There's A Game Today 10/30

[TSC]

Game time is 7:30PM tonight. I'll be at wedding in Old Sturbridge Village tonight, so I'm missing this one. But I'm hitting Treehouse Brewing before hand, so a win for me.

And hopefully a win for the Bruins.

 

[cshea]

It's at 7:30, which sucks.

Kevan Miller is good to go. Kemppainen is a GTD. For the Panthers, Jagr is doubtful.

Not on a Friday night, to be honest. Just the right time to settle in on the couch after a long week of work.

Perfect amount of time to make/get and eat dinner, and enjoy some recreational intoxicants(of your choice) before the game starts.

Yes indeed. Including a stop at Biddy Earlys on my way home from work. 
 
*fist bump to PSK*

[kenneycb]

I miss Biddy's. Used to be across the street from my office so perfect spot for that post work beer. One of the few actual dives to still exist in Boston.

 

[cshea]

Shithead back, Kemppainen out. 

 

[LogansDad]

LOL, Brick's cousin plays for this team.  That will be fun to listen to all night.

 

[cshea]

Rask never makes big saves.

Traid Tuka

 

[cshea]

MARCHAND

 

[LogansDad]

WOW.... AWFUL call

 

[cshea]

Rask has been amazing. 
 
This Florida team is going to be a pain in the ass. Finally getting something out of all those high draft picks.

 

[TFP]

Best period of the season for Tuukka.

Jack got a little creepy with the Brickley family tree for a bit.

 

[cshea]

MARCHAND

 

[The Napkin]

On a scale of 1-50 how much trash talking do you think Marchand's done tonight? 137?

 

[cshea]

CHARA
 
The power play is really unbelievable. 

 

[The Napkin]

Holy shit if he had gotten the Hattie there he may have needed a voice box transplant.

Holy shit the pp. I don't even.

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

Zeeee!!!

 

[The Napkin]

Can someone explain what he's talking about when he says having a pp1 and pp2 is different than having 2 pp units?

 

[cshea]

Can someone explain what he's talking about when he says having a pp1 and pp2 is different than having 2 pp units?

Yeah, that was confusing. My only guess is he's saying they've loaded up the talent on the top unit instead of trying to spread it out. 

 

[cshea]

Knew this was coming after Gallant was whining about god knows what. 

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

Yeah, I think Jack got turned around when he was explaining that.

... And balls.

 

[cshea]

Welp. 

 

[Terras]

Still the worst penalty in sports. It's gonna kill the Panthers when the Bruins kill it off though.

 

[cshea]

I'd probably use a TO here. 

 

[TFP]

Yeah, that was confusing. My only guess is he's saying they've loaded up the talent on the top unit instead of trying to spread it out. 

It's that and committing to the time to the first PP. It's no longer even time, but rather 1:30 on the first unit and maybe 30 seconds on the second unit. It helps when the first unit dominates all the time and just hangs out in the offensive zone, though.

 

[The Napkin]

Trade Tuukka!

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Unreal save by Rask - Chara asleep at the end of a 2 minute shift

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

Reilly Smith.

Fuck that guy.

 

[The Napkin]

Oh come the fuck on

 

[cshea]

You know, I would've challenged that. Sell job by Bobby. 

 

[Terras]

Poor from both McQuaid and Marchand there. Get the puck out of your own zone.

 

[cshea]

Good night for some prospects. Vatrano has 2 goals (up to 10 goals in 8 games), Senyshyn has 2 goals, Heinen 2 goals and an assist at BC. 

 

[cshea]

Whoa, Connolly. 

 

[Jordu]

Looking more and more like a big year for Connolly.

 

[LogansDad]

I wish jack would do a better job of NOT telling us when Bergeron has to go down the tunnel.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Come on McQuaid

 

[burstnbloom]

Not enjoying this passive posture.

 

[LogansDad]

Best rule in sports!

 

[McDrew]

NESN showing both Empty Net/PP time at the same time is a nice improvement over last year. 

 

[Jordu]

Rask with mighty 1st and 3rd periods.

 

[LogansDad]

That was bad, Brad.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

What a brutal major call. 2 minutes at very best, and even that would be harsh.

 

[cshea]

That's only a minor.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

What a kill, and a huge effort from Rask. Major 2 points with another game tomorrow night.

 

[cshea]

Good win, Florida is a no layup anymore. Turns out this Rask guy is pretty good.

 

[McDrew]

I may have reacted too harshly to the start of the season.  Tuukka was legit tonight, and the B's have the 2nd most goals/game in the NHL.  Let's keep improving on this.
