How about them Bruins.

[Bruins Fan]

I'm liking this edition.:cl

[Porch Dweller]

I did not expect this start given the players they were missing to kick off the season.

I'd love to see Pasta get 50+ this season. He would have had it in the '19-'20 season if not for Kung Flu.

Did you happen to see the crazy goal he scored last night?
I can't get a link to it.

[AdamJoshua]

All i know is NO RASK!!!!!

Yep, the back-hander from the corner. That puck had eyes on it, that's for sure.

Here's a link to it. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzoNqObETOA)

[Porch Dweller]

Krejci's supposed to be in the lineup tonight.

:tu That's welcome news!

[Bruins Fan]

Congratulations to the captain Patrice Bergeron for his 1000 point last night in Tampa. :ih

[Porch Dweller]

I was on the road so didn't see the game, unfortunately. Congratulations, El capitan!

[icehog3]

They're pretty ****ing impressive to this point, hopefully they can stay healthy, especially in the net.

[mosesbotbol]

A friend of mine has two season tickets and had been asking me to go with her to a game. That was last season and I haven't heard from her yet this season.

[Bruins Fan]

Going to be a good one tonight. Butch Cassidy brings his Golden Knights to town two teams playing the same system, and the Knights looking to break the streak.
Should be a barn burner?

[Porch Dweller]

I haven't seen much of Vegas this year, so don't know much about them.

[Bruins Fan]

First place in the West.

[icehog3]

Great run at home to start the season, even with the injuries. If the goaltending holds up they should have another good run in April.

[Porch Dweller]

Nice win against Edmonton. Damn, but MacDavid is fun to watch. Not so much when he's playing against your team, but still, what a great player.

Best player in the league right now for my money. I'd love to see Edmonton shore up the D and goaltending and make a run.

[Bruins Fan]

Wow Sweeney loaded up with a third big time defenseman with Orlov he is being called Bobby Orrlov
3 goals and 5 assists in the 4 games he has played. Can't wait to watch Bertuzzi play his first game today against the Rangers, he says he is very, very.happy to be in Boston.

[icehog3]

Yeah, that Orlov trade is looking huge right now.

Did Bertuzzi ever get cleared by the league to play in Canada? As I remember he was the last vaccine holdout in the league.

Orlov seems thrilled to have a coach that lets the D get more involved offensively.

[Bruins Fan]

Yes he picked up another point,Bruins win 10th straight.

[Tio Gato]

This team really takes me back to the days of Orr, Esposito and The Chief. Nice trade pick ups look positive right away. :banger

[Porch Dweller]

Congrat's to Pasta for being the first B since Cam the Man to score 50 in a season. Of course, he would have done it back in 2020 if it weren't for Schmovid.

Congrats to Pasta on another monster season. Buti with apologies to Duke Ellington, "It don't mean a thing, if you ain't got that Ring".... :D

Very true. They don't have a great track record when it comes to turning being the best during the regular season into a Cup. But I'm hoping...

They don't have Tuukka, so maybe that is a playoff plus? :D

Congratulations to the Bruins for wrapping up the Presidents Cup with 121 points tied for the most in franchises history.

[Porch Dweller]

[icehog3]

Congratulations.

And don't let me be the one to point out that less than 25% of the President's Trophy winners go on to win the Cup. ;) ;s

Yes. There's always a chance.... -(P

[Porch Dweller]

Another big day for Pasta yesterday, going over 100 points on the season and getting a hat trick along with the GWG. It tied him with Cam Neely for second all time on the Bs for hat tricks with 14.

Bs get another big win, and Ullmark saves my fantasy season by giving up 3 goals. Win - Win. :tu "r

Amazing what a difference not haven't f u c k i n g choke artist piece of s h i t Rask on the team can do.

Yes yes I know what you are going to say but in the words of Flo ... stow it, Tom. :r

[icehog3]

:sh

Ourmatchupwasthisclose, Mark. Great week and great season, Brother.

[AdamJoshua]

Pasta nets #57 in OT to give the Bruin's their 61st win of the season. Sweet

[AdamJoshua]

Fantastic season so far. Amazing when you have great goaltending it helps keeping those win streaks going, you don't win two and have a goalie that gives up 6 goals with 3 of them soft in the next game, nothing ends win streaks like shitty goalies and "general soreness".

[icehog3]

I think it's good that they're giving Patrice and a couple hard working defensemen some time off. The record is great, but if you don't win the Cup it's just a record.

