Post-Game Talk: GAME 45 - THE BEAR swims in the Everglades - BRUINS 4 Sunrise 3 F/OT

Did McLaughlin play today??

Yeah, sort of. Got less than 5 mins TOI.

Was one of those games where both teams basically shortened the bench and mostly played only their first 3 lines. Big workload for the top guys - Pasta, Barkov and Reinhart 25 mins, Zacha, Lindholm and Tkachuk 23. No messing about when these two rivals meet, they come to play and play to win.
 
• B’s completely dominated, but the goalie plays out of his mind

• Signs of life from the power play

• Truculence

• Staying afloat in the standings
 
This win reminded me of last year's playoffs. It is the 1st first game that Swayman made the biggest impact. That being said the Rodrigues goal(1st one) can't happen. I don't understand how modern goalies don't poke check, fight the shot from that close. He passively thought he had all holes covered. Why take the chance, especially, he seems to have an aggressive mindset out there as far as clearing screeners.
Definitely great for the B's in many ways, confidence that they can still be resilient. Too many games this year that they seemed to get down on themselves and quit.
Sway is on an 8-game run, where his Save % is where you would expect it to be.
 

The Boston Bruins secured a 4-3 overtime victory against the Florida Panthers on Saturday to snap their six-game losing streak. After the victory, Jeremy Swayman’s girlfriend Alessandra’s mother Monique joined him in the locker room interview, where she heaped praise on the Bruins goaltender.

Monique expressed how overjoyed she was and how well everything came together for the team on the night. She also mentioned that she was proud of Swayman and praised his game.

“Unbelievable. It was a great game,” Monique said. “Everything just fell in place at the right time, and he played a great game. So excited for him.”
 
Anything more poetic than Reinhart getting a lucky bounce to send the game into OT with 1.8 seconds left ONLY to then be the recipient of an unlucky bounce and lose the game with 1.2 seconds left?
 
Yesterday was a goalie steal. We’ve had a bunch of those last year. This was the first one of the season where our goalie gets 95% of the credit. Last year it seems like half the games were goalie steals. This year not so much, but it does feel like Sway turned a corner yesterday.
