We'll see what the lineup looks like after morning skate. My guess is tonight will be mostly regulars, except for Krejci, then they bring Providence to Montreal. We'll see though.

Celtics play Sat 4/15 and then potentially Monday?
So guessing Bruins will be a Tuesday start.

Full lineup tonight except for Krejci. They are hopefull he'll be ready for game 1. Lauko and Zboril sitting. Not sure exactly how the lines shake out but my guess:

Marchand - Bergeron - DeBrusk
Hall - Zacha - Pastrnak
Bertuzzi - Coyle - Frederic
Greer - Nosek - Hathaway

Grzelyck - McAvoy
Lindholm - Carlo
Orlov - Clifton

Ullmark

Would rather see Lauko over Greer personally. I think he's more than earned to be playing over him.

Being a B’s fan and not really a NHL fan (not knowing who is who league wide), I am pleasantly surprised by Bert… I was expecting a typical “grinder/thumper. “ that were pickups of trade deadlines past. I was totally unaware of his play making

Does anyone have the puck disappearing on the ice in certain spots behind the artificial ads just over the blue lines? In between the faceoff circles? Not anywhere near the actual text of the add but like in the white space of the ice?

Why does everyone dislike Dale? He's never bothered me, then again I almost never watch pre/post/intermission. Then again I'm rarely bothered by announcers in any sports outside a few

edit: ew double "then agains"

For me it is a mix of his lack of insightful commentary and his inability to tell a joke that isn’t also a tired ass cliche’. Perhaps I’m being a bit harsh, but he just never brought much to the table IMHO

Just an interesting (to me at least) tidbit from Monty's pregame interview on 98.5. When asked about the challenge in the goalie interference over the weekend, and if he'd do it in a closer playoff game, his answer was basically no, the reason we did it was to try to help one of our guys reach a milestone, as it would have been Pasta's 59th. Just another nugget of how awesome this team is.

He's so milquetoast his family mistook him for bread pudding and tried to serve him for Christmas dessert.

Linus!

The passing of Bertuzzi-Zacha-Pasta is otherworldly. Like they got that telepathic link installed that Bergeron and Marchand have
