    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    So we're holding series wins as data points for them blowing it. Hand waive off the game 7 wins as "coin flips" buit I guess games 5 and 6 aren't coin flips. By the same logic, the Blues choked game 6 in 2019 but won a coin toss in game 7.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    They've lost 2 series since 2011 that they've had a lead heading into a game 6. 2014 against Montreal and last year. But they are losers and it's all over. It's pre-2004 Red Sox mentality here.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    They had 26 d zone draws last night. They went 12-14. 8 of those came after icings so nothing can be done, got to live with the players who were on the ice. They went 3-5, Zacha being 0-4. Frederic 1-1 (of course the 1 loss ending up in the back of the net), Boqvist 1-0. They went 9-9 when...

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    They have Zacha, Frederic and Boqvist as LH centers. The impact of Beecher on draws, specifically d zone, is close to negligible. We are talking maybe 3 draws over the course of the game, max. He had 12 D zone starts through 4 games, only 8 at even strength. And they can't use him as a...

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    This is just revisionist history. Bergeron was a monster in game 5 last year. 28-7 shot attempt advantage, 14-4 scoring chance advantage, 7-1 high danger chance advantage, 82% xGF% in 14 minutes. He's a first ballot hall of famer and the best player on the team. If the doctors and player say he...

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    The only lineup change last year between game 4 and 5 was he put Bergeron back in. The horror. We killed him last year for being late to adjust. Now he's being skewered for adjusting.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    Yeah, or COVID and respitory issues. I'm not saying he's faking or whatever just the handling has been odd. Kinda like whatever happened to Nylander. Played all 82 regular season games then suddenly out for 3 games, including 2 after he had been skating/practicing.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    This is another weird one. I assume he'll play, especially since their season is on the line. Odd sequence though. I know teams aren't forthcoming with details, but I believe I read that he got sick prior to game 3. Played all of that game, then got 2 days off before being playing in game 4...

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    That makes a little more sense. Grzelyck and Shattenkirk are like-for-like. If Forbort was returning, I think it would be for Wotherspoon.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    Sounds like Forbort is going in for Shattenkirk. Not sure I love that.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    I agree that when Maroon's out there I get nervous as he looks extremely slow. However, his on ice results at 5x5 are actually quite good. Shot attempts 31-28 Boston Shots 14-12 Boston Scoring Chances 14-9 Boston High Danger Chances: 8-1 Boston Expected Goals: 1.48-0.52 Boston Actual Goals...

    What is next for BB?

    Yeah, this is fair. I think if they ditched the Kiper guy and the Boston guy and just had Pat, Bill, Hawk and Darius Butler (I think that's who it was) it would've been better. And whatever the magic thing was. Bill does have good chemistry with McAfee and while I'm not the biggest McAfee fan I...

    What is next for BB?

    Wonder if the WWL gave any consideration to a Bill and Saban desk. Just the 2 of them and a moderator/host. Thought Bill was excellent. Maybe I'm just getting old but the shenanigans eventually drove me to the Gameday broadcast.

    R1/3: Drake Maye QB UNC

    There's 5.5 months before week 1. They don't need to make any QB1 declarations on 4/26. They don't have to start Maye immediately if they don't think he's ready but there's also nothing stopping them from starting him if he outperforms Jacoby in camp.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    They typically just keep quiet and say it's out of their control or they just have to kill the penalty. Monty is similar to Cassidy in that he does the smirk on the bench thing (cue @The Napkin) with calls he doesn't like. Not as much as Butch did, Monty seems to yell a bit more but mostly falls...
