10/15 @ Detroit

[FelixMantilla]

First game of a back to back.
 
Let's score some freakin' goals.

 

[TheRealness]

Simon Gagne will lead us to the promise land. 

 

[TSC]

Connor McDavid?

 

[TSC]

I totally would not be opposed to a Colts 2011 type season where the Bruins COMPELTELY tank to get someone who could be the next Sidney Crosby.
 
Though they would probably trade him in 4 years for T.J. Oshie and two first round picks.

the problem with this though is that unlike football, hockey has a lottery. So even tanking would not guarantee getting him

There is always Jack Eichel.

[RedOctober3829]

How come they have to go to Detroit twice in a span of a couple weeks seemingly every season now that DET is in the division?

 

[kenneycb]

First 6 games, all back to backs.  Go NHL.

 

[Salem's Lot]

 

 

 
 

 
He wouldn't fit our system. He's not dumping it into the corner and mucking along the wall for 40 seconds to set up a shot right into the goalies chest.

Did their suck create a wormhole that swallowed Sunday?

 

[kenneycb]

Sunday was a lost day for me, so yes, yes they did.

 

[Over Guapo Grande]

Did you try a cpap machine? 

 

[TheRealness]

Lines for tonight, per @NHLBruins:
 
Lucic-Krejci-Griffith
Marchand-Bergeron-Smith
Kelly-Soderberg-Eriksson
Paille-Spooner-Gagne
 
Chara-Hamilton
Bartkowski-Seidenberg
Krug-McQuaid

 

[cshea]

Griffith sticks out like a sore thumb, but that's probably the best lineup they can ice at this point. Hopefully the Gagne experiment works out closer to Brian Rolston's last hurrah than the Jay Pandolfo era.

 

[TSC]

Dive for McDavid!

 

[TSC]

McSuck for McDavid

 

[TSC]

Be a bad team for Eichel!

 

[PedroSpecialK]

I thought Griffith was solid on the top line, I'm intrigued to see what else he can do there - for me it depends on whether or not Lucic can pick up his game

 

[sachmoney]

Spike for Eich?

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

this is at 8?
 
C'mon NBCSN

 

[allstonite]

8:10 because the Bruins and Red Wings are rivals

 

[FelixMantilla]

Holy shit was that beautiful!

 

[Dollar]

KREJCI!

 

[McDrew]

Wow.  Great move for Krecji

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

#NOTAGIMPANYMORE

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

Some nice looking giddy up there! Wooo!!!

 

[Nomar813]

Krejci!

[McBride11]

Krejci with a sick finish. That IR stint was useful.

 

[SawxSince67]

Enjoyable.

 

[McDrew]

Krecji's foot-work has been really good so far.  Haven't noticed it before. 

 

[SawxSince67]

"loocheech"...hmmm...sounds familiar...

[TSC]

Nice pass, Looch

 

[FelixMantilla]

What a clusterfuck.

 

[Jeff Frye's Face Mask]

Just yuck.

 

[HomeBrew1901]

I honestly don't know what to think about this game

 

[McBride11]

Bad turnover. Good forecheck and finish for Det. They arent a bad team.

 

[HomeBrew1901]

I'm enjoying how aggressive they have been playing

 

[FelixMantilla]

They always miss the initial penalty, don't they.

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

Milbury on his soapbox again. Is this going to be a regular segment every bloody game?

And speaking of soapboxes, it looks like they no longer make McHugh stand on one. Interesting.

 

[FelixMantilla]

Marchand, how the FUCK do you miss burying that?

 

[Dollar]

Love the assholes in the stands behind the B's bench laughing at Doug Houda bleeding out of the top of his head.  Stay classy, Detroit.

 

[SawxSince67]

Houda laughing, "be right back, fellas..."

 

[FelixMantilla]

Ridiculous. Soderberg ends up with the only penalty.

 

[The Napkin]

All these scrims leading to a single penalty. Good times.

 

[The Napkin]

Scrums too

 

[TSC]

Has Lucic had a single positive play all season?
