Too much speed. Too much experience. Too Much Depth. Too much Rask!!!!
Go Bruins!!!!

Just to call Binnington a rookie lol

I'm gonna puke

I'm scared!

Remember if a Blues player gets hurt don't cheer. We need to maintain moral superiority over Toronto.

So damn nervous.
And excited.

Predicting TDL acquisitions MoJo and Coyle play an important role tonight.

Early call on that icing

McAvoy reciting the guys he has to take out Game of Thrones style.

The older I get the harder it gets

Bruins have never lost a series with Carlo playing.
Let's keep it that way.
Do it.

I believe they're light up bracelet that are handed out. I've seen them at several hockey and basketball games during the playoffs

Don't mess around. Go straight at them. Go B's!!!!!

They really cannot afford too many icings tonight

My blood pressure is jacked and my head is starting to pound.

"GIVE THEM NOTHING BUT TAKE FROM THEM, EVERYTHING!!!"

Page number: 6

Pasta fanned pretty bad there

Pastrnak is ass so far

Over 9000.

Ice looks terrible

VOMIT

Ooohh so close

DAMN SO CLOSE

Man Mojo

Don't mind me I'm just having a nervous breakdown watching this

Boston in 7

**** **** **** **** ****

This is more stressful than I expected.

Vets need to settle young guys nerves

Keep up the pressure

This ice is so bad, the puck is bouncing everywhere

another giveaway pasta
come on your pissing me off

Page number: 7

CHECK YOUR HEART RATES, FOLKS!

Sickening

We're all over them so far

Again, hold me

I was thinking that too

Getting chances. Keep up the pressure

Yeah, Binnington looks fine to me. Gonna have to earn this.

Good start

OMG So close I could cry!

Rough start for Pasta

We're winning faceoffs!

Blues are leaving the slot wide open....
Why? no clue? but we must capitalize

Good shifts, Binnington will crack just be relentless on him.

Grizz is skating well

Yeah that could help or hurt you....lets hope it helps.

Looking damn good

Unlucky. This guy is a sieve. Just keep shooting.

the good news Bergy and marchand came to play. the bad news pasta is still in la la land.

Binnington looks shaky. Not controlling the rebounds.

Great start, toss everything at this kid

The Blues looked better in the first 3 minutes, we looked better the last 3 minutes.
Rask looks sharper than Binnington though, and that's a difference maker.

Bruins coming on in the last few shifts. Some near misses with pucks bouncing over sticks.

We need a clear cut shot no doubt. Puck is bouncing like a tennis ball

Farking puck bouncing everywhere.Pasta sloppy.Man up.

Page number: 8

Keep shooting
Rebounds for everyone

Cmon boys get one!
Put em on their heels!

Keep on them KEEP ON THEM
They cannot forcheck if they're too busy defending

It's ok, Boston buzzing - getting in the zone and getting chances. 1st line buzzing too. All good. Go Bruins!!!!

Looking good so far.

Ok Score Bruins now!

Everyone rolling now! Get going Pasta

KEEP ATTACKING

Thank God! Nom nom nom....buuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrppppp.. nom nom nom

I'm at Hooters, and have about jumped off my seat 3 or 4 times already. Afraid of the sounds I might make when the Bs score.

Very slow start thus far. Have to try and bury them.

Keep this up and pot one pls

and because of this they should shoot from every angle and go for rebounds.
everything on net

Bad opening minute but they turned it around. Keep. ****ing. Going!

I can't stay off here until intermission. I'm too ****ing nervous. My heart is pounding.

True. But does he ever? =D

We'll get one before the next commercial!

could pasta go 10 ****ing seconds without a turnover

how is mcavoy this good already...same with carlo

Need to bury one

Now, if they can be better in the final 54 minutes, I'll be happy.

When Pasta plays drunk he infuriates you for 3 periods but somehow will come out with a goal and an assist at the end of it. Just have to hope his drunken reflexes don't cost us.

Pasta needs to be better

Who was the banner captain? German TV didnt show

We gotta score

Page number: 9

Only thing that matters is scoring more then them.

He's good on the initial save, but he gives up juicy rebounds

I forgot to breathe there for like a minute. The commercial break might have saved my life just now.

My heart is racing

SCORE FIRST PLEASE.

Liam Fitzgerald.

NBC blowing Binnington like usual

Parayko had been one of the best skaters in the series. This is a huge chance, gotta captialize.

DO IT NOW!!!

Come on boys! Powerplay

Pasta looks like me at the annual family reunion whiffle ball home run tournament

The only powerplays we can expect.
Wow!

Man Pasta

Learned from the best!!

Move the puck

Everyone's favorite penalty.

One of their top defensemen

Krug's gotta get the puck through. 3 already.

****

Page number: 11

UGH SO CLOSE

JESUS

F off Binnington U FLUKY FARKER

Thank you

That's a good save.

Binnington is gonna like like Roy tonight

bennington just barley got that

Marchy had so much open net, shot it dead center.

Up stairs Brad

Shot it right into him ****

Marchy with a good chance

I'm losing my ****

MARCHAND HAD THE ENTIRE NET!!!! WHY DID HE SHOOT INTO HIM!!!!

Blues have been getting away with way too many men on ice missed calls

Marchy come on

It didn't seem like that good a shot honeslty
Binny was just in the right place at the right time

Shot it right back into him
AMAZING!

Ball Washing Binnington, Marchand shot it at the center of the net

Right to the logo. Darn

Pasta is officially DRUNK

****

oh no

Damnit so close

****KKKKKKK

How is it not 4-0?

Page number: 12

Sooo close.

Old Krejci scores there.

Are Ufreaking kidding me?

Wow that chance by Bergy looked exactly like the first goal in game 7 2011

I like this pressure. Keep attacking.
Keep it up!

***"

I am not alright lol

Not good

Is this real life

Getting lucky. He's been caught moving twice

God damnit Marchand

Marchand had the whole net to shoot at. Binnington standing on his head. ****.

Wow
Krejci got moves, EH?

Omg score already

Shades of Thomas

**** this guy

Put Krech in Pasta's spot. His wrist is ****ed

How many chances do we need

Go high on this FLOPPER

Marchand wont get a better chance then he had there. ****

There are openings. We're putting right into his pads/chest.

Kruuuuuuuugg!!! The man on that PP. He WANTS it.

Dammit DK

Stop shooting on Binnington. The holes are everywhere.
Keep this up.

Can they bury some chances please ? Should be at least 2-0

Page number: 13

It's going to be really bad if they don't get one this period

don't let up keep the pressure on from the power play.

No fear of suspension, Schenn going to the kill shot.

Jesus Christ.

Bruins might regret not scoring here.
That's on the Bruins just missing not goaltending.

Schenn, launch much ?

GOT TO BURY YOUR CHANCES IN GAMES LIKE THIS.

man why didn't we score on the power play

Blues owned the first 5. Bruins looking good since.

Good PP. Shame they didn't score. Who knows how many more PP opportunities are going to come in a game 7

I am dying.

Now that was a charge.

Schenn just sprinted across the rink.

Schenn didn't jump on his miss hit on McAvoy...

WOW. great pressure keep it up!

Is it only a charge if he makes contact? Dirty ****er

Screw of Binnington

Up near the head. Sickening.

Honestly, Binnington is lucky more than he is good so far. Everything is being shot right into him.

I'm worried he's having one of these nights

I want to cry

Regardless keep up this pressure. Get them tired

Look at how high Schenn jumped! Unreal.

Bruins look very good.

Marchand shot it into him though. He had then entire short side and put the puck dead center.

Page number: 14

Ughhhhh this is stressful. Needed to score there

How is that not a charge

Marchand has all the room he just shot it at him. Damn

krech had him beat, just knicked his pad

Keep generating chances - they'll start going in

I'm losing my damn mind.

Ugh. Need the first one. After this surge, Blues getting the first could be deflating.

Marchand had the entire net on his chance and shot it dead center into Binnington's chest.
Krejci had the whole five-hole and still managed to shoot into the stick.
Both were good stops and are going to give St. Louis a lot of confidence. But damn, we easily could be winning this already.

need to build off of that and keep on the pressure. binnington is fighting the puck and had some saves that were more luck than anything there.

Marchand had entire blocker side but shot it to middle and he caught it under arm coming across.

The Bruins putting it right into him. Bad luck.

Same.

Went super high on Chara earlier. I wanted the Bruins to trade for him earlier this year. I don't want the Bruins anywhere near him anymore.

I've been a huge Krug critic but he's been awesome all playoffs.

Blues realize the key to success is 5 Bruins D. As Brayden leaps into a check

If they can keep leaning on them like this the blues are gonna get tired
Don't discount what that can do for the Bruins

Just score please!

My heart is pounding...

Ahhhhhh. Should have scored on a few of those

They will

Never like it when they dominate and don't score. Always comes back.

eh. If a Bruin made that hit, we'd send him to the HOF

I'm praying we dont regret not scoring on any of those chances

Not worried we didnt score...we had pressure. Better then doing nothing

get one buy benny and we are good from there.

Page number: 15

What a play from Krug to Krejci. Sick

Yup. Terrible.

I'm worried...we've had our chances and did not capitalize...not good

Good start and good PP. Play like that and it will come.

Roof it 63

All the friggin time, that guy

saved by the jersey, that puke

I don't have a good feeling about this. Just don't quite like how it's gone so far. Binnington looks on, PP didn't convert and St. Louis is a great road team.

The Ortiz Bruins jersey ....why?

Bad part about Paraykos DOG penalty is now the refs will look to even the PPs up with anything the Bs do.

Rangers fan I come in peace. The only one I know rooting for the Bs but I cant root against Bergereon and Chara.
Good luck

Game 5 lesson.BURY YOUR CHANCES

Settle down

Binnington with the loose jersey save.

Binnington making great stops but also giving up lots of rebounds. Bruins just need to keep this going for 60 and they'll win this

Don't listen to NBC.
Their goalie has been decent but we could easily have 2.

Get a goal on Binnington and he'll fold...Can't let him get confident

OMG

lift the puck!!!

He made 1 good save, the rest were routine.

Mojo will score

Oh Mojo, gotta get one of these chances.

This can't be happening

get puck up..he on knees steady

Binnington scaring me

Page number: 16

Come the frigg on! Gotta make one count

This is bad. They can't score of this guy. Making him look good.

Game of his life. Lmao

LIFT IT JOJO

Ohhh now tva sport is in love with binnington .......

Let's gooooooo

You can feel a garbage goal for the Blues coming.

Last thing you want in a game 7 is for the opponents goalie to be the best player in the ice. Need to get one by him before the end of the first

This is looking real bad scoring wise right now.

we are dominating and not scoring .... that makes me very nervous

Great play by Mojo.

Keep dominating! Attack! Attack! Attack!

Should have had one of these already

Reminding me of game 5

We'll get one of these soon. Keep it up

THESE MISSED CHANCES WILL MURDER YAZ

So much skill in the o zone, but he just cannot score right now.

It's gonna take a great pass on him for a goal

He shot it right into his chest. Stop acting like it was an amazing stop.

W t f you gotta do to score for f s.

I am ready to pace in the bar

Mojo should have had it
But as long as they're in their own end, this is not a bad thing. I'll take the Bruins camped in teh Blues end all day

Disposable cash.

If Mojo left it on the ice, its in. I am not worried.

Again, shot it right into his body.
NBC is totally overreacting.

Page number: 17

Tuukka needs to match this when the time comes.

pasta with another giveaway behind the net. wtf

Five hole was open if he kept it down - puck on edge

Moore's skating is a thing of beauty.

Blues defense so sloppy, saved by the goalie so far

Binnington just throwing his body around hoping the puck hits him.
Been lucky so far

They need to sell a story.
Bruins look terrific.

Once we get the first, the flood gates will open trust me

Blues pp would be a damm nightmare right now.

They can't let Binnington give them momentum.

Come on dammit the longer this goes on the worse it gets

Maroon the coward

Nice hit Nordstrom!!!!

Kuraly is such a battler
We're lucky to have him

Blues have a defenseman injured early in the game?
How the turntables...

Jeeze late icing

Gotta get in his face

Blues without a scoring chance through 15 minutes. I fear that means a flukey goal.

Totally outplaying them. Just need to pot one.

Nordstrom!!!!!

Gunnerson got rocked!

Pathetic

Beautiful hit nordy

That nordstrom hit was KARMA for gryz

Gunnarson tried to break his fall with his face.

Page number: 18

20 rocked him

What a hit! Nordstrom!

So pumped for Charles Barkley between periods.

I can't believe we're not up 3-0 right now.

Emphasis on "need."

Sweet hit by the sweed

Lots of icings, lots of Bruins possession.
Keep them on their heels.

Can someone lay Perron out too?

Impossible for Rask to get into any kind of rhythm here.

Blues really trying to draw those boards.

Better than Edward O

This isn't he first game they've dominated but failed to score early. The goals will come.

I'm so ****ing scared

Binnington has the horseshoe tonight

Shoot.

Oof.

LOL who didn;t see that coming?

**** ****ING UCK **** **** UZDVC

Nooooooo

Yup

Lol hockey

There's the weak goal you KNEW was coming after the Bruins had about 15 great chances.

Yup.

There it is. Haha

Crap

Page number: 19

What luck

****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

C'mon boys. Cant have that

And t here it is

****'s sake

Pmo

Jesus.

Of course ...

dominate and this...

Of course

Damn

Of course FML

Oh no

after all that and they get a deflection goal AGAIN

Yup the one ****ing shot they get

Saw that coming mile away when Binnington became jesus...

So ****ing predictable

Yup

Aaaaaaaaand that's what happens when you don't cash in

**** this ****

**** Non-call on board = goal. lucky ******* blues. Go Bruins!!!!

How annoying are those goals? Bruins can still win though

cant stop that tip. of course ROR

un****ing believable. Carlo has to tie up RoR there

You have got to be ****ing kidding me

Page number: 20

Cannot let them get possession behind the net with the ROR line on the ice. How do we not know this by now?

Nice one Rask ..real nice

FUUUUUUUCK. So unlucky.

Well now the Bruins are gonna have to dig deeper than ever

This has the makings to be that type of game. Bruins have all the chances but cant get a single shot in

Time to get to work.
Tie it up

So unfair

**** **** ****

You just ....ng knew it.
Damm you.

WTF

You have to score on these chances.
****

**** off

Second ****ing shot

It's called Bruins

Lol great. Such a lucky team

That's how it goes when you don't score. Knew it!

Basically numb/indifferent

You could jsut feel it when we dominated the entire period and did everything but score that they'd get one ****ing lucky shot and score

Nice boarding.
Whatever.
Bruins dominant.

I hate this game

Bruins need to take the puck luck back. They have everything else.
Let's go

Wayyyyyy too similar to game 5

Totally and completely outplayed them for a whole period to give up an s goal

Can't get discouraged. Need to keep up the pressure.

Rask reverting back to regular season Rask and Binnington reverting back to God

Page number: 21

Experience bruins hockey

Bad bad Goal

B's playing a bit too loosey goosy last few shifts. Gotta get there aggressive play back.

Guys need to finish.
That was deflected, but I think Rask should've had that.

That's not Rask. Give me a break.

Yip it didn't look good

Of course they get the fluke bounce. Thought Rask maybe should have had that

I am not happy.

**** **** ****

Don't let this take away the energy get it right back

Raise the ****en puck on this sack of ****

**** off ref

I'm angry and want to cry

Oh boy here we go. This team better wake up.

Mojo gets elbowed to the face

this is exactly what my prediction was if the Bruins lose fml

100% they are panicking

Refs telling our player to get off the ice??? Seriously?

I'm in pain.

Binnington has done hardly anything.

See that coming a mile away

Cool. Why is the stick not on the ice Tuukka? Bad bad bad

Our finishing blows ass tonight.
Could cost us the Cup.

They better score soon.

It's insane....
Domination by us and they get one good bounce and now they are going to go into a 1990s trap.

Page number: 22

I know it was deflected but i really wish tuukka got that

Don't wanna be negative but we won't win, all over them then a weak goal. Sad sad sad

Johansson elbowed in the face. Ref: "GET UP!"

Well that really sucks! Seen that story so many times, chance after chance for us and we can't capitalize then the other team comes down and scores.

Just so ****ing typical

Rask has to have that. Its right along the ice

Ref stands there and smiles.

So u can punch Mojo and nothing happens refs?

They wanna start taking liberties.

So lets give it back to them. We've owned this period. Just gotta score here.

Anyone think that's on Rask is wrong.
Bruins the better team here.

Um, what ?

Typical. Should be up 3-0 and trail by 1 after their first scoring chance.

Dammit. Sit the 4th line they've been struggling for a few games

Boston needs to start hitting them - otherwise they're just going to get worse

That's why you have to score on one of your ten glorious chances.

What are you talking about? He's been amazing

It's never Rask ..every deflection
Seems to go in on him
Anyhow Binnington has the horseshoe. Tonight
Screw you dirty bastrd blues

Win
Win win win win win
Win
Win win win win

Binnington is ****ing dialed in.

WAY too much space for their defensemen in the offensive zone.

Team is tight. You can tell on every shot.

Kinda the same

Right on - he had it until the puck got tipped

Double deflection on that one; Accairi's glove then O'Reilly's stick.

More of the scoring chances are the Bruins not finishing the execution. Don't listen to NBC.

Page number: 23

Troll much?

Still plenty of hockey.
Enjoy the game fellas cause we winnin'!!!

come on boys get it back before the priod ends.

Start hitting binnington

Need this tied by the end of the 1st

Sukka strikes again.

It was deflected

Here come the cheap shots now that these gutless pukes have an undeserved lead

It feels like a steep hill going up. Will they score tonight

Typical Bruins period: 100000 SOG and no goal
Opponents: 2 SOG and 1 goal

We will tie it up in 1st.

Games not over yet guys
Don't get negative yet

Binington has been good but most Bruins chances have been shot center of the net, not low, not high, not corners, sides, anything. Just center.

I'm so sick.

Of course the Bruins making an AHL goalie look like God!

Someone talk me off the ledge

Keep pressing

You lose 3 on home ice u deserve to watch them take Cup.TIME TO MAN UP

First 15 minutes of that period are the stuff of nightmares when you don't score a goal.
I feel numb right now

A lot of hockey left. Not worried tbh

One note, the 4th line has gotten stuck out there against O'Reilly a few times, and that's just a recipe for disaster.

4th line has been bad defensively but they keep getting defensive starts. Running around trying to hit (could have had the puck if two of them did hit one blue) instead of play hockey. Cost them a goal.

They had better pull their ****ing asses out of their ****ing heads pronto or this is over.

it was a double deflection

Cmon man really? We just dominated an entire period and they get one fluke goal

Page number: 24

They better not lose 1-0

Only a matter of time
Only a matter of time
Only a matter of time
Only a matter of time

Still lots of hockey left.
If the game plays out the way the first did, it's going to take the goaltending performance of a lifetime for Binnington to win this game.

Are you ****ing dumb?
Rask has had the 2nd best playoffs in NHL history...

Some people blame the goalie on any goal regardless of circumstance.

Have to score either in this period or early in 2.

**** off you piece of ****

Their Conn Smythe winner scoring.

Sick of O'Reilly's stupid face

blues are so good with a lead this is exactly worst scenario

The turnover on that goal was created by a board but obviously this garbage league isn't going to call penalties like that in a game 7

Shake it off. Bruins were playing well, they will get it back.

I'm coming with...

Once again crap unsong hero O'Reilly while march mia berg
Krejci and pastr nothing so far

I hate this game.

Agree. But I've seen goalies stop deflected shots

You have to put the damn puck in the net!!!

Here comes the 1-4-1.

He didn't see **** there. Puck just finds him.

Bruins have fanned on at least 6 or 7 plays CALM DOWN

95% of our shots are into his pads or his chest.

If bruins lose all of this to this point means nothing

Would be nice if the puck bounced our way once

Come the **** on

Damn - can't stand dominating a game and losing

Page number: 25

Get one before the end of the period

how can this team lose 3 games at home in one series going to be sick

Outside of Marchand not aiming his PP shot, he's been incredible

****

They need to be a little more patient around the net. The plays are there.

If they have a scoreless second it's gonna be a long night.

Bruins still looking fine. Not backing down.

You gotta believe!

Chance after chance, why can't we get one lucky goal too?

There's 40 minutes left dood

Gotta start burying these gosh...

Put bouncers on Binnington dammit

Wtv ..man idiot ..it's the 7th
Game who cares about ur stats
I want cup
Not some playoff series no one ever remembers

This is a joke

Kill me

Ohhhh come on grrrrrr

Wow, what a ****ing disaster of a period

You cannot let that happen

That one hurts.

Dammit!!!!

a line change with 13 seconds to go for the D. WHAT THE ****

omg. I hate this game

Welp. Just not in the cards.

youve gotta be kidding me

Noooooooooo

Page number: 26

Good ****ing job Bruins. Really.

What in the actual ****?

It's over. Great stuff.

Well unreal.

Rask

Rask.

CHOKING CUP AWAY

Back breaker.

Lmao

Good night

****

What is dead may never die

Cooked.
They're not scoring on Binnington

FOR **** SAKES!!!!!

Christ

Binnington stole this period.
Easily could have laid down and died after game 6 and he has been the balls.

CHOOOOKE.
Terrible D and Tuukka is getting ****ing toasted.

This is typical Rask, I'm sorry

I'm donr

That's a backbreaker.
Complete domination. This is going to be VERY difficult to come back from.

Where's my remote?

Total domination but down 2-0.
Worst luck period ever at the worst time.

And our goalie can't make a save

****.
Time for bed.

Ouch

Page number: 27

Faaahk what a bs period

RUN BINNINGTON RUN HIM NOW

Embarrassing

Are we for real with this ****

They don't need many opportunities tonight it seems.

Jesus christ

Rask choking as he always does. Who the **** cares what he did to this point. Needed one of those. Period.

What's going on. Marchand get off the ice. Terrible

& There it is.
Great job guys.

Tukka was left hanging there
Or that was what it seems like to me

Marchand is a ****ing coward.

It's just ****ing unfair
Just unfair
We dominate 95% of the period, those *******s get like 3 shots and 2 of them go in

They're done. What an awful change

Rask needs to be perfect rest of the way. No two ways about it

That's just horrible. Marchand you idiot

Yep. Guy 3 feet in front of him. This is one the skaters not burying their ****.

Losers

2 chances, 2 goals .... just like in game 1.

This team is laying an egg at home. It's downright pathetic.

Everyone playing well but Rask.

God ****ing dammit you guys

now they're just gonna trap, and wait and we're gonna chase and chase

4 shots 2 goals lol

Marchand left his man wide open

The Blues suck
This is how they have a lead. Pitiful.

Page number: 28

What a nightmare

Ugh....miserable.

Tuukka can't give that up.
But that's all on Marchand.

Yup, they're done.
Don't deserve it though so it is what it is.

Good thing you got your breather with 8 seconds left in the period Marchand

You can take your stupid stats and shove it.
I told u I was worried

Bad bad bad bad bad change

Why I don't like hockey

oh my God this is so terrible

That's an easy excuse but isn't right

Two flukey goals and then about 8 flukey saves by Binnington.

You start to wonder if these guys know to handle pressure at home.

I'm done. Hope I'm wrong

I can't believe this S#!^ !!!

It will make it fun when we DO come back from it. Cause we WILL

What can ya say?

You're a tool.
How about Marchand shooting it right into Binnington.
Golden boy Bergeron still has zero 5 on 5 goals for.
A double deflection and a guy left wide open 2 feet in front of the net. ****ing Rask!!!

This is unbelievable

Oh my God, how is this happening?

What was Marchand thinking?

Well...that wasn't what I was expecting =/

Terrible pinch by Gryz. Awful decision there

Lol well that could have went better

Can we give Marchand the assist there?

The Blues are going to be the worst team to win the cup in the modern era if things don't change

Page number: 29

That was a twisted turn of momentum.

