They just can’t play under physical pressure. All you have to do is forecheck them hard and they can’t handle it.Oh they’re doing it again
McAvoy went for a nice, casual skate through the crease on Pietrangelo’s. That was awful. Grzelcyk doing feckless, try-hard work in the net front area, as well.Move them off the puck, don’t do fly by’s with sticks
He's not fixing this team. Their issues will still be there and they'll be short assets as well.You can Hannefin me now, or you can Hannefin me later.
I’m starting to lean towards Hannefin me now.
I would definitely take another good defenseman assuming they can sign him long term. But they do need more physical players on the bottom 6 and bottom pairing D. They have nobody that can change momentum right now.He's not fixing this team. Their issues will still be there and they'll be short assets as well.
Carlo & Lindholm to me have been the biggest problems. They’re two big guys making a lot of money that are very capable of doing the job and they’re just not.Maybe Hampus is getting a good look at what needs to be done in their own end. He’s been as guilty as anyone, of course.
Made me nostalgic for Danny Paille.Imagine getting a breakaway and taking a fucking shot like that?
Shootouts and breakaways. Not a strong suit lately.Imagine getting a breakaway and taking a fucking shot like that?
I know he is currently out but he’s been “Meh” all year and I think he’s been nursing a nagging foot injury. I think CShea posted in the trade thread that If we get Hannefin ( and I can’t recall the price but perhaps it was Lohrei and Lysell or Merkolov, CShea please correct me) and sign Hannefin long term, would the short term upgrade from Lohrei to Hannefin get us through the season and allow for Hampus to heal his foot and come back for the playoffs? I also don’t know the salary cap issues this would involve, but it sounded intriguing when I saw CShea’s postMaybe Hampus is getting a good look at what needs to be done in their own end.

Yes, that was a Paille special.Made me nostalgic for Danny Paille.
Hit Hill’s stick’s shaft, I think. Luck at one end, this period.Made me nostalgic for Danny Paille.
I mean this is factually incorrect. By almost every defensive metric, Lindholm has been their best defensive defenseman this year. They allow fewer shots, chances and goals against when he is on the ice. Carlo is like 3rd.Carlo & Lindholm to me have been the biggest problems.

When he comes back. I want to see more playing with some balls, and less shitty insurance commercials out of him.
I just want to stop blowing leads. It’s infuriating and I guess I’m not thinking straight.I mean this is factually incorrect.

But I guess just hit people more.
Yes, redirect.I hate having to follow games on my phone. Did he tip that?
Funny thing is, it’s their role players that have kept them afloat while their stars (glares in the direction of DeBrusk and Marchand) have been borderline invisible…or worse.This is kinda sorta what a lot of people expected when the season started...Bruins are good, but not *that* good, because they play quite a few average/mediocre players a lot of minutes and its catching up to them lately.
Just going by the stats, which D’s are getting caved in the most? Is it completely a bottom pairing problem?I mean this is factually incorrect.
