Bruins @ Capitals

[j44thor]

So Claude drew names out of a hat to come up with the lines tonight correct? Must win game and he completely fucks up the lines yet still gets Campbell in the lineup.

 

[BoSoxFink]

Why did he fuck with the lines?

 

[cshea]

Because they haven't been scoring.

 

[BoSoxFink]

Game thread is dead

 

[TheRealness]

Is anybody getting a feedback noise from the NBCSPORTS feed?

 

[teddykgb]

Game thread is dead

Anger leading to silence

 

[TSC]

Because they haven't been scoring.

I'm not sure I agree with his attempted solution.

 

[BoSoxFink]

Why the fuck couldn't pitt have fucking hung on yesterday?

 

[BoSoxFink]

Why the fuck is Pastrnak playing with Campbell? This is stupid

 

[Titoschew]

It could be about 9-0.

 

[BoSoxFink]

I missed the first, but if this period is anything like the first was, this is a pods poor showing for a team that should be desperate.

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

Kill me

 

[BoSoxFink]

Breakaway Lucic, let's go five hole! There's a surprise.

 

[Nomar813]

Fuck Holtby in the five hole.

 

[Kenny F'ing Powers]

This team gets two breakaways a night and can't ever fucking bury their chances. fuck.

 

[jk333]

No sustained pressure at all

 

[TSC]

I seriously can't believe Campbell is playing over Paille.

And they might as well bench Pastrnak if they're going to play him with Campbell. Complete waste of his ability.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

No sustained pressure at all

These lines need to get used to each other. Give them a few games

 

[BoSoxFink]

Why does that moron always go five hole on a breakaway? It's so predictable. Do something different.

 

[YesYesY'all]

Spooner wide open net and passes it. 

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

Shooooot the puck Ryan!

 

[Titoschew]

Might be dreaming but I think Spooner dished off when the net was wide open

 

[BoSoxFink]

Might be dreaming but I think Spooner dished off when the net was wide open

no you aren't dreaming. He passed up the empty net for a better shot.

 

[YesYesY'all]

I guess I don't know what interference is. 

 

[catomatic]

Mitts of stone means no confidence in fancy dekes.
 
I hate Brooks Orpik.

 

[YesYesY'all]

Chara is deadly with the 60 foot unobstructed wrister. 

 

[One Red Seat]

I could have stopped Lucic's breakaway. He just shot it right at him. No creativity at all. Looked like goalie practice

 

[Titoschew]

Good fight, good night.

 

[BoSoxFink]

I could have stopped Lucic's breakaway. He just shot it right at him. No creativity at all. Looked like goalie practice

That's Milan Lucic

 

[One Red Seat]

Fork.
All that B's pressure....can't come away with nothing to show for it.
Next game

 

[jk333]

Kelly missed the net... On the other end Bad defense.

 

[BoSoxFink]

Pierre makes a good point for once here. I would think about pulling Rask for the 3rd.

 

[jk333]

0-3 going into the 3rd. Maybe we can use the real lines starting in the beginning of the 3rd

 

[j44thor]

I could have stopped Lucic's breakaway. He just shot it right at him. No creativity at all. Looked like goalie practice

 
Worst part is that he didn't have his stick down ready for the rebound that came right back to him.
Classic PS NHL goal waiting to happen.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Words can't describe how badly Seidenberg fell asleep on Johansson's goal.

Very relieved I sold my tix for this one

 

[BoSoxFink]

Holtby is the new Lundquist against the Bruins.

 

[SidelineCameras]

I feel like they're going to score on Holtby once, open the floodgates, and get like a hundred goals.

Of course I've been feeling that way since 2012 so...

 

[Zososoxfan]

This game is so fucked. Unless I'm missing something, there was no reason to changeup the lines so much considering recent team success.

You know a lot more than me, but I thought Krug gave up the lane way too easily. Sure, Seids didn't get over fast enough, but this is Krug's lack of size biting the B's.

Krug was on his man, no? Seidenbergs forward scored the goal.

 

[catomatic]

Aqualung on the arena organ?
 
I tune in as I can tolerate it but every time I do it appears to me that they are losing fair and square.

 

[SpacemanzGerbil]

I'm pretty much over the whole two defensemen standing still breakout play. It makes it 3 on 5 going up ice for fuck's sake.

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

Aqualung on the arena organ?
 

... and their PA announcer sounds like something out of a monster truck rally.

FUCK!

 

[jk333]

Bring back Looch/Pasta/spooner!

 

[Nomar813]

If this team tried to bury Jimmy Hoffa he would have been found within an hour.

Krug was flat footed and the best he could hope for was to force his guy outside. Seidenberg just sucks at transition defense.

 

[TSC]

So now there's two teams that absolutely own Boston - Montreal, and Washington.

Good luck advancing in the playoffs when you can't beat either of those teams.

 

[teddykgb]

Is it possible to have "not shooting it into the defenseman" practice?

 

[jk333]

Bring back Looch/Pasta/spooner!

Claude listened, old lines are back now. Pasta/looch/spoon krejci/bergy/Marchand loui/soderberg/smith

 

[teddykgb]

Well that pretty much does it

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

A failed Paille breakaway right here would at least provide a sliver of hope. Oh well.
