Not to mention in the Bruins case, they usually miss the player with the pass or the player accepting the pass is too slow and lacks talent and IQ to enter the zone with possession!
I don't think that's the issue, as it's usually going to Pasta or Lohrei. They're doing it way too deep in their own end which defeats the purpose of pushing the defenders back to their own blueline. It's best executed when it's a drop pass from the center faceoff as the defenders have given ground to a player already generating some speed at his own blueline. But they need to be aware because the way teams defend against the drop pass it just to clog the neutral zone with defenders fronting their own blueline. I want to see the Bruins try a fake drop pass / then dump in over the defense with the wingers coming in with speed on the forecheck.

To their credit, the Bruins PP has a lot more moving parts to it as opposed to the start of the year where everyone seemed way too stagnent. They're moving, switching sides, trying to catch defenders on cross over plays, etc etc.
 
I am fully aware of the Bruins picks and what they did at the trade deadline and neither are impressive. I have zero faith in Sweeney and his ability to draft players. Last years first round draft pick had a total of ZERO goals in the NCAA this season and 3 total points in 34 games.
I agree they can’t draft for shit, but they have a good amount of picks/prospects and there is going to be pain now (watching them) for awhile with all these young players/future picks

This is what people wanted and now here it is..
 
Well if Carlo and his 4.1 mil got traded then this is not that far fetched. Zadorov at least is noticeable during the game, can hit and is willing to stand up for his teammates. +14 on this team is quite an accomplishment. Not saying it will happen but their is a chance.

I personally would not mind holding on to Zadorov.

Zadorov, is not the problem with this team. You might not like the contract, that's fine, the penalties can be tough to handle, but I think his intent and willingness to be a team guy first is very important, especially with this team.
 
Getting McAvoy and HL back will help the team.
Our only hope is to get a top 5 pick at the draft and pick the right player that can step in next year and play.
Minten may turn out to be a decent #3 center?
Take the cap space and invest in skilled fast players....hopefully someone wants to come here.
If you can find a trade partner, get rid of EL and Zadorov.
No one is trading for E. Lindholm unless you retain 3M and even then there aren't many interested.

That's what I meant, why trade him.

We agree.

Callahan fined maximum for cross-checking in Bruins game | NHL.com

NEW YORK – Boston Bruins defenseman Michael Callahan has been fined $2,018.23, the maximum allowable under the Collective Bargaining Agreement, for cross-checking Anaheim Ducks forward Jansen Harkins during NHL Game No. 1142 in Anaheim on Wednesday, March 26, the National Hockey League’s Department of Player Safety announced today.

The incident occurred at 13:56 of the second period. Callahan was assessed a double-minor penalty for high-sticking.

The money goes to the Players’ Emergency Assistance Fund.
 
my observations live from the rink

joe sacco is a clueless f***ing dummy

chris kelly coaching the power play is laughable

the roster f***ing blows besides pasta and he looks completely uninterested because of the morons he’s on the ice with

this defensive core is absolute garbage

f*** don sweeney

f*** cam neely

the only positive is the draft pick upside if we get a miracle in the lottery
Won’t need a miracle in the lottery, if they keep this up the rest of the season