Ohhhh man.

Yep. And the pink hats in the crowd are gonna be quiet. Our players are gonna fold.

Marchand/Pasta/Rask No ****ing bueno.

****

They're done.
I cannot believe they got to this point only to play like that. I don't give a **** about domination, it means nothing on the scoreboard.

They need a heck of a second to get back in this.

he tried force shot through barely anytime left ..IDIOT MOVE

I mean really you do that in the final 10 seconds of a period in game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals?

Just like in game 1 when the Bruins took a lucky 2-0 lead, Bruins will win this game if they keep playing like they did in the 1st.

This might be the most embarrassing 2 goal lead in many years.
All we have to fear is the Blues sitting on it for 2 periods.

Lucky bastards.

40 minutes left, if they keep up this pressure they'll win

Bad ice, lousy Pasta?

Rask is terrible
Sigh

The most undeserved game 7 lead of all time. Absolutely completely utterly bull mother ****ing ****

Good thing Marchand got off the ice for his line change with 7 seconds left in the period

This ain't good

This is about the worse case scenario.

Incredibly awful coaching to call for a line change with 8 seconds left in a period.

12-4 shots, down 2-0. love hockey, but too much luck involved

Good, lets get all the bad over and done with in the first.

Is the game over?

Agree to disagree. Defend a .500 save percentage at home in a game 7 if you want.

Wish the CBC would get over City and Colour...

Page number: 30

It's ok, go in, relax, regroup, come out and keep skating and start ******* scoring! Go Bruins!!!!

Who the **** are you? I dislike you already

All you Rask hate masters coming out of the wood work like worms....Where you been the last two months? ****ing geniuses.

Tuukka not stepping up. Oh well. Gotta win a 5-4 game I guess.

Marchand going For the hit instead of playing defense lmao.
Microcosm of the series. We're trying to outhit a team we outskill greatly.

Bruins pooping their collective pants and dominating play all at the same time. Game is long from over but yeeesh. 4 shots 2 goals. Not on Tuukka.

Getting Rasked.

You can take your stupid fandom and shove it.

Now they can just ride binnington until the end wow...how does that even happen in the last 15 seconds of a period... Earlier i said to myself one of these two goalies is going to steal this...

The most frustrating period of ice hockey I have ever seen.

Looks like the ****head Leafs fans are coming in to troll by "liking" despondent posts in here. Are we allowed to report that?

The Bruins were better that whole period, well, minus 15 seconds.

Binnington outplaying Rask by a mile tonite

Marchand totally brain dead there.

This is why he shouldn't be playing, he's rusty and pressing at the same time

Of course they'd dominate, not score and let in 2 on 4 shots. God dammit.

Marchand going for a change with 7 seconds left... why

I don't know wtf he was thinking leaving for a change at that moment. I can understand it in the neutral zone but leaving a guy wide open at the dot is a joke

Yup gotta put the puck in the net. I better see a desperate team in the second period.

Brad Marchand and lazy defense. What a finals by him.
No longer a top defensive winger.

This is NOT fun

It's still pure domination but if the Blues do the flip the puck out for two periods ratings will plummet.

Is disaster an overstatement? I don't think so.
100% dominated that period and we're down 2-0.

And now Boston has to open it up.
Thank goodness there is 40 minutes left,

Page number: 31

16 f-ing minutes without a shot and they are up 2-0 ?! F off !!!

40 minutes to go. Score one and go from there

I ****ing knew St. Louis was going to score after we were dominating them all period. It's the Bruins MO, and it's frustrating.

They (Blues) certainly took some lucky opportunities, but man the Bruins looked good with the pressing they were doing. Outshooting has to be something, right?

Tv on mute so don't have to listen to the billington ballwahsing

Doesn't wanna take the hit. Won't throw his body out in front. Fumbling passes fumbling opportunities. Just getting outplayed except in game three.

Wtf Marchand. Can't make it 15 more seconds

We need some good vibes here people...

This post is terrible. Blaming Rask?

every game after we blow out a this team we come back and cant buy a goal

Just like game 1

Yes
Because if Blues score another, game over

What a let down.

Bring that effort for the next 2 periods, finish your chances and we still win. Get pissed off and get your **** together

Boston has scored 0 goals so far but of course it's on Rask.
Like the loss in game 6 few days ago was on Rask as well, as he's always choking.

This league and it's officiating is the worst of any league.
The goal was created after a non call board. More things after the goal go uncalled. It's textbook Blues hockey and it's gotten them this far. You don't need more talent anymore you just need to work hard and play dirty.
Their bs gets called and they still have 1 shot

Ugh...

Bs just need to keep playing like they did. They'll break through. What did the Blues have, 4 shots?

No. But according to a few on here it might as well be.

I think the difference is Binnington doesn't handle the pressure at home but he does on the road.

I'm not saying they're easy saves, but the guy can never elevate his game in the most critical moments. His rookie counterpart is standing on his head.

Full possession in the offensive zone, lots of pressure, one bad pass and it's in the back of the net.
This is just gross at this point. After the first goal, you can see the sticks getting gripped tighter.

Marchand Pastrnak the story of these playoffs. Ugh.

Tuuka has to match Binnington. Binnington made a ton of big saves. Tukka has to close the door now for us to have a chance if not...

if they lose i just hope its a blowout because im not nervous anymore

Page number: 32

Feels like it. 2-0 and they have 4 shots.

You wouldn't say that if it were the other way around.

Thursday night. Wet. Fart.
On a Wednesday.

Who cares. Their team is a joke, and they actually cheer more for the Bruins to lose than they do for the Leafs to win.
They should stick to the one sport they're ok at, Basketball.

I think I'm gonna be sick

I hate to say it but IF we lose Rask is a playoff choker. 2013 and now this.

4 shots 2 goals.
Rask where are you bud.

It's 2-2 after second. Hold your nerves.

I believe in Bergerons speech now. 40 minutes left and we can easily score 6 or more.

We were better in 2013 game six also for most of the game. We all know who ended that run.

Like 10-2 scoring chances.
And about 10 commited icings.

Repeat game 1. Lets go!

I get that Marchand is gassed, but you don't make a line change with 10 seconds left in the period IN YOUR OWN ZONE!!! You stick on your guy. He takes a line change and now their captain is wide-open coming in on Rask, all alone.

Win period 2 3-0

The boys can do it guys.
Believe.
Let's GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yea this is the most calm I've ever been down 2-0 at the end of the first.
I honestly feel it's an inevitability they come back.

Plus it's only Binnington.

tuukka got us here. maybe the boys help him out tonight?
I dont think so though. what a disaster.

Guys relax, 2 goals shouldn't be enough to win. If we cannot score, so be it. But the way we have looked so far, it's still doable.

First goal resulted from blatant boarding.
Blues aren't going to soften up with this threshold.

Where's his ****ing team? 12-4 shots with nothing to show for it

99 times out of 100 the Bruins come out of that period ahead

That was bad
I dunno how they are gonna do it, but they can still win this. It just means literally burying two quick chances in period 2. They have to

Agreed better win or out

Did you not watch the last game ... or Games 6 & 7 against Toronto ... or the clinchers against Columbus & Carolina?
The guy has been insane. A deflection and a guy left wide open in front of the net because of a crappy line change.

Page number: 33

we need to be tied heading into the 3rd or i wont feel ok at ALLL

I'm going with you on this. Frustrating as hell but play another 40 mins like this and Binnington will crack.

Save percentage is 50% for Rask.
Yikes. **** Binnington,

It's the end of the Blackhawks game all over again, but in the 1st period. What a choke job!

Plenty of time and talent to come back, just have to start finishing some of their chances.

rask not coming up huge...sigh

Better regroup fast

**** me.
But with how well they're playing I expect them to tie it up quickly in the second.

Lots of time left. Need a huge 2nd period and keep carrying the play.

He should have never went off twenty seconds left you stay on I don't care how tired you are.

Rask is not the problem, but he is not playing where his team needs him that for sure. I am serious I would trade Pasta after this series and first period. Total horse crap.

I wouldn't call that period laying and egg.
Blues didn't get a shot in 14min than get a lucky deflection goal and a breakdown last second goal to take a 2-0 lead.
Bruins played a great period but didn't convert anything and Blues everything.
Bruins will win this game. Just like game 1.

They've faced longer odds before and won. They were down 2 in Game 1, and won. They need to go back to the room, regroup, and come back and score early in the 2nd.

2013 he was excellent though sooooo

After the first one, I was still cool. Now, I'm beyond irate

shake it off, you guys had a good first and were all over them..Rask has to step it up if Binnington is just going to play out of his mind...But if the B's keep getting those kind of chances at that rate then it will sort itself out over 40 minutes.the next goal is so damn crucial

Who gives a **** ?

I can't stress this enough. It's an all time coaching mess up by Cassidy to call for a line change with 8 seconds left

Yup, avoids the +/- on that one. Phew!!

4 shots 2 goals. No excuse you cannot win with that

Just get 1 in the second, 1 in the third, win it in OT. Pretty simple.

The Rask apologists out in flocks as well

trying to **** up my last day of vacation

Totally Rask's fault Brad Marchand plays like a rookie on defense. ****ing Rask.

People jumping ship. Cool.
Buck up people!

Page number: 34

I know it's tough to blame Rask for those goals but in the end it's two goals on four freaking shots. Give your team a save.

Man we can take this . It's there for them. They can score like 6 goals in this game.

Another disaster period by the first line. I feel more confident having the 4th line out there than I do the first line.

Somebody predicted a 5-4 win for the Bruins with DeBrusk getting the winner ...I hope he/she is right
What's up with Pasta???

They've faced longer odds before and won. They were down 2 in Game 1, and won. They need to go back to the room, regroup, and come back and score early in the 2nd.

Total brain dead move by marshy

Yea if this postseason has done anything, it's shed the tag of Marchand being a 2 way player.
He is braindead on D.

LOLOL here come the Tuukka haters.

I don't care how gassed he was, how the eff does Marchand just leave his man there ? Effing pathetic. Oh, and Rask HAS to have one of those, PERIOD !!

Barkley? Seriously?

I mean, we were the better team by far, we controlled play, dominated possession and scoring chances but didn't bury anything.
If that keeps up, there's no reason we can't come back and score a bunch of goals.

Need to finish on the numerous chances.

I'm depressed.

Frustrating tough. Couldn't be worse than that.
They will come back. They just have to.

Y'all remember game one? We were down 2-0 then.

Imagine paying thousands to watch this?

The game is not over yet folks but the bruins have to score in this period. It's embarrassing how they start these games at home.

He didnt "call for a line change". Holy hell, this isnt peewee.

we need some milk

Chuck in the house- now I'm going to puke

God I swear some of you don't even deserve to watch the team win a cup with the sour ass attitudes around here..
Marchand was ****in cooked and out there for awhile....Stupid play? Yeah, but dude needed to get off....
Rask? Meh, yeah he don't look great alright...
Theres STILL 2 PERIODS LEFT!
WE DOMINATED 90% OF THAT PERIOD!
They've come back from down 4-1 with 10 minutes to go...
They were down 2 in Game 1 and WON!
WE GOT 2 ****ING PERIODS LEFT!!!!
Bergeron and Marchand look pretty good offensively...Yeah Marchand shoulda buried that one shot...but hes looked fine outside that...Pasta has been the sore spot there...
This team aint done yet....PLENTY OF GAME LEFT!

Hockey is the most random sport, dominate all period and come out down 2-0
Amazing
I really hope the guys can keep up the first period play and put a few by Binnington

Never a good feeling when the teams not finishing their chances.
None the less, 40 mins left to lay. Put the foot back on the gas and LFG

I'm ****ing done with him. Trade him

Members of this fanbase just can't wait until they can turn on Rask. It's what they live for.

Page number: 35

Cheering for another team to win for you is like getting someone else to please your wife for you

How do you choke in the first period?? GTFO

Just make it 2-1 in the second.
Binnington amazing Rask trash garbage.

Great, we're back to every single goal against being a referendum on Rask. I thought that had been put to rest three series ago.

Chip away. Own this period

Maybe not even top 10 on the reasons we're losing right now...but why the F does every Bruin get tossed out of the face-off dot?

At least I can spend the rest of the game depressed instead of anxious.
Classic Bruins handing a glorified backup a shutout.

I'm not jumping ship but I'm smart enough to know we've hit an iceberg and are taking on water in the 5th bulkhead.

They are shooting at him. The holes are everywhere.
Just score.

We got 40 minutes left.

We're coming back. Mark it down. We dominated that period and two mistakes cost us. Time to STEP UP and get our shots in. Deflections. Block Binningtons view. We got this. Butch will correct these mistakes.
We limited them to what? 3 shots on goal that period?

Not worried. Deep breath.

Woof.

Stoo ped

I want to be hear to talk with people who get my pain but the rask trolls are just unbearable

4 shots 2 goals. SAD

How????
The Blues aren't gon a play that badly again. The Bruins are gonna make more mistakes. What a ****ing disaster

3 home looses this team don;t deserve a cup run.

Style points

Yeah well they didn't. Better come out of the next one ahead. Go Bruins!!!!

i am not a Rask hate master but tonight being game 7 of the final mean the last two months don't mean a ****ing thing.

BETTER get next goal and not in 3rd SOON

Nope. All on the goalie. Never the 5 ****ing people in front of him

Athletes simply do not get any awesome-r than Sir Charles.

no one in front of net...ever...overthought this one, not playing Backes

Pastrnak needs to get his stick out of his ass too and get some shots on goal. The ice looks like **** too.

Page number: 36

I had a feeling it may start out like this but there is 2 periods left and they can turn it around

Christ...

Something in the top 6 needs to change in the offseason.

Team can't score, rask can't save. Who the **** cares who's fault is? No one is doing their job. No one.

They dominated and made two critical errors. It's okay. The biggest thing is to not get discouraged. The crowd needs to stay in the game though.

He didn't get warmed up like Binnington.
That's the reason I prefer the overpassing over the ****ing "shoot everything at the net"

Yes he did

I wanna see it and not talk about it

Barkley can't name 1 player on either team and he is the intermission go to guest?

Make a big save and bail him out. The team in front of him is doing almost everything else right in front of him

if you came out flat thats one thing, dominated the period and some **** happened, long game and still have last change..plenty plenty of time

Rask has to shut the door now.

We will win this.
The Bruins know they're better.

2 home losses.

This is how St. Louis does it. They get their hopes up and then they get crushed. They are born losers

If dominating them and still 40min to go is hitting a iceberg to you, go ahead.
Think the Blues can be that horse shoe for 2 more periods?

Best players have to be your best players
Bergeron, Marchand, Pastrnak, and Rask need to step it up for the next two periods.

If they're gonna lose 2-1 I'd much rather STL come out and score three early goals and ice this game 5-0 in the second

Just like that first period, this Charles Barkley interview is turrrible

Were ok, we are pushing pace the goals will come

Idiot Marchand
Even if you are tired, penalize Pitrangelo then

Can someone explain how this game is over after one period because I sure don't ****ing see it

Marchand can get it back. Up to him at this point.

Marchand should be REALLY ASHAMED OF HIM SELF

It's not over till it's over.

Page number: 37

Well this is all but over if we're being totally honest with ourselves. STL clamps down with the lead and the poor ice makes it even harder. Basically a repeat of Game 5, they had their chances early on and didn't capitalize. Shameful display from the top line this series.

Barkley got all the winners so he says

I don't think we have a better period than that.

30 NHL teams immediately come calling... but I really don't know where his effort has gone this round.

They better score in the second period. Something about this group when the chips are down .

maybe they should have had TT be the flag waver not a freaking NE Patriot

Over?
Please

He needed to make a save on that 2nd goal, absolute killer in the biggest game of his career.

Just beat these no talent head hunting losers down 2-0 like they did in game 1.
Do it.

So it's the goalies fault and not a guy who is supposed to play great defense. Why can't Marchand make the play. Why is this on Rask?

This is going to be tough, but I'll stick with my 5-2 Bruins prediction.

Game set match. Hope I'm wrong

Better not be Fairlife.

Bruins are the king of crushing the hopes and dreams of other fans. They will come back and win this thing.

Marchand better have two goals in him.

The play of the Bergeron line though. Christ on a cracker they're sandbagging us
Let's hope somebody is in Marchand and Pastrnaks face, losing their **** at max volume. Unacceptable period from them.

The second one wasn't Rask's fault. The first was deflected but you expect a vezina caliber goalie to protect the five hole.
I just can't believe we're making that mediocre rookie Binnington look like prime Dominik Hasek

Its not
But how can you give up 2 goals in 4 shots

Well... i was thinking we had the edge in net.... not in the first. Binnington made the difference.
Marchand did not protect his zone on the last Blues goal.
Boston played a good period... but no goal. st-Louis were outplayed and they are 2-0 ... hockey is strange.

We all knew they weren't going to make calls in this game other than automatic ones. It kinda sucks, but it's always like that.

And an apple

They're scoring three in the second

BOOK IT

Kill me
Just kill me now

no, just want the guy to make big saves in big games

Marchand will never live that down if we don't come back. At least not from me. Joke

Page number: 38

He named Sid!

2 Stanley cup finals losses

The fact you dont think coaches call line changes in the nhl is hilariously unfortunate

They're the better team. If we're going to be down 2-0 the 1st is the time. Come out ****ing flying. Make it 2-2 going into the 3td.

Please score the next 2 guys

That couldn't have gone any worse

Marchand should be REALLY ASHAMED OF HIM SELF

Dead on like always

bruins are not scoring 3 goals book it.

Don cherry said the Bruins would win tonight
I so wish that idiot hadn't said that

2 goals on 4 shots, when the team absolutely dominated the period.

Wow, definitely on Marchand that one. Rask had hard period with only 4 shots and I know, only .50 save% but cmon, one deflected goal and another one where Marchand leaves his man wide open to walk in and score. Not so much Rask can do.

Wow just saw the replay again. Marchand went for a change from inside his blue line. What in the actual ****!! You're choking it all away.

The Blues can't be so lucky the whole game. Just stick to the gameplan (minus the brainfarta) and we still have a great chance!

Blues aren't deserving of the Cup but instead B's just handing it to them.

It's not over yet folks but they cannot allow any more goals. They need to score quickly here.

Final game 7 1st intermission and its Barkley talking about Crosby and then about Toronto, wtf

I'll take a goal

I myself am not sayin' it is, but idk how people ARE saying it is

I've been saying that a lot these playoffs.

Well
It Is not over but they are in deep trouble
I hâte it very fast, when they make other goalie like god they lose
Losing 3 home games in a cup final would be historic losers
I always defend him, but may be tonight Rask will be consacred as eternal loser !
They have 2 periods to not become classic losers gang

I wound up to throw hands at the wall lol and then realized this is my girlfriends house. Not mine. Close call.

I feel so deflated.

Never count this team out.

Just looking stats? Look at the goals. Not so easy goals to save.

Page number: 39

People who dont have any faith in this team and were sure they'd lose game 6.
Its sickening.

You got to wonder where a players head is at when he makes that kind of play.
He shouldn't get a pass on that if this was preseason, nvm game 7

Kill me. Now.

Needs to get his thumb out of his a**. It's obviously his thumb - not only can he not shoot, he can't even receive a pass or handle the puck. Just brutal.

Marchand had an awful period overall, not just play on the 2nd goal. It does look like Bergeron is dialed in though. I thought overall the D was great.

Jesus what.
Do you think they are coming back. I don't wanna hear well if this happens or this .. yes or no are they. Even though home ice means nothing.

I get that the period looks bad on Rask but there's fans legitimately pumped to be able to **** on him again and it's pathetic.

You are.

and what does hat mean about chara Marchand Bergeron and krejci

No problem...
Little adversity to start the game, I know my Bs will get those back and Tuukka will stop every thing these last two periods of the year.
Let's Go Boston Lets Go

I hope you're wrong, too, but my instincts are with you.

You have to be pretty good to GET to the Stanley Cup Final.
Carey Price has played in zero Stanley Cup Finals. Lundqvist has played in one. Those are probably the two best goaltenders of our generation.

Next goal is huge. Blues go up 3-0, it's over.

Simply put, if we lose 3 out of 4 home games against the, we don't deserve it. Don't care about luck or anything like that.

Sorry guys. Maybe I shouldn't be watching
They sometimes seem to do better when I dont. I'll just use nhl.com to keep track of thigns from here on out

He changed his mind now.

Do we have any elias sports bureau fun fact yet about what the largest deficit overcome in a game 7 for the cup yet?

Binnington Conn Smythe Rask 2x choker again.

Shoot me now. Dooooooshbag flyers fan who knows nothing about hockey.Only that toolbox bettman would give him tix

If we hold them to 4 shots the next 2 periods, I like our chances.

Exactly. There's 40 minutes left to chip away at this ****ing game and tie it and better yet take the lead

I hate to be pessimistic at this point, but the ice absolutely brutal out there. Gonna be hard to score 3. The Blues will just go into a complete shell up 2 with the ice like this.

Think of all the saps that dropped their monthly paycheck on this game.

6..

Page number: 40

Outplay the other team for majority of the period, get scored on. It's called Bruins.

Ofourse you're esctaic their
Losing 2-0!!!
I'll shove one thing
The cup!!
But u can wallow in bliss with your stats

glad i didn't spend 1000 on a ticket to watch this tonight

Feel like Pasta and Bergy are injured. IDK about Marchand.

All 4 of them sucked that period. Once again being carried by the other 3 lines. And Rask? 4 shots ? Sorry buddy you have been great but that was a decraceful effort

Yes

It aint over. If they keep playing like they did in the 1st and start finishing it'll be 4-2 going into the 3rd.

If I'm Rask, which I played goalie most of the time I played hockey...
I'd stand up in the room and be like, Sorry guys...Get it back and nothing else is getting by. We got this. Time to go to work.

I've seen this before.
Game 7 against the Habs 2004, 2008, and 2014. We're not coming back.

But what a 15 seconds they were.

EXPERIENCE MEANS SQUAT SO FAR ..GUYS WITH IT REASON LOSING.

I've felt much worse than this in a championship game before. Just remember 28-3. It can be done.

It's not about the Blues ability to be lucky for two more periods, they can sit on the luck they got, play anti hockey, and hit to punish and this game goes to a snooze fest. The B's need to keep the pressure up but add more poise to their shots.

I have no idea.
What was the score in game 1 again?
This one is utter dominance.
The Bruins will get one... then two... then three....

Schenn & Tarasenko scored the first 2 goals in game 1.
Think I'll stay tuned.

One was a double deflection and the other was a star player in alone. Bad luck, but their lack of finish is brutal.

I'm aware of that, but he needs to elevate like Binnington is doing right now. A good 3 or 4 saves Binnington had were similar level of difficulty to what the 2nd goal was.

No but it would have been nice to help your team out and make one of those saves.

Yep. The reason they're here is because of that of hockey. The league is a joke.
What a great example for other teams to try and imitate going forward.

Keep it simple.
Shoot and crash the net Get that first one and plant the seed

Rask needs to shut the door the rest of the way. no more goals let up and the boys need to break through and get a few quick ones on Binny.
lets tie this ***** up.

Ok I respect that .

Marchand gets a lot of points, but he makes boneheaded play after boneheaded play on both sides of the ice.
Sick of him

Then why is he on the PP fanning on every one-timer that comes his way.

Great, looks like you can go to bed then.

If the Blues win, the Smythe definitely goes to O'Reilly.

DEFENCE NEEDS TO GET UP BOARDS AND CLOSE OFF CLEARINGS..CANNOT WAIT TILL 3RD .NEED SOME MOMENTUM BAD

Oh they will. Guys have ben flying in the first. They have come back from much worse in this post-season.

Remember that time Marchand said into a live mic today that 2013 still burns? I remember.

Anyone blaming Rask is just dumb
Sorry

Don't see us scoring 5 goals to win

Jurassic World is on FXX. Man I'd forgot how terrible this movie is.

