Marchand shooting could go a long way for his game.
Physically, he is past his prime. I think that’s a reality. But he needs to adjust his mentality a bit (IMO) because he can’t dipsy doodle everyone like he used to be able to do more consistently. When there are lanes, fire it. Less edgework and passes through tight spaces that are low percentage.
Players need to make an issue of this at the next CBA. Ridiculous.

Wasn't pretty, but 60 is nifty! Apparently, a great team pulls W's out of their asses, in many facets...lol
A win is a win, the Bruins have had a lot of difficulties getting up for the lower ranked teams, Ullmark is nails in shootouts. Hate to harp on the officiating but that's back to back games where the refs put away their whistles on the opposition after the 1st period, c'mon. The PP is starting to come around, love Marchand but he needs to stay off it, it functions better without him, he also needs to sit out for a few games, hasn't scored in ages and is taking a fair amount of punishment. The PK continues to be incredible, Carlo in particular a beast on it.
Rest Marchy for a couple of games starting Thursday.

What a fantastic record that the Bruins have had over this brutal stretch of 4 games a week with back to backs on 3 consecutive weekends.
The team certainly deserves the 3 day break coming up.
The resiliency of the Bruins whole team roster is off the charts.

65-12-5. 135 points. I don’t ask for much
I might be wrong and part of what you are saying might be right especially on adapting his game. IMO, he is simply searching his game a bit, forcing plays. IMO, 63 probably is asking to continue to play while IMO he should rest a bit. But at the end of the day, I beleive Marchand will be there in the PO....
That's looks like a painful letter to pull from one's arse.

He's not playing at full capacity. Making matters worse though, is that he still tries to do too much by himself. It isn't working well.

Yeah, that had to be the worst third period effort by the B's in a long time, but it must be hard to stay motivated when you don't really HAVE to win these games
..and for the love of God they have to give Marchand a good rest before the playoffs. It makes no sense to keep playing him every game when he needs a re-charge...if he gets hurt before the playoffs, I'll be very pissed

The NHL, the stupidest League ever.
I'm just glad Coyle didn't pass it off on his shoot out attempt.

Not sure anyone hates to lose more than Marchand. That will always make me feel good headed into big games.
Hall - Coyle - Bertuzzi is going to be one slick 3rd line .

This is pretty much how I see it to lately. Bruins shorthanded 10 times last 2 games is nuts.Thankfully great PK.
I'm only asking(begging) for 16 wins in the PO's.

Well...nothing happened in those last two periods through the shootout.
It made for great entertainment if nothing else. Kudos to Schenn for playing well despite all those injuries.
I still do not see the fascination with Bertuzzi. He played well because he kept it simple and drove the net for about 45 minutes, but he was also caught deep on 2 of the three goals against. I will have to check Fenway's box score because I think Bert might have been on for all three. He was a plus Minus-0, so I will say two. Like Mr. Bonvie, I am worried about Marchy. He looked quicker today, but still can't do all his tricks without turning over the puck. You know he will not play conservatively. Orlov was alternately great and not so good. Boy, does he jump into the play and freelance a lot. ...Frederic was good, but Monty sat him and sat Steen in the third. Btw,they corrected themselves and did not use that backhand bump breakout much in the last two periods. That was good and Ullmark was very good. On to the next one. ...Sixty is nice...
