Be Bruins fan in Boston Wake up in apartment after falling asleep on the couch. Watched replay of the Pats Super Bowl win last night. Game was incredibly boring, but a lot better than one of the Giants reruns.

“Fack that Eli Manning” Hear neighbor through the wall “Fackin queeah” Finish the 3/4 full warm Sam Adams you didn’t quite finish last night. Might as well keep the party going the Bruins are playing tonight and you got tickets. Just gotta watch The Departed before leaving.

“Hows ya motha hahaha” Better start heading out. Throw on Barstool Sports Bruins shirt. Kiss framed picture of the 2011 Bruins 4th line before leaving. Meet neighbor outside, also wearing a Barstool Bruins shirt.

“Wicked choice brudda” Wait way too long for your transit, something about a fire. Arrive downtown in a bad mood. Random homeless guy is kneeling on the street asking for change. Sucker punch him in the back of the head. Immediately sprint to the biggest guy in a Bruins jersey you can find and hide behind him. Biggest guy also starts throwing suckers.

“That’s whatcha get for messing wit tha broons” Crowd applauds Tell big guy that him punching that man was brave, almost as brave as Gregory Campbell blocking shots on the penalty kill with a broken leg in 2013. Get inside the garden. Warmups are going on. Marchand is eyeing up the opposing team, deciding who he’ll lick or knee tonight. Maybe he’ll do both. “Guys hate him because he’s elite” Marchand suddenly throws his stick and gloves in the air, falls and stays laying down for the next 5 minutes.

Apparently a gentle breeze swept through the ice and caught him in the head. After the huge injury, luckily Marchand gets up threatening to fight the air. Crowd goes wild. “Fackin aih tryna be tough.” Bruins bring out some sort of army veteran before the national anthem. Remind person sitting next to you that while the troops are brave, no one is braver than Gregory Campbell blocking shots on the penalty kill with a broken leg in 2013.

Game starts Jeremy Swayman makes 5 massive saves in a row. “Swayyy” “Best goalie in dah league” 5 minutes later Swayman lets in a goal he had no chance of stopping. “Booooo” “Thomas woulda had that” McAvoy starts an unnecessary scrum in front of the net. Gets lightly tapped and nearly sends his helmet into orbit.

“Yanno I hate seein guys beat up on the lil guys, pick on someone yah own size” Brazeau beheads some 5’9 rookie 3 minutes later. “That’s betta” Some random fan is wearing a PK Subban, or Joel Ward, or Wayne Simmonds, or Seth Jones etc.. jersey. Stand up and boo him. Section applauds you. Another fan comes up to you to say that your actions were brave, but nobody is braver than Gregory Campbell blocking shots on the penalty kill with a broken leg in 2013. Game isn’t going well.

Eventually the Bruins end up losing the game but only because of the refs. score was 4-3 Take transit home, again waiting because of a fire. Get home. Replay of the Red Sox championship is playing. Might cheer you up on any other day, but too busy focusing on the Bruins loss tonight. Somethings off about this team.

“Gettin pushed around out theah” Neighbor yells through wall “f*** yah they ah” Flashbacks of Blues knocking the Bruins around start to come back. Get up off the couch. Walk over to framed picture of the Bruins 2011 4th line. Wonder where it all went wrong “I’ll never get over you guys”

third period no scoring.. kinda surprised? how did we look overall?

I think overall the team looked OK. Obviously Barkov and Tkachuk out really hurts, and a lot of the new guys need more time to acclimate, but overall I'm happy with it.

I gotta again say that I'm very impressed with Patrick Giles. Undrafted, didn't set the world on fire in Charlotte, but fits this team to a tee. Uses his size well.