Only things pissing me off are the flashes to the blues fans in St. Louis and that o'reilly Is so much better than Bergeron

Does it ever work when you tell yourself, "It's just a game?"

Guys we ****ing dominated that period. Be pissed but not at the effort. **** ****ing luck.

Trys to do to much..

Diarrhea fingers tonight. Blaming Rask is comical.

If he's not physically injured, he's mentally injured.

I am stunned that people don't think coaches call for line changes at the nhl level. I used to work for the father of equipment manager of the bruins and he confirmed to me that the coach calls line changes.

Ok time to fire one up. It's worked in past playoffs. We were down to Finland same exact score in the gold medal game. Let git er done

Everyone saying they're done can stop watching and then eventually crawl back when we win

this the first game you've seen this post season? or are ONLY game 7's off the final a big game?

Oh, you're smart. You know about ships and icebergs. Sorry.

Sick of him? Lol. Relax

Everything will be ok if they can make this 2-1 early. They will be back in the game. They have to find a way though.

every time they blew out this team the play likethis the next game . but serious go 1-3 at home in a SCF UGH

Bruins didn't allow a shot in more than 14min.
Don't let the score fool you. Bruins totally dominated that period.
And they will win the Cup if they keep it up.

Not when it mattered.

Here is the FTP for the second period.
Enjoy, the Stanley Cup FTP!!!

Saying they're dumb is being nice.

I should never be the level headed one here.
Get this crap out of here.

If any team can come back and win it's this one. But damn, 2 goals on 4 shots after dominating the 1st really stings.

Win the 2nd.

Rask hasn't had a single good save.

Sup

LET'S ****ING GO BOYS
THIS ISN'T EVEN CLOSE TO OVER

I still believe.

No worries.
Here we go Bruins, Here we go!!!!

Not worried. Make it 2-1, then 2-2, then step on the throat. Plenty of time

We've seen worse. Let's ****ing go. Bruins got this.

It's do or die for these guys in this period. They can get back in this with a goal. They have to score.

Make those the only 2 goals they score

Not worried.
If we are looking at the same or worse score by the end of the 2nd tho?
Maybe.

Homeice and might lay 3rd egg facing a rookie and team full of plugs..Shocking.

Thats all that the Blues have. We dominated that period. keep playing like that and we will break through. once we get one it will open the flood gates.

Bruins win this 6 - 2
I WANT A SIX PACK!!!!!

krech, march and mojo all had great scoring chances...have to finish

That sucked, and maybe they'll lose because of it. In fact, the odds say they will. Binnington has played really well, but this game is not over. There are 40 minutes left. That is plenty of time to come back.

Deep breath. We're still winning this.
Believe.
If you dont? GET OUT.

Cannot allow any more goals. Score 2 here and make it a game.

All those people at Busch Stadium are going to get pneumonia, and I won't even feel bad

Might
Game aint over

I'm getting the sense that people are mad.

Marchand comes out strong this period. Book it!

F Olcyk.
F St. Louis
F Olcyk again

Rask better tighten up.Looks sketchy

I hate the blues

Fresh thread. Good vibes. Take the negativity elsewhere.
40 mins left

I'd be a little worried. Lol

2-0 in hockey is nothing. Remember, the Pats trailed 28-3 after close to 3 Quarters.

4-2 going into the third.

2nd periods always our worst.
better get the next one or its over im afraid

All BRuins had a good first for Rask exception. Start the same... Boston will need to pay attention to not overplay and give a third goal...

I'm scared!

For the love of God score one in the first 5 minutes and knock the horseshoe out of their asses.

Can see us winning 4-2

Bury your chances

I guess the only possible silver lining is that the pressure is off to some degree. No one expects them to win now

scoring three this period... Krecji, Moore, Pasta

2 goals is just a crazy deficit to overcome game 7 SCF. Hope they can do it

I got a good feeling this period. The last one not so much. We got this.

If I'm Rask, which I played goalie most of the time I played hockey...
I'd stand up in the room and be like, Sorry guys...Get it back and nothing else is getting by. We got this. Time to go to work.

And if the Bruins keep playing this way the next 2 periods, I'd take them to win over the Blues 10/10..No way STL keeps playing that way and wins this game....no chance...
Bruins will step it up...
I'm not worried. They aren't about to roll over and die and nothing has shown that. Hell Krug laid someone out right before period ended.
LETS ****ING GO BOYS!!!! GET IT DONE!!!!

Keep getting chances, start getting goals! Go Bruins!!!!

Lets go get the next 3 goals

Can't wait to crawl into bed and sleep.

I hate the score so much.
But I liked the period.
Two more like that and they win the Cup.
The horse shoe has it's limits...

Page number: 3

Ok, I'm back from the graduation. No worries, Bruins are coming back to win this game!!

What makes me nervous is that you know the next penalty call is going against us.

Game 1 is suddenly front and center of my memory.

imagine blaming rask for anything and still going on about how rask doesn't "elevate his game in the biggest moments" even though hes proven numerous times that he has

TONS of time left !!!

I'm too much of a masochist to stop watching. My stomach is churning and my head is pounding.
I can't believe they are going to lose to this bunch of ass holes but here they are.

You're right..Money goalies make the saves when it counts
No matter what
Has he done this?

5 next

One name..TOM BRADY.

Score some farking goals ..Cup on line pile no shows WAKE THE FARK UP.

You'll be too busy celebrating to sleep =)

So Binnington has been good, but me thinks fans here are reacting to the announcers reactions and not the actual shot on net

We. Got. This.

I believe.

You need to. Your negativity and bad juju doesnt help! So either have the faith and belief we will come back or get out. I dont wanna see that crap on here.

WE'RE WINNING THIS GAME.

Sucks they were so dominant that period and we are facing disaster right now. So ****ing frustrating.

Get the next goal and we're right back in it!

Let's go and get the next goal.
Win this period, win the next.

I really thought theyd win so this was bound to happen. I tried to convince myself they would lose

Have you watched this entire playoff run with your head in the sand?

Tuukka has to be better

Kuraly will get us at least one this period.

Next goal decides this.

Hope so but I'm done.

That's my hope.

To some, who are still demanding a pelt from six or nine years ago or whose sports knowledge comes from listening to talk radio, if he doesn't go 16-0 with 16 shutouts in the playoffs, he's a bum.

With all respect ... Can we compare the Bruins to the Pats?

not tonight..so far

Game over???

I'm just going to keep drinking.

And the Canucks trailed 3-0 after 2 periods against the Bruins.

Game on!

Still fuming

Lets go guys.

Jeebuz, that was a heavy pour.
No worries though.
Here we go Bruins, Here we go!!!

Spin it anyway you want, but that 2nd goal was an absolute killer.
It's like thinking you're down 7 going into halftime and then giving up a punt return for a TD on a blown coverage. Totally changes everything.
Now the Blues can play loose and dirty and our guys will be tighter than a snare drum.

HERE WE GO STEP UP BOYS!!!

I think we should be able to count on a save on the second goal, even if Marchand and Grzelcyk ****ed up too. We had, what, five chances like that and it snuck by inside on their one. He won't stay at 50% SVS%, that's for sure

Keep putting it on net.
Those massive rebounds should have been goals.
We put the puck right into him instead of open nets.
It's fine. The Bruins are fine.

come on tuuks shut the door. you havent let goals in like that since round 1

This team has to score in the first 10 minutes. They have to. They have been so lousy at home when it comes to putting the damn puck in the net.

You know when you haven't had alcohol in months a few beers hit you pretty hard.

Next goal wins

Really need Heinen to do something

Would really like everyone to start paying attention here

I find this exciting (I know, I'm sick), but now we get to see what this team is truly made of... GO BRUINS!!

I don't want to sound like a hater, but I wasn't that impressed with Binnington.

Pasta with another giveaway. that is like 5 already.

That's no more a factor.only tonight counts . There's still time to salvage this I imagine
But I'm feeling very worried and I think you'll agree .. justifiably so

sorry I'll stop posting.

Page number: 5

QUICK passes they are freezing for block's

Agreed. The Krejci chance just barely hit his jersey, similar position to where the Pietrangelo goal sneaked in on Rask. Several others were outright misses. He's positionally sound, which is important, but he's not robbing us blind repeatedly.

LET'S GO BRUINS!!!!

Can we compare the two sports? The Cup I think is a more difficult prize

Was thinking more the Bruins with their backs to the puck for some reason

Are we really blaming rask for a deflected puck and Cassidy calling one of the worst line changes in nhl history by calling a line change with 10 seconds left in a period?

You're definitely a hater!

Score a frigging goal please

Everything getting blocked from the points

Our top 6 forwards are insanely soft. They're legit terrified of getting hit.

Lol at thinking the coach is calling for the change.

Three guys on one side of the ice while Tarasenko marches in.
C'mon.

First time I heard Danton Heinens name.

Put the damn puck in the net.

I agree the cup is harder but the Brady Pats are the best team in NFL history...aren't they?

I know as a fact that the coach calls line changes. I know the equipment manager who is on the bench.
(I've had this discussion with him in the past)
I worked for his father Stu Falconer who works for JJ O'Brien's construction company

is the Bolts board full of cobwebs again??

Fans need to wake the **** up!

Johansson always looking for the pass.

Nothing we post can enable them to finish or prevent Binnington from playing out of his mind.
Let's see what they do the rest of the night and life will go on one way or another.

Centering passes to nobody are my pet peeve.

Zero puck luck.

Heinen is useless.

Christ they can't even keep it in the offensive zone...

Page number: 6

come on pasta no through the legs bull****. stop being pretty put the ****ing puck on the net

We're due for some puck luck. This has been ridiculous

SHOOT THE GODDAMN PUCK

Nope...Not even close

wakeup please

He's been good. Sorry.
Need to beat him soon.

No luck

They have four players sitting on the blue line.
This might be tough.

Seriously

Yes

Need at least 1 this period.

Common boys

If we lose this is Tom Brady's fault.

Blues just skating it down and dumping it in.
No forecheck

Who?

wow these guys can't even establish something. What the ****

Backes would have a hat trick by now

Boston needs to get more physical. STL will curl up.

Good job Tuukka

Mods, please deactivate my account. I'm done

Is anyone useful right now?

THIS IS HORRIBLE PLAY...BLUES LONG CHANGE NO PRESSURE AT ALL

I still believe dammit

Seems legit.

Page number: 7

Interference leads to offside

I'm not giving up on this team.

Sitting Backes curse lol

Trying dream passes dump it in

If we lose this its on the "perfection" line. Two years in a row they are no shows when we need them.

Feels like game 5

I'm right there with you if this doesn't turn around

The Bruins are fine don't worry.

LUCK IS NICE BUT PLAYMAKERS are not showing UP

Come on boys....keep pushing, flood gates will burst

They're gonna finish the game with like 10 shots lol

So easy for the Blues...who still have 4 shots.

I wanna see Debrusk not trip over the blue line

Be nice score one goal

That's...not an icing

That second goal was so brutal. Being down 1 would be so much better right now.

This team must be nervous. This is downright pathetic.

Blues already packing it in. This gonna be a damn sludge game now

Pasta has 1 shot. Whiffed on everything

D men need to start pinching in more. I know it's early but we need to get on the board

Well duh.

Speaking of sludge, the Bruins should be fined for this ice quality

If Coyle gets that to MoJo it's a goal

Everything is to the outside right now. They can't even get the puck near the slot.

The Blues had to have 7 men ont he ice there

Page number: 8

Now Boston can't handle the puck.

coyle totally missed the puck on that pass
eveyone is ****ing pissing me off right now

SHOOT THE ****ING PUCK

That Coyle play tells it all.LOSING FOCUS

gotta stop playing on the perimeter

Danton Whonen

Classic case of :
The overachievers (Blues)
Vs the underachievers (bruins)

So many stupid mistakes ****ing come on

They need a goal fast.

Yeah just dump it right to them

continued butter fingers at the worst times

Cheapskate Jacobs strikes again.

Deep breaths.

This is what it is like being a Bruins fan. Frustration after frustration.

Maybe Rask just wants to set up a Leafs 2013 situation

I don't even know what to be mad at
The effort seems to be there, but execution is completely off for everyone.

One shot all period...and it's better than anything we've mustered.
Getting super frustrated with our scorers. Every single one of them is choking.

Who switched the B's sticks with pool noodles?

i cant watch

Need a bounce. Team is looking tight.

Lots of deep breaths and lots of belief and faith.

He can't skate or stick handle tonight but other than that he's been solid.

Labotomy

Anyone whose in here at the game....Is the ice THAT ****ING BAD?! It sure looks like it the way the pucks bouncing and players struggling to make passes and ****

Gripping the sticks tighter and tighter right now. The team that was flying in the first 15 minutes is long gone.

Page number: 9

Five now.
Just all around not a champion. Win early on cheap shots. Win late with luck.
Bruins will overcome.

jesus christ
Shots on net, pick up the slop resulting

Gonna be a damn shame if we can't play our skill game because the puck won't stay flat.

I am legit experiencing pressure in my chest.

Deep breaths my ass. I'm here and crowd is LOL on Rask pathetic performance.

Deep breaths and a Bruins goal coming up

shoot from the point and crash the net

I hope the b's don't quit like some of you in here

We get the next goal and it's about to get real

Bruins have whiffed on at least a dozen playsLACK OF FOCUS

They desperately need a goal to get the floodgates open.

Now come on, we have it better than fans of most teams.

How bad is the ice? Seems like no one can make a pass lol

Tons of shots to the net . Expose this fraud

Let's ****ing go boys

I felt that way at the start, but the pressure is gone now

Deep breath.
In through your nose, hold for 5 seconds, breathe out

Good thing we have all them big bodies up front to get past the big St. Louis defense on the forecheck!

What is with the Heinen ripping? He's not the one that is responsible for the 2 goals on the board. He has maintained possession in the offensive zone and has the same amount of points as every single other Bruin dressed tonight.

No offense by the bruins. Seems like they already checked out.

It's bad but STL scored 2 off it

Alright..let's start winning!

The. Blues are a cheap low level skilled team BUT not a team you want to give a 2-0 lead too even if it is with lots of time left
They are very difficult to penetrate with a lead

Run Runaway by Slade.

Page number: 10

two goal lead.
worst lead in hockey

come on boys make that statement true

Blues in Devils mode

Its not quitting its disgustion..MAN THE FARK UP ON HOME ICE ..A ROOKIE IN NET LOL

Please delete my account

This is the type of blown opportunity that fans will NEVER forget.
Better team...and just can't get it done.

Think Vince Dunn is related to Kevin Dunn?

Huh?

Freudian slip there my dude

It;s the whiniest, saltiest thing in the world to say "the better team lost", but that's what we're looking at...

Way too many times, they put something together only for somebody to fan on a pass/shot, have a puck bounce over a stick, a player loses an edge and on and on. If they manage to actually get a quality chance on net, Binnington is looking good. You can call him flukey, lucky, or criticize his rebound control but he's stopping pucks.

They need a goal soon.

Crowd is done. So sad this is what they showed up to see

crowd dead already

Yes his name is Matt falconer, fathers name is Stu falconer and his brother was the director of the shot "˜how I met your mother' and the show "˜blue mountain state'
His dad was also part owner of the company JJ O'Brien's a construction company.

They won't. I actually feel bad for them . Other then that boneheaded marshy play they've Been the better team.

You ever see an old man with a thermostat?

that bucky beaver mother****er

Haha not really just easy
To mix their names up

Finally an icing to help us

Being suffocated know other way of looking at it

Move your feet Marchand u stiff

Need a ****ing bounce here

And people wanna get on Rask? Why? This is team is struggling to score.

Whistles are officially put away.

****ing atrocious first 8 minutes.
Team has NOTHING right now

Page number: 11

First line has been pathetic on defense

Boys look like ****. Someone tell them there's half a game yet to play

Do B's have any shots this period? They look spent

Team looks dead

The Blues are just going to play this defensive shell and counterattack the rest of the night. Frustrating as ****.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to cut you off and ask for your keys, Miss.

Better teams don't give up **** goals or make otherwise costly mental errors.

I think it's fair to ask Heinen to actually step up score a goal at some point in this series considering he is a forward and, ultimately, you hope to get goals from forwards.

We'lol bounce back in game 8 .. oh wait

Just think if you paid for a ticket to this mess tonight.

Our first line has failed us

Plenty of time left

Whatever happened to the super noisy boston bruins fans?

CHOKING

Pretty clear no penalties are being called either way which is a damn shame.

Jim Cornette approves of this message

Why do I feel like it's over. It really shouldn't be. Blues have done nothing.

This is ****ing painful

DeBrusk looking very Seguin circa 2013

Top 6 failing again.

Blues are going to play 3 guys back the rest of the game.

Make noise crowd.

I miss Seguin every day.

Might be time to start diving. They aren't scoring 5 on 5 playing like this

Page number: 12

DO SOMETHING

Crowd has given up

blues are playing way to comfortable right now.
Bruins need to make it uncomfortable for them

Game's just about half over and the team looks dead.

This effort just isn't going to get it done.

Not seeing the same jump we had in the 1st

Bruins should be ashsmed this effort so far.YOUR ON HOME ICE MAN.

Also, blues aren't doing anything but Boston has lost that dominating factor they needed here in the 2nd.

Blues trapping with at least 3 always back.
Will be tough getting in with skills play. Get it behind them and pound.

Seems there are like 7 Blues out there on the ice. They're clogging the neutral zone. Going to have to dump and chase

So. Many. Icings. Gotta make them pay eventually

What do we have 1 shot so,far this period

Because our first line stinks!!!!! I feel bad for Rask. He will get some blame here.

The Blues are officially in their
Impenetrable cocoon..

Replaced by high rollers and people who believe they win every time and are currently confused.

They've shown more life this period than the Bs.

Or go into a corner and come out with blood on his nose instead of lipstick on his cheeks

Love the aggressive play by Krug.

Priced out

Come on boys

blues aren't gonna give us any room for the rest of the game
that's why you gotta score first idiots

Lol

Lucic aint walking through that door horton aint walking through that door. Hopefully 46 and 37 do decide to walk through that door...and 63, 74 or 88 decide to as well

Yep.
Terrible and dishonorable hockey but it makes sense. It's the only way they'll win..

Shoot the damn puck

Page number: 13

Getting schooled

stop going to the outside along the boards that is playing into the blues strength. you need to go to the net.

This is what is really pissing me off.
Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final at home and you're playing like this????

Slipping away

Can't cycle, nothing off the rush, no pressure.
They're done

Prevent defense.
We ain't scoring three.

Guess we will get em next year?

Tuuuuuuuukkaa!!

Alright huge save

Tuuuuukkkkk

Jeeeesus.

4th line trash.

flubbed it again

SHOOT IT YOU ****ING IDIOTS STOP WITH THE PASSES TO NO ONE AND THE BOARD PLAY. ****ING CHRIST

HOw man fann jobs now NERVOUS MUCH

****ing Burins are so flat footed now

They're totally dominating us

Save by Rask and big block by Acciari. Maybe the Bruins can feed off this

Every damn player on this team forgot how to shoot.

Rask is visibly rattled

lmao Pasta whiffed again

Feels like they're never scoring again.

Tonight is one of those nights
Where every shot (by Blues)
Is a goal or a pure drama

Cmon

They've got 28 minutes to pull off a miracle

Page number: 14

Fans have been taken out if this game. Ugh. I can't believe this our home ice performance.

Total dog **** in this period

whiff number 5 for Pasta

**** Pasta seriously WTF???/

They're legit not going to score

4th line trash. This is hard to watch. They haven't had a shot in a long time. Been on 15 for a while.

We've whiffed on about 10 shots so far.
Pathetic.

Looks like they want it more now . 3 shots this period

These clowns must have sweaty palms each time they got the puck. Flat out embarrassing stuff thus far.

How many wiffs does Pasta getz

Ugh this is brutal

B's are getting totally dominated now

Bruins getting worked now...

Pucks on net

Outmatched by a crap team
Incredible

DeBrusk has the right idea. SHOOT EVERYWHERE.

The league reaps what they sow here allowing the Blues to play their brand of hockey all the way up to this point. Dirty ass team capitalizes off of a non call after getting dominated, adds another, and then goes into turtle mode for the rest of a finals game 7. Riveting hockey.

Clogging the middle. This **** is over. Losing the SCF in the first period of a Game 7. Hahahaha

Very bad angle? Take the shot
In the center of the ice? Pass.

they did this twice this series blow them out and next game can't score a goal unreal. But never ever thought they would go 1-3 at home

If they don't score this period it will be even more difficult in the 3rd.

We're just hoping and wishing to score at this point.
1st line eats ass.

Bruins going out with a whimper. Didn't see that comin.

8 shots woof

mock cheer for the dump in on Binnington.

SHOOOOOT

Shouldn't have avoided the offsides.

Puck is bouncing again. Looks like bad ice.

Infuriating

Too easy for Binnington there.

This has been a great period for the Blues

Man I'm in pain right now.....I hate this feeling

I can't do this with my life

Sloppy ****ing hockey

They won't even throw a hit.
Cooked

Chara saved that goal

This is what happens when you rely on your PP too much for your goals

To play like this at home with your season on the line

Big save...but needed that last period.
Feels like it's too late at this point.

"went off the goal stick of Rask"
Doc can't even call it a save but shots into Bibbinton's logo are amazing saves.

Time is flying off that clock.

HOCKEY GODS. I'M CALLING ON YOU TO STOP ****ING WITH US AND GRANT THE BRUINS THE LUCK YOU HAVE TAKEN FROM US ALL SERIES.

SOME 2011 MAGIC BY CHARA PREVENTING THAT GOAL???
LETS GO BOYS!!!!

They lost in their minds after the first goal.

Coyle playing his worst game of the playoffs

No they aren't.

We need sustained pressure in the offensive zone. We need passes with a purpose. We need to SHOOT.

Now lets GO boys.
BELIEVE. YOU CAN DO BETTER THAN THIS.

They're whiffing on everything.

Page number: 16

I cannot believe what my eyes are seeing.
This is just....I don't have the words.

It has been an interesting season and enjoyable playoffs but I have to say, the season is done... I wish I could be more optimistic but I cannot see them pulling this out...

I feel comfortable even if we score 0 this period.

Way too easy. Getting hit with **** or pucks missing the net. Not good enough.
Not good enough.

So are people actually going to credit Rask for that sequence? Chara saved a 3-0 hole

It's painful to see

****ing pansies why isn't Backes playing . They deserve to lose

Honestly, blow it up this offseason.
This aging core is now responsible for losing TWO cup finals. It's so frustrating

wrong forum my guy

Not many scoring chances in 2nd. Blues playing 3-4 back is tough to get in with skills.
Get it behind them, skate and shoot from everywhere. Binnington is a rebound machine.
Get the next one than tie this up.
Do it.

no puck luck. at all. reminds me of 2014 against MTL

I don't give a damn. To play this ****ty style of offense is inexcusable.

Duck off prick

What happened to that fire from game 6?

Best chance this period is Kuhlman clapping it on net. Yikes.

It's like playing Nashville at this stage.

Come on guys, get some pressure, get some chances and get some ******* goals!

Is this game 7 SCF or game 23 in the regular season?

1 goal in the past 5 periods at home is unacceptable idc what Rasks save % is tonight. This offense is trash

Blues are collapsing the slot hard. Only when they have to. Which by my count has been once this period. Bruins aren't generating squat. Horrid puck movement. Not moving their feet

The Blues aren't a crap team and neither is Binnington. It's not easy to make it this far. They've earned it.
I feel entitled to nothing.
The top guns will either step up and take charge of this game or they won't.
Even if they do, it's still not a guarantee.
That's sports.

Cannot win without scoring lol Even Bruins teams of 70s vs them powerful habs teams fought harder

Man just imagine how some of those folks who forked out thousands for tickets.

You have to believe

Let's go fellas!!!

