I think it will be statu quo, they will be patient till the TDL and maybe trade some UFAs guy like Brazzeau and or Koepke if not on WC spot. They will extend Marchy for cheap 1 year, sign Geekie Freddy, Beecher, Lohrei and Patrick Brown...yes Patrick Brown , try to sign some UFAs this summer for help on top 6 and hope for the best in 25-26. If pathetic again they will retool by trading guys ending contract like Marchy,Coyle, Peeke maybe Carlo...forget all moves trades for an exiting retool!!!!

IF Sway is down for a while and the top 2 defenders being out the tank is gonna be forced upon us cause we’re playing terrible.

You might be right, but I prefer that than a living in the past and wearing rose colored glasses. Good hockey, player, hard worker, been known to do some less than smart things on the ice, but it is time to face reality his time has passed and get something for him, before you end up empty handed.

I don't wear rose colored glass and don't live in the past. Get over yourself

I didn't think it ever snowed in Texas, at least not in the south. I've learnt something!

With guitar I've always thought that because left-handed guitars are so rare, the vast majority of people who learn are simply given a righty whether it naturally suits them or not, and the lefties just adjust because it's usually seen to be do that or give up (or do a Hendrix!). I suspect there would be more left-handed players if there was a greatly availability of left-handed guitars. Instead they're rare and usually more expensive.

Your impressive rope jumping reminded me of the importance of fitness and of how the Bruins didn't seem to have it at the start of the season. Underdone back then and I still don't think they've ever really caught up. So many slow starts, down patches and games were they get heavily outshot or simply fade out as it goes along. No team can go at 100% all the time, and their sheer lack of foot speed hurts them too, but this current group has never felt like being on the cutting edge in terms of their fitness and endurance. Amongst all the things that need to be reviewed about the team and where it's going wrong, looking at the current conditioning staff and program should be on the list. Really feels like it could be better.

Thanks!

It rarely snows in south Texas, which is why this week has been so fun for us. We aren't equipped for it - no snow tires, etc. So the mayor wisely shut everything down for two days.

I'm left hand dominant and play guitar right. I find it interesting that the the balance between lefties and righties isn't nearly as equal with guitar as it is with hockey sticks. Then again, in addition to guitars, everything else is geared toward righties - chord charts, tablature, etc. I've talked to other lefties when taking up guitar, and I steer them toward playing righty. Especially beginning, chords are harder for most than strumming, so a lefty has his dominant hand doing the harder work.

And great points on the B's conditioning. You could see the Devil's knowing with the B's hemmed in their own end in the long change second period, it was like a power play.

We don't get to see the whole ice on TV, so I'm reluctant to blame just the defensemen. Like last night - two young defensemen (Lohrei, Wotherspoon) are below the goal line trying to win a puck battle. They are out-manned and out-muscled; but where were the other three guys? Conditioning could play a part.

I don't read too much into behind the scenes clips, but there was a recent one following Mason Lohrei (who I like) on game day. He stops at Dunkin' Donuts and buys donuts. I get it, Dunkin' is a sponsor, and it's subliminal advertising. But I've also heard what a fitness freak Nate MacKinnon is; is he stopping for donuts on his way to games?

I'm sure he burns the calories off quickly, but still. I've actually had brief conversations with Kevin Neeld, the Bruins' performance coach, on YouTube. I was kinda star-struck. ;)

If only were that easy.

Even scoring first has not necessarily been a recipe for success as of late.

I know many have placed blame at the feet of the coach, but I truly believe it is the roster.

By the time they get Lindholm and McAvoy back, it may be too late. And the forward group is just simply not good enough.

It ain't over till its over. Good old yogi berra . Never know we win the next 2 and whammo in third place in Atlantic.
 
No 73, no 27, no 47, no 11, no 1, no offensive, no PP, no PK and some here think we can win tonight??? Sens will have fun taking penalities by taking a lot of libertys and kick our ass really really baddely....
 
@Kate08 do you think the mods would let me have a NeelyDan’s gummy thoughts sub forum

Of which I am having several right now

Example: fighting in the 70s was none of this square off, defence, strategy - it was all gas, no brakes

All gas, no brakes

and like is there a philosophical connection to todays world being all brakes no gas and that’s what todays fight reflect omg
