Post-Game Talk: GAME 7 - YUCK!!!! Ducks score 3 in final 4 minutes

[Dennis Bonvie]

Better then brown boqvist I feel. Everything helps.

He'd have to sign cheap to get under the Cap.

 

[Maine Fan]

3-1 and Zacha has perhaps the worst 30 seconds I’ve ever seen, Anaheim scores and then the bullshit continues

I’m putting it entirely on Zacha. Maybe that’s unfair, too bad. He was dreadful on that shift and it totally gifted all momentum to Anaheim.

Zacha has history, played like that with the Devils, that's why the Devils got rid of him.

 

[PaulD]

He won't ever win a Norris I agree, but I'll take him over Nurse and though I think he makes $8M over Werenski.

agree 100 %
ide take him over Karlsson too.

would you take him over Dahlin ?

 

[Mathews28]

3 pts in 7GP isn’t good enough from your top line center.

Aww cmon man, that’s a 35 point pace over 82 games, don’t be so hard on the guy.

Ok. Yeah. That’s awful.

 

[TD Charlie]

Zacha has history, played like that with the Devils, that's why the Devils got rid of him.

Fun. Hopefully that’s the last we see of it. It felt very uncharacteristic of him just based on his otherwise steady play in Boston so far. Could just be his elevated role on the team has exposed him. Time will tell

 

[Mathews28]

songs the gap in salary......so he shoukd be that much better.
As are most number one 80 million dollar Dmen.
I dint compare him to Gryz and Forbert. I compare him to the other 9 million dollar number one D.
Last years play offs he came up way short.
Having said that he is rhe best they have by far.
But the future Nortis trophy conversations that were going on. NAH

Compare him to a #1 we just saw recently….Seth Jones.

Who’s the better of the two at this point ?

 

[Dennis Bonvie]

Zacha has history, played like that with the Devils, that's why the Devils got rid of him.

Zacha had 40 giveaways for the Devils in his last season there. 35 in 82 games for the B's last season.

Compare that to Marchand's 84, or Pasta's 109 from last season. Even Mr. Possession (Coyle) had 42 last season.

 

[JerseyBruin]

Monty has to fix this choke thing fixed pronto or he gets the door. There is some pattern here. I'm having that Florida nightmare again which is still fresh in my memory.

I didn't realize Monty failed to the clear the puck from the D zone about 10 times in the last three minutes.

 

[KillerMillerTime]

agree 100 %
ide take him over Karlsson too.

would you take him over Dahlin ?

Yes, as Dahlin is two years younger and has more upside.

 

[Mione134]

He needs to be better. Alot better. He is a veteran now. No more pouting. He has the talent to be real good. He doesn’t bring the intensity every game. Its a contract year gor him. I thought id see more

Where is the pouting? Truly? I don't see any pouting. Any sulking. I think fans see what they want to see.

His first couple of games he didn't play to his ability, not just last night. He, Zacha, Lindholm and Coyle need to be better.

I think he's been fine despite last game.

When he was paired with Zacha in Anaheim they looked great. Losts of speed. They couldn't cash in on anything but some chemistry was there.

I don't think he's been terrible in the 6 games he's played. Last night was meh. But I can say that for a bunch of guys.

Gotta move on. No excuses not to win the game last night. Clear the puck we win. That simple.

We aren't supposed to talk about Pasta's turnovers on here!

Yea 3 times he could have cleared the puck.He certainly played a big part in getting Ducks back in it but it's early in season and Bruins doing better then I expected.

 

[The National]

Should be lots of good tape to go over in those last 3-5 min, some ugly hockey.

 

[TCB]

Cant really fine room to complain. Their 6-0-1 for the season. Sure would of loved better results from last night but this team will continue to get better and although they've had a light schedule up to this point, their playing above my expectations. Im not expecting a trip to the finals but Ill sure enjoy watching Poitras grow and keep hoping the bruins bring in a true number 1 center and add Lohrei to the mix sooner than later.

Ay least he scores. Debrusk been crap

Yea Lohrei arriving and running that powerplay has me excited.

 

[JerseyBruin]

I think for now , I would would swap Shatty and Mac on the PP. While Charile is the far better overall player I feel Shatty is a better PP QB.

 

[ON3M4N]

I'll preface this by saying Brown isn't a long-term 4th line option, but with that said....I don't think he's been as bad as people are making him out to be. His role is to play a defensively responsible grinder game. In his 4 games he's played, the Bruins at 5v5:

Shots: 16-4
Scoring Chances: 5-5
HD Scoring Chances: 2-1

The team has allowed 1 goal at 5v5 while Brown has been on the ice. He leads the team in hits per 60 and has won 60% of his draws. For his talent level and role, I think he's been fine.

I agree with you .Shatty gets pucks to net alot more,at least by my eyes.I know though once Lohrei arrives our QB could be there for years and that's exciting.

I thought Brown played hard last night.Beecher finishes open net its 2 pts guaranteed.Hey good work digging up these stats to support it.

 

[BMC]

I'm glad I went to bed before the third. I wouldn't have been able to sleep after watching a shit show like that.

 

[hrdpuk]

It was Carlo's fault

 

[lopey]

It was Carlo's fault

I always thought its Tuukas fault lol

 

[KillerMillerTime]

I disagree, #73 is way way better in zone entries than #12.

 

[BMC]

I always thought its Tuukas fault lol

It was but then he retired.

 

[TD Charlie]

If Glen Wesley didnt miss that open net
