    ECQF Game 3: 4/24/24 @ Tarranna

    IIRC Marner is playing through a high ankle sprain so while his effort is laughable, I'm not shocked he couldn't hustle down there.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    Last year they got burned because Ullmark got hurt at the very end of Game 4 and Monty kept playing him anyway. It worsened to the point where he couldn't move in Game 6.

    2024 White Sox: Sheets & Giggles

    Benentendi got the highest FA deal in team history IIRC, and so far has given them 709 PA of 80 OPS+. Woof.

    It could very well be A B B A, because the winner takes it all.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    Ullmark was hurt. That was the main issue, he was definitely hindered.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    I think with 2 days off, it's a better bet to play Swayman. I understand a rotation with the usual every-other-day game schedule, but with the extra rest I'd go back to Swayman.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    I agree with this. Ullmark was excellent in Game 2 but at this point I'd start Swayman again. He's been outstanding.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    Agreed on all points, the Marchand goal was unstoppable, the Frederic goal was terrible. The Bruins have a massive edge in goaltending in this series.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    Keefe going full Berube is exactly the game plan most teams have against the Bruins in the playoffs, because it works. The Bruins absolutely have to fire back in the same way. The high road doesn't work and I hope they understand that by now.

    Milan Lucic arrested after domestic incident - on indefinite leave from Bruins

    Lucic's wife files for divorce. Sorry for the TMZ link, it's the only one I saw. Here's to hoping she and the kids can be safe and secure going forward.

    Peeke didn’t travel to Toronto. I would think Lohrei is in.

    Round 1 rest of the east

    Verhaeghe is now tied for 3rd all time in playoff OT goals scored. He's got 5. Ridiculous. Sakic has 8, Rocket Richard has 6. Verhaeghe, Glenn Anderson, Patrick Kane, and Corey Perry all have 5. BUT! Sakic did it in 172 games. Richard did it in 132 games. Anderson in 225. Perry in 197. Kane...

    Yeah, see that's like your opinion man. And yeah, you were trying to thread police. Take it to my DMs if you want to discuss this further.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    I have read that the building isn't kept cold enough for ideal ice conditions. No idea how true that is. The use of the surface for Celtics games likely plays a part as well. The best surface in the league is in Edmonton IIRC and there are no basketball games played in that arena.