Page number: 17

Hop off Rask.

Seems like they're still playing nervous? Can't handle the puck for ****.

Do you think the hockey gods care?

One goal and we are right back in it. Stop the turnovers. Pucks on net, crash the net.

Damn man literally every bounce is hopping over our sticks, idk what to do when that's happening..

B's look like they shot their load in the first. #20 is about the only guy doing anything out there

BLOCKCHAIN
QUANTUM
AI
BUZZWORDS

Blues want it more... let's get one boys! Come on... I'm going start getting calls from everyone I ever known ... **** St. Louis. Tie this ********er up

I am starting to wonder if we have any skilled players offensively.

Skating it up alone each freaking time. No puck support, no alternatives, no pressure, no forecheck, no shots. Not looking good. Need a lucky goal here to gain momentum.

Yea I don't remember when that ranking changed but RoR was always playing 2nd fiddle to Bergy in terms of top 2 way centers.
Guess that's changed.

Lose 3 on home ice its bad

I am done with Pasta
he has been nothing but a turnover machine all playoffs long. and he was a no show against tampa last year too.
Done with him. Welcome to my **** list Pasta. nothing i hate more than someone oozing with talent and skill that goes ghost when they are needed

What's your secret?

love our 2nd periods.

Maybe we'll get a goal at the end of a bad period like the Blues..

Can't blame the refs or the dirty play of the Blues for this dismal appearance. WTH?!?!?!?!?

We only need one, then the roof falls in on St. Louis. Just one.

If you can't overcome 2-0 with a rookie goalie on the ice then you don't deserve.
This is a winnable game and there's enough time for it.
Let's go.

The Blues are playing much tighter defense than in the first. Such a pity we didn't take this game then.

havent gotten shutout all playoffs so this makes sense

My ignore list is swelling up faster than Norm Petersons liver.

I think sometimes it's easier for the road team in a game 7 because there's no added pressure of the crowd
But the B's HAVE to start playing with a sense of urgency .....NOW

Cannot score game 7 is bad WAKE UP

You wanna be the core that went 1 and 3 or 2 and 3... get it together now! Get one before this period out.

Page number: 18

It sucks watching their big time players show up all series and ours soil themselves.

Heard Marshand in an interview saying how the 2013 loss to the Hawks will always 'haunt' him. If the B's lose this game, that pathetic play at the end of period 1 will 'haunt' him a thousand times more.

Zero scoring chance in 2nd.

Puke inducingPlay!

Zero confidence in Heinen ... Zero

This aging core has made it to THREE Cup Finals. Since the lockout, only Chicago & Pittsburgh have done that.
Blow it up and enjoy spending the next decade being the Sabres.

Whatever

What a save by the big fella

Just get one and make them nervous...

Forget these tomato can shots on goal and backhands from the goalline. I'm all for looking for rebounds but not with some of these attempts. Oh, and STL is also keeping everybody to the perimeter.

Copious amounts of drugs or alcohol or both

One goal by the Bruins and the team and crowd will become alive....LETS GO BOYS

Heinen does literally nothing

Aggressive as a bunny

These guys had better reach into their jocks and find their b**ls!

Krecjj's played better as a goalie than he has as a forward this series.
Highest paid Bruin. $7.25M per...

Feels like 5-0

That'd be another "it's called Bruins" point.

Need one before the 3rd boys come on

It's just frustrating. The entire top line has disappeared.

It shows you how pathetic our offense is. These guys just can't score 5-5. To not even score a goal in the first two periods at home is flat out embarrassing.

LET'S GOOOOOOOO BRUINSSSSSSSSSS

Charlie Mac gonna get one before the end of the period.

Eay to see what Blues are doing.Clogging middle blocking shots JUST FEATHER IT THROUGH GET TO FRONT

We need a fluke bounce or something. Anything to jump start this offense

Page number: 19

They haven't earned much tonight. Fluked into it.

This is the Blues dream.
Get outplayed, take a 2-0 lead and sit on the lead for 40 minutes.

He will re-sign for 3+ million, too.

Blues haven't even committed much worth of a penalty.

Morphine?

The clock is moving fast in the second.

This game is going by fast.

Faith.

Might as well just pull Rask now

your getting shut out in your home building in game 7 of the finals.
you all should feel shame.

I don't think Will no matter how hungry is enough to win .

Both of these teams are stinking it up. We stink more

Are you ****ing kidding me Kuraly?

what the **** was that passs

Who the **** was he passing to

Wtf kuraly

Wanting to do too much. Just shoot

Really good passing

Bruins are playing like deer in headlights..Game 7 in St Louis been better

My god that pass !!!!!

OMG WHAT WAS THAT?

lmao sweet pass Sean

We're the black team guys

We need better passing.

Kuraly literally handed it right to them

Page number: 20

STL winning all the puck battles. I guess that will change in the third period.

Just like how they started the season.
Chokers

Is DK46 also on your list?

no one wants to be the guy tonight. Playing stupid all night

Every time I say that he scores so ...........

Team is tight...and only getting tighter.
Overpassing and turning it over.

****

LOL
I just don't have the words.

THE NET. GO TO THE ****ING NET

This is ****ing torture

A penalty maybe

i swear, its almost like they're scared to shoot... like they feel like they don't have the confidence that they deserve to be the one to put the puck on net...

the message Bruce should be saying right now on the Bench is stop the ole bull**** and shoot the ****ing puck.

C'mon Bruins, make something happen already.

Feels like an early 2000s playoff game against Montreal.

Most crisp tape to tape cross ice pass Boston has made all series
Straight to the other team

4th line weak tonight.
Victimized on the 1st goal.
Changed momentum big time.
Late goal gave them the cushion for playing 3-4 back and hope.
Let's go Bruins! Wake up!

Overall bruins have been the better team in my opinion. Need to get one here and play their game.

Like bills in the mail

You called the overdependwnce in the PP in MArch so kudos on that. Sadly :/

Wtf we could have got like 5 more passes in there before turning it over

I love this team but they are thinking too much shoot the f'n puck Kuraly °

If anyone ever needed a fluke bounce/goal, it's this Bruins team right now

Hey Fenway, can we move the ice plant from the 2nd floor to the 1st floor between periods? Jesus Christ this ice.

Page number: 21

Sloppy. So darn sloppy. Clean it up .

Say it!

They will make it 2-1 how much time left is the key

Without the moral victory

Not a banner game for the NHL...boring AF

Simplify the game. Go for rebounds. Krug will score this period.

GO BACK TO BASICS BOYS

Binnington.

Butch needs to wake them up and pass the smelling salts. No reason to be playing like this right now. Break up a line combo.

LETS GO

They getting to the front of the net and just STANDING there. Not looking for rebounds. Not looking for passes to tip.

You're not going to score many goals passing directly to the tape of the other team.

Bar down. Just RIP the ****ing puck. Holy hell you're not solving physics equations guys

I can't really agree with this. They shouldn't be in this position after that first period- they've had the better scoring chances thus far

They are going to have to start taking chances soon I'm afraid

It is inexcusable to be playing this way at home in game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

No words for that pass..

Came here to post this.
Feels an awful lot like 2004.

They need to just start shooting instead of passing ,,,,,nothing is working

I don't think the NHL wants this. Ratings dropping fast if it keeps up.
Bruins might get a PP... well, if they weren't the Bruins I suppose.

Berube lol Cannot lose to that goon

I don't want to hear for years how Jordan Binnington went into a gm 7 in an enemies barn and played the game of his life to bring STL their first cup.
Make him fold.

I still have faith

There's a reason people are pessimistic.
Couple games ago the bruins couldn't get anything going after down by 1 once the blues when into a shell, now they have to get 2.

We need just one. Cmon!!!

stop it

Page number: 22

The core is aging... After we lose tonight, Sweeney has to go into rebuild mode...

Feels a lot like game 5.

the entire team but DK has not been the turnover machine that pasta has in this run. Turnover Machine

Time for the top line to lead the way by manufacturing & converting on a slot chance. One at a time.

We're down by two in the second big whoop wanna fight about it?
Boys need to just get to work and win a shift, then win another. St. Louis is smelling blood here and is feeling it. We need to change that. Plenty of time left. Just get to work.

I may need to shower between periods (and change my underwear)

Feel bad for Rask. Wish this was 1-0 right now. This offense hasn't done anything to get back in this game.

I watched most of the 94-03 Devils games.
Blues are textbook right now. Berube played against those teams.
You break it with hard effort

Bruins need calm down

no net presence

Bruins during intermission will be preparing their "speeches "
For the media.
"Ugh we had a lot of players playing injured" blah blah

19-9 shots gotta do something

Yea I'm not gonna bother looking up the Stat again but I think they were around 15th in the league in 5 on 5 scoring.
I mean they still got to gm 7, but maybe this series is over already if they were better.

theyre trying to walk the puck in the net...

Carlo gets it move puck fast

Believe in the system, believe in each other.
Start doing the little things right again.
Get the engine restarted.

Wow WTF.. just shoot it right where he can see it. Dumb ****s

Hard to see us scoring.

A shot on goal. Baby steps. In game 7. Of the Final.

Bruins will probably score a late goal in the 3rd to keep you into it but it'll only be to make this loss worse.

How many times are we going to throw it across the net, ****ing get there

Hey what's the difference? They have done absolutely nothing in the 2nd period.

It's better to be here than to have been eliminated rounds ago, right?

starting to lose mine

Page number: 23

Been a long time since we scored a goal at home

Yeah get more fast skating pretty boy Heinens...

As ****ty as this is, if they can get one past him, one can envision flood gates opening.

well at least we won't be stuck with the last pick in the draft.

We just need one to get us going.

scoring chances don't mean **** in this game. Goals do. You have to finish.
There is NO tomorrow.

maybe if they try to pass the puck to Binnington. They obviously can't shoot on him

St Louis punking them. They don't have to do much but sit back and watching these jokers play hot potato with the puck.

Marchand 6 inches from the goal and makes a drop pass wtf

I need to calm down or I'm going to be in trouble

Can't get a bounce

lift. the. puck.

One shift, one bounce, one shot on net.
LET'S F#&@?£® GO!!!

NBC celebrates elbow to face.

Smart chips into open ice and moving your feet is gonna create opportunities.
But in a game 7, it's going to take herculean effort.

You'd hope after 11 days off they'd have the energy.

Goalies are the biggest difference in the game so far. This is painful to watch.

Playing at the ends of their sticks. Move your ****ing feet

F this game.

More likely that Dave Bolland or Jason Pominville sign at 6 m per

Yeah not good Binnington has been good when needed

Wow deflection right in front of the net and Binnington lucks out

No rebounds from Binnington this period

Did Pasta forget to tape his stick? I'm not even being sarcastic

You don't go into rebuild mode after playing GAME 7 OF THE STANLEY CUP FINAL.
Yes, the core is aging. But 37, 63, 46 all have years left on team-friendly contracts. You think about rebuilding when those contracts expire in 2-3 years.

They just need one before the end of the period...go into the 3rd down 2-1 and chip away

Page number: 24

Top line invisable

Can't see us winning this game. Team not mentally prepared.

I can't believe some of the scrubs who are going to skate around with the Cup on our ice. Christ.

Vince Dunn should've been lit up there, and the Bruins peeled away.
Soft ****ing bull**** hockey. Jesus Christ.

Going into Boston tomorrow for a workshop.
Gonna be a sad, sad day.

Pasta not even trying anymore. Skate to the puck! Where is the urgency???

Heinen flat out sucks

The most boring game 7 I've ever seen thank you NHL

A ****ing dummy could have saved that. ****ing shoot at the net not the music note boys.

Slewfoot by Sundqvist on Bergy

I ts going to be weird what DS will do in the Offseason he will have to retool this team

Not sure why I'm shocked they're playing like this considering I watched game 2...and game 4...and game 5...

Smell this mile away , score late pull goalie eat worms

Very good 2-0 period by Stl. Gave the Bruins nothing after being totally dominated in period 1.
Wake up Bruins.

Tough to win a cup with just a lethal PP. Almost pulled it off.

Of course Binnington morphing into Ken Dryden in a game 7.

Cmon guys

How are they not get these pucks in?

Can we please stop shooting it INTO Binnington please?

except when they are turning the puck over or making passes instead of shooting. Then i notice them A LOT

Going in the third period
With a 2-0 deficit... Hard to be hopeful

A rookie goalie schooling a 10 year vet in a Game 7 is simply inexcusable

Break the lines like we did in game 5. We had 8mins there to score 2. We scored 1.
We will have 20 minutes to score 2 and we will do it.

I've still got Binnington down with 1 impressive save. Just because he hasn't puked all over his sweater doesn't mean he's been amazing.

No traffic, no tips. Too easy when they get shots

Page number: 25

NBC is fully on that St Louis bandwagon. Listen to the verbage.

pasta not bringing it at all

Schenn with five false starts on that faceoff. Isn't tossed. Wins the faceoff.

Given what is at stake, this could be the worst hockey game in history

Bruins are just tossing TOTAL JUNK on the net, and wasting opportunities....
They either force passes or toss junk on the net...
Wasting chances big time...
Didn't score on the good 3-4 they had and now just tossing anything on net...
That isn't gonna get it done, not tonight.

Shuffle the lines

Well I guess the team that won 5-1 is not showing up tonight.

They're just getting beaten on the boards

Nice shot Patrice.

Hard to believe a game could be over in the first period when the score is 2-0. The bruins have done offensively to get back in this. They look confuse and tight as a doorbell.

This feels like an early 2000s Devils game

Yup hockey gods want Blues

Patrice you're killing me bro

This stage is to big for way too many Bruins.

He's an accessory. Like a tinted tail light.

1st line choking again

The blues are blocking everything too

Notice STL is RIPPING shots at net, missing mostly...but RIPPING them....
Boston...not so much. cream puff ****

I still think we got this

Binnington kept them in it and as Lou said, they're in vintage Devils counter punch mode.

Will this team be shutout will be the question in the 3rd period.

The top 6 failed during this entire series. Just inexcusable

The Bruins have pissed away a golden opportunity to win the Cup.

They are soundly handling us. Deal with it.

eveerything we're doing coming out of our own end is without purpose

Page number: 26

Word of the night:
resigned

Plz they gonna need a miracle of epic proportions in the 3rd period. They didn't show you anything that period.

Triple shift Johansson in the 3rd

Absolutely right
It is embarrassing
An "elite" goalie vs a wtv goalie

**** that ****ign period and this whole game

Heinen all day in the slot...

Bergeron line can kiss my a s s

Binnington has been the stud. Bruins best players have been absolute garbage ALL OF THEM

Rask should have been jeered for that last save

That was sad

I think we have to face facts, this just isn't our night... I think the team was over-confident about tonight because of the home ice advantage...Can't take any more of this so I am signing off... Goodnight everyone and congrats on a decent season...What could have been... sigh...

Almost worked...

Good lord. This seems inevitable.

Well this just feels insurmountable.

2 periods shut out in game 7.
screw every one of these guys. I am so pissed off right now.

Not YET

Not going to win if you don't ****ing score. Bruce better lay into these *******s

Coma inducing play

Lads, before the game I asked the checkout girl if she was getting out early to watch the game and I think she may have thought I was hitting on her. Pretty embarrassing.

Really needed one that period... Nothing going our way. Gonna need a miracle

Why lol

Suck ass period.
Team is gagging. Whiffing on shots. Flubbing passes.
20 minutes away from haunting disappointment.

Laughable.

Haha. Love th optimism but this is over. No chance they come back. They are cooked. They can't even get quality chances.

Nor is the goalie who gave up four that night.

Page number: 27

Heinen has such a weak shot
Sigh
Nice try by that line

Blues playing a huge trap. Won't be easy getting goals. Gonna get dirty.

Period just flew by. Can't end soon enough

Yea all these people saying just to shoot the puck.
Idk, some of these shots are just wasting possession

More amazing, alas, than our goaltending this evening.

Now I'm starting to worry

putrid period. Better win the 3rd! Go Bruins!!!!

Johansson and Coyle need to be out there most of the 3rd. They seem like they actually give a ****.

Fans there NEED to be booing. Not for anything but these guys NEED to wake the **** up! Maybe if they hear if from the fans!?!?!

Need a Torey Krug slapper. Playoff special

i'm sorry but Heinen is a head scratcher

Can't sense any urgency, it's really weird. No sense of desperation.

Feel like crying right now

I agree could care less if Bruins resign him for next season

It was so lethal that the league cut the opportunities in half, which makes it even tougher.

I really hope Bergy has another epic speech in him. Hell, I'd take Chara mumbling through a a speech like Kenny from South Park.

Game 5 replica score late pull goalie n pray...These guys are choking

I did not see a game 7 level of intensity that period"”especially when down 2 goals.

They pissed it away.

Bruins need just one to raise the roof
It needs to happen

It's over

Third line and Kuhlman the only forwards who really seem to care. DeBrusk at times but he just can't get much done.0

Last period of the season. It was a good run. Went further than I thought they would.

Heinen had all that room and shot it into him.
First line embarrassing. Second line invisible.
So many soft passes and flip shots. Losing my mind.

Page number: 28

Such an awful post.

overconfident so they dominated the 1st period? posts makes zero sense

That hasnt been a thing since 2013

Controlling the puck and out battling but the Blues have clamped down. The Bruins are frustrated.

Why shoot when you can pass and pass and pass and pass then lose the puck

What comes with luck goes away with bad luck.
We break down the top line and we will win this.

HOME ICE 2 STRAIGHT GAMES CANNOT SCORE IN 1ST OR 2ND .SIRRY BUT THAT IS SERIOUS CHOKING UNDER PRESSURE .

Well, you just know you don't play the entire game like they did in period 1.
They've got 1 got period left in the tank.
Score a goal and see what happens

I don't see it. They haven't done diddly poo in two periods . They will be even tighter in the 3rd period.

They had already lost two ,not sure why they would have been over confident being at home

At least it'll end quick. Period flew by.

I want a VW van!

Wtf is happening. Getting shutout in a game 7. Brutal

Dude it's Heinen

Seems like different names on the jerseys but the same outcome from so many years prior.
2011 must have had the planet's align or something.

One last period to glory. I still believe.
Just gotta break open the dam. One goal. Just 1. And then an all out assault and attack.

We will need a bit of puck luck.. Binnington sees every th8ng and Blues are playing a tight game preserving their two goals advance. They will need crushed the net and stop playing perimeter.

it's over

8 months, 82 games, 4 playoff rounds, all that time invested for it all to end like this? Don't let it happen

It's exactly what is happening right now

Stop being ****ing cute & throw everything to the ****ing net!

Some are drinking the NBC feed it seems.
Binnington had one damn good save first period, the rest was lack of finish by Boston.

1 PP after 2 periods (automatic call).
The NHL has spoken.

just need the next goal..get it and they will win

Bad 2nd overall. No scoring chance until that late Coyle line shift.
Gonna pull a come back from the ages in the 3rd.
Do it.

Tough team to be down by two goals . That 2nd period sucked

Page number: 29

It's Bettman's NHL Manifest Destiny wet dream of bringing hockey fever to middle America. He so badly wants Boston to lose he can taste it.

Bruins soft up front, no one goes to the cage. This is game 7!
Bodies and pucks to the net!
I do not recognize the team that Sweeney built as a Bruins teams. We look like the Sabres, Canucks, or some other creme puff crew.

Have Krejci or Pasta thrown anything at the net? Marchy and Bergy, what like 1 shot each on goal all game?

This is why blowing G2 sucked.
Series should be over already.

I really hope the mods are on alert- you just know the Blues fans are going to troll us big time.

Krug and Mojo seem to give a ****. Everyone else is just kind of there.

Tom
Brady was too cool
To wave flag tonight. I don't care if he wins 50 Super Bowls... I'll never forget.

All right folks 20 more minutes
Of potentially not winning the cup for many years
And as I write the commercial
With the song sound of silence
Is on .
The sound that msy be prevalent among us all in about 28 min or so

At one point do you try? So many floaters and year after year they say no more floating only for the team to be restocked full of floaters.

Pretty flat period considering they are down 2-0 in game 7. Hope they were saving it for a ridiculous comeback in the 3rd.

I was nervous out of my mind all week for THIS!?!?! This isnt on Rask. Same story as game 5. Getting shutout at home through 2 periods again. No excuses

different game if we got the first goal.
first line should get only blame on not winning the cup

In all honesty, has STL?
Dirty goals count the same.

Not at all.

The way we played that last minute in the offensive zone is the way we're going to have to play in the 3rd period. If we don't start off throwing the kitchen sink, i'm going to be very disappointed.

2nd Period is, yes.

Everyone ready for the 3rd period come back??

STANLEY CUP CANNOT SCORE ON HOME ICE

I believe in this team. I am confident they will tie this up and either win it and reg or OT

Maybe you should change your user name to GarbageTake.

Man I don't even know what to say... the blues aren't even playing good, they're just... winning.
Holding a team to below 10 shots after 2 periods is a win 90% of the time, who knows anymore.
I really hope our guys come back but I feel dead inside rn

One period, the Bruins are gonna come out and DO IT!

Yup. TBL getting knocked out first round was the gift of gifts. I fear we won't see the Bs in a SCF for awhile after this

They've came back from worse.

Give me the 3rd period we had on Sunday and we win this. You know what's at stake, play like you ****ing do
If you're gonna go down do it with a ****ing fight. I'm not seeing much of it so far

Page number: 30

I've never been more depressed in my life

And they should. The Bruins are laying an egg.

He's not even in the ****ing state. Who cares.
Ridiculous post.

They showed me nothing that period.
Super disappointing.
I guess STL just had to win the 1st period to win the cup.

We will see soon Bruins defence needs pinch like mad

Dude...you'll feel better when u realize it ain't so ****ing one-sided.....

It happened but the bruins have played like a bunch of stiffs. They haven't even gotten in this game. Now it will be even more difficult.

Is this not an exact replica of game 7 vs. Montreal in 2014?

Hey, if they somehow pull it out it'll be a hell of a story!

Poor showing for a game 7....

I am.
If there's a team that can come back in the third it's this Bruins team.

In the 2nd.
1st period was a total domination with an abysmal score.

I have and this is going to add to it.

i know this sucks right now and doesn't look great but some of you are such fuc**ng negative people omg. I see who you are

Probably one of the most pathetic Game 7s of all time. Only fitting it will be won by a team that has 10 shots on goal after two periods.

Sure...

How the hell did the mosasaurus know exactly where indominus rex would be?

I would like for Bergy to not suck in the third he's been awful all series long 5 on 5

With all due respect I haven't seen the blues deserve any penalties. Are the officials just supposed to make one up for Boston?

Desperate times call for desperate measures, I just put my Bergy jersey on for the 3rd. We got this.

Leaf, Hab, and Canuck fans, you mean?
The Blues barely have fans

Time for the team's leaders to lead during the intermission and on the ice in the third period.

2nd goal totally changed the game.

The cup winning team might average 5 shots a period. What an embarrassment

Page number: 31

Need a miracle to pull this off. Blues are in lockdown mode... but the Bruins are known this season to perform miracles!

Classy.
Take a shot at Bergeron.
Doosh

That Marchand play is a back breaker beyond selfish player

Whistle put away tonight
At some point, Bruins must pinch more aggressively
Stop projecting passes. Just shoot it at the net

I still can't get over Marchand leaving his man and peeling off for a change with less than 12 seconds left in the period. Unexcusably lazy and stupid, and might have been the nail in the coffin of their Cup dream.

Nope but they got a 2 goal lead after getting dominated and clogged the middle. It's frustrating.

I keep trying to hold on to that....classic Boston comeback.

Maybe Cassidy should roll just three lines in the third.

They keep showing unimpressive saves and claiming he is on fire.

D has to shoot from the point instead of passing into the corner

No, but it was over after Hiroshima and Nagasaki, which the Blues dropped on us in the 1st

Just disappointed.

YOu make it for this. Don't give me that bull****...

