Time for the B's front office to start thinking beyond plan A.
Get into the dance and you never know. Ullmark becomes hulk mode and they take off.I see a team that can't score and a D that can't out muscle anyone.
Maybe there is something going around or they are just in a rut. I hope so.
If not. time to start wheeling and dealing. I'm afraid they are still going to be in it by the deadline and they will add some 65 yr old lead foot for a 3rd round pick or something.
But hey, like management keeps saying: The fans won't accept a rebuild. I guess I'm not a fan.
With this logic the San Jose sharks will be challenging for the presidents trophy with all the adversity they are seeing in the first half of the season.This is what adversity looks like and they will be better down the stretch for it.
The thing I'll say for Geekie is at least he's creating and getting involved in scoring chances. 6 SOG in a game where no other forward other than Pasta could muster more than 1 is a good return. Shame he couldn't pot another, but he's a bottom 6 forward for a reason and lack of finish is basically a prerequisite for being signed by Sweeney. He's got a good motor though and he competes consistently. Been far and away one of the better performers of the last 2-3 weeks. As a centre, despite the faceoff issues, he's definitely outplayed Coyle of late. Good for him, but otherwise that's a problem both for Charlie and the Bruins as a whole.
The only thing I really notice there after all this is the Bruins are in first.There are red flags everywhere right now with this team except the goalies.
50 games left in the regular season and it appears other teams have figured out how to beat us.
I agree with this . Simply put they are not an overly talented team . Everyone needs to bring there A game for them to win. Most fans expected them to struggle this year at the moment they are. As fans we need to be patient and hope they can get it together. Come February fist it will be time for management to be finished evaluating and starting to make decisions for both the present and the future of the Bruins.They will figure it out. I think this break will help huge team looks gassed.
Hopefully they still in top 3 in Atlantic. If so add on deadline but dont break the bank get a Marcus Johanssen type and roll the dice.I agree with this .

With guys upfront lucic and Thornton that team had to be the toughest in history. A mean machine.This team has zero identity.
Remember when teams hated playing the Bruins? They knew they’d be getting smacked around. Going into the corners. Right now other teams are laughing because nothing will happen.
McQuaid
Miller
Chara
Boychuk
Ference
The weakest of that batch would walk us like a dog.
We are the team we used to make fun of.
The worst part is. Those teams would bully this bruins team out of the arena.
I am not sure they have the resources required to add at deadline.Hopefully they still in top 3 in Atlantic. If so add on deadline but dont break the bank get a Marcus Johanssen type and roll the dice.

Next year. 25 million to spend. Other than Heinen I let all the other UFA's walkI am not sure they have the resources required to add at deadline.
Didn’t say it sucks when they win. The goalie hug thing needs to go away now. Overdone, childish and embarrassing at this point.
