I miss Samsonov, was my favourite as a kid, loved seeing small guys in that era as an undersized kid at the time.
That's another criminal offence by Eagleson!

The tale of the 2 two Charlies:
Coyle now sits at 7-1-8 and -8, odd numbers for a center (goals to assists). His improved +/- puts him ahead of Freddy and Lohrei who both have -9 now.
McAvoy, with a 2 goal, +4 game jets up to +3, tied for third best on team. His two goals were reminiscent of prime Paul Coffey. Using his great skating to score on a wraparound and a shorthanded breakaway. Don't see a defenseman out at the blue line when killing a penalty very often. but sometimes the bounce of the puck is more important than proper positioning.

Nice to see you at the game @DKH
There was a woman next to me who had crushes on some of the players. I believe Sway was her #1. She kept trying to get the equipment guys attention as she wanted a sweaty towel from Swayman. They threw her one and she cried because she was so happy. It was odd.

Listening to the rerun part when Ray Bourque was talking about McAvoy saying he defers to much.I also like hearing Ray talking about straddling the line looking for lane to shoot .He was awesome at that and you just don't see them do it anymore.

Lohrei is constantly moving east/west, but nobody did it like 77. I can see him in my mind, gliding backwards with his stick up over his head, puck somehow staying perfectly placed and moving with him.

While I couldn't stand the guy, PK Subban was really good at this in his prime with Montreal, too. He used to give me nightmares back there.

Was curious to see how the Bruins compare since Sacco took over. Here is where the rank among other teams over the last 6 games
FF% - 4th
SF - 11th
SA - 2nd
GF - 20th
GA - 2nd
xGF - 14th
xGA - 1st
SCF - 14th
SCA - 2nd
HDCF - 9th
HDCA - 1st
The defense has tightened up and their getting the dirty rea more it seems.

Lohrei's brain isn't connected to his feet, Kids a turnover machine even on the pp.
The risk is not worth the seldom reward he brings. But yes Ray was one of the greatest, his shot was powerful

Kinda worried about dean leternaeu hes a ghost at Boston college right now. Still raw and young though .
What a cannon he had.
I will say this about Lohrei, knowing full well he is a work in progress, is that he seems to have much better instincts on the PP than McAvoy. If he can ever put it together, we will have a good QB there. No Bourque, but then again, who is?

If I we're a defenceman, I would most certainly want that in my arsenal. Good way to get it past legs trying to defend.

Don't quote me but I'm almost certain that the kids use "wicked pissah" these days.......
After watching I wish the sweaters had 2 things different.
First, the arms be black instead of gold from arm band stripe down.
Second,the nameplates should have been outlined in white like the numbers.

The extra gold on the arms is bordering on criminal just due to how perfect the rest of the jersey is. If it was a gold/white/gold stripe on the elbow with the rest of the sleeve being black, they'd really have a winner here.
Still, a really sharp jersey. Brought me back 30ish years.

I was from the North Shore and a couple of my roommates in college were from the mean streets of Hingham and they were using ‘pissa’ in the early 80’s ~ first time I remember hearing this so often
Sad because they could be 6-0 very easily if they could shoot

He was always supposed to be a project Don, I wouldn't sound the alarm on him yet. Let's see how he does the next 2 years in college.
But yeah, PK was a phenomenal player in his prime. Could actually do it all. Score, throw huge hits, great defender
I still remember him coming out of the box...

Yes because we used to give our buds shit over it all the time and we never said it in high school
