Keeping the spirit of Eliot Friedman alive.

I'm not sure I want to pass Toronto (as funny as that would be). Drawing the Lightning then Panthers seems tougher than Hurricanes then Beatable Team.

I don't know. I don't think Carolina is a great draw. They've beaten us 3 times this year by a combined 16-1. I know we've had success against them in the playoffs recently but they scare me.

I don't think there's an obvious good draw here, so get as high as you can.

Sounds like Ullmark will be in net but no other lineup changes. Tonight is Foligno's 1,000th game.

Marchand - Bergeron - DeBrusk
Hall - Haula - Pastrnak
Frederic - Coyle - Smith
Foligno - Nosek - Lazar

Reilly - McAvoy
Grzelyck - Carlo
Forbort - Clifton

Ullmark

This is where I'm at. I think Carolina is a horrendous draw, as their defense is likely going to frustrate the hell out of this Bruins team. Along those lines, even though the Rags are punching way above their weight, watching the black-and-gold's "finishing ability" (or lack thereof) against Shesterkin will probably make me go gray. I think they're more likely to slow down the Panthers' otherworldly offense*, and they've played very well the past couple times they faced the Lightning.

I think the truth of it is that there's no clear-cut "easy path" to the ECF this year.

*What would be the over/under of Bruins' goals allowed while Forbort is on the ice for this one?

That penalty saved a sure goal probably... will have to wait for the return from commercial to see though...

Chicago crowd is so dead because of how much the Bruins are carrying the play... but nothing to show for it..

Yep, just bracing myself for the inevitable squeaker from Ullmark at this point en route to a 50 save shutout for Fleury
