Binnington is looking as good as Reimer in 2013 through the first 52 minutes. Let's treat him like Reimer for the next 8.

Binnington played out of his mind and Tuukka had an off night...that’s not the whole story of the game but it’s a big part.
Tuukka did not have an off night. He was completely let down by the team in front of him. Can’t win many games when you score zero.

Can’t even say they were outplayed tonight honestly. That’s hockey, shit happens.
You kinda can - cashing opportunities is definitely part of playing well (as is the odd steal by the G of an opportunity that should be cashed).

Whoever said that the Bs might be Dryden'd tonight should be banned forever.

I’d say Binnington isn’t mediocre
I would, most of the saves in the first went into his chest with half the net open.

The last few if they elevate the puck they go in.

He has been a rebounding machine and even if the announcers say he is controlling the rebounds, I have never seen a goal control them into the slot on purpose.

The guy has gotten lucky that the Bruins haven't been able to put back his rebounds.

Bennington is either great or awful and he’s been insanely good tonight. Hell of a day to play the game of your life. Rask...not so much. This probably impacts his legacy unfortunately because he’s been pretty awesome all playoffs and all year.
Anyone who thinks Rask hasn't been great tonight does not know what they are talking about.

He made about 5 great saves between the 2nd and 3rd goals, and you can't put any of the goals on him.

I don’t understand complaints about effort they’ve created a ton just haven’t been able to beat the goalie. I know we have all doubted his quality but you have to tip your cap to that kid tonight he’s been unreal
not many great chances since the 1st period.

Tough to win a series with as many offensive no shows as they've gotten in this series. The terrible passing and all the whiffs tonight are just a shit cherry on a shit sundae.

They choked let’s be honest. The top line had 1 even strength goal the entire series. Bergeron did not score even strength once. Up 2-1 in the series after destroying them & blew it. 2 cup finals in a row they blew. What a joke.
