The extra day before game 6 is going to be a godsend. The guys are exhausted and an extra day to see if Brad can make it back.
Once this team figures out how to extend a lead on breakaway chances again, they'll be unstoppable.
I didn’t watch the game, I did the same thing with game 7 against Toronto. Tonight I just didn’t want to deal with any bullshit reffing that took away from the actual game. Sounds like the first period has some nutty calls and then we held on (barely) after the 2nd goal. Bummed I missed a win but so glad I can watch it now and Bonus, The lawn is mowed!
I hope one of the Boston reporters asks Maurice what he thought of the goal that was not overturned.
That smarmy fucking ballbag.

Also: boneheaded late icing aside, McAvoy was huge tonight.
And along these lines, Coyle and Zacha have sure sucked so far.

I would still very much like an explanation on the league on why the play was blown dead in the first period when the bruins had bob out of position.
They'd just say that the refs thought he was hurt by the shot and vulnerable.
Not today. I'll just have to complain about how dumb people are around here. That should get me through the day.
How is goodness calculated? I mean, I get points and +/- stuff but there seems to be a lot that goes into the bars.
Monty: "players aren't buying into what we're looking for on the pp. we need to have a meeting and talk about it"
yikes.
yikes.
honestly a lot of the charts is voodoo to me (like I have no idea how Coyle was so + tonight) but in general it's to me at least) a quick easy way to see who had what kind of a night.
think it's based on this model

I only just saw it, but apparently Justin Bourne campaigned heavily that McAvoy’s goal should be disallowed as Heinen interfered with Bobrovsky in the build-up. As usual, Canadian sports media can get fucked.
Ryan Callahan was campaigning for it to be disallowed too. Maybe he still feels his leg breaking from a Chara slapshot.
No idea about Callahan but Bourne thought the league made the right call on the Bennett goal. IIRC, he used the phantom "didn't matter anyway" reasoning, of which I have a host of problems with. Didn't see what he said last night.
I thought last night it was pretty obvious that Bob got reset and was square to McAvoy well before the shot enters the frame. And the stick was dislodged by OEL. Seemed cut and dry to me but the rule is officiated so inconsistently that nobody knows.
You can’t. He is the guy now. Linus has to be break glass in case of emergency only.
I can’t find a clip of it, but on Sportsnet’s morning recap show, they played a clip of him saying Heinen made contact with Bobrovsky, and his stick jammed his skate. Also something about how Bob couldn’t reset, but yeah. He’s clearly part of the Fuck Boston crowd.
Marek and Friedman both thought it was coming back (although as usual neither gave their opinion of what they would’ve called). And of course Friedman joked that it counted to prevent riots from Boston fans.
Nah--shots basically even (29-28, and Bruins were up til the end), outhit them. They just went there and won.
