Post-Game Talk: Game 66: Caps win in OT 2-1 - We're on to Florida

[Fenway]

The thread headline should be "****ed Over By The Refs"

Our PP let us down. 0 for 5 including a 2-man for a full 2 minutes. We had two PPs in a row with zero shots.

PP has been atrocious: from the best to the worst.

 

[LSCII]

Right on cue.

Nah. Just calling it the way it happened. They carried the play in the second, and were either gassed or tried to pack it in after that effort. Sucks because they should have won this going away.

 

[reillysmith38]

Could have been better. Lots of ticky tacky calls all night. Only ref issue I thought, was the off-sides goal.

Still got a point out of it. Everyone played reasonably well. We kept the best team in the league to 1 goal against in regulation.

On to the next one.

 

[DitClapper]

Bergeron should have tucked one of the three golden opportunities he had on the 5on3. Not only on the refs, every team has to play through that.

Hasn't been clicking in a while, especially the first unit. Need to adjust it ASAP.

Great effort by most of the B's tonight, but when is Clode going to learn not to put Chara on the ice in OT.

I love Chara, but he is just too friggin slow for 3 vs. 3, and it is definitely a big disadvantage for the Bruins.

I'd rather see 3 forwards out there in OT instead of Chara.

Even though I'm displeased with him tonight, what did he do wrong in OT? Is he supposed to shadow a player all the way to the blue line?

 

[Bearclaw]

Aside from the last goal, I agree that Tuukka had been great.

 

[BsEuphoria]

That would've been an insanely uplifting win for the boys to right before the Disney trip

 

[toasterjam]

happy with the effort, bruins have stepped up big back to back games now.

gearing up for playoffs.

Acciari needs to stay.

Will be interesting to see who comes in for K.Miller...Trotman, Morrow..maybe even C.Miller? I think I'm ok with any one of those 3 handling limited #6 D minutes...this means Mcquaid now has to step up big

And there is a reason why no NHL coach has a 6'9 "speedburner"on the ice 3 on 3,

Liles and Krug just had shifts. The other 2 options are Seidenberg and McQuaid.

 

[Jack218D]

412 on line right now.

Now watch folks. Place your bets on who might show up. Compare to win nights. I find it humorous.

Fair point. That said. The headline of this post should read "Bs robbed of 2 to 1 win"
Rather than "Caps win 2 to 1".

It's like customer service surveys. People only fill them out and respond when they are POd.

I hope it is Morrow .

C.Miller in 7 games with Providence 3 goals 3 Assists. C.Miller should get the shot.

Frustrating game, but looking at the bigger picture......this team looks to be getting dangerous again.

They keep this up, no team is going to want the Bruins in the playoffs.

Wow. Thats ironic.

I gave up being nice for Lent.

 

[DitClapper]

Acciari bloodying the pussbag that is Brooks Orpik was the highlight of my night.

 

[2ka RasK*]

3 pts from Chicago and Washington at home.

I'll take it!


Team loss. Thats how it goes.

 

[njbruin*]

Liles and Krug just had shifts. The other 2 options are Seidenberg and McQuaid.

Why not 3 forwards , we already had the 1 pt. Not like we care about giving the Caps the extra point.

 

[Bruinaura]

Even with the reffing, this game was winnable. If our power play connected it probably would have made the difference.

I want Washington out in the first round, but if they make it to the finals I'd even be happy if Chicago beat them, and I despise Chicago.

Nothing went right.

They played hard. Thats all we can ask.

 

[bob27]

If Arizona wins tonight, there's a chance for the Bruins to overtake them in their next matchup.

 

[BsEuphoria]

Liles and Krug just had shifts. The other 2 options are Seidenberg and McQuaid.

Or Bergy. There is no true need to have a defensemen on the ice in a 3v3 go for the win situation.

 

[njbruin*]

C.Miller in 7 games with Providence 3 goals 3 Assists. C.Miller should get the shot.

Which probably means Trotman .
