Chara still looks great with that shot...just a month of rejuvenation needed. Name your science fiction movie technique and I'll make it happen!

He needs a steady supply of stem cells to keep him going in the postseason.

He needs more than regular stem cells. I'm suggesting we splice...

if the league talks to Marchy about a suspension he should just say "Brandon Prust" and hang up.

It was a ****ing idiotic move, but the precendent has been set multiple times.

What a win considering the situation they faced going into the second period. Everyone played hard and got the job done.

when they showed the initial highlight I was waiting to see what provoked his frustrations but then saw nothing....wasn`t a great look

I thought the Bolts player cross checked him pretty good, and Brad just twisted his torso to whack the guy with his stick, but ended up hitting him in the junk. I don't believe Brad was looking at the guy when he hit him.

I'll have to rewatch to see if I'm wearing homer glasses.



Go to 40 sec mark. After review, the cross check wasn't too bad. Don't think it was intentional to get him in the junk, but you never know.

Just watched the Marchand thing on youtube. Yes the hit with the stick looked deliberate but I think it was just bad luck he caught him in the nads. You can see a dozen 'taps' like that in a game that go unpunished because the player receiving doesn't get hurt (or doesn't go down like he has been shot). It is a fact in hockey that the level of punishment for an infraction often depends on its effect rather than its intent.

That definitely was a very convincing win vs the Bolts, who have been
playing very well of late.

Hopefully that is the type of play the B's bring to the playoffs.
I can be happy with that type of effort.

actually felt this was, by far, their most thorough 200 ft game over this winning streak

If this was mentioned earlier, I apologize, but man oh man did Moore look real good on Bergy's wing. Wouldn't mind seeing a game or two with 28 - 37 - 63

We've seen those numbers together before and it worked pretty well ;)

I was a little nervous early on as Tampa seemed to be one of the faster teams the Bruins have played lately and with Brad doing what he did , things didn't look good .Great penalty kill and then the Bruins took over .

Boys took care of business .... and punched the ticket.

I was worried about the 5 min PP with Marchand gone but the PK was amazing! The Bolts' PP is very good, so that set the tone and the Bruins responded very well.

It was a fun game to watch other than the spearing of course. I saw someone tweet that Tampa probably doesn't want the Bruins playing without Marchand against Ottawa tomorrow. :laugh:

Dom Moore too. He is so good for the $$ . I see him teaching the kids on the ice. He is a smart player..so good on the PK

I absolutely hope they can find a way to bring back Dominic Moore on a reasonable contract.

Oh man, this is why i stay up late so many nights.

Nothing like seeing happy Zdeno and Krug standing next to him. What a great bunch.

Big Z seems so much more into it this season. He was so happy and excited to score that goal. He looked like a kid with that huge smile. It was a blast to see.
