or many other teams

We have come along way from the O’connel years

We have come along way from the O’connel years

We have been lucky with coaches, net minders (thanks goalie coach Bob) and players who bought into the plan. Chemistry has been good for a number of years.

Of course, having the duo of Bergy/ Brad didn't hurt.

I don't know what to expect this season but I am having fun ...so far.

 

[ON3M4N]

This place is going to be insufferable tonight. Way too much focus on fighting and revenge going on already.

This is the GDT. I'm not in the mood to be creative.

Ya I'm past last season. So many players from that series aren't even on their respective teams anymore. This is just another game of the 82 game season for me

I can't think of any runs on poitras over the last couple games. Admittedly I haven't watched every minute of every game but I would assume I would have seen it online somewhere.

All I can recall is Gudas laying a good hit on Poitras but nothing out of the ordinary. Not like he was specifically targeted for that one.

hes been hit from behind a few times. Its around here somewhere.

Ducks:

Less than a minute in, Jackson LaCombe cross-checked Matt Poitras from behind, the rookie’s face smashing into the glass. The Bruins did not take kindly to the assault on their 19-year-old center, and they first went after LaCombe and then they went after the net.
“I think ever since I’ve been here with the Bruins we stick together like a pack of wolves,” said Montgomery. “So, you come after one of us, you’re going to have to deal with all of us, and I love the way we responded that way and I love the energy we had, and even after we went ahead, 3-1, we had numerous opportunities to extend the lead.”


Red Wings:

The Bruins struck first on the power play after Michael Rasmussen drilled Matt Poitras into the boards. Rasmussen’s nose was still a bit out of joint after he was thumped by Kevin Shattenkirk.

Rasmussen ran him during the Red Wings game.

I thought he was teamed up on a couple of games ago, but he handles it well. He isn't shy about digging in the corners.

If the other team choses to go after him, I am quite sure the Bruins will answer. If not...I am bringing the bat.

 

[Gonzothe7thDman]

Rasmussen ran him during the Red Wings game.

I just saw that one on Twitter. Bad hit but not sure if that counts as someone targeting Poitras specifically.

Bruins just committed that same type of hit recently and I don't think it was specifically targeted.

There's a difference between just taking a couple hits and being specifically targeted. If Poitras starts taking abuse that only gets directed at him and no other Bruin I would start buying into the line of thinking that he's being singled out.

While nothing official on Heinen, he did lead the stretch which may mean something is coming.

 

[quietbruinfan]

I don't like Montgomery because he still thinks they can out pace and outscore their problems, but, I have to admit, he is doing things that are very logical.

 

[Gordoff]

Deslauriers is going on 33.

He can still play. Looch is in his mid thirties too.

It's all part of being a rookie.

At least, it used to be.

I know...Like "Welcome to the NHL kid" ..slam.

He seems to do OK with it and like I said if the other team gets too rough I expect the Bruins to put a stop to it.

Monty wanting to protect the young kid is the right thing. I agree none of those hits are targeting but the next one might

Apparently he is going to run Frederic on that line to help discourage that kind of thing. We'll see how that goes. Even more I hope those guys can find some offensive chemistry.

I agree but when he plays against the Bs I want to slap him.

I want Looch to slap him lol

I don't expect much because no one hates anyone anymore. I fully expect a la-de-dah game that's not remotely physical.

One time you'd have this one circled on your calendar. Not anymore.

the bruins fanbase had the game against vancouver "circled" after the 2011 cup win, that game was a shit show and the bruins lost.


La-de-dah, la-de-doo, all I care about is that we get TWO!

Agreed 200% - They both play hard every single night.

 

[Thomas 11]

That is a pretty good looking 4th line.
