12/7 - Bs @ Washington
- Thread starter TFP
- Start date
I'm still not sure what to think of this team. What we all thought would be the Achilles heel has been their relatively strength, their offense outside of Pastrnak and Marchand has been abysmal, Tuukka has been other worldly..they probably haven't played as good as their record indicates, but they're probably a better team than they've played to date, if that makes sense.
Either way, it's been an exciting year. The future of the team seems to be bright, if Sweeney and Neely stay out of their own way.

Dear Clode,
I get to one game a year. Please start Tuukka. Go B's!
Sincerely,

P.S.: You're fired!

Yeah, it's a weird season. The offense could improve and they could be better than their record, but the defense and goaltending could regress and bring them back to earth; or all the bad things could happen and they could slump out of the playoffs again. Who the fuck knows?

Same lineup as Monday. Claude bumped Spooner up to the 2nd line in the 3rd period on Monday, but it appears to be status quo to start.
8:00 start, apparently this constitutes a rivalry. B's have lost 6 straight to Washington, and go seasons without scoring on Holtby. B's struggling to score this year. Reverse lock?

In the barn for this one as usual. First time I have had any confidence going into a Caps/Bruins game. Most likely blind ignorance. Hoping for a bowl of Pasta goals and Ovechkin's head bleeding.
K. Miller's first real weak play of the year with that weak chip back up the boards. Gotta go deep there and give your team a chance to get back defensively
Anton probably has tomorrow night's game and the only reason Tuukka's still in there.
Yeah...to handle a puck on edge with a dude bearing down on you (to say nothing of his effort to fight through getting tangled with the first D) is impressive as hell. Anyone who's played knows how hard that was.
