Saturday matinee time. 3:30 EST. Time to Punctuate our Pugnacious play and show the caps who has the bigger fonts!

After the drubbing of the Canucks, I feel good about @Dewey's 'stache taking care of things in here.

Maybe 63-10-9 isn't out of the question? Just saying.
Getting veteran support as a rookie thread starter means a great deal. Right now, I’m just happy to be here and God willing, put together a string of Game Thread starts that lead our Bruins to victory upon victory.

I don’t have final lineups, so there are some double entries.

There is a chance that forward Anthony Richard gets his Bruins debut in today’s matinee.


Saturday’s Projected Lineup
FORWARDS

Brad Marchand – Charlie Coyle – Jake DeBrusk

James van Riemsdyk – Pavel Zacha – David Pastrnak

Jakub Lauko – Morgan Geekie – Trent Frederic

Danton Heinen – Jesper Boqvist – Anthony Richard/Oskar Steen

DEFENSEMEN

Matt Grzelcyk – Charlie McAvoy

Hampus Lindholm – Brandon Carlo

Derek Forbort – Parker Wootherspoon/Kevin Shattenkirk

GOALIES

Jeremy Swayman/Linus Ullmark

This is probably the least talented Caps team in twenty years. Ovi is 38, Oshie is 37 and hasn't done squat this year. Backstrom is done and Kuznetzov is on long-term hiatus. That leaves...Dylan Strome and John Carlson maybe?

So happy this is ABC/ESPN. They know how to produce hockey games unlike NESN. Or are willing to spend the money, I should say.

Too much play at the wrong end of the ice. I don't feel like there have been serious chances, but I'm not happy shots are 4-0 against.

Announcer: "Tee three best chances were by the Caps." The Bruins didn't even have a shot on goal.

They haven't looked right since the break. The two shorties and pinball goal from last game covered up a pretty mediocre effort on their part. Need to figure this out.

So Gryz gets checked dangerously into the boards (is boarding by actual definition), no call.... and then he gets the 5 for this... right call... but damn... classic no call leads to bullshit on the retaliation

Thought it was light at first blush, but on replay I can't really complain.

Just a terrible play by Gryz.

Sometimes its just a matter of surviving a (very) bad period. They did that, thanks to Sway.
