Pre-Game Talk: GAME 7 10/22 8:52 PM - THE BEAR sings at the Grand Ole Opry - NESN, ESPN+, 102.5 WKLB-FM

[Nick Lang]

I've been a big Zadorov guy since day 1 - I might be a bit biased but I've always liked his game. You gotta take the bad with the good. He might be a bit costly, but I think his true value will show in the playoffs. I know last year he looked great with you guys in the post season, at least in the games I watched.

From what I've gathered is he's been embracing being a Bruin.

Yeah he's really quite gifted offensively and has some real skills that get displayed once in as while. His consistency and defensive awareness are the concerns. He was very successful in the playoffs but we were hemmed in our own zone for long periods as well.

Good luck with the Preds! Keep them searching for a win.

So we're getting his first NHL goal too! Damn.

Seems everyone scores their first against the Bruins.

 

[Sheppy]

I think tonight will be a big game for Marchand. I think he nets 2.

Ultimately, I want to see the top 6 contribute in some way.

Is it too late to fly the siblings in for this game?

They don't usually play in Nashville this early in the season

Things I've noticed the last 6 games (not live ).
The better teams we're facing seem choreographed in certain aspects of their game as opposed to the B's i.e. PP , cycling , getting out of their D zone .

Is that coaching or players not responding to coaching ?

Or the team played all the kids in preseason and the vets did not do enough together to prepare. So October is where they are working out the bugs.

Good question? I personally have no idea what system we play.
Take E Lindholm as an example, in Calgary he played the bumper on the PP. He sort of plays it here, but we keep trying to force it to Pasta, who is usually so far off to the side, by the time the pass gets there it’s too late.
Put lindholm in Bergerons spot and pasta in the exact spot Stamkos plays in and we would be more dangerous. But we just keep doing the same thing over and over.
End rant!

Agree

 

[BB79]

I feel like Nashville is similar to Florida, in that they're always one of those teams that give us fits no matter how good or bad they are..so I'm not counting on a W to be easy

Lack of chemistry, imo.

 

[hrdpuk]

lack of chemistry is part of the problem for sure but these guys are pros .

4th line has chemistry

 

[smithformeragent]

oh good

another late night game i won't watch

Yep,

Content to watch the next day on DVR whether I know the outcome or not.

 

[BTO]

I can only re-watch when they win. Then it’s all fun with none of the stress. ‘Course the stress is 90% of the fun. The other half is winning.

If I couldn’t watch, live, used to go out of my way to avoid spoilers at all costs.

With 82 regular season games, I do my best to watch them all. But I’m not a slave to it like I used to be in the past.

When they go out west, I will throw it on the next morning or the next day. Sometimes I watch with undivided attention. More often than not these days, it’s on in the background.

Saturday night was very weird.
I was wide awake at midnight, got up and watched the first period. Fell asleep, got up at 5 o’clock the next morning and watched the rest.

I almost want to drive the 4 hours and impulse go to the game.

I’d just like our version of Marchand to play like our version of Marchand
