    Round 2 Bruins-Panthers

    My guess is that Vancouver and others gave the league a whole bunch of shit for years about the Aaron Rome suspension (even today you can find Canucks fans on Reddit screaming about how unjust the suspension was) and ever since the league has gone out of its way to fuck the Bruins in order to...

    Round 2 Bruins-Panthers

    Also more and more people are commenting on how awful McAvoy has been. He's been so bad that I almost hope he is battling a physical issue, because otherwise he's battling a mental one and that's not a great sign. His decision-making has been terrible. Bobrovsky has an .811 save % in this...

    Round 2 Bruins-Panthers

    You can’t tell me, after no discipline for Bennett, that the league doesn’t have it out for the Bruins. This shit has been going on for years.

    Round 2 Bruins-Panthers

    Lauko getting held and then pushed into Bobrovsky and then getting the penalty called on him was an absolute travesty, and just about sums up the way the Bruins get officiated in the postseason.

    Chris Sale (plus $17mil) traded to Atlanta for Vaughn Grissom

    It's not a bad deal at all, they needed his roster spot and he was always injured. The uncertainly of his status every day was a problem and they solved it.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    Nylander talked about the migraines after Game 7, they were so bad at one point that he couldn't see. Woll got hurt on the goal at 19:59 of the 3rd in Game 6. So never stop trying to score!

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    He also said horrible things about Roy Halladay when he died. I understand that saying horrible things on the radio is par for the course because ratings uber alles, but it was still reprehensible.

    This is such great info. Explains very well why Toronto has chronically underachieved for years. I really hope Donny gets you on retainer this summer.

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    Naturally Felger is playing dumb: View: https://twitter.com/GlobeChadFinn/status/1788231189620252727 He (Felger) is absolutely using Monty's previous issues with alcohol to make jokes. What an awful human being he is.

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    Joking about Monty "having to go back to rehab because he was drinking the panic juice" is funny? Given Monty's struggles with alcohol and how forthcoming he's been about it, no, it is not. EDIT: Clip here: View: https://twitter.com/davecullinane/status/1787971270841188513

    Round 2 Bruins-Panthers

    I have to note that Monty called his time out with 14:12 left in the 3rd after sustained pressure by Florida in the Bruins' zone, and I thought that was a very, very smart move. He got them regrouped and it was apparently less about giving the team a breather and more about emphasizing to them...

    Eliot Wolf will be in charge of the personnel department

    Supposedly they have already complied with the rule. View: https://twitter.com/ProFootballTalk/status/1787684796266656010

    Round 2 Bruins-Panthers

    Ideally they would work on the icings because they have been getting beaten on draws more often than not. I think it's not about working on not icing the puck, but rather working on their defense zone breakouts. The defensemen have been taking a little bit of extra time to settle the pucks and...

    Round 2 Bruins-Panthers

    I can't remember where I read it, but basically Bob's stance in goal means he's extremely adept at moving side to side better than most goalies but is very vulnerable to the type of goals the Bruins scored last night.

    Round 2 Bruins-Panthers

    I'm fine with no one picking the Bruins. This is the first series in a while they aren't expected to win. Go out and play loose and free and see what happens.
