Game 3: Bruins vs. Toronto

[SoxFanInCali]

Cross-check right in front of the net.

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

That was it

 

[Salem's Lot]

Wtf pasta.

How TF is that not a cross check on Jake???

You think a road team is getting that in Toronto?

 

[Dr. Gonzo]

Debrusk decked in the back.

 

[Ale Xander]

Hey he won one

 

[RSN Diaspora]

Jesus. They just can’t finish.

 

[ifmanis5]

Don't shoot in right into him. Sigh.

 

[HomeBrew1901]

That sucked

 

[catomatic]

"Crosscheck from behind," the announcer said it, himself...

 

[Boston Brawler]

Mother fucker

 

[NJ_Sox_Fan]

That sucked

 

[Ale Xander]

Fuck

We had 6 sticks they had 4 plus Anderson

 

[Maximus]

Played from our heels tonight, Toronto took it to us. Krug was lousy and our top line was invisible. Rask was solid.

 

[NYCSox]

Oh fuck off iPhone boy.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Good job.

Game 4 is a must-win

 

[Dr. Gonzo]

Kill them Wednesday

 

[McBride11]

You think a road team is getting that in Toronto?

It was the most blatant cross check ever (besides Kadri). It was a perfect setup ruined by a blown call

 

[joe dokes]

Just a hair off on everything.

 

[durandal1707]

Pasta has been off all series

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Miserable game.

 

[cshea]

They are in big trouble if they can’t get the top line going.

 

[CreedBratton]

Such a tough loss. Season likely on the line Wednesday

 

[Bergs]

Well that fucking sucked.

 

[JCizzle]

Pasta had a couple weird shots tonight where he looked almost timid if that's the right word for it

 

[Reardon's Beard]

Too much thinking, not enough shooting.

 

[RSN Diaspora]

Even with an extra attacker we couldn’t control the puck. Just dreadful.

 

[ColdSoxPack]

Oh well. Hats off to the Leafs. We need to show up next game angry

 

[TheoShmeo]

I expected to split in Toronto. And that’s exactly what’s going to happen.

 

[Red Averages]

Damn, felt like they had a good shot to win this one

 

[Helmet Head]

Credit to the leafs defense, they made it tough on the Bruins, specifically the Bergeron line.

 

[Salem's Lot]

It was the most blatant cross check ever (besides Kadri). It was a perfect setup ruined by a blown call

You’re kidding yourself if you think you’re getting a call there in Toronto.

 

[Zososoxfan]

Their d was really good for most of the game and it was still there to be tied. Series expected to be close is close. Need to finish chances and clear the defensive zone when it’s there. Win Wednesday.

 

[Lupe Whalewatch]

This is going 7

 

[cshea]

It was the most blatant cross check ever (besides Kadri). It was a perfect setup ruined by a blown call

So they’d get a PP with what 20 seconds left?

 

[durandal1707]

Need to get a lead. Very tough to climb back when the Leafs can park the bus in front of Andersen.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

The chance was the Heinen to Coyle pass that was a little too hot. Probably their only odd man rush of the game.

 

[TFP]

So they’d get a PP with what 20 seconds left?

And a complete inability to win a faceoff.

 

[RedOctober3829]

Got to break up the 1st line. Heinen with 1st line and Pasta with Krejci.

 

[The Long Tater]

Played from our heels tonight, Toronto took it to us. Krug was lousy and our top line was invisible. Rask was solid.

Good summary

 

[McBride11]

So they’d get a PP with what 20 seconds left?

So we shouldn't call penalties because there isn't much time? Still a missed call.

The Bs got out played most of the game and Pasta and the whole top line aren't performing up to par. They were slow and flat relative to Toronto. That is why they lost.

 

[cshea]

The officiating has been fine. I’ll take is all series, hope it continues. The Bruins 1st and 4th lines are losing their matchups and the penalty kill has stunk.

 

[TFP]

Played from our heels tonight, Toronto took it to us. Krug was lousy and our top line was invisible. Rask was solid.

Add Carlo to the bad pile and that about sums it up.

 

[durandal1707]

Got to break up the 1st line. Heinen with 1st line and Pasta with Krejci.

All for this. Hopefully MoJo will be back as well.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

The one thing I take solace in is that frustrating and annoying but ultimately exciting 7 game series wins against hated division rivals is very on brand and has meant good things for the Bruins.

 

[Salem's Lot]

Played from our heels tonight, Toronto took it to us. Krug was lousy and our top line was invisible. Rask was solid.

I thought it was a pretty even game. Toronto had a better power play so they won. Each team gave up a shit goal at 5 on 5. Sometimes the other team plays well too. Game 1 I thought was a complete no show. This one was different, they gave a solid effort tonight just not enough finish.

 

[j44thor]

Pasta needs to get out of power forward mode and into sniper mode. Looking for hits more than creating offense simply isn't what he is paid to do. Would have like to see Coyle more, seems to be making the most of his very limited ice time this series.

 

[NYCSox]

I worry that Johansson may not be the only one fighting a bug. Pasta in particular looked way off.

 

[McBride11]

The officiating has been fine. I’ll take is all series, hope it continues. The Bruins 1st and 4th lines are losing their matchups and the penalty kill has stunk.

On the whole yup, completely agree, I was annoyed by a call. Happens.

Pasta and the first gotta figure it out. Or they arent going anywhere anyway.

Is shifting Pasta the key? He just seems sluggish , tentative.

 

[Salem's Lot]

I worry that Johansson may not be the only one fighting a bug. Pasta in particular looked way off.

Yeah that was my first thought.

 

[The Napkin]

I’m still pretty zen about it all. Win Wednesday and make it a 3 game series with home ice. We got this.