[AdamJoshua]

Ullmark dropping the gloves, smart or not, but they are all in. So he can add game misconduct for fighting to his goal scored stat. lol

[Bruins Fan]

A little tired of all the cheap shots from Tkachuk.always at the end of the period.
What a punk.

Was going to post the same thing...but I would've used a different word than "punk". :D

[icehog3]

Tkachuk seems to me the type that you would love on your team, and hate on the other 31.

Bruins have this series firmly in hand, see if they can finish in 5 and get some rest before the Semis.

[Bruins Fan]

Tkachuk skated to the Bruins bench and called Tomas Model wife a fu --n wh--e.
class act.

NHL hit Tkachuk with a $5000 fine for his crosscheck.

Yeah, the kid can still scrap though. ;)

[Bruins Fan]

Bert had been outstanding, he is fearless in the dirty areas and he produces, he has points in all four games.

[Porch Dweller]

After that non-called trip that led to FLA going up 6-5 I turned the game off. The officiating is so atrocious in the NHL it's pathetic.

[Porch Dweller]

And they wrap up their season:

[Bruins Fan]

It was a fun season, it was painful to watch the Bruins snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
The lights were to bright for a few players.

[AdamJoshua]

Hell of a fun season, the president is curse continues. Looking forward to how they grow next season.

[icehog3]

Crazy night with the Panthers beating the President's Trophy winners (and all time wins/points leader), and an expansion team taking out the defending Stanley Cup Champs. Two new teams in the Final this year with the Avs and Tampa out.

[MitchellMcgarr]

Avs, Ning, and Bruins all out. Very surprising to say the least. As a Panthers fan, I’m absolutely stunned that we pulled off beating the Bruins. Besides going through multiple panic attacks through this series, I’m still alive. Onto Toronto we go. Who do you all have in the Stanley Cup finals? I’d love to see the Panthers of course. If not this year after beating the best team in the NHL, when? I’m trying to put my biased hat aside but I can’t. Toronto is very good and this series will push at least 6, if not 7. I’ll never sleep on the hurricanes. Winner of rangers/devils will be dangerous. But I got The cats representing the East and the Oilers representing the west.

Florida is battle tested and Edmonton on paper and probably also in actuality is the best team left in the tourney. This is where I take my biased hat off. Edmonton would beat up the Panthers in 5, we are that outmatched. If somehow the Knights, or the Kraken or Stars could take them out, anything is possible in playoff hockey, I’d like our chances against any of the 3 other western conference teams.

[Bruins Fan]

The Tuukka curse crept into linus,typical Euro tender.

[Porch Dweller]

For some reason I think Carolina is going all the way.

[icehog3]

Right now I'm pulling for Edmonton in the West and Florida in the East. But wouldn't be shocked if they both get knocked out this round too.

[Porch Dweller]

Hell of a fun season, the president is curse continues. Looking forward to how they grow next season.

There's also the Porch Dweller Curse. The only time my teams (Patriots, Bruins, Red Sox) win championships is if I'm out of the country. I was home, so no Stanley Cup. Although me being overseas does NOT guarantee a victory. I was in Ireland when the B's lost to the Blues.

[MitchellMcgarr]

Right now I'm pulling for Edmonton in the West and Florida in the East. But wouldn't be shocked if they both get knocked out this round too.

I’m feeling and wanting the same thing. When the Panthers aren’t in the mix, I do pull for the Canadian teams, whomever is left. I’d like to see the 30 year drought of a Canadian team winning the cup come to an end. Playoff hockey is so unpredictable so I could definitely see Edmonton and Florida bounced out this round but I could equally see both making the cup. Unfortunately if that does happen, I gotta put my fandom aside. Anything is possible in playoff hockey. We just saw it in the Boston/Florida series but I think Edmonton would beat Florida pretty handedly. I could definitely see a Canadian team breaking the 30 year curse at Florida’s expense. Lots of hockey left to be played. Nothing comes close to playoff hockey. Best 2 months of sports. :tu

[Black Coral]

Edmonton for Derek!!! Miss you brother

[AdamJoshua]

I hope you're all wrong. How bout them apples? I would support Edmonton for Derek though.

I was definitely said to see Bergeron go. He's one of those rare players that's pretty much irreplaceable.

[Porch Dweller]

What an OT goal by Pasta!!! I don't think they have much of a chance in Round 2, but what a way to win a game 7 in OT!
