Post-Game Talk: GAME 37 - UGH The cannon fired SIX times

[Bruinfanatic]

No playoffs for this team. Too inconsistent and not enough scoring. They are a 20th place team tops this season

I don’t believe there are 8 other teams in the East that are more,consistent than the Bruins so they will get in.

 

[GordonHowe]

Ouch.

Chalk it up to Holiday hangover, no practice, etc. They should be ready tomorrow,

Pittsburgh with Crosby, Malkin, Letang isn't far behind them. That's a team capable of finishing ahead of them. With the way Swayman, McAvoy, Carlo are playing the supposed strength of the team isn't there. This team isn't very good and its who they are.

 

[Thomas 11]

Move on. Not good enough tonight. They know it , we know it, everyone knows it. Respond tomorrow and tonight will be forgotten.

 

[KWbruin]

I'm so happy we have Charlie McAvoy for 4 more years and at 9.5 million he's such a bargain.

He's had some strong efforts ... but also a lot of nights like tonight - complete trainwreck.

 

[Colt.45Orr]

Columbus fans may want to watch this.


Not as happy as I am having Zad for 5 more seasons.

You guys are seriously complaining about our top pairing that were + players in a 6-2 loss.

[Babajingo]

Man, Korp was serving up rebounds like crazy.

Horrible game for McAvoy and Carlo (as usual).

Trent Sighting:

I like Mac but the powerplay struggles alot because of him ..I miss Bourque Good note Marchand keeps pt streak alive right ?

 

[Terrier]

Thank god for the Latvia-Canada game, took my mind off tonight's debacle, at least temporarily.

I think they're more like a Jekyll/Hyde kinda team ..or even bi-polar

when they lose...they don't f**k around

 

[The don godfather]

Get back on the horse next game. No worries.

Goalie made 54 stops then slammed door shut in shootout

 

[Blitzkrug]

Turned it off after 4-1 to watch the WJC.

At this point i'm just going to stop pretending i understand this team. When i think i "get" it, they completely 180.

Hopefully they come out a bit pissy/motivated tomorrow night for the rematch.

 

[bobbyorr04]

Get back on the horse next game. No worries.

That's all they can do

..let's just hope they'll be riding a better horse

 

[Olden McGroin]

 

[22Brad Park]

Not joking one bit saying Sacco should make them rewatch that game before they meet tomorrow night.

 

[The Hockey Tonk Man]

All you can really hope for now is Lindholm to come back from injury in 2022-2023 form & go on a run.

Teams so flat

 

[bruins19]

I have never understood this. Everyone knows what time the game starts. Everyone in the room is getting ready pre-game. If you weren’t ready in the room, how are then you not getting ready mentally as you walk down the tunnel? Time to go to work. Holy s.

 

[BigGoalBrad]

I just want a veteran traded.

 

[Aeroforce]

My guess is that over the layoff, there are two types of players:

1) Those who enjoy the break, but at least do things on their own time to keep their bodies in shape and their minds sharp.

2) Those who completely tune out hockey, indulge in food and beverage, and think when play resumes, they can just hit a switch.

We saw both tonight.

It's a bit odd, as it was only three days. With Christmas on Wednesday, Monday vs. the Caps seems like an eternity ago; but it wasn't.

So I'll give them a mulligan on tonight, as long as Saturday they are back to where they were.

 

[BiteThisBurrows]

This team is just such a pile of garbage when they fall behind early. The lack of high end scoring talent really shows and they fall apart. Lack of speed, lack of skill, complete collapse any time the opposition scores early and plays with speed.

Wahlstrom is useless. Another desperation shot in the dark from Sweeney that amounts to nothing. No better than Johnson was. Maybe worse. I can see why the Islanders waived him, he brings nothing.

One thing that really stood out was I don't think I've ever seen anybody look as ineffective as Lindholm looked on the PK after he gave Carlo his stick. The way he played that he'd have been better off sprinting to the bench and back and taking that chance cause what he was doing there was amazingly horrible.

The third line? Brazeau is a complementary player who has a limited skill set (reach and net front possession) but he's only effective playing with higher skilled players. On that current third line he's useless and Freddy needs to be traded if we even can,. The line without Coyle is now completely useless.

idk, some people are playoff confident, but if Ottawa keeps surging and Columbus plays well we could still fall right out of this thing.

Columbus has more skill and speed and is just better than the Bruins. Simple as that. They are a young team on the rise and the Bruins are a team on the decline, perhaps only hanging in there and over achieving some nights due to veteran savvy and a strong team culture. The lack of talent is glaring.

 

[bwunderlich]

Thinking if Sway gave up a six-pack the thread would be a tad different.

Bottom line, lacking several high-end players, your PP and PK better be Top 10 or at least Top 15.
Both units, in the parlance of Spaceballs The Movie, have gone from suck to blow and visa versa all season.

What's so hard to understand? They had a holiday hangover and were playing an opponent that is hard to get up for. If ever we were going to lay an egg, this game was it.

Yeah, that was something else.

I'd take Wahlstrom over Frederic.
