I hadn’t watched the end of regulation last night to see the brutal icing St Louis took. That’s terrible.

So, Don Cherry dedicated time on Coach’s Corner to say that the Bruins are throwing the game and Carolina’s doing their best to ruin that.

Between periods chatter:

Justin Bourne makes the argument in a piece in The Athletic that fans shouldn’t be so quick to holler “just shoot!l

“With your skill players, you have to trust that they have some sense of when it’s worth trying to make a play that may not work out, as they know that the payoff of a potential goal is well worth trying a play that’ll get intercepted more than it’ll connect. Great offensive players turn the puck over more not just because they have it more, but because they attempt harder, less likely to succeed plays that if they do work out, often end in goals. Seeing those plays (as well as having the skill to convert them) is what makes them — and in turn your team — special.”

Lol. Oh Grapes.

I’m sure Jacobs wouldn’t turn down the Saturday night playoff gate and concessions. But come on.

When Rask is locked in, his body language after a save says “I’m bored — what else you got?” I love it. That gets into guys’ heads.

I don’t watch a ton of hockey anymore, but this is an absurd number of called hand passes, no?
