Pre-Game Talk: Game 35 - 12/21 - 7pm ET - On the 7th Day of Christmas... Bruins vs. Buffalo

Watched the recap of last nights game and on both the tying and winning goals it looked like a dumb, lazy change preceded them. Kinda pissed me off. Anyone else see this ?

I saw it last night in person. I even yelled out in overtime for him to get his ass off. I was pissed before they even scored. Not hard to take 3 strides to get off the ice. Watch Pasta, his line changes are historically lazy and his teammates need to call him out for it! Otherwise I thought they played another solid game.

That’s usually due to an inability to get pucks deep into the zone that causes f***ed up line changes. I think the forwards are trying to do too much to carry it in the zone when the play isn’t there.

I'm convinced he has photos or something. No way he should still be in the lineup.

He's American.

Marchand set the precedent in game 7 of 2019

How does Tampa have FOUR games in hand on the Bruins??? The scheduling in this league is goofy at best

YIKES, seems like the perfect storm tonight. First home game after a long, hard (successful) road trip. A goalie who hasn't played in 9 days, and a frustrated Sabres team that may be ready to end their losing ways.
Sacco needs to have the team ready to go from the git-go.
Intravenous , oxygen on the bench and a "TENS Unit" built into the butt of their hockey pants with a remote control for Sacco to zing them awake if/when the need arises.
Otherwise, they'd better be ready.
