10/18 - Doing it Again @ Ottawa

[Cotillion]

What a start to the period!! Greer!!!

 

[Jordu]

Wow. Greer leads the team in goals.

 

[Murby]

LOL - Greer is a keeper, eh? Goodness this is fun hockey.

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Hey Gord, can you go fuck yourself? We know who picks 16-18 were in 2015.

 

[barclay]

Accumulated wisdom has it that a terrible team, hyped up by a big ceremony and a superior team on a back-to-back, may take an early lead only to come back to reality. Of course accumulated wisdom allows for exceptions. In this case accumulated wisdom appears to be predictive. Have to remember that next time I'm in Vegas.

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Just once, before he or Crosby retires, I want Marchand to “crash” one of the MacKinnon-Crosby Tim Hortons commercials.

 

[NJ_Sox_Fan]

Some real slop there

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Swayman looks like he’s fighting it big time tonight.

 

[Bozo Texino]

Keep seeing updates on my phone. I really wish I could catch this game on TV. Arg.

 

[Cotillion]

Ahhh... didn't realize the rule has been tweaked... great... now they've added additional subjectivity to Icing... "who they think will get to it first"

 

[NJ_Sox_Fan]

Keep seeing updates on my phone. I really wish I could catch this game on TV. Arg.

ESPN+ has it

 

[Cotillion]

Damn... tough one to stop...

 

[bsl394]

Good thing about this team, compared to last years, is that you know a 1 goal deficit in the 2nd isn't going to be enough. Bruins will score at least two more this game.

 

[Cotillion]

Knob of swayman's stick stopped that wraparound

 

[cshea]

Call up Kinkaid.

 

[Cotillion]

Been swarming for a bit, and it pays off for the Senators again

 

[bsl394]

Really sloppy tonight. Hope it's just the back to back taking its toll.

 

[Jordu]

The defensive breakdowns are concerning.

 

[McDrew]

After DeBrusk got a point on the first goal, I fired up ms paint and made this.

 

[katnado]

Call up Kinkaid.

I'm almost at this point ironically. Swayman has looked pretty rough in both starts against not great teams. Staple him to the bench until Ully struggles.

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Can’t keep him out there.

 

[Murby]

Well….getting ugly. Grrr.

 

[Cotillion]

I mean... he's being hungout to dry on a bunch of these... why was Lindholm just standing there?

 

[Salem's Lot]

The defensive breakdowns are concerning.

We knew that playing a couple months without McAvoy playing 20 minutes of elite defense per night was going to have an effect.

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

And the defence need both Grzelcyk and McAvoy back BAD.

 

[Myt1]

I mean, he’s gotta save a couple of those.

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Who’s up for some football?

 

[Cotillion]

Another Bruin's stick just explodes on its own again

 

[Cotillion]

Foligno makes something happen

 

[Cotillion]

And Lindholm again with a weird ass play...

 

[barclay]

Last time I saw slop like this was my wife's cooking before the divorce

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Both those last two Ottawa goals were Bruins defence PAIRS losing forecheck battles and F3 getting caught looking. It feels really weird to say, but I think Forbort’s been hands-down their best defenceman.

 

[The Napkin]

Can't watch, they playing with big nets or ... ?

 

[katnado]

Can't watch, they playing with big nets or ... ?

Swayman can't stop a beach ball and the bruins defense has decided to not not realize there was a game today

 

[Scoops Bolling]

This game is fucking absurd.

 

[cshea]

lol

 

[Cotillion]

PASTA

 

[cshea]

Told you the Senators defense was bad. Problem is they can score

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

I think that 88 could be a good one.

 

[Jordu]

This is nuts, and not really in a fun way.

 

[Cotillion]

Man... rival announcers love to chuckle about how much each of these goals by Pasta are going to cost the Bruins in his next contract... every game

 

[The Napkin]

Looks like they’ll need another 5 goals tonight

I've got good news and bad news...

 

[bsl394]

If the D and Swayman can put together one good period the Bruins will win this one.

 

[Cotillion]

I still want to know what Lindholm was doing on the 6th goal... he got in a bit of a battle than sagged away from the goal and the guy in between him and the goal... and then just let the play happen in front of him as it got passed back out to the front...

 

[Cotillion]

Alright.... buckle yourselves in... 3rd period about to start...

 

[bsl394]

Linus in net for the 3rd

 

[Cotillion]

Refs have really let them play for the most part...

 

[bsl394]

Bruins doing a good job clogging up the neutral zone is going to cause a lot of teams to jump and chase. Right now the Bruins haven't been good in defending that. Getting beat to the dumps and having problems breaking it out.

 

[Cotillion]

A dive really? Come the fuck on...

 

[bsl394]

Calling on a dive on that is horrible. Stick in the groin will make anyone go down like that.
