4/30/23 would have been better. We need to go with someone like Iron Mike Keenan. Not him, but someone like him. Craig Berube would have been a good choice.

Someone needs to make guys like the lazy Coyle and Carlo more uncomfortable.

Also ~ this should have been a Korpisalo game with Swayman getting back to backs vs Dallas and the Leafs
Agree. I was surprised Sway started this one. At the very least we could have blamed the loss on Korpse and simply moved on from it to face Dallas with Sway. I wonder what Jay Leach would have done?

These last two games were great. They put both me and my 10 month old right to sleep! Never felt so rested.

Time to tank for 2-3 years. Nothing good will come out of this current team.

Now Sweeney, Neely and "Monty" are not the people you want around leading a rebuild.
If/when they rebuild (btw, they never will, with this owner), the current FO is the people I would have do it.
I've said it before, be ready for a decade of
"good enough to barely make the playoffs, not good enough to win a round"

Bruins owe me a couple hours of sleep for that one

They might not be good enough to barely squeak in as of today

The team isn't on the same page and it's clear. They don't know what style they want to play when they hit the ice and are careless with the puck with all of the behind the back prayer passes. Swayman's numbers look awful but he's been holding back the barrage from all the lazy turnovers his team is giving up in front of him.
To be honest, I think they botched training camp and the exhibition games, gave the maybes, wannabes and kids too many games, didn’t play the regulars together enough. Not the whole problem obviously, but it’s a domino effect into these first seven games, other than the 4th line, there’s no chemistry or identity. Missed passes, D men knocking each other over(happened at least twice last night:help:), some horrible line changes. There’s time to right the ship, but the clock is ticking and Monty certainly hears it.

Everyone said that Jay Leach was this defenseman whisperer, all I see this year is a D playing miles below their capabilities, early returns, but so far not looking like a good hire.

Thank god they went out and filled all those holes on the bottom of the roster instead of spending that money to fix the holes at the top of it. Otherwise we’d be dealing with a team that could score goals and who needs that in their lives?

Montgomery clearly failed to manage the preseason.

He also has clearly failed to build a system for success for this type of roster. Clone Florida's simple yet effective system.

Separating coach from person and his time is ending soon at this rate. Soft, dull hockey is not what Bruins fans want.

Stunned Jones did not try to offset the penalties and his poor start with even a token fight. Mccarron and Lauzon are always willing....

PP ineffective. PK not the typical elite. Uninspiring hockey, little emotion, no attempt at physicality.

I expected lack of offense with this roster but that was supposed to be overcome with size, grit, and toughness....

This early start is also confirming the fact that Frederic is merely complementary and invisible far more than not. He should be paid as such or traded.
