Habs aren’t what they used to be, but always feels good beating them. Definitely wouldn’t use this game as a barometer. Still need to build on a win and get some streak going

 

[Alan Ryan]

It was amazing to see all the celebration and history of 100 years of Bruins hockey.

What’s a bit daunting is that the Bruins are only 16 years older than me.

 

[GordonHowe]

Al Iafrate?

No. I am rewatching.

Bloody *Jason Allison.*

Squeaky voice Jason Allison, who wanted out when his contract was up, refusing negotiations and all comment to the media, to the entitled irritation of KPD.

Why would Sqeaky come back to Boston? My understanding is that he hated it here, at least in terms of management and getting paid properly.

Jason Allison.

Brought to Boston along with Anson Carter in exchange for rightly disgruntled Adam Oates, who shot himself out of town (admittedly a characteristic) with a very public eff off to Sinden's comically inept heir, Mike O'Connell.

(Also See: "The Thornton "trade," as it were.)

Marking cash cow time with static, miserly "management" en general.

Allison looks like a a paunchy, avuncular Paul Giamatti in "The Holdovers."

Perhaps he teaches high School science.

Oy!

Geez, Phil has nice teeth (if they're still mostly his)

 

[BadBruins]

Good win. I guess. Would have preferred they stepped on the throat instead of letting them get back into it.....

McAvoy is so much better when he thinks the game less. He has everything. Biggest hurdle is the mental side.

Marchand didn't have any game whatsoever. Some nights he's your best player, other nights your worst.

I still say the combination of Marchand, McAvoy, Pastrnak on the PP, in the current formation at least, has to end. Especially when Marchand and Pastrnak are your primary options. Its honestly a mess. They both turn the puck over frequently and put their heads down and dog it getting back when they do.

I've said before Kastelic deserves some looks in the top-6/9. Good to see him make an impact. Gets to the front of the net. Skates well. Underrated hands. Doesn't back down from anyone. Wish you could teach that to guys like Beecher and McLaughlin. Probably too late in their careers to be anything other than a pretty college boy.

 

[Oates2Neely]

Poor Ullmark - great guy and glad he got contract

He’s had a brutal start this season for Ottawa

Irrelevant what he is now. He was at top of his game when traded to Ottawa

 

[Babajingo]

They beat the team with the second poorest record in the league on a night where it would've been severely embarrassing if they lost. Good news is the team with the worst record is on Wed.

I think that Kastelic was one of the intended guys for the new PP1 formation?
But, by the time they got a PP (after the scrum he was in with Wifi) he was
serving his 10 minute misconduct for looking meanly at a Hab. Exagerating I know but yeah, I don't think he was available for that PP.

 

[bruins19]

Korpi was a good add too.

And a first round pick. Kastelic was part of a package. He has played well.

 

[Coach Parker]

Was really happy for all the fans in attendance who had a thoroughly entertaining game. Enjoy!

 

[Olden McGroin]

 

[GordonHowe]

Are you sure? How was he looking?


Derek is like 80. Chara was spotted by bruinsfan1970.

Why wasn't Chara out there?

And for that matter, no Peter Chiarelli and no Claude Julien.

Class act.

Usually the Boston Bruins organization does these things very well. Things usually move right along.

I guess Peter and Claude are coming non-persons.

Stalin used to do that.

Just airbrush them out of the history.

Or am I wrong? Please correct me if I am.

 

[NDiesel]

Unfortunately missed this one but that 3rd line is very intriguing. Glad they rewarded Kastelic by moving him up with those guys and on the flip side hopefully his hard work can get those other two going

 

[xStanleyCupsFor]

Best game of the year for Charlie McAvoy

Best game of the year for Charlie Coyle

Kastelic would fit right in on any of the previous Bruins eras. Keep that line together!

I LOVE that beautiful golden B on the crest. Give me those exact unis minus the gold sleeves

For a lengthy ceremony, that was very well done, classy, and emotional

You're wrong.

One is out of the country, and the other two have day jobs with St Louis.

 

[bobbyorr04]

They played Rangers last game lost 4-3 and outplayed them for stretches and Rangers are reigning Prez Trophy and picked by many to win Cup

Bruins I read beat a weak Utah team so marginalized win yet Utah beat Vegas 6-0 last night in Vegas

All wins against nhl teams are pretty good to me

Exactly ...and they're all two points each

I really don't think there's too many easy games in the NHL anymore

If you're not playing up to snuff, there's a good chance you're gonna lose, no matter who you're playing against

Yup. Loved the jerseys. Hated the sleeves

Shesterkin has a GA around 3.00
The Rangers are playing crap and he's finding out quickly it's a team sport.
The team plays crappy, it'll drag you down.

Wonder if he still wants his 12 million?

He might. I watched them play Philly and he was the only reason the Rags were even in the game. Without him Philly might have had 7 or 8.

 

[lopey]

Why the need to be defensive and give a snarky answer? A lot of 80+ year olds made it. Seems odd that he couldn’t spare a few minutes. Maybe he’ll be at the 200th.

Because you gave a snarky question saying itl seem inexcusable. Don’t try and backtrack your usually trolling self.

 

[PB37]

Kastelic on pace to score 10G 13A 23P. He’s a fine 4th liner but suggesting trading a recent Vezina winner for a 23 point 4th liner puts Sweeney in the running for GM of the year is slightly absurd

Well to be fair, if we're going to use Kastelic's current pace as a judgement of what he'll bring the rest of the way out, we have to do the same for Ullmark - so it would be a quality 4th liner, a quality backup goaltender, and a 1st round pick for a guy with the 37th save percentage and worst GAA in the league.