I've walked away from it. Can't watch any more. This sucks.

Feels more like Game 6 of that series, but the point still holds.

ROR is owning him

They dominated the first period. The second not so much

Yeah you deserve to lose. Not even one goal. This game would be interesting right now if it was 2-1 heading into the 3rd period.

I'm not giving up like some.
Bruins win this. OT won't even be needed.

Has he ever been in the arena? Seems like his whole team comes when they do things and he's off on a boat somewhere, probably.

Whatever. Right now I am so pissed I'm sure to be banned if the trolls come out in force and I don't care tbh, I am that upset.

Couldn't stay away, eh?

They should be playing the CBC feed in the Bruins dressing room. Trying to decide which player on Blues deserves Conn Smythe or if they can give Rask trophy being on losing team. Game is over for them.. We've overcome worse. Time make them pay. Season is on the line

They can't get anything it's getting blocked. Nothing there

Page number: 32

With one coming from center ice at the buzzer.

I still believe, they have the ability to come back.
It's only 2 goals, they'll come out like the first and win it.
4-2 bruins

Lets face it, he's a mental midget!

Rask really ****ing blew it. Hes done

All those chances in the first 10 minutes are going to haunt me for a long time if they don't come back.

Ok, time to channel the universe and send some seriously positive vibes to the B's.
You can thank me when Bettman calls Chara get his cup.

Basic simple hockey. No fancy passing, no turning down shots. Just put it on net and get rebounds. They've been there all ****ing series and these pansy boys refuse to fight for them. Dirty goals count the same.

So far
I've seen lots of crazy things in all the years I've watched hockey and all I can say is...
...it's not over til it's over

Is Wally even awake?

I don't wanna hear about dominating the first. This team just looks pathetic for a team playing a home . Frankly they look like the 2011 Vancouver Canucks.

Tuukka shouldn't take it. It's like kissing your sister.

OFFS

STL can play their D game in the 3rd period and still win.

This better be the greatest period we ever witnessed by a bruins team . Are they capable? Absolutely.

Sorry Rask can't score goals. Would be incredible if he could

LFG!

If you can't score 2 goals, you don't deserve to win the game. They have 20 minutes. That's enough time to score twice, but they need to show urgency and score quickly.

At least make it a ****ing game, boys, c'mon.

Don't call it a come back boys.

And It ain't over now

Yeah. I love marshy, but jeeeeeeezzzzzzzzz..watching that is really hard.

What the hell does Tom Brady owe the Bruins.
Seriously this is a stupid take.

yeah, can't believe he hasn't scored yet!

We got this!!!!!

Page number: 33

Poll: 70+% for Bruins
Message boards: I totally knew the Blues were going to be ahead starting the 3rd period of game 7

CRASH THE F****ING NET!

WHY? Because he was invited and chose not to come? You think Chara do the same?

is this how the Canucks felt

Unless Espo Orr or Neely can dress and play this team is done how do you lose 3 home games

Killed them

Too much passing in crucial spots

**** it, let's go. Make the greatest comeback in SCF history

I won't because they ain't.

exactly

Hopefully we can wake up for the last ten minutes.

You know what's funny? At the start of the game I was thinking I just don't think I can handle it if this game goes to overtime. Right now I'd give my right arm for overtime.

How do you dominate a period where you're outscored by 2? Oh my bad, because you have a ****.gosltender

From your lips to God's ears!

Yeah, it's a shame that he let down the team that has scored a whopping 0 goals in front of him.

There have been calls both ways missed.
Schenn charge is a notable one... if calls were wanted they'd be made. The NHL said no.
Incredible amounts of stick work and interference both ways.

They scored four goals . It's unlikely .

What's going on with Marchand? Guy looks dead out there.

I'll give my left so we've got a full collection, should be enough to get a few bounces

I mean, there's nothing happening so...

The Blackhawks scored two goal in a hurry once upon a time to clinch a cup...
Let's score three.

Was gonna say...

Score one to make it interesting and then not finish it.

If we can score by 10:00 I'll have confidence. Have that feeling that the first goal is the floodgate. We desperately need some momentum. Give them a seed of doubt and go from there.

In fairness, he probably can afford a pretty awesome boat. Like aircraft carrier sized.

What the F are you yammering about? Welcome to ignore.

Excuse me I'm thinking 2011. You are right. My bad.

They've had beyond no puck luck...it's been negative.
Had a bunch of chances that given a inch, go in. And a gave couple bad situations that go in.
Beating this trend is going to be tough.
I hope Cassidy comes up with something to get us more than the half dozen chances we're probably looking at in the 3rd.
Just get that first one...

Bruins gotta get one and this will be a different game....it'll wake the and the building up and Binnington will be worried

If the Blues do win this game god help the league as GMs will try to copy their outdated style . So much for fast paced skilled hockey .

Ugly period.

I need a goal in the first 10 minutes. Another 1 in the next 5. One late to crush their hopes.
Do it.

Its not over but their in game attitude needs to change. Its time to be urgent and treat it like you lose the damn cup if you dont

Stanley Cup on line on home ice and cannot score a goal.That is Billy Buckner material .Better get one early in 3rd

I am sorry but i am not gonna blame Rask for this crap. It happened but i will keep thinking they had plenty of time to get back in the game and they haven't even bailed the guy out. To be scoreless at home is downright pathetic. The blues are not doing anything special here.

It's also gonna put a chink in the legacies of guys like Tuukka, Bergy, Marchand and Chara.
Sure, they won a Cup, but they also blew two 2-1 leads in the SCF. And absolutely laid two eggs in deciding games on their home ice.
Crazy.

Please be right. Please.

Let's go

<plunk>

My mistake on that one. Your right

One day I dream.

WTF is with that silly a$$ shampoo commercial?!? Sickening, like the game.

i dont say it often. but they are done.
i actually lost all confidence after the first stl goal.

I'm sorry too. I'm sorry that he gives up two goals in 4 shots. DelfstedDthe ****ing crowd

I have faith the Bs will have a monster 3rd period.

Here is the FTP for the third period.
Enjoy, the Stanley Cup FTP!!!

So you're saying there's a chance

Who gives a **** about Tom Brady?
They could have Jesus Christ himself waving the flag and it wouldn't matter once the puck is dropped.

Seriously its messing my stream up

should have had TT be the flagman tonight

Need a goal by the 12 minute mark or it's pretty much over

We better make this period count. Otherwise...

Bruins better be the storm. Come out and get one early.
two goal lead is the worst lead in hockey.

We've seen worse. Let's have some ****ing faith

Quick goal here. 2 min in like Carlo's

Start the period with the goalie pulled.

Alright, enough of this ******* bulls**t! blues have 10 shots, 10! Come out and play like you did in the first, gaining the zone and generating chances, except this time ******* SCORE. Make your own ******* puck luck! Go Bruins!!!!

I feel so deflated.

And it's not even a mediocre game. One great/lucky deflection goal and someone else being left all alone in close.
No softie.
Eat your asses Rask haters.

One goal and the crowd and team are back in it

Win the third. Probably won't win the game.

Regular season Pasta please show up in the 3rd.

Early PP would be awesome right now

Bruins are coming back and winning this game. Time for the leaders to step up on this team. If any team can do it, it's the BRUINS!!

F Olcyk.
F St. Louis
F Olcyk again

so many new additions to my ignore list

Just ****ing slaughter them in the third. Come out and score three past their overrated goalie.

Leafs Bruins 2013 game 7. Just saying

Do or die. No excuses. Do you want to let this goon team skate around YOUR ice with the cup? If not then DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

GOTTA GET 1.
THEN CRACK THE EGG OPEN AND MAKE SCRAMBLED EGGS

maybe the fairweathers got stuck in the last GDT....

Page number: 2

Better come out flying here. No regrets!

I'm curious about scoring chances.
15 to 2?

Chara may have saved Rask from getting pulled in a Game 7

ATTACK SHOW SOME GUTS

show up top line. you have 20 minutes. this is on you.

Bergerons stick exploding off a great setup by Marchand was the **** cherry on the **** sundae
Let's go here score one every ten minutes bring it to OT

Hope to hell I'm wrong in the way I feel but either way, I'm done. It was nice knowing you all.

Bruins have 20 minutes to pull off a miracle.

Channeling my inner Dan Gheesling:
LET"S GOOOOO!

He wasn't? I thought he was going to be.

It ain't over till it's over

I've witnessed miracles happen in sport before, I'm hoping for another tonight.
20 minutes.
Give em hell.
I believe.

In this game?
Puck bounces off the crossbar into Rask and Chara barely scratches the puck off the goal line.
I don't know dude ... that's pretty lucky.
And most certainly game over had that one gone in.

Get 1 goal and the flood gates open

COME ON PLEEEEASE

EVERYTHING to the net !!!! We need a 20 shot period

That and if Jack Edwards was calling this game telling us how awesome we are we'd be up 7-1.

People that have given up aren't allowed to celebrate when they win 4-2

If that's Rask the entire board is touching themselves over how composed and positionally sound he has been. Rask is getting outplayed considerably, whether or not Binningtom has been "flashy".

sport has too much luck

Cdn broadcasters all in on which Blue should win Conn Smyth.
It ain't over boys. Far from it.
Here we go Bruins, Here we go!!!!

If we come back that could be the play of the game

this isn't doing my depression many favours.
why do i let a bunch of people i've never met, playing a damned game, affect me like this?

We are in game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals. Not a single one of us in October thought we would make it this far.
This is ALL gravy to me, watching my team still play in the middle of June.

I'm scared!

Roll three lines only.

Page number: 3

Technically Horton did score around then... but that was 3 goal deficit not 2!

I"m here but I have no confidence they can pull this out.

2013 didn't hurt so bad in retrospect. We had just won, we all knew Chicago was the better team on paper. You never want to lose a SCF, but I came to terms with that one pretty quick.

This is the type of season that will have me thinking about it for years.

I'm of the mindset that you essentially go all out attack at the 15 minute mark.
Who cares if you lose by two or by twelve?
Go down swinging.

Blues are gonna go into a shell even more than the 2nd period.
They're gonna dare the Bs to shoot through 5 guys.
Only way I see us scoring is on a deflection or bad rebound.
If we don't score in the first 5 minutes...I think that's all she wrote.

He has sucked most of playoffs in my eyes.They carried him alot.This 3rd though he could change it all .lol

Need a 28-3 comeback

O\U on the first bruins shot in the first ten minutes of the third period
3. 5

We're a third period team.
Right?

15 to 1.
Rask has allowed 2 goals on 1 scoring chance.

Let's see at what point they activate desperation mode. Risky, but it probably needs to be ASAP. That way we also be able to get a penalty the refs really cannot ignore.
I am predicting that we will get one more PP and have to make it count.

I think I've said "˜that figures' 10 times already tonight.

Didn't they do that in the first?

When does the Boston riot start?

Don't go. Please

This is it boys. Its yours if you want it.
GRAB IT. THIS IS YOUR MOMENT. SEIZE IT

I'd be willing for the Celtics to relocate forever if it meant the Bruins came back to win this game

Bruins gotta get one and this will be a different game....it'll wake the and the building up and Binnington will be worried

Time for Rask to make up for the first period goals and come through huge in the 3rd, because it's time for the Bruins go to full offense. I don't want to see the 4th line together rest of the way.

will they play Gloria for the blues when they raise the cup on the spooked B

Blues can smell the Cup.
Almost impossible to play well against that.
Should be 1-0. Second goal was a colossal blunder by 63.

Shoot n find out .If puck is in there end its a start

Who wouldn't here? lol

20 minutes boys. Need a huge period or this one is going to sting for a loooong time.

Page number: 4

It really doesn't matter

20 minutes to play. if i am sweeney I am watching close. Anyone takes a shift off or puts in less that 100% and I am looking to move them in the offseason. if you can't show heart in game 7 of the cup final i don't want you on my team

All i care about is full effort for the next 20. nothing else matters.

A quick goal by the boys would go a long way...

im with you. bruins ink on my skin means them above all

Somebody save me from myself. Lol

Hard job to blame rask but it's easy to say bennington is the MVP of this game so far

Had to go for a short walk outside during the intermission- was disgusted. Now it's time to cheer for the comeback

Awesome 1st but two bad plays.
Very bad 2nd.
Bruins need at worst a very good 3rd to give themselves a chance.
Do it.

Any "fan" that's given up already better not be here when we win. Roll with the ****ing punches. Wait 20 minutes to say it's over.
Doesn't look good but it's sure as hell not over. Just like it wasn't when it was 4-1 against the Leafs. Just like when it was 28-3. There's a huge doubt but it's not ****ing over. If you can't give this team 20 more minutes without being an edgelord and declaring "it's over" then get the **** out and stay out.

That is for sure but a game is 60 mins not 40 bud.

If Bruins lose this ...it will be 3 straight home games in the finals
Disgusting

when was the last time the bruins had an odd man rush not on the pp?

Hilarious!

Can I just get an early goal and make this a game? At least make it interesting. For a game 7 with a lot on the line this team has played this game almost like a regular season game.

Really thought the narrative would have been different tonight. I can't believe how many of our players have **** themselves so far.

We got this

To be fair ... we didn't have any in the second period.

I agree

This is the type of season that will leave bruins management thinking they have a good enough team to be here again.
And that is the worst part of it all.

There shouldn't be one. Disappointment, scorn, disdain for the Blues perhaps...
But a riot? Not today....

Just score!

Well, this is it. Potentially the last period of the season. It's been a fun ride. I didn't think they'd be here, but here there are. Backs against the wall. It's unlikely to win, but that's why they play. That's why we watch. Time to push hard, change the puck luck and put the fear in them of blowing it. Can't score two goals with one shot. Start with one. They can do it. The blues are a strong team, even better with the lead. But they aren't invincible.

Page number: 5

which would mean they didn't deserve it

Should've been 20 minutes ago

No softie but we needed a save or two from Rask in the 1st, didn't get it.

Probably not going to get one this period with StL sending four guys back.

Who made you the arbiter of fandom?

Once again we've scored zero goals and it's Rasks fault . Wow

Way too many people taking this sparts game to seriously.
It's just a game folks. We as Bruins fans are not going to be rounded up for execution tomorrow morning.
Yet a lot of people here are acting like thats exactly whats going on.
Its a sport, its entertainment.
Take a breather and get some perspective.

LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Everyone remember all those games that the Bruins started quickly and got the lead only to then reign in their attack and play passively while protecting the lead? And their opponents stormed back?
Yeah, the Bruins need to do that RIGHT NOW!

Just like the 2014 debacle against that weak Habs team.
At least we got Pasta the next draft as a consolation prize...

Ouch.
I didn't even think of that.
They are going to approach next season thinking a couple tweaks put them over the top.
Barring some other team bending over for us in a trade, should be the last shot they get with this core.

WE GOT THIS
BELIEVE

God seeing that Cup sucks.

Yip

If they can't get a couple goals on a rookie goalie this period then they don't deserve it. Plain and simple.
Winnable game. Go and get it.

You were not there for the vote.

I did
Pretty pathetic to give up on the team down 2-0 after two periods.

Well, you got 2. Literally.
And that was it. LOL.

D men need to pinch in seriously this period and get the puck on the net

Game on!!!

Let's see what this core is made of.

Blues are a great road team.

Jack Ryan sucked.

Unbelievable isn't it

Both times I've watched my teams lose in the Finals (Bruins in 2013, and Sharks in 16) didn't feel at all like this will feel like if they lose. The Blues play the most garbage style of hockey, and the league has allowed it the whole playoffs. Now they get a game 7 where the turtling team with 10 shots through two periods is 20 minutes away from winning it all.

Let's ******* GO BRUINS!!!!

Page number: 6

I had hope going into the 2nd...had to take a shower after that putrid period and have a little more hope now than 20 minutes ago.
Let's go Bruins!!

We also needed a goal and we didn't get it.

Just one. Then blues implode.

It's over if they don't score a goal in the first 10 minutes.

True. It is very difficult to best the Blues sitting on a lead. Sadly.
But it can be done.

Too many celebrities in the crowd, that's why they are losing.

Fine ...but to win 3 in a row
Nah!! Bruins underperforming

PP would be nice

start not looking so good.. Same ****. Blues will just sit on a 2-0 lead.

The easy road to the finals helped the Bruins immensely. If they think it's going to be like this every season it will be a long while before the bruins are back here again.
Time to start looking at our current top 6 and how they can improve it in the offseason.

Time to see what the guys are made of. Leave it all on the ice. TAKE THIS GAME OVER!

Do Denis Leary and some Bravo randos really count as celebrities?

So hard to score against the blues when they have the lead. They get a stick on everything

Plz score. Give the fans something to cheer about.

I wish Sweeney had taken a flier on Binnington. He'd be watching from the bench right now.

The token PP for the blues is coming.

What a save by Binnington!!!!

They're losing because they're playing like its a game in December against the Coyotes.

Bruins running on fumes. Amazing they did so well. Awesome team.
Next season I would play Bergeron the way the Raptors play Kawai Leneord.

Cmon boys

Shove your holier than thou **** up your ass

Totally agree

Seeing multiple posters that lecture all season about the negativity and bad fans. They gave up by the first period. What a joke.

Page number: 7

Does the ice suck or is it me

The ice always sucks

They look so flat...no fire.

3 unforced give aways by Kulimen on that shift

Waaay underperforming.

It sucks for both teams so let's not go there

HELP HIM OUT FOR GOD'S SAKE!!!!!

Aaaa

Tuukka standing tall

Doc can't count.

This ice is pure garbage, and should get lots of attention this offseason.

Playing hard...just not well.
Our defense truly sucks

Big save

TUUUUUKKKKKK!!!
NOW BUILD OFF IT

Nice save by tuukka

The perfection line has proven they are a great regular season line but can't get it done in the playoffs.
i look to make changes if you keep all three guys they should only play together on the power play.

Is it the ice or the bruins sucking till this point?

Huge save tuukk

I'd actually forgot Tarasenko even played for STL. He's done squat

Christ help Tukka out

Panic setting in.

Cut the bench. I don't want to see Kuhlman, Nordstrom or Acciari.

Time flies when you're suffering

Next season's 50/50 raffle will go towards ice costs.

Bruins going for it

Page number: 8

Shots 24-10

That's two blatant penalties ignored.

Help tuukka out please

Crowd seem a little more lively

make some calls for christ sake. you affect the game by putting the whistle away.

5 minutes in and nothing .

Kuraly just randomly throws the puck to nobody a lot huh.

we love blind passes to no one

When they call the next penalty on us I am literally going to have an aneurysm

Trap plus awful ice plus no penalties is going to make this one heck of a difficult comeback.

Whistles officially swallowed.

HOW ARE YOU WASTING PASSES WITH GUYS WIDE OPEN IN FRONT!

Thorwing blind panic passes.
They're getting way better scoring opportunities.

It's getting late.

Refs not calling a thing- hate the nhl officials

Ea

Bruins playing this like a late October game.

Tick tock you dumb mother ****ers

Yeah, they're not going to call any penalties this period. That's clear.

Obviously not calling anything this period I guess

They literally won't make a call

Charlie MAC blatant trip

Where the hell are the refs?

Who said isn't it's one or the other?

Just the soft sounds of this team sucking the life outta me.

Gotta get to the puck first and start winning puck battles boys

Page number: 9

just can't catch a break tonight

if we get shut out i am going to lose my ind.

This sucks

This is a ****ing disgrace.

Our best scoring chance is a bad-angle weak backhand wrister right into Binnington's pads.
That ain't gonna get it done.

Crash the net.

Can I get a replay of Charlie going to the net? I'm the biggest "let 'em play" guy but trips are off limits in my opinion

STOP THROWING **** FROM THE CORNER ON NET! ITS NOT WORKING!!!!!

B's need a cheap goal here...bad bounce, deflection or something weird

why even have refs for game 7. whats the point

Just not good enough.

They can't even get sustained pressure.

Put Krecji with Top wingers please

Seems like we've been missing a guy in the slot all game

Come tf on

They're making Binnington look like Holtby.

Excruciating.
I'd imagine the NHL would want a come back because the game quality has dropped since they had the lead. Clearly not.

Well the ice won't change but
Maybe the bruins can

OH YEAH , that's a trip.

Fat lady warming up

Bend but don't break never works for Boston.
It better not work for STL

I hate this. Hate.

One of our own tripped him.

Zero quality shots.
Backhander flips and no-aglers.
Gotta make Binnington work for it

So disappointing.
What a chance this team blew.

Ice is garbage again... no excuses for this. You raise ticket prices every year... invest in better cooling equipment.

Page number: 10

For the oldtimers - is this what 1974 felt like?

So true - frustrating

ANNOYING!

It's obbious they are not going to call sh**, which makes the task all the more daunting.

Because they keep throwing blind shots on net from the corner or throwing blind passes all over and just keep turning it over....
They gotta be smarter. Theyre hoping for some lucky **** goal, its not gonna happen

The team kinda died after the second goal.

I don't want to hear and I'm not going to listen to any whining about the refs, the ice, injuries or anything else. They are playing like **** and that is the only reason why they are going to lose this game and the series. Period.

**** the Blues.

They can't even get it in deep. What a ****ing joke

Yea. Ever see team blow a two goal third period lead in game 7 Stanley Cup?
Chicago in 1971 ?

NO WORDS FOR THIS EFFORT

Kind of. The game is so incredibly faster now - but not as heavy

Bingo. They no showed.

This isn't okay. The bruins don't deserve to lose this

Tick tock boys.

So many ****ing turnovers

He asked if the ice sucks tonight. The ice always sucks at the Garden.

I wanted him with Coyle and Johansson.

Now I know how Vancouver felt with their lame performance against us. This team so looks lame tonight in front of the home crowd.

Last chance this core will have and you are getting shutout at home. Game 5 all over again.

This is pathetic. No fight at all

Dude the Blues equipment dude looks exactly like Marchand wtf.

Zero penalty calls that aren't mandatory. It's pathetic and it still angers me even though I've been whining about the officiating in this league for over a decade.
I'm trying to think of another league that just decides to change what and what isn't a penalty in the final game of the season.
You even have the refs at least twice this game telling Bruins players to get up off the ice or to leave the area lol

God I cannot believe it is going to end like this. Don't they have any respect for themselves????

Page number: 11

Somebody needs to just run Binnington, get some **** stirred up, because whatever this is isn't working

Still not seeing enough push. Spurts

Agreed...this is a post of reason.

Blues are playin ultra conservative too, tough to do anything

It's that POS Olympic machine and the crappy system that Jacobs cheaped out on in 1995...

Coyle keeps losing the puck

Coyle has Pasta disease

Second whiffed pass by Coyle.....sigh

It should be attempted murder to televise trap hockey.

8 minutes gone just like that

They're actually playing like he's Holtby.
Everything into his chest and pads. Lots of shots, but very few quality chances.

Coyle whiffs again. Talk about peeing down your leg

Ugh

I thank God everyday that my son isn't into sports

Step behind all night

The people doing that have been doing it all season. It's their raison d'etre.

They only are since being down 2-0.
Totally dominated the 1st.
Easier to defend. Blues would also look like crap down by 2. In fact, they are even leading by 2.

Bergeron has been a ghost

The way they are playing they absolutely deserve to lose like this.
This is embarassing.

CRASH THE F***** NET!!!!

Did somebody put Vaseline on all our sticks?
Never seen so many fans...

you just knew all those missed empty nets at the beginning of the first were gonna haunt them

All over.

That's game.

Lol aaaaand that's the killer

Page number: 12

Yep. They were in control of the game. All the air was sucked out of them.

**** off

meh forget it

**** THIS ****IGN SPORT I'M NEVER WATCHING HOCKEY AGAIN

That was it. We're getting shut out

Another insane chance, another zero.

Welp, that was it.

That settles that.
They're getting shutout tonight

Yeah, game over.

Snake Bit

Yup, not tonight.

That sums it up. Just not gonna be our night.

