They are getting harder and harder to watch for sure. Every game same basic script.

They are so incredibly inept in the offensive zone it's almost laughable. Can't pass, can't shoot, can't aim, but boy can they make opposing goalies look like stars.

Same old song almost every game.

No finish. Sacco needs to come up with a plan of attack when the Bruins have the puck in the offensive zone.

Watched the last two periods, after sleeping through the first. They outworked a listless Ranger team, but Quick was very good.

The slower players, Brazeau and Coyle struggled. Fourth line and Marchy weren't great either. There is a noticeable lack of skill from the D. Basically none of their shots were threatening.
On the plus side Pasta worked like a dog and Peeke played a bit over his head. I also think Lindholm is figuring out some things. His legs are still good.

As for Frederic, he had a couple decent shifts interwoven with shifts where he floated and dumped. GET HIM OUT OF HERE!

That's all for now.

There should not joking around especially when they played down to another opponent. This is a middle team at best and for the love of it DS should never give up a 1st especially with where the team Might pick
And when they do get a first, they draft a 6'6" C who looks like he will struggle to crack a 4th line in the AHL

I didn't like seeing guys joking around on the bench in the third period. Or Swayman having a laugh with the ref during a stoppage with 2 minutes left.

Looks like they have gotten used to losing.

Don't think 100-year-old Harry could scare them anymore, but maybe Cam could take a shot at a locker room visit.

This. It grinds my gears how the team laughs and doesn't care when things are going bad. I bet they'll all be served hot meals and play a game of cards on the flight home. If I was GM I'd tell them to find there own way home. Walk back to Boston or pay for your own flight

This team just isn't fun anymore. We've been spoiled by great regular season results in the past 15 years, but even the low points like 2015 to 2017 had some fun or skillful players to watch. What does this 2025 team offer?

I don't want to be a fairweather fan, but as life gets busier they're not making a strong case to stop other things I'm doing to find a stream and watch them live.

Going to Toronto :facepalm:

Nobody here can seriously think investing in Chris Kreider would be wise lol

I'll be fair and not name names, but a couple of folks here have been calling for it for awhile. Can't see it myself. There was a time when having Kreider join the Bs would probably have been good and made for a nice story, but that ship has sailed. It's too late.
