thru that door, neither are Bergeron or Bobby Orr.
Jake didn't want to be here. IMO they should've gotten a high draft pick
for him or a player of value from Vancouver in the calendar year before he left and moved on.
Anyway, he was done here and the Bruins couldn't force him to stay so'
time to get over him.

Been sick all week....vicious cold /sinus infection. But I did watch all of the game... didn't make me feel better. Brad's goal was awesome.

PAREE was played....what a waste of electricity and bandwidth. I just love that song!!!!

Korpi and Kastelic are close. Brazeau too. They've been 3 of the better players. The rest of them, especially McAvoy, Pasta, and are shockingly bad.
Coyle, not great, not the worse but expendable IMO if you can get a high draft pick but IMO he's here for the duration of his contract.
Geekie, and Freddy- expendable.

What Swayman did should be considered a white collar crime.

Say those three players are standing out tells you just how bad the rest of the team has played. At least Marchand seems to have gotten his game back.

To steal a line from the Rocky franchise (paraphrased) - this team with all the weddings and and babies being born has had the worse thing that could happen to a group of competitors ... they've "become civilized." ... they've become domesticated.

Thanks, and once Swayman decided that he's a super star goaltender I would've traded him and moved on. He held Sweeney up IMO and I also think Marchand talked to him and he told Brad to mind his own business.
If true (and my ever expanding gut says it is) I don't think that sits well with
the rest of the guys.
Marchand has basically taken whatever they offered him and never complained.
It has to disgust him IMO.

When they said that "Elias Lindholm isn't on the bench" I said a prayer that Sweeney found a sucker to take him even if it means eating some salary.
He's a guy who's earning a quarter of his pay if that.
If DS doesn't make a trade or three then he should just let it
ride out and clean house at the TDL.