Take notes Rask, you ****ing loser

THAT JUST SUMS IT ALL UP RIGHT THERE

Wow.

It's just Binningtons night

They're not scoring

Lol. They're not scoring.

That was like Tim Thomas esk

BiNnIngtOn iS jUsT gEtTiNg LuCKy

Bruins wiff to shot ratio has to be like 3 to 1

This one is over

This is so bad whoever runs the Bruins IG isnt even posting the score after each period

Not happening

There it is. It's just that game. Binny went Holtby

Page number: 13

All over.

Making a hero out of this ****ing loser

That's it..O V E R

Wake up Nordstrom.

There's one for the history books

Lift the god damn puck

If Nordstrom can't score after that move then we're in trouble

Welp...that does it.
NOt gonna score.
That was actually a nasty save. And that's what we needed out of Rask tonight.

Not our night

Ugh that save, game over

Just cannot execute on easy goals.

I wonder if anyone will remember Binnington say two years from now

Full shell. 5 guys collapse to block everything.

I guess we know who's getting the Smythe.

He better be eviscerated for his massive choke.
Time to blow up the alleged perfection line.

Can pretty much go to bed after that save.
Not our night.
This is why you don't **** the bed in game 5s and leave no margin for error

THE BOSTON CANUCKS!

Cut the bench.

We couldn't buy a dang goal. Done and dusted. They might score one but it will all be too late.

Sometimes hockey is spelled G-O-A-L-I-E

THEY WILL IN ST.LOUIS FFS.

Pull Rask now.

Rask peaked too soon. Nowhere near the level he was at in the 2nd and 3rd round in the Cup finals.

Im just waiting for goal 3 so I can shut this off

Team ends the year how it began.
Epic chokers.

the rookie goals won this game for the Blues. plain and simple. He was a machine.

Page number: 14

Binnington's a 1 hit wonder.
F'king NHL man.

what a ****tastic game

Need a miracle

I feel so dead inside

No whistles this period?

Terrible ice

PITIFUL!

You should be banned for that post.

you're generally a good poster, but this is really uncalled for.

Where was this push in the 2nd period?
Binnington is 100% the Conn winner. He stole this game.
And stole it from Rask.

GMe is over

I'm tempted to agree with you
For what might be the first time

Congrats STL. What a choke job by the forwards.

Game over.

Got your wish

This game went from a great first to just simply terrible hockey.
Casual fans turned it off an hour ago.

Goose egged

Pointless goal, the game was already over.

**** hockey

Its like reverse 2011

There it is. Goodnight everyone

Of course that **** scores. Headhunting piece of **** ****

That should be the ball game.

Goodnight

Worse team won

Ok... now it's over...

That's that

Nail in the coffin

Ask and ye shall receive.

And once again our goalie can't make a save

I give up. its all over.

Thats game

Schenn, of course.

They're going to go down the same road the Canucks did after as well.

Good night, Jim Kyte.

that's that. I am not watching any celebration

Junk

Ballgame.
Cool season guys. Didn't expect to make it this far.

Its officially over ......so so sad right now

No ****ing way.
Just disgusting.

They just didn't need much offensive zone time tonight.

**** this pathetic choking core and goalie

What a Sack of **** this team is.

Probably not cuz he'll be a backup somewhere
Or ahl

You're better than this.

There is nothing likeable about this Blues team.

Story of the night. Control the play all night long and give one up on their first chance. What a ****ing sin.

Deserve to lose. What a complete ****show of a game.

Just ****ing headshot all their players with the last 8 minutes of the season
**** the Blues

BENT OVER AND ****** AT HOME: NICE.

McAvoy looked lost.

What a bass ackwards game

CASSIDY F U REFUSED CHANGE LINES..SHES OVER

May as well roll out the Cup.

Now ......it's Over
Not the B's best effort

So guys it's been real.

Yup, 2011 all over, except we are the Canucks. ****

Choke city!
This team is a bunch of chokers. Lost 3 of 4 on home ice to a team you're better than.

And that's that. I can't watch anymore. Sorry peeps

This comeback is going to be legendary

Really ?

Me neither

They blew it big time... should be disgusted with themselves

Im out. Way to get 'perfection line'. What a series.

Sucks to suck

Well Red Sox are mediocre this year.
Pats open camp in 6 weeks.

Embarrassing display

Out goaltending by a stiff goalie its called Bruins

This is disappointing but I find it hard to be upset with how this year went

welp that all folks
dont know when were gonna get a chance that good again

Jesus Christ

Bergeron will always be one of my top 3 favorite bruins and i don't know if he's hurt but, to me anyway he's been beyond quiet not only in this series but entire playoffs. And the "perfection line" can put put 20 points each game for all i care in the regular season. Post season though...

Who is more lazy backchecking Marchand or Pastrnak?

we have the legs but not the sticks

Trash and embarrassing effort

Binnington has been great and they just haven't been able to buy a goal. It happens. It sucks, but it happens.

Page number: 17

Trade the lot of them

Perfect road game by the Blues.

Leave it up to the bruins to lose to a team from St. Louis. Man they have been pathetic.

10 year rebuild, boys.

Of all the missed opportunities, this one will likely be the most painful. Bruins were the better team in Game 5, got screwed. Better team in Game 6, won. Better team tonight and just got stoned.

Credit to hoewer said we're Vancouver in this series. Eerily accurate

needed to score on only pp..had the chances

Glad I didn't drop 3k for this hott steaming mess

MARCHAND NEEDS TO LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND REALIZE THAT THIS WAS HIS FAULT TO BEGIN WITH.

I'm outta here. Great season everyone here. I can't read anymore

I hope they did. The NHL deserves terrible ratings for this game.

One goalie has numerous big saves tonight

Rask back to being old Rask

What's it feel like to have your best players actually play like your best players? Can anyone tell me?

Without tuukka we would be here.
The blues don't deserve this...

Binnington after a mediocre playoffs will be remembered for this. Rask for his great playoffs will be remembered for this.

Perhaps now we see the cheap PP.
Do they have more than 12 shots yet?

Its gonna be brutal. This team will be awful for a while

Talk to you all in the offseason.

I am ashamed and embarrassed.

Well that was disappointing

Massively disappointed in this performance.
Great season...but also a season of unbelievable missed opportunities.
Laid eggs thrice on our home ice.
I laugh at all the suckers who dropped their savings on this stinker.

Strange that the team with most playoff experience looks like it's their first playoff game

Can't blame the goalie if you score 0 goals.

And that is game.. great defensive effort by st.louis.

Page number: 18

Pretty embarrassing game. I was still optimistic after the first but the team just curled up and took it from the Blues the rest of the game. So much talent and they just didn't perform.

The rookie goalie did what needed to be done to win the big game. he stole the stanley cup final in his rookie year. amazing.

This sucks

Should've tripped Schenn there

Pathetic

Never showed up after that second goal . Sad . Blues D is something else I'll admit

Classic Bruins tradition of losing to ECHL tier goalies.

Time for Marchand do do something stupid

Yep, they withstood the early storm, and then capitalized on their chances.

One of them must go.

At least get your draft updates on Twitter so you don't give the NHL any of your extra money

Hell of a season.
Awful ending.

I can't wait to shut this garbage off.

Rebuild is going to be long and is going to suck. People who think otherwise are in for a rude awakening. Their core is old. The forwards of that core like Bergeron and Krejci did diddly **** when it mattered.

I tip my hat to the Blues. They sh** big tonight, when it counted most. Can't watch anymore.

Pasta needs milk

About the time where Marchand does something stupid

Well, we need a scoring winner on the 2nd and third lines.
We needed that in October and still need it now this summer.
Will be interesting to see how the summer plays out.

What a ****ing joke. Typical Tuukka 2 goals on 4 shots in the first period to let the team down from there

Here come all the trolls

My camera has a slight dent

Not good enough to win a cup.

Gotta be one of Pasta's worst games of the season

Well, barring a miracle, Vancouver now has the longest cupless franchise

Do you all think we will be able to hit the net next season?

This feels very similar to game 7 of '11. Probably going to be same Score too...

Page number: 19

That was me with my hat ten times tonight

That's it. I am going to bed, I won't sleep but if I stay here I'll do something I will regret.

Really wish this game had been in St Louis

Binnington got lucky.

Way to lead Bergeron, Chara and Krejci

our no show top line killed us. No surprise.

I'm still mad at BM63 for missing the wide open SHG in G2

Think that one raised Heinen's shot power average there

I can't believe that we're losing this game. You talk about a blues team falling into a barrel of sh#t and coming out smelling like roses

Misdirected anger?

Better team how? They have been diddly poo in this game. I don't think none of those shots where difficult to stop.

pasta bumped off the puck like he was gnat

Embarrassing take

McAvoy caught watching the play in the corner and not looking at who's coming in. Blues defensive game is on point tonight, they definitely want this more and it's showing. What a story.

Did someone just say rebuild?
Omg shut up with that.

This has been the most frustrating game ever. We are totally outplaying and out-chancing them. And somehow are down 3 freakin goals

Marchand had a bad finals.

Ohhhh great tva sport is already playing gloria .......

After seeing what the Hawks did in 2013, I wont say its over until the horn sounds.

But its going to take heart. Lets see how it goes.

You lose 3 of 4 at home in the finals you don't deserve to win.

Two blown 2-1 leads in the SCF by the core of this team. Followed by choke jobs in the series clinchers on home ice.
SMFH.

they really shat the bed at home game 7 cup finals
they really pulled a vancouver

Just like 2013.

Blues top guys scored goals tonight.
O'Reilly, Schenn, and Pietrangelo.
We needed more from our leaders.

Pull Tuukka ,not his fault but they will blame him.

I dunno. Blues scored on like every shot they took.
Hockey sucks

I get that but this was a golden opportunity the way it all played out and they blew it.

well thats a win

Page number: 20

Never thought I would question Bergerons dedication, but damn has he been putrid all Finals and most of the playoffs.

To carry play all game and not score a single ****ing goal.... ya, binnington is good, but not that good.
This is on the bruins forwards 100 %

They say God doesn't care about sports, I guess we'll see

Toronto is longer

Losers they are ...true losers
Everything they've done to get here means 0

Tough to win when you can't score for 55 minutes. Just wasn't our night.

Losing to the St. Louis Boo-Hoos"¦..Disgraceful!!!!

i wanna hear about broken bones from the first line.
If its sprain this, sprain that, i wont give a **** and someone has to be moved

Worst player on the ice.

Such an awful post.

how you gonna blame the goalie when you get shutout ****ing lol

Chara's mouth hanging open sucking air as he skated back to the bench after the 3rd Blues goal summed up this game perfectly.
CONGRATULATIONS to the 2019 Stanley Cup Champions, the St. Louis Blues!

Pastrnak and Marchand soft as baby ****. Trade one of them in the offseason.

Boston played well. Binnington beat the Bruins tonight.

That's ridiculous. The goalie took the team out of the game. It would have been a different game had rask stood tall.

Can we hit the reset button and go back to that 1st pp?

I'm sorry but boy wonder was a no show when we needed him most. Roast his ass for once

Well, we now all know how Canucks fans felt eight years ago. I'd really love to just get a goal, so at least they aren't shut out.

Oh, the irony. They just played "We Care a Lot" by Faith No More.

Cassidy should have brought backes in for inspiration. This hurts guys but love you all.

Well it's hard to win when you don't score a friggen goal.

We can hate the blues all we want but this team deserves to not even touch the cup with their lame ass performance . They haven't been able to put two great games together.

Marchands defense and Pastrnaks lack of offense cost them tonight

3 out of 4 losses at home is NOT going to get it done. It's not only been Binnington. He was great in 5 & 7, but only 1 goal? That'a s shame. I am not even going to blame the refs. This game is legit and we get outplayed 5on5. That's the story of this series.

Blew a big opportunity. Bruins are a highly skilled team losing to a crap team with a good goalie.
Wont get this chance again. Lightning, Leafs, Jackets, Sharks, Knights, etc.............will all get better
Very disappointing

Game like this makes you wonder how ridiculously luck based team sports can get. Marchand scores on that glorious chance in the 1st period and we very well might be in lead right now.
What's worse than getting shutout is that St.Louis is not even the best team Bruins have faced these playoffs.

they sure did.
i still blame pasta and marchand mostly.
no shows all finals

Page number: 21

They play well with the lead, that's why the B's needed to score on the PP in the first

outclassed this game, out coached this series. Nothing against Cassidy, just the truth
I can't believe they're going to ****ing lose this

HE ALREADY DID YOU MEAN SOMETHING ELSE STUPID!

I have said for a long time ... I wish the players cared as much as the fans do . I am crushed .

Not blaming him but it's a fact that Binnington has stepped up tonight

Ditto Jean *******.

3 goals on 1 scoring chance tonight, yes Suukka has been great.

Pretty well done with the NHL, such a poorly run league. Going to scale back my coverage of Bruins game from 82 to about 30, no longer worth the investment of my time.

Blues were the better team this series. Boston had a hot goalie, that ended.
Time to trade some people and get some size that has determination to win gritty games.
Bruins skill approach sux.

I wonder what our $6Million Diamond Dave Backes is thinking just about now.
This lost Cup is squarely on SweeNeely.

He's my favorite bruin ...however if they get rid of him
I could care less
And that goes for every single
Bruin player(loser)

Blues earned it, too anyone that thinks big bad and tough don't win...its 2019... your wrong. Get tougherbigger and meaner if you wanna win

Actually I think they are happy they won once. That burning desire is not there as it used to be.

;9The rest of my family all went to bed disgusted. I'm the only one holding out hope......

The most underdog team won the biggest underdog playoffs in history. Fitting.

ROR 4 goals this final.
Bergy still nowhere to be seen.

I understand.
I'm not blaming the NHL for them losing. Just saying in general

It's easy to sit on a lead, especially a two goal lead
If the Bruins scored first it would have been this easy. That does not mean it was a well played game or the Blues earned it.

Nahhh man i held him in the highest regard! Welcome to our boards sweety

Proud of this team.

Whatever you want to call it he's the difference in this game

The horse ran good out of the gate half way through.... nothing

In 2011 we had the most Canadian players in the playoffs. This year St. Louis does and we only have 4.

Just get off the ice. Disgraceful

Wow some in this thread are overracting- and I understand it. This sucks. But I'm going to like 88-37-63 as a $20 million line next season.

**** off

Page number: 22

That's saying something, with his loooong list of playoff eggs. He is just so puppy sh** soft.

Sure am glad I did not pre-order the video as I saw it on Amazon.

If the ice was good tonight this is a different game. Defensive effort by the Blues has been great, but the bouncing puck has killed us tonight.

Go ahead Pasta or Brad. Score a meaningless goal now.

I have come to expect it. Ever since they won the cup in 2011 it's been downhill in the biggest of spots.

Lmao!!!! This loss is on the forwards who **** their pants. Krejci, Bergeron, Pastrnak, DeBrusk, and Pastrnak.

Let's wait until we hear the injuries before we crucify anyone.

I'm throwing in my cap. Good ride boys congrats to the boys in blue and white

You're proud of this??

I know

Hockey can be a 50 50 game these days. We owned the offensive zone time of possession but they just had the breaks tonight with little zone time.

Rask wasn't money ...
Blues get their unsong heroes scoring
An that's that

yup keep passing back to the worst opportunity. Idiots

This is why people want to be a goalie.
You can single handily win a game.
It could easily be 5-6 goals Bruins.
When it comes down to one game...anything can happen.
Oh well.

Officially shut the game off. Watching the office now.

I am too. They came out strong and Bennington is the difference

and they desperately needed him to show up

You can if he gives up 2 goals on the first 4 shots he sees and single handedly destroys any momentum you built up over a dominating first period.

What a choke but with watching the Patriots win so much maybe watching a loss isnt all that bad
Still stings

He's been pretty bad all through these PO's, just extra stinky tonight. But he isn't alone, it's easier to list the ones that didn't stink than the ones that did tonight.

First line should be ashamed.

That's why neither team wanted to leave it to a game 7. It's a cliche, but anything can happen.
Everything broke right for the Blues tonight.

Too soon for that crappy agenda.

Absolutely.
That was game right there. Some just didn't want to admit it.
Honestly, if we score on the opening PP, we probably win the Cup. But that's what happens when your whole team plays tight and panicked.

REaching for pucks instead of getting involved. Afraid to get hit etc. sickening!

feel bad for rask. not his fault we lost but also didnt have a good game. this game probably just destroyed everything he did this postseason.
top 6 can go kick rocks. this is their fault. Bergeron was ****ing awful. not even addressing pasta

Page number: 23

Fair. Sorry to lose my **** quoting you lol
Not a good night over here

****ing A

Its all about winning, Rask will go down as a loser in Boston. He was great this playoffs but he was garbage tonight end of story. Not his fault we didn't score for him but winning is what is all about.

This one is on Bergeron-Marchand-Pastrnak... no one else
0 ES goals from that line is unacceptable

The forwards?

Lmao at the Backes posts. Thanks for lightening the mood

Great season, ****ty end.
Fans trying to troll whose teams haven't seen a SCF in ages. Morons.

That's for sure,this Bruins team for awhile now has been guilty of ****ting the bed at home in elimination games ,

Binnington did his job really well tonight

Well once again anti hockey beats hockey when it matters most. NHL wants more revenue get rid of the trap bull****

No he's not.
Bruins forwards are.

sorry excuse for a performance here. Top line laid an egg this series. What a joke.

Already knew a few years later. 2 losses in the final is brutal

Let's show all these easy saves again.

Marshy came so close 6 hole but Bennington stoned him

Pasta suck, Marchand sucked, I think I heard Bergeron's name once.

Nothing is getting past Binnington today. I wonder if he is just a flash in the pan or will actually become an elite goalie for years to come.

Harry Sinden would trade Pasta for this effort if he was still here

Your the kind of guy who would heckle William Shakespear for incorrect punctuation in one stanza of Henry the Fifth.

Well...when is the draft?

Top six failed the team, simple as that.

If Tampa and Washington didn't **** the bed Bruins wouldn't even be here.

Pasta misses again

The core veterans (Chara, Bergeron,Rask, Krejci) will not reach another cup final. This was it.

LOL @ Wiggy predicting the sweep after G1.
It's knucklehead fanboys like him that make me hate Boston sports sometimes.

Here is the FTP for the third period.

Page number: 24

I want Pasta traded. The Ovi wannabe

Pasta is like 0-10 tonight

I REALLY thought we had this before the game that is...

DK has been awful

If he is not injured? Yeah, I can totally see Sinden doing that.

Lol Pastrnak holds when he should one time then fans the next attempt
That's his performance in ten seconds.

Well it was a good run, too bad they decided to play their worst game of the series tonight. See you all next season.

Idk. He has some part but our offense stinks. Our first line has been garbage. How many of those shots went straight at him. This bruins team can't put two quality games back to back.

Who cares..just more excuses
As usual

The rare example of losing the game, not the other team winning.
And this ice should have several someone's fired.

Lot guys laid n egg

Pasta better have an artificial wrist at this point

All year, they struggled to score 5-on-5. That's the major fix that they need to make for next year. You can't just depend on your powerplay, especially in the playoffs.

thats it **** pasta I will hate him for life now.

i am done I have nothing left

I don't think we should be too tough on our team. They had a very good Season and also a very very good Playoffs. It's damn unfortunate that the Blues jumped out to the lead in this 7th game, and on Boston home-ice, nonetheless, but it simply looks like it just isn't meant to be this year. Much closer though than 2013, and also a better Final, but unfortunately with the same result. Game isn't over yet, so I'll be super glad if this post is unexpectedly proven wrong. haha.

All 3 wont be here

Remember game 5. We got jobbed.
St Louis capitalized.

Agreed. Time to field offers for him. I said the same thing after Seguins no show in the 2013 playoffs and got roasted for it. He was traded 2 months later.

Give the refs the Conn Smythe

First line... 0 points ES in 7 games. How?

And it's on the $6M star player we DON'T have bc they used it to gamble on a washed up old man.

Absolutely flash in the pan. He'll be forgotten outside of st.louis in 4 years.

unreal

I need to make a list of all the Hot Taeks some of you are making during this game so I can shoot them back at you next season.

The bruins were not outplayed- Goalies were the difference

Has there been a more disappointing performance? Ever?

Mojo can do everything but pass and shoot.

Page number: 25

in this watered down league i would not bet on it.

He's Cam Ward 2.0
Book it.

**** these pathetic pukes

I'm done. See you next year.

The worst tradition in sports is hearing "Blah blah had this, blah blah had that"
It does not matter.

I hate this game.

4-0 of course

dave lewis wouldve had this team ready to play tonight

Yup, sad but true.
And their legacies took a little hit tonight. Still great, but no longer in the convo for legends.

Nice run by RASK. He carried this team to this 7th game. He can look in the mirror and not be ashamed. The same can not be said by Bergy, Marchand, and Pastrnak. Disgusting performance by the 'rejection' line.

You consider trading Pasta. He's been a joke

What a sin. On their home ice

Biggest mistake sitting David backes **** you cassidy

Holy god this is 2011 all over again.

****ing disgraceful

Why do we look GASSED?
Explain it to me

LMAO 4g 10s

pasta is the new Kessel. he will never win a cup as the top guy after what I have seen over the last two years. he will be the depth guy on a winning team but not the top winger.

I don't think so. How many of those shots where difficult to stop? Some of those shots where weak.

**** OFF YOU PITIFUL CHOKE ARTISTS... RASK AND COMPANY.

Canucks 2.0
What an embarrassment.

The only true clutch team in Mass are the Patriots.

Like someone alluded to earlier, that second goal was the back breaker. 7 seconds left in the period. You escape down 1-0, it's a totally different game.
And let's not blame Rask. Offense laid a big goose egg

This ****** team strung me along for an entire playoff run to come out and play the worst ****ing game in the history of the sport in game 7.
**** every single one of them.

Yeah, guess you're right. ****

Page number: 26

Does Neely have any bottles left?

I dont like trading him.

Team of Destiny. Just get out of the way

CHOKE
CHOKE
CHOKE

If we had been the team taking constant, unpunished, shots to the head of the Blues all series long, we definitelyy would've won. Kudos, I guess, Berube you fugly ****

Sitting backes in a game 7 Stanley cup is sooooo so dumb

Dont reply to that mouth breather. Hasn't been back here since the Leafs lost. Isn't worth the effort.

Totally agree...not debateble
One thing of this cheap blues team is you cannot give them a lead. Until proven otherwise
Rask is aloser

4 goals on 18 shots. EA sports..it's in the game

wow what a crap performance. To get blown out in a game 7 in the stanley cup finals. Gonna take me a long time to get over this and start liking this team again

I'm Mr Positive but I'll see you in October

Honestly, the fault lies on no one but the top 6 forwards.

we are vancouver

Anyone who turns around to blame Rask are the same people jumping to do it all year.

They were ready to play. The dominated the first period. They lost the game in the first period because they couldn't finish. Then, StL just bogged things down and they could do *nothing*.

Massive, massive hit. One cup vs two is worlds apart.

How about we don't trade David Pastrnak... Seguin anyone?

What an embarrassment. Can't even be optimistic anymore

Simply ridiculous statement.

they're legends bc of 2011, getting 1 cup in hockey does that. Hardest title to win in sports

When. Pastas contract negotiations begin the bruins habe plenty of tape to show him

It's more like too late. Can't wait to see Backes out with his former teammates tonight. It'll be great to have him around for the next couple of years.

I'm out ,dont even want to talk about hockey for awhile,have a good summer everyone.

Neely n Sweeney better think about top centres for future Ours best days are over.

Oh look, Tuukka finally made a save

This one going to haunt me for a while. Good night fellow fans.

Page number: 27

Right now they can trade them all
Start with Berg March Pastr Rask everyone

I know after this series there's no such thing as karma of hockey gods.

Bruins had to chase. This game probably was over the minute they got the first one and could sit on it.
A shame.

