Fox is upset that some players won't be back?
Either he's a f***ing sadist or he also got a grade 11 concussion.
You want Trouba back?!

Bruins fan here relax guys cats destroyed our franchise too. We know what you guys are going through. They are a machine.

I'm not so sure about Lafreniere yet. I think so much of what he did this season was a by product of an all-world Panarin. That's not a bad thing because you need skill to do what he did regardless of linemates but does anyone really see him as an 80 point player without Panarin?
Kakko is just a sad thing.

He scored at literally twice the ppg rate the last two playoffs.

wow, vally saying on the post game they need to make big moves this offseason and how you cant teach guys attitude of getting into the slot and dirty areas. And how basically its not the coach, its the core. Wow.

Substitute the Rangers in for the Knicks in this clip, and it’s pretty accurate.

Did you watch the playoffs? Laff was creating literally by himself. Laff is the best player on this team

he's probably referring to Lindgren

Yes? Panarin wasn’t doing much against the Panthers and Laf was probably our best offensive forward. His 5v5 production is extremely high end

My take is that if they aren’t gonna blow it up, they simply MUST replace and upgrade Trouba, that’s mission 1 above all else. And then next they need to go big game hunting and try to pull off a swap for a big name 1C with Mika going in that deal or a separate deal and then exchanging parts.
And if not for a superstar then for a young up and coming player who profiles as tough to play against in the playoffs but still has skill (think Lundell), and then use the cap savings to improve elsewhere. Trocheck becomes 1C.

This is a bad hockey team.
He's small and not the best skater. That's a bad combination.

Valliquette called out Mika and Bread. 60% of the goals in the NHL this season were scored from the slot.
Said Panarin had 1 shot from the slot and Mika had 3 over the last 5 games.
Boyle said he’s excited for Cuylle and Rempe moving forward.

Longtime lurker, I never post
I find it kinda remarkable that this fan base spent the entire year saying the team wasn’t good enough, bringing up their bad 5 on 5 play and that we did not play like a top contender ALL SEASON LONG
And are now somehow shocked and upset that the odds makers had us a step below the top teams, and that we lost to a team that the eye test and stats all said was a better team. Effort and heart doesn’t always equate success.
Personally I saw a team that was over matched and put it all on the line and still came up short. It sucks, I’m broken, I wanted them to pull it out because I think if the did, Edmonton and Dallas would be an easier series than this. I want changes to be made, specifically on defense and ideally getting a top line right winger. I do not think this core needs to be broken up. They had the most come from behind wins ever in an NHL season, that doesn’t happen with a core that “lacks heart:
They just need to get a bit better

Vinny and Shesty for sure the best. Laffy a great coming of age playoff for him . Goodrow played his roll very well . He needs some serious kudos. 2 shorties and 4 even strength goals and 2 even strength helpers.

After this series?
Yes!
Between Panarin and Laf, Laf had better puck control, zone entries, and was not shy of going to the crease.
Laf-Tro-Kreider
And Laf becomes a staple on the PP.

McCready guitar god
and we'll hope that Bread & Zbad can be the players they were in the reg season.
Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, won't get fooled again.
We are a DUMB DUMB DUMB franchise & thats why we have 4 cups in our entire history.
Does Jake Grundle really move the needle on this roster? More importantly, is he a fit with Mika and Kreider?

also what the f*** is the coaching staff doing? how many f***ING times did Trouba miss a big hit and give up a scoring chance this year? couldn't someone tell him not to do that shit? of course he does it tonight in the biggest game of the season and we give up a backbreaking goal. just horrible. he should've been benched. nobody should get their hopes up about us getting rid of him.
