Let's blame the backup !
When is the last time Lucic or Iginla or Krejci actually scored a goal ?

Lucic needs to step it up and is backed up by your post
His shot is deadly. He needs yo use it more
You've posted this in at least 3 different threads. Either explain or quit trolling.
Not directed at you:
In general, always blaming the goalie is a cop out and is not an accurate depiction of what went on during the game.
6-2 as a back up goalie isn't to shabby.

Gotta bury those chances where you get them. He ain't Tuukka, they've gotta help him out more. He had a bad game but there were plenty of chances for this team to put the game away before it even got to that point.

Wow, good game to miss out on. Johnson's record is great, his stats are solid, but he hasn't exactly faced the cream of the crop of NHL teams, has had some offensive support to let a few earlier softies slip, and hasn't played so much as to get burnt out. Goaltending is an ungrateful task, but you'll get praise when you play well and you'll ultimately get criticism when you let in softies. I'm sure he'll bounce back, as long as he doesn't revert to preseason shape.
36 shots against Miller and 23 against Ocho, that does make it sound like we ought to have had more than one effective PP and/or less than 3 PK's (one of which was a 5 on 3 for a while), I didn't see the penalty calls/non-calls, but that's just annoying, albeit nothing out of the ordinary.
Get them next time, boys! Another game that I will miss (we have a losing record when I'm not watching and a .750+ record when I do, so fingers crossed!)

I suspect by how this thread's going that reasonably intelligent discussion isn't going to happen tonight?
No?
No.

Fascinating "effort" all around. At least Marshy came to play, for the most part.

Yeah, in general, this is probably true, but tonight, from what I saw, blaming the goalie would be pretty accurate.
My son had power skating so I didn't get home until the 3rd period. I turn on the game and for the better part of the entire period, I watch Boston pressure the puck, generate chances, and pretty much force BUF to dump the puck out into the NZ with little possession. Miller handles everything thrown at him.
With 6 minutes left, BUF gets what feels like their first chance all period on Stafford's wrap around. The D keeps him outside (as he should) and Stafford circles the net, while CJ takes an ETERNITY to go post to post, allowing Stafford to put it home. At first I thought the puck must have gone off a B in front because there was no way CJ didn't get over. However, the replay shows a clean goal.
Fast forward about 80 seconds, B's are now down one inside 5 minutes, pressing, and Warsofsky makes a bad pinch. Looch tries to get back, but then Myers joins the play as well and scores. Once again, at first glance, I'm thinking just a really nice shot by Myers, but the replay shows a goalie too deep in his crease, and slow to react. The camera behind the net shows that Myers shot, which I thought was just inside the post, was actually closer to the middle of the net. The D and back-checking F's were partially to blame, but Johnson gets the lion share imo.
You expect your goalie to make the saves he should make and occasionally make some he shouldn't. I thought those two in the 3rd were definitely "stoppable". People keep talking about CJ's 6-2 record, but personally, I think that record is due more to the fact that the B's are a good team, than from Johnson being a good goalie.
The B's may want to look at a reliable, veteran option for a backup goalie.

No worries. Bruins played a decent game but Miller played great. Bruins will smoke em on Saturday.

According to morons Looch didn't fight Weber because he is scared of Scott. Um how many times have these 2 teams played since the Miller incident? If Scott had an issue with Lucic he would have addressed it by now.

Meh, it is what it is. Johnson wasn't on his A game tonight, and the Bruins faced a hot goalie in Miller. Don't really think it was a lack of effort.