Did you actually watch the first period?

Yeah, that's zero consolation for those of us who don't give a flying **** about the Patriots.

There is still time ! To lose 5-0

Sad ending to a hell of a season. Can't believe it's ending like this. ****

Congrats to the St Louis Blues on a hard fought Stanley Cup win.

Blow it up.

Absolutely comical. You can't score on numerous chances and every chance they get ends up in the net.

never would have seen this coming. losing by 4 goals.

I don't know what to say but I love this team.

Going to be an interesting offseason . We are too soft up front and too small on the back end . Painfully obvious .

He would've scored 5 goals. **** off

I feel bad for Vancouver at this point. Wow. This sucks.

Can't wait to see David Krejci leave this team he was good before and slacked this cup final

Could be worse. We could be Toronto.

The St. Louis goalie blocked shots but shots on goals is very overrated when those shots are weak. He had some good saves and some saves that where not difficult.

On the other side of Game 7 2011. Very similar.

He just signed big deal.

really didnt expect to lose this like this

No different then game 6- when we won by 4

I'm absolutely stunned right now shame I was rooting for you guys screw these last place believers

What a crazy season. From Tampa Bay who looked like all but a lock to St Louis. Enjoy your 20 minutes of fame St Louis

It's his thumb. It's gotta be his thumb. Please tell me it's his thumb.

Page number: 28

Ass kicking.
Sweeneys design will never work.
Bruins need size and grit to go with skill. They failed on the later.

Having is presence in a game 7 final against his old team woulda had a spark and light a fire in the intermissions

Sorry you feel that but it will be a long time before we see the finals again.
You get to the Dance..you boogie

A bad joke.

We may suck tonight but Vancouver sucks all the time

At least it's very cap friendly and appealing for a trade.

Tuukka is back!!!!!!! I said it many of times the bruins would never win a cup with him as goalie. Sure wish we had Binnington.

If Pastrnak, or Marchand, or Bergeron, or Krejci, or Debrusk, idk just pick ONE, give us half of what ANY ****ING TOP SIX FORWARD ON THE BLUES HAS GIVEN THEM, Boston lifts the cup tonight.
Shameful efforts by all of them. I'm angry as **** right now so I'm probably saying things i don't mean, but these are legacy altering performances

This was like one of my Kate Upton dreams when its great for 8 hours then the alarm goes off

With the way our first line played this postseason we are lucky to be here. No power plays in the finals and our top guys only scored on the power play. 5 on 5 wins and our guys didn't have it.
good job by the rest of the team to get us here **** off to the top line. I never want to hear them called perfection line again. they suck in the playoffs period.

Realistically it was over after 2-0. STL is designed to play with a lead like that

Yes. You can give me shots on goal all you want but that stat is overrated. This team couldn't generate really good opportunities.

Bruins never showed up. Sloppy with the puck, Blues played good defensively. That was the last chance for this core.

Trade Marchand and pasta. Chara retire. Rebuild with more players with balls.

This one stings

They're Garnett and Rondo when they could've been Bird or Big Papi.

It's hard to win this mug no doubt. Turning point was losing game 2 overtime.

St. L bigger and tougher and meaner. Bos were playing at the ends of their sticks 5 minutes in.

I did..it's 4-0 isn't it?

what was it last year when he did the same no show act

It was a game away from working and better than 29 other teams. **** happens

well they have been running on fumes I will say that.
But when you get a team like that and they can smell the cup..........they are gonna run anyone over.
This one was over when Marchand let Petrangelo walk right by him to the net..... as he went for a rest on the bench with 7 second to go in the period.

Agreed. Add this to 2013 and unfortunately he's a playoff choker.

Johannsson chance was difference early. Bruin fan 49 years and its time to get some good younger centres with speed .Ours are slow

Hey Sweeney remember when you whiffed on the draft on at least 3 different picks and then had all season to improve the top 6 and failed?

Pasta better have a ****ing broken arm.

Page number: 29

Never understood trolling other people's boards.
It's not like the team is bringing the Cup to your house after they win it....

This game will be forever deemed "The Marchand Save" for me... that puck goes in 999 times out of 1000... net is wide open, Binnington whiffs and his ****ing jersey stops a puck traveling 80+ MPH
With how they played early and our record with Marchand scoring goals in the playoffs... it's a totally different scenario. ****ing crazy.
Love this team

Unfortunately it's always been part of hockey but it's no fun to be on the receiving end.
It must be even worse for neutral fans. I'd have turned it off in the 2nd.

And inferior

binnington deserves the shutout tonight at this point. he was amazing.

Jack Edwards is on suicide watch

Yea in all the ways I thought about gm 7 going over the last few days, none of them looked like this.
Sad to think it could be another 15-20 years before we even see our team back in the cup final. Plenty of teams have been great, have had great players and a great core. And have never seen a SCF.
1-2 is a tough SCF record for this era of Bruins.
Part of me is proud that they got there 3 times, but at the end of the day?
Out of all the teams this year, we are just another loser.

It happens sometimes. Wished it wasn't tonight though.

Team had a great season. Now the challenge is not to do what Vancouver did and go out and ruin the team in the offseason. Invest in some proper ice cooling equipment and give this team a chance to use their skill next year.

Yep, we would have won the game 0-0 if he shut them out.

Man it has been tough ever since winning the cup. They have had some stinkers in the playoffs. You will never get a better chance here. Idk if they can return to this spot again.

cant wait to see what these losers have to say for themselves

Man I'm sad.
2013 we lost to a better team.
I don't believe that here. But St. Louis has certainly played well enough to earn it.

Shots are 31-20. No way in my mind I accept the bruins couldn't have other this off.
Needed to score. Bruins didn't.

2011 was a fluke. This all but seals that.

I've been done with Krejci and Rask for years. Get them both out of town

We're about to go down the Vancouver road of suck.

Probably a slew footing/tripping call away from working in 6.

A broken everything

Ass kicked.

I think after they were stoned on their first 9 shots they just threw their hands up and said wellllp we ga have it a shot ay

Cheer for the Blues then, they seem more like a team you like. You can count all the head shots with K's from your balcony seat.

4 goals in 3min... doable?

It's his thumb for sure. Up his arse.

Totally agree

Yeah, I thought he was playing scared right from the get go tonight....and it showed
I knew they couldn't afford to let blues get a 2 goal lead tonight
but some of the B's best players didn't fully show up either

Page number: 30

Weren't the bruins smelling the cup as well? I sure hope so

Nobody should be pinning this **** on Rask when your top lines are still ****ing ghosts besides Pasta last game in a blowout win

The blew their load in the first, Binnington elevated, 2 softies by Rask killed it and they quit as a team.
Rask is who we thought he was. 5 on 5 has been a problem all year. Never did get a second line.

If by everything you mean "œThe Boston Bruins."
They are broken

They rolled over. I didn't see that happening at all. Guess the 11 guys that are no longer with the team were the clutch performers in that one. None of the core or important guys elevated their game to what it needed to be, really. Charlie= suck, Chara= suck, Krejci=Suck, Bergy= suck, Pasta= suck Marchand= suck, Coyle= suck, Mojo=suck, JDB=suck

I agree. Hawks were better. This blues team is not.

That 2015 first round was ****ing disgusting, still is to this day

If ANYONE blames Rask, they got rocks in their heads.

Not on him. He kept us IN these playoffs

I feel bad for Z. really wanted to see him get one more before it was over for him. really depressing.

Since the first every shot has been to his glove.

That what lost the cup. Nothing else should be said. Not Rask . Not the D.Not Chara.
Bergeron
Marchand

The rest are what they are ,they all chipped in , Those top four dreadful , I'm not a cheerleader I call it like I see it.

They'll be getting the NBA trophy later this week...so I'd rather be them right now.

Tough to imagine this core is going to get this kind of opportunity again.

We lost 3 games on home ice in the scf

The loss is not on him. Top 2 lines were trash

Except for the 2 Game 7 home wins over the Leafs, the Bruins record the last 10 years in Game 7 at home has been bad.
A total bummer tonight given their play the whole year and playoffs.

There is no perfect way to build a team. You are 1 win away, your team is built good enough. At some point it comes down to luck, the Blues could have been out against a limited Stars team.
They have to re-tool regardless. Core is aging and it seems like it was their last hurrah.

Toronto won multiple times

Laid an egg in game 7. Woof. Total woof. The Red Sea parted and they couldn't capitalize. It's gonna be tough to be back, but at least this year we watched meaningful hockey in June.

Only in the warped minds of daydream believers and apologists.

I wouldn't even say he's a flash in the pan. This is the first game this series he's looked impressive as opposed to us making him look impressive. Might start for a season or two before back up duty/AHL.

Hey guys,
Canucks fan here coming in peace.
I would just like to take this time and express my sincere condolences. Obviously as a Canucks fan, I know what it's like to lose Game 7. If any of you feel like you need to talk or need to grieve over the loss, please don't feel shy to send me a PM.
Go Bruins!

Lmao

Three more.

I hope it's over for him after tonight. He's been on the ice for almost all of the goals this series.

**** off grzelcyk.

In game 7's I agree

They have the biggest, most punishing defenseman in the history of the game. And Kevan Miller, and the Kuraly-Acciari duo. To say there's no size and grit on this team is laughable. This team is similarly constructed to the Blackhawks, Caps & Pens - significant skill up front, D who can transition the puck up. They simply didn't finish this year like those teams did.
This team was one bad call and a couple of bounces away from winning the Stanley Cup. To say that design "won't work" when it's repeatedly worked is inaccurate.

They proved that strong defense and grit is still needed. Cant have too many primadonnas like the Bruins.

Love you guys, what a sad night though.
I really do believe that if that Marchand shot on the PP goes in we're celebrating a cup win right now.. had all the momentum, grade A scoring chance after grade A scoring chance and couldn't find the back of the net.
I don't even think the Blues played a good game, they just scored on their opportunities which were far and few between and that's that, lights out.

Blues top line showed up all series. Ours didn't. THAT'S THE ****ING DIFFERENCE. Rask played his god damn balls off with no help from his top forwards

I don't even really like hockey all that much, anyway.

Sorry 4ORRBRUIN but I'm not consoled.but appreciate the attempt

NBA sucks. They can have it.

YES!!!!!!!!!!! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

If only he played the whole ****ing series

We got this!

That pisses me off.
NOW WE SCORE.
F off.

The only player that scores is concussed

I wish i could have enjoyed that goal. Cuz it was nice

Binnington won't be in the league in 3 years. Book it

Thank God. At least they won't be shutout.

That's all we needed in the first. Way too late

Vomit. Honestly vomit.

Too little too late. Good for you Gryz.

Need miracle

ugh we paid DK over 7 mill for his playoff performance. gross

Happy we broke the goose egg.



That's just a slap in the face

Krejci has been one of our best playoff performers numbers wise every year. Rask has been easily the best goaltender in the playoffs and deserves a look at the Conn Smyth even with this loss.
Get out of here.

At least we didn't get reverse vancouver'd

This is exactly right. REACHING!

Well the bruins let a St. Louis team win. If any pro sports team in the Boston area was gonna lose to those hicks i would have picked the bruins . Just based on recent history with this team.

Page number: 32

As I said before should have just pulled Rask down 2-0 in the 2nd!

Poor Tuukka he looked so sad

I don't think so.
The bruins defense is real good and young. Sweeney needs to make some changes but I like their odds on being right back here in the very near future.

Total agree inexcusable to lose 3 home games in the finals

Wipty do

Uhh. At least we're not getting shut out?

Game was over once Marchand packed it in.

Maybe O'Reilly will celebrate his win by driving drunk into a tim hortons. Real character guy after all.
Them winning is a black eye for this league. What a joke.

Rask looks bad now. Wish it were 2-1.

Can't even be mad at this point, Binnington stole this game in the first and the bruins just started gripping their sticks extremely tight, Rask didn't make the timely saves.
Congrats to the Blues, they played a mostly clean game and won with timely goals.
Bruins can take some more cracks at the can over the next few years, life goes on

Lot of pathetic posts here.

Hopefully

Need a hallucegenic

Apologist Goon Squad in 3...2...1

See. The goalie sucks.
Couldn't that have happened earlier.

Gotta look at the team leaders.

Well totally embarrassing to lay an egg like that in game 7 of the finals in your own building no less, I guess we know how the Canucks felt in 2011. Rask unfortunately will still have the can't win the big one tag on him. Maybe it is time to start a true rebuild and off load some vets like Krejci and Krug in the off season, get some picks for what is a deep draft and start this thing again.

GO AWAY

I don't because we have no one that showed they can step into his place. Charlie Mac didn't take over a single game in the playoffs and carlo is not the type that can step into the role I don't think. when we have no #1 D we are in trouble.

The bruins moral victory.

Rask did not play as well as he has. Buit Petrangelo scors that goal on any goalie. So does Schenn.
Bruins could not finish. Marchand who I admire......played like a stiff tonight. Debrusk was completely ineffective. Heinen his usual useless self.

I don't like trading him either. I'd love trading him.

How many games have you watched where the only penalty that is called is a DOG. Now I'm not saying that officiating was the difference in this game because it wasn't, my point is that this game and all the games before it were not officiated properly. Advantage St.Louis. It wasn't the difference in this game but it was the difference in this series.

EXACTLY what I was thinking!

They better get booed out of the building.

Page number: 33

I'll say it as naseum this top line. Can't win if ya don't show up

Remember when Pastrnak would dummy a one timer? Good times.

Might be years to get this chance again.Time to add some parts at key spots.Studnicka being 1

Marshy was soft tonight

Again why are you here? Go away you habs fan!

now they care? **** them

Or the chest

Hamburgler 2.0

Can we report Leafs fans liking posts?

Most meaningless goal in SCF history.

Shot it right into Binnington. Reminds me of last year, Vegas hit two posts early. Washington scores. Washington runs away with it. Momentum is a hell of a thing.

Why is Pasta still on the ice? He can't hit the net for the life of him.

Need a top 4 d in the offseason as well as a top 6 forward.

Side note: stay safe down there, guys.

delete

no come back. See you at the draft peeps

Canada invented this ****bag sport. I blame them.

This hurts

Like a scrotum that's it in a nutshell

How do you people pin it on one player in a game 7 SCF loss. Why are people so ridiculous?

I cant believe I have to watch another team celebrate on our ice

Berg is old and played lots of hockey same for Krejci
Weakening at such an important position as center makes me less optimistic.
Sweeney will have to draft and trade remarkably well.
And I don't know if Rask can ever win the big game .

MarchNd or Pastrnak needs to go

who i feel bad for the most is the fans that paid thousands per ticket

Wow no words to describe how dumb of a post this was. Lol.

1st line and Krejci (+ JDB). Everyone else basically exceeded expectations.

Just goes to show you that a heavy defensive team can win

For the second time in 6 years.

Page number: 34

Bruins going 4/4 on the PP hurt big time.

Worst part is watch HIM get the Smythe now...

As long as they keep Chara. He's planning on having arm extensions for next season.

Such a disappointing game. Started so well with that 14+ minutes without allowing a shot.
Then that lucky deflection and late 1st period changed all the momentum.

Again.

Pathetic trash

Tough night. Tough tough night.
Good night all, see you in October

What a horrible night

Numb

The Bruins choke

St. Louis got jobbed in San Jose series, came back and won. Boston should have done same. Non call sucked but you cant use it as an excuse, there is no excuse for this effort tonight

Well, that run by the Bruins was pretty sweet! Not the ending we wanted, but that's just how it goes sometimes. The future looks bright and as Michael Jordan said "In order to succeed, you must learn to fail first".

I hope a meteor falls on TD Garden and both these teams are blown up

We desperately needed size from a year ago. Sweeney didn't get enough of it. Coyle was a good trade and I won't even complain about Johansson. This was a flawed team that got exposed.

Marchand for me. Keep the younger player.

It was a nice season. Good memories once I get over this game. See you all in October.

Didn't deserve it. Got outplayed.

Bruins top 6 shows up in 2 other games this season, which isn't too much to ask considering they are supposed to be your best players, we win in 5 or 6.
I wish we had the excuse of blaming our depth for not helping out.
But no, it's your sports heroes that let you down.

Will the Blues make the playoffs next year?
I hope they won't.

Congrats to the St Louis Blues

Lol... Hahaha

Changes need to be made for sure

****! That is all.

Rask set a record with 23 straight playoff games over .900, I just had a bad feeling tonight would be the first game under .900.
**** man

At this point, I wish the Blue Jackets would've beaten us.
Laying an egg in G7 is the absolute worst.

Again. Same choking core. Pathetic.

Marchand crying

Page number: 35

Cry *****es...

If it wasnt for tuukka we're not even here. Blame your top 6

You go for it for one more run. Krejci and Rask have two more years, Bergeron three, Pasta four, Marchand six (!). Need two wingers to replace MoJo and finally give 46 a RW. D might come from within depending on how good Urho will be.

Don't shake their hands. **** them. Talentless goons. Least deserved championship in sports history

Who cares

Yes bad game for the Bruins and looks like rask will not be still on the TT Level close at you can get

Top line trash, rask trash, coaching trash.
****ing trash all around.

1st line lost this series.

Legacy for Bergeron and Chara is a bit tarnished without a doubt.

Man we should of had that cup
At home too
I am so so down

That whole line has been pure garbage 5v5. Bruins willed their way to game 7 despite those stiffs.

This sucks.

That was very sad! Pathetic, unforgiving!
15 seconds left in the period and you cant stay on the ice to defend an odd man rush. You head to the bench making it even worse?
That too me, shows he didn't want it enough

**** man seeing Marchy and Johansson like that broke me

Feel bad for Chara. What a Bruin should be. Too bad rest of this team didnt show up

Proud of Bruins..But hoping though we can get faster, younger and stronger at centre moving forward. I think tonite we saw end of an era

Marchand is the goat of this game.

Have to watch this **** on garden ice for the 2nd time :/

Uncomfortably.

Think maybe something in his head is broken

What a ****ing let down

Your right

"lucky deflection
What would you be calling that if it were Bergeron to put the Bruins up 1? So ****ing disingenuous.

**** Marchand.
**** Bergeron.
**** Pastrnak.
**** Krejci.
**** DeBrusk.
**** this whole ****ing group. **** you all. **** **** **** you. You ****ing bums.
And Chara. ****ing retire.

Bruins were lucky other teams fell apart or they wouldn't have gone this deep.

Page number: 36

Not me. I turned it off at 0:00

I'd like to congratulate the blues
But I sure can't ... not now that's for sure
I was looking forward to the parade

Bergeron better be injured because if he's not, he's a huge reason why they choked

Rask looks like he doesn't give a ****
ready to clock out

I wouldn't be sad to see Pasta traded

This team is so bad. Blow it up.

Boston bruins home...best place for champions ....of others teams
I don't want to be pathetic but it is time to rebuilt and bruins need to listen offers for marchand...Bergy and rask
O reilly made a clear statement of Who is the best complete center....over Bergy the ghost

Glad 2011 happened. Might be another generation before we see another one.
Toronto may never see another one.

1st line blew it. Just a ****ing shameful display

What can the NHL do to make the regular season more meaningful cause right now it's meaningless.

The better team doesn't always win.
The Blues winning and suddenly becoming disciplined after 4/4 PP game will forever be etched in history.
A shame but the Bruins should have executed better on all the tap in goals tonight.
This is not on Rask.
I can feel Felger's excited and joy from here.

Retool and become the "Big Bad Bruins" again...
at least we might win some fights. (if there are any fighters left to draft nowadays that is)

The blues celebrated a game too early I guess. The last 3 road teams have won a game 7 .

Congrats to the Blues, a truly disappointing performance by our team tonight....

If the whole team isn't injured, I hope they get injured by an angry mob outside.

Wearing a visor?? Lol

Cassidy decided to live and die by that first line. they killed him in the end.

Bruins let it slip.
Awesome season with a devastating end.

We have a top 4 1/2, not a top 6.

Let's face it he's a moron. He's a talented yet mentally flawed moron.

Is it over yet? I turned it off as soon as Sanford's shot hit the back of the net.
First time in decades I've not watched the Cup celebration. I just can't stomach it.

Yeah, well.
Too much **** in the last year has gone wrong for me and I missed the season and first round of the playoffs.
Sucks to see a stinker like this but am grateful for the ride while I've been able to be on it.
It's just a game and next year awaits.
Rest easy my fellow Bs fans.
There will be other chances.

Congrats to the Blues. Really thought they wouldn't win in Boston for game 7. They got a couple and shut the Bruins down. Pasta better be hurt, because his performance in the playoffs will forever change my opinion of him. Krejci and Heinen were useless. Rask deserved better.

Can't believe we lost to ****ing st Louis lol... ****...
Better team lost in my opinion.

Vomit.

Page number: 37

Done with Marchy, done with Heinen, done with Debrusk, done with the constant 180 gameplan switch after we dominate.

I remember seeing these posts right before Seguin got traded

You got it Alicat. And I would care less

if only those 3 picks of Sweeney's did something

Oreilly and Bennington were the difference

Can't blame him for trying, the first line can literally win games single handedly at times, it just didn't happen at all in the finals, sadly.
ahhhhhhh what a life

Bergeron, DK,
I'm mad at the most

These guys should be ashamed

Congratulations NHL, your 'champions' are absolute scum. Nothing but headhunters, dirtbags and a-holes from the head coach on down. You should be proud.

Everyone with the Pasta trades ready to go are mad.

The fans cheering the team walking off the ice should be ashamed.
Boo those ****ing choke artist pieces of ****

This has been my issue for years since 2011.
I just don't care about the games until playoffs start. I don't care about the long winning streaks, the "Novembers to remember", the 40 goal scorers, the 100 pt scoring season.
It means absolutely nothing.
NOTHING.

A deflection is always « lucky ».
Wake up.

What's the point when the league is gonna change what's a penalty by next postseason anyways, and the postseason after that. None of it being at all consistent with how games are called in the regular season. They cracked down after Detroit won their 9000th cup with clutch and grab bull**** and then just kind of forgot that it was illegal.

Never been more embarrassed

At least Heinen was stellar
A star is born

This opportunity might never come again. Everything was in place. This team failed in the end. It will be interesting how they bounce back next season.

Likely what did them in

I meant at 2-0 "they could smell it" . Bruins played great in the first. But at 2-0 they were done. Blues locked it down and nobody was beating them after 2-0 and 40 minutes to go.

This series...and especially this game will haunt Chara, Bergy, Marchand, Krejci and Rask for a long, long, long time.

No excuses. This was this group's last shot. Uninspired showing.
Performance of top six 5x5 was awful. For seven games.
Bruins have no one to blame but themselves. 3 losses at home in the finals.

Excellent Expert analysis right there.

Oh well

Such a shame. Team shat the pants and left Rask to die.
Also Rask is not Tim Tom.

In hindsight.. we were ****ing lucky to be here.... at the end of the day we lost.... and I'll tell you this we lost on home ice in game 7.... I'm pissed... big, rough, tough,, hockey wins ... don't you millennials ever forget it... Canadian tough hockey wins. I will always bleed black and gold... bht blues earned this!! We are too soft.

Page number: 38

Not as hard as the rest of us

I have to look on the bright side. I don't have much hate for st.louis. After all beer comes from there.

I honestly am not going to ***** out this team as a whole. They played well enough to win the damn game. But once binnington plaued the first he did...it just didn't seem like our night.
I got reamed for my criticism of Pastrnak down the stretch this season. He ****ing sucked the last fifty or so games this year (including playoffs). Even before the hand injury.
Other than that, it's been fun (mostly). Thanks everyone for a great place to come to talk Bruins.

Radio Marchand. That goal was the back breaker

Sad that I am most excited about the new ice plant next season.

Holy overreaction. You know they made it to game 7 of the finals, yes?

Omg you have me in tears bro. I can picture him in a dark room calling random games he has taped with a Brick mannequin. Very weird i know lmao

they had a poor playoffs overall. almost only got it done on the PP.

