Beat Utah like a Sacco potatos

[FL4WL3SS]

I haven't started a game thread in probably 10 years. I had a run of greatness when this forum was created and then have been bad luck ever since. New coach, fuck it why not?

I fully expect more of the same from the team and from my thread performance however.

Go B's.

 

[ColdSoxPack]

This is a must win. Utah sucks but so do we. Go B's!

 

[McDrew]

This team's motto: I'm here. Get used to it.

 

[joe dokes]

At least the Bruins have a name. "Hey you, hockey club, stop sucking" lacks some bite.

Geekie - Zacha - Pastrnak
Marchand - Lindholm - Brazeau
Merkulov - Coyle - Frederic
Beecher - Kastelic - Koepke

Lohrei - McAvoy
Wotherspoon - Carlo
Zadorov - Peeke

Swayman

Hey let’s try winning, it could be fun.

Swayman

If it was the NBA, Pastrnak would get doubled all game and they'd leave Geekie wide open.

 

[FL4WL3SS]

I hope nobody has any illusions this team will look any different

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Shut up, they're gonna skate their tits off the rest of the way, and Korpi will be 1A headed into the playoffs as a wild card

 

[catomatic]

Online chatter suggesting they filled the coaching vacancy with some guy name of Vanzetti. Seems he and Joe go back a ways.

So you're saying it's going to be anarchy? That tracks.

Korpisalo in net

You get those lines from beat writers right? Usually they are spot on, could something be up with Sway or they just missed it?

 

[Dewey's 'stache]

Bruins Players, It’s time to wake up!

Beat these no name freaks and get back on track.

 

[Dewey's 'stache]

Double post

 

[Curt S Loew]

Thanks for aiming for the chest. Appreciate it.

 

[Cotillion]

How are they looking?

 

[barclay]

A bit nervous about this game. Its one you absolutely should win if Monty was the problem -- at home, against a team under .500 and has lost their last two. If they play flat or lose by a few goals then I don't know. Won't be good.

 

[Dewey's 'stache]

How are they looking?

Too soon to tell, but with 4:20 gone already, still no SOG

 

[Cotillion]

How is that not an instigator for that?

 

[Diamond Don Aase]

How is that not an instigator for that?

Jumps off the bench to grab Kastelic (who was at the end of his shift) from behind. Dick move and absolutely an instigator penalty.

It's good to hear Sacco say the PP needs to be less predictable, and while they didn't get one on that PP it looked better getting shots on from different places

 

[bsl394]

They *look* better. Skating with more urgency.

 

[Cotillion]

Good position save by korpisalo there

 

[The Mort Report]

that last leg save was sneaky good, your body usually lifts that trailing leg pushing off

 

[The Napkin]

It's good to hear Sacco say the PP needs to be less predictable, and while they didn't get one on that PP it looked better getting shots on from different places

On the other hand, wasn't be in charge of the pp to begin with?

It's chilly, rainy, windy, and generally blah. There was a strong pull to just say fuck it and curl up under a blanket with a book. Not going to take much to switch to that plan methinks

 

[Cotillion]

Damnit. If Lindholm hadn’t moved Marchand was passing to his spot instead of shooting.

 

[Cotillion]

Everything but scored. Damnit.

Yeah, but I think it was the Bruins Rinkside pod discussing this, Monty tells him how he wants the PP to run, Sacco would obviously have input but it's his job to implement Monty's vision, and looking for a perfect shot is how Monty wanted it. I want to believe Sacco is smart enough to realize that wasn't working and slowly implements something better

 

[barclay]

Third time HAS to be the charm

 

[TSC]

Despite not scoring, the power play LOOKS much faster. A lot more movement, and seemingly more decisive decisions to shoot and hope for a bounce/rebound.

 

[The Mort Report]

One period blah blah but 15 shots on net in the period is awesome to see, it's so much more fun to watch

 

[Murby]

Aight. Can we smash two good periods together where they look engaged?

 

[barclay]

Yes it is. What I am looking for in the 2nd is how the B's come out. If they are flat or Utah scores on a fluke or Korpy miscue then lets watch and see how the B's respond. There have been a few games this year where they came out strong, got behind and then punted. Have to hope that does not continue.

 

[Curt S Loew]

My picture is more like NESN Y2K at times instead of NESN 4K this evening.

 

[barclay]

I've never heard of the 4th time being the charm but I willing to believe it

 

[The Mort Report]

damn that was a great save

 

[bsl394]

How did that not go in…

 

[TSC]

This is the best Lohrei has ever looked.

 

[IdiotKicker]

I don’t think it was intentional at all, but fuck Brazeau took a hell of an elbow to the head there.

 

[pk1627]

Finally

 

[Curt S Loew]

It's a miracle!

 

[TSC]

There we go.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

FUCK YEAH!

 

[IdiotKicker]

RUN IT UP SACCO

LEAVE NO DOUBT

 

[The Mort Report]

Lindholm!

@pk1627 you are soooo far ahead ha

 

[TSC]

Amazing what happens when you throw it to the front of the net with traffic.

 

[TSC]

WELL WELL NOW.

THIS GAME IS GETTING ENTERTAINING.

 

[The Mort Report]

Kastelic is fucking awesome

 

[Scoops Bolling]

Goddamn, Kastelic!

 

[barclay]

Its unorthodox, but looks like the 5th time is the charm
