As far as Dobby the difference I see in him over what Rask was giving them lately is the aggressiveness, coming out and challenging and cutting the angles. He seemed to make Tavares shoot wide more than any games I can remember.

In fairness to Rask, the defense was far better tonight clearing rebounds then I can remember lately.

Ala the old Merlot line, the 4th line stepped up big and carried the scoring tonight.

The 4th line has played really well since Acciari was called back up.

Folks, if you haven't heard, Andersen went down with an upper body injury in the Leafs game and the floodgates opened. 5-2 Buffalo now.

Next game, they're playing the team that beat Chicago 6-0 tonight. Hope those two trends continue :laugh:

Way better and Rask didn't get beat once by a shot against toronto or Ottawa yet we want to pretend he stunk.

Chara in front and behind his goal line was absolutely dominant tonight. Was great to see.

Agreed. Tonight I really wanted to sit down and examine the players play as a coach and look for positives in the Bruins play.

Chara
C.Miller
Nash
Khudobin
Marchand

...all had great games when you sit down and watch their individual play and shifts.

My favorite player, Riley Nash, scores both goals in a 2-1 game, is the number one star, and you say the 4th line stepped up? They've played well since Acciari was added? Come on, biggest game of the year and RILEY NASH was the star!

I missed the whole game, are those shot counts accurate? Was that the most boring putrid game of hockey of the modern era? I can't even believe I'm reading the box score right.

lol wait, 9 power plays? THAT shot count and 9 powerplays?

I don't even...

That's a good observation on Khudobin. Just by seeing Khudobin play, it also seems like Rask is quicker to set in the butterfly position than Khudobin is which I think isn't helping Rask all that much as well.