They won't bounce back. Management will be convinced they have a good team rather than a lucky situation that led them to the finals.

Bergeron was the best player on his line. That tells you how bad Marchand and Pasta were.

And literally nothing will matter for another 12 months at least
And Tampa and Washington aren't going to crash out early every year. This was our only ****ing chance and we went and **** it away. I'm furious. Absolutely furious.

Well Sweeney surely would have scored massive points with a cup
But he is still a loser

Joke post. These two teams were by far the best and if the played 100 games it would be 51-49

Great start. Bad line change by Marchand creates numbers that led to the second goal. Way too much passing and perimeter play, not enough shooting. I don't mind getting outplayed, but I hate getting outworked. No way we should have lost that game. Shameful performance. I will be back again next season, expecting a different result.

**** him , take a long look in the mirror chump

Big Time

Better ****** fix the ice for next year (and no, that's not what I took from this game. Just sayin'.)

An all-time missed opportunity.
Can't believe it ended like that.

Don, is that you?

Oh lord no.

Let's trade pasta for lucic back. I know he sucks now but I want someone to bang even when he doesn't score

Leaving this board now before I say something I regret. And it's not about the team.

Yup.
At least Chiarelli made moves to improve the team.

Agreed totally
Rask had to be phenomenal
We couldn't give them a lead

It takes a helluva lot of luck to get here. Just ask St. Louis. If it's not for a ridiculous defensive play on a wraparound with five seconds left against Dallas, they'd have been playing golf a month ago.
That's why this is so painful. Just getting this close is really, really hard.

Page number: 39

It's funny but they might have won a game 7 had it been in St. Louis. This team stunk up the joint at home.

honestly all 3 of the 1st liners better be seriously hurting because otherwise I can't make a lick of sense out of how bad they all were. it's baffling.

They're old. Their top 2 centers are on the wrong side of 30. Their top defenseman is 40. They're done.

Pasta for Nugent Hopkins and Lucic 30% retained.

Respect to O'Reilly. Younger Bergeron. Only blue I like

Yup, unreal.

"sports heroes" is an oxymoron.

They blew a perfect opportunity,I have no doubt that they would have never got bye Tampa or the Caps .I don't think they get another shot for along time now .

Yup and you're not guaranteed to be back here again.

This team brought me to the top and also broke me. Gonna be a long summer.

Your happy? You liked effort ? You liked our skill? Tough Canadian hockey won!

Better team won, but I still like the B's and will always be a chara fan

2019
2013
2014
Three huge missed opportunity since that 2011 Cup win.

Season comes down to 1 game. Luck didnt go their way

All season long was one of the worst teams on 5 v 5
And tonight it came to haunt them
Cant be too sad when you can make it to a game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals
*downs another shot* ... it's sad though, to lose like this on home ice

Bye

has a 100 point player ever been that bad in a Cup finals?
pasta must need glasses or something. looked like he was on lsd fir half the playoff games. how many missed one timers and passes. that top line better all have serious injuries.
krejci ill give a pass to. he had nobody on his line.

**** off you piece of ****

Well said...

It's called Bruins.

O'Reilly ****ing smoked us. Deserved.

IMO, a big part of the reason for that was the terrible ice in Boston. The Bruins had two blowout wins in St. Louis where the ice was slightly better, but looked unable to make anything happen in the offensive zone at home.

I won't sleep for a week

O'Reilly deserves it.

Page number: 40

Was likely the last chance for all of em IMO, our prospect pool is pretty awful outside of the blueline and Bergeron and Krejci are probably looking at a decline real soon.

Yup. This was probably their last chance.

Just got the "œit's just a game" no chance I sleep tonight

Marchand is a joke

So ****ing shameful

People are just beyond overreacting right now. I get it though. Emotions are imsanely high. I luckily prepared myself for this all day. They do need to make some changes though. They need a young first line center and move 37 and 46 down a slot each. Or trade 46 all together and go with coyle and bergeron. Not in that order obviously

Well deserved for RoR. Almost single handedly won the series

I can't say that, and can usually sympathize for a team that's waited this long but this is more like congrats NHL.

Hell of a ride guys, glad its done either way. Back to normal life.

O'reilly deserves the award. He outplayed Bergeron by a large margin.

Will take this should have to my grave. Worst sports defeat for me ever and I've had plenty

I think we all know that we are not going to be in the final for a while . This was a massive opportunity blown , missed whatever .

Krejci has already declined IMHO. Was invisible most of the playoffs.

I just wish we lost to ****ign Tampa in round 2. I wasted six weeks of my life for this.
**** you Bobrovsky.

Its a shame I thought he floated a lot and wasn't responsible defensively for most of the playoffs and just didn't have it offensively, but that play at that end of the first told it all. You need to suck it up, dig down deep, and pull something from with in, you have to have the will to compete and battle through it even though your tired and Marchand showed just the opposite and quit!

Shouldn't let trolls get you upset when their teams aren't even good enough to see a SCF. Things can always be worse.
This board needs some time to simmer down.

Good season...I didn't expect this run. Had some tough puck luck in the first and Binnington got hot. Cant help but think what might have been off we got that first goal. Marchand shot that somehow found the armpit and Krjeci's missed the 5 hole and it seemed like the game was over.

Just so tough to watch this. It was ours.
Gonna be a tough couple of days. They blew it.

Nice to see all the Bruins and Boston sports teams haters all a sudden posting about the game on facebook or tagging that theyre all a sudden watching.

I feel like im really questioning bergies legacy now if hes not injured.
I mean how can we seriously claim hes the best defensive forward in the league if he got outplayed in the finals by ROR so so so so badly? Ugh.

Don't agree on Caps, but they wouldn't have beat the Lightning. They are basically the Leafs who nearly eliminated us just better on D.
It was a golden opportunity and probably the last of that core. Let's see if Sweeney gives it 1-2 more shots or if there will be an overhaul.

And again they skate around in OUR RINK.
FIRE EVERYONE.

I will be very happy when he's no longer a Bruin

Bigger, tougher team won. Forecheck and hitting hemmed in Bruins for extended periods.
Lot of changes need to be made but getting bigger and tougher are two. Younger at center also is a key.

heres the idiot with the awful hair

Page number: 41

If I were a betting man I'd say 10 more years before the bruins sniff the finals.

Maybe he can go get shattered again and go through a Tim Horton's again

Still have the tv on (because I'm not that sore of a loser. But i ain't ******* watching it
edit - **** that, turned it off

Never expected a cup final appearance this season. This one will sting for a while

Didn't like how much we celebrated vs the Canes. Ugh.

My heart hurts so much knowing that this was probably it for this core.
And knowing that if they just bury one of those chances in the 1st they most likely win.

2013 is nothing compared to losing like this. This was pathetic.

Great run by the bruins- let's give them credit

God that's embarrassing for a professional club to have crappy home field conditions .

Agreed. Nice to see you around. We will get em next year

And the narrative lives on.

Is there a feeling worse than numb? Cuz I think I'm feeling it

Couldn't agree more with this. Your 3rd and 4th lines basicalky got you here. The 1st line and 46 and debrusk were ghosts...

The top line was the worst line in the playoffs for the Bruins
Which I cant fanthom
It is basically a top notch special team line but an average/poor 5 vs 5 line

Maybe if he put in a better effort he wouldn't be crying

Cassidy really ****ed up not swapping Bergeron & Krejci. Stuck with Bergeron on line 1 loooong after it was apparent he had nothing in the tank.

Love Stanley Cup presentation. Straight to and all about the players. No owners, GMs, lobbyists, janitors etc.

****ing Pyro, really?

Great. Intelligent and skillful observation

Been saying this all series

Right there with you.

Need to lose to learn to win. Maybe the youth of this team has learned something

I agree Kitch totally..chance of a lifetime.
Let me ask you ..now that we lost like this ...was the run worthed?

They surely didnt look to spry this postseason...

Page number: 42

I hope we see some changes next season.
Tired of the soft, overpassing crappy play.

BUH GAWD ITS GOLDBERG

Your a fan of lottery teams, then?

Binnington and Rask had a great series. Hats off to them.

Our best players for the majority of the 2000's were a guy drafted in 03, and an all time UFA signing in Chara after the lockout. It could be 20 years before we see another good solid core like we had.

So many teams in this league have gone through cores with nothing to show for it. Minnesota had Mikko Koivu for a long while. Great 2 way guy, similar to Bergeron. Has had really good defense at times, a really good d-core at times. Some solid goaltending from a guy like Nick Backstrom.
They never saw the late rounds of the postseason.
San Jose, don't need to dig into them, but had 1 shot even thought they had good D, Marleau and Thornton, etc.
Seriously an all time missed opportunity.

Gained 9 lbs during this run. My wife actually bought me a Fitbit as a nice way of saying get your fat ass back to the gym I don't want to be stuck with Fred Flintstone

They won't bounce back. Their window just closed.

Welllllll, Krejci still had JDB and Kuhlman. NOT exactly chopped liver ffs. $7.5 million a year. No longer worth it. We needed more size up the middle. This summer and coming season are going to be interesting.

Was ready for someone to blow smoke out of their mouth after that

both teams play on the same ice. this is the worst excuse a hockey team or fan can make.

RoR is legit the only likeable Blue the rest are trash.

This might be the worst bruins loss ever
At least the 2013 Blackhawks and 1979 Habs were legitimately great.

Good.

I felt way better about G6 than G7.

I really wanted to see that ****ing puke cry tonight

He is on anothet level
I wish the Bruins traded for him when he was available

We didnt play like a losing team tonight imo. Hard to watch.

Thank god we still have the SOX to root for. Sorry, that wasn't funny.

****You... Come on man. None of those guys deserve that.

Need Center help for sure

I'd give my left foot to be able to see Chara lift this right now

Hard to believe they did all this show and they came up lame at home. The Red Sox suck. Now i have to wait for the football season to get any joy.

Well I also said Rask isn't Thomas, who was able to do it all by himself.

I think our core might be too old. Bergeron 33, Krejci 32, Rask 31, Marchand 30, they are on the decline.
Our forwards were outplayed by younger hungrier guys.
Also, remember when the Blues were bad and everyone said they wouldn't trade Debrusk for Tarasenko? lol

If memory serves me, the old Habs dynasty teams would often have their team sequestered in an outside Montreal hotel to get their players away from the distractions of playing at home in a series deciding game.

Bruins enjoy being on the wrong side of history.
Established 1924.

Both teams play on the same ice, but bad, choppy ice favors the lesser-skilled team.
The ice issues at the Garden have been known for a long time. The ice plant is getting replaced a year too late.

Do as I..I am not watching
In fact I didn't watch the entire third period

I don't even know what to say.
I'm devastated

Feels like the type of loss that could derail the franchise for a good period of time.
Get absolutely embarrassed on your home ice in a game 7 like that.
I would have rather lost to Columbus

Pietrangelo is ok in my book. so that makes 2 of them. agree that the rest are trash.

This is exactly what we did to the Canucks eight years ago. Feels bad

Not saying they lost just because of the ice either, but the B's play better on a good ice surface where the puck is not always bouncing and easier to handle which makes their passing game much better
This ice in Boston does not help their cause ...but it is what it is

Amonte calls it a choke.
LOL
Good...deal with it Bs.

Sigh. Disgusted. Heartbroken. Depressed as all get out.
Oh well. At least the Blahs didn't get a shutout.

Offense never showed up.

Toronto and TB will be worse next year.
Bruins favorite for the division.

If Beregeron isnt hurt the decline is here

No I'm a fan of using the cap properly. Send him to Carolina while his stock is somewhat high

Oh I turned it off immediately. But I meant them jumping and celebrating after the horn. Thar hurt

Surprised im not all that sad
I think part of me sort of expected this outcome.

Totally agree

LMFAO!!!! Did you watch them? They puked all over themselves. They give us ANYTHING the bruins win this series easily.

Eh, I like Maroon. Love his story.

Is it really?
2013 was beyond bad...losing late in the game like that
But 2011 goes to show you, how unhuman Tim Thomas was. That was a godly playoff performance

Cannot win when your third and fourth line have done all the scoring even strength. It just doesn't ****ing happen.

St. Louis this year was better than Edmonton in 1990. That one stung.
IMO, the two worst were Montreal 2014 & Buffalo 1993. Those teams are likely in the final (and probably champs) if they don't get bounced early by far worse teams.

**** Binnington and **** the forwards for not shooting on him

When you get to the Final usually the team with the most Canadians wins. In 2011 that was us. In 2019 that was St. Louis.

I bet those losers in New York are loving this.

you just get that feeling this was their shot. they're not gonna have this chance again for a long while.
sorry Z

My wife is worried about me...
...and so am I

How can you guys watch them skate around with the cup?

Thanks for giving me hockey until mid June - particularly when most figured a 5 game loss to TBL in round 2 was best we could hope for. I'm pissed but reading people talking about blowing it up and choking is hilarious to me - you are mentally weak hockey fans, find another sport.

Anybody that is honest noticed the same thing in all the series we won too . My god even Carolina set up in our zone for extended periods and dominated possession seemingly on a PO . This has to change !

You too, enjoy the summer.

I legitimately shed a tear or two.
This ****ing sucks so much. So much more than losing to Chicago. So much more than the Patriots losing in 07.
This teams run really picked me up the past 6 weeks, when I've needed it being unemployed, and having no success finding anything. Its been such an amazing distraction.
I'm just sad. Not even mad, sad.

Just seeing his face makes me want to smash my TV.

Say you're devastated
I'm devastated , disgusted,
Just in pain

Hope the Blues overpay Binnington and he sucks.

Ya. tomorrow (or Friday) it'll be "just a game". Tonight it's the ******* end of the world.
Got that from the wife after game 7 against Philly in 2010. Pretty much why she's the ex-wife!

They're ok size wise but come on man. Chara is beyond over the hill kuraly is an unreal forechecker and speedy but nope. Acciari and miller sure. The blues aee far larger overall and more physically intimidating

I want a tougher team that is more the identity of the Boston Bruins. Blues proved you can still have a tough team and win. You dont need to go all soft skilled and small. If this was 2011 it would have been a bloodbath. Instead the Bruins took a beaten all series long and it cost them when they started losing all board battles. I dont want to go for a run with this same team. I want changes. Not crazy, but again lets get back to the identity of the Bruins

i turned it off as soon as the B's went down the tunnel & they started interviewing Pietro. couldn't take it.

Tuukka Rask deserved better.
If ANYBODY is blaming him, see yourself out cause he stepped up ALL playoff long.

Good move, I gave up after the 3rd goal. No way I can watch this after the way this series played out.

It's not that it's a "blow up the core" loss, but seriously, this was a wide open window. ****ing Tampa and Washington went out. All the good teams in the west lost early. We should've won this series in 5 at worst. It's completely embarrassing.
Yeah, the refs ****ed us up the ass in game 5. The Blues got lucky in game 2 by injuring Gryz. But to not bury these *******s when you kicked their ass in the three games you won and to lose three times at home is just the worst.

I expected to lose to Chicago.
This is worse that Vikings v Falcons nfc title game for me

Still waiting for a response in our PM. Remember all those "I give up" posts you have that I refreshed your memory on?
GTFO lol

****ing brutal. Nice for the blues to get their first cup but we didn't show up for this one.

Wish I didn't quit drinking to be honest.

That team was more physical, younger, and had veteran players who could score. It wasn't all Thomas but yes 70% of them

It sucks, but it almost seems to cancel out what was otherwise an amazing season.
This is probably what the Lakers felt like when they lost to the Rasheed Wallace/Ben Wallace Pistons. Or the Kurt Warner Rams losing to the Pats. Choked-away titles.

I hear you Man..God I wanted that cup in our hands in our home
I'm actually crying now

I'm 2-0 at game 7's. Me not buying a ticket tonight is not excusable

Page number: 45

I turned it off after it was 3-0.

****ty game by Rask but he was hung out to dry. Bulk of the blame should be centred on Bruins 1st line, where the f were those guys? Very strong playoffs by Rask otherwise. Sad it had to end this way.

I had it off at 4-0. Couldn't stomach it.

Well, Bruins fans onto next season. First the offseason to access what is there, and then fill the holes.
Tonight the Blues won.
Still proud of the Boston Bruins.

Well it should be better next year, according to Fenway anyway.
I think they score in the first on better ice. ******* bouncing puck.

Whatever else happened in this series, the Blues played a better game 7. Just plain truth.
So disappointing.
I feel bad for so many players, and Cassidy, but I feel worst for Rask. The haters can have their day, but everyone knows he played well enough - more than well enough - to lead this team to the Cup. The rest of the team weren't as consistent.

Yeah I was thinking before the game whoever lost they'd be out of sights for a while. The Bs will make the playoffs yes but its damn difficult getting out of the first 2 rounds from the Atlantic

I'm not. They are scum.

Bruins came to play tonight. They pushed
But Binnington did his best Tim Thomas miracle
Hate him but he does play incredible after losses

Everything went Blues way this game.

Well the pieces are there, we just need some minor tweaking. Need a legit #2RW first and foremost.

To be fair, did ANYONE see us getting this far? Nope. Not a chance. So next season? It could be another chance.
Never say never.

Yeah, **** that, you don't go from Conn Smythe shoein to scapegoat. It's on the skaters, Rask got us here.

Tell you the truth I would rather go out early then lose like this.As long as it's not against the Leafs Or Montreal.Man how many times has this team **** the bed at home to get eliminated,Blues,Tampa,Montreal,Caps,Hawks,Philly,Carolina.Man I remember the days when next to no one would beat them at home.

Honestly I rather not make the playoffs then lose like this. Hawks win still haunts me now this. Thank God Timmy got me one before i die. Don't know if ill ever see another one. It took blues decades to get one . What's the chances?

Do you think he was great tonight? Cause he wasnt. When it matter, he didnt make the huge stops. Binnington sucked all playoffs, but tonight, when they needed him. He was there.
Would I trade Tukka no! Does he have some demons to slay? Yes

Just a game bro
And I'm not even sure about that
NHE

bingo disgrace effort and these fans who paid good money to see this garbage

Apparently they tried.

he's got to be hurt. how does a guy put up career numbers, well over a point per game for the first time in his career and then totally tank in the playoffs? and it's not like it was just a hot year for him. he passed the eye test all year. He was elite like 3 months ago. you don't drop off that fast. he's got to be hurt

Feel bad for Rask and the sore losers.

That's the beauty of choice.

Well put the cup back in its box then.
Game 8 on Friday

Yup. Even if it's next year (as per Gee Wally or whoever it is), it's going to take me all the way until the Final to give a ****

I'm with you. Maybe next year doesnt make me feel better

I don't know Holtby has owned them.

Page number: 46

Thank you.

How old are you?
I'm 50. I saw one bruins and one Mets so far. No Vikings.

Naw you are doing well.... dont fall off

Another enjoyable season, disappointing end.
Nite people

To me, best Blues was Parayko. Huge defensive series.

Damn more than the pats losing in 07? It does feel like this team let a great opportunity slip by. You know the pats where gonna be back in the super bowl somehow.

Every time I've seen him play in the last few years, I've been more and more impressed. Tons of skill, faceoff animal, and a hockey IQ through the roof. Doesn't surprise me in the least that he was a major part of the B's undoing.

I think this might be the third worst loss in history. 1971, 1930, and 2019

Not Tuukka's fault

welp at least i wont have to sit on my ass watching tv until october now.
so much for home ice. so overrated

Be safe, guys. It's easy for me to say that a million miles away. But please, be safe.

Would love some answers in the pressers but I know that won't happen.
Ready for the injury reports to come piling in within the next few days.

Team should have won game 5 for him.

Funny how the perspective on Binnington changes a little as the game moves on....

Start of 1st Period:
"Good shifts, Binnington will crack just be relentless on him."
"Binnington looks shaky. Not controlling the rebounds."
"Rask looks sharper than Binnington though, and that's a difference maker."
"Honestly, Binnington is lucky more than he is good so far. Everything is being shot right into him."
"need to build off of that and keep on the pressure. binnington is fighting the puck and had some saves that were more luck than anything there."

after the Bruin's failed PP:
"I don't have a good feeling about this. Just don't quite like how it's gone so far. Binnington looks on, PP didn't convert and St. Louis is a great road team"
"Binnington with the loose jersey save."
"Binnington making great stops but also giving up lots of rebounds. Bruins just need to keep this going for 60 and they'll win this"
"Don't listen to NBC.
Their goalie has been decent but we could easily have 2."
"Get a goal on Binnington and he'll fold...Can't let him get confident"
"last thing you want in a game 7 is for the opponents goalie to be the best player in the ice. Need to get one by him before the end of the first"
"Blues defense so sloppy, saved by the goalie so far"
"Binnington just throwing his body around hoping the puck hits him.
Been lucky so far"
"Binnington has done hardly anything"

A little after the Blues first and second goals, the narrative changes...a little:

"Binnington is ****ing dialed in."
"Start hitting binnington"

Side note post...this poster got their wish: "They better not lose 1-0" :lol:

"Binnington stole this period.
Easily could have laid down and died after game 6 and he has been the balls."
"RUN BINNINGTON RUN HIM NOW" (i wonder if this poster and the one a few above have called the Blues 'dirty'...)
"Two flukey goals and then about 8 flukey saves by Binnington. (love how they refuse to give any credit to skill and toughness)
"The Blues are going to be the worst team to win the cup in the modern era if things don't change" (LMAO...does this guy even watch hockey except for his Bruins...lets see: We beat the best regular season team, the Lightning, twice. We beat the 3rd best team in the West in the Playoffs (Sharks), we beat the 4th best team in the West in the playoffs (Jets), we beat a team that even though we were better in the regular season and had home ice, Blues were still underdogs (Stars), and we beat the team that had the 2nd best overall record in the regular season and was the ECF champs....yet we are the 'worst team'? Interesting thought dude.)
"Binnington outplaying Rask by a mile tonite" (Some of their fans really dislike their goalie...)
"I'm not saying they're easy saves, but the guy can never elevate his game in the most critical moments. His rookie counterpart is standing on his head."
"Tuuka has to match Binnington. Binnington made a ton of big saves. Tukka has to close the door now for us to have a chance if not.."
"Just make it 2-1 in the second.
Binnington amazing Rask trash garbage."

Second period, not very much Binnington talk, but I liked this poster's POV...at least some Bruin's fans are intelligent:

"The Blues aren't a crap team and neither is Binnington. It's not easy to make it this far. They've earned it.
I feel entitled to nothing.
The top guns will either step up and take charge of this game or they won't.
Even if they do, it's still not a guarantee.
That's sports."

Then there are the ignorant ones:

'I don't think the NHL wants this. Ratings dropping fast if it keeps up.
Bruins might get a PP... well, if they weren't the Bruins I suppose."

"Berube lol Cannot lose to that goon"

"I don't want to hear for years how Jordan Binnington went into a gm 7 in an enemies barn and played the game of his life to bring STL their first cup.
Make him fold."

3rd Period:

"make some calls for christ sake. you affect the game by putting the whistle away" (LOL, crying for a penalty, POS)

But again, some respect for whomever this is: "I don't want to hear and I'm not going to listen to any whining about the refs, the ice, injuries or anything else. They are playing like **** and that is the only reason why they are going to lose this game and the series. Period."

Lot's more, but this long work day is done, and my ass is tired. Love the comments and thank you as always Harri for doing this!

Is this stupid narrative dead yet?
"Honestly, Binnington is lucky more than he is good so far. Everything is being shot right into him."
You mean a goalie with good positioning who squares up to shots usually gets hit by those shots? Learn hockey.

Was Pasternuts goal in game 6 a PP? I thought that one might have been the only ES goal they had...but not sure they were still a line at that point of the game (Cassidy was mixing up lines IIRC).

Let's GO BLUES!!!
Thanks for the summarization, bradleygt89. It’s funny to see, how all four fan bases thought Binnington was going to collapse against their team:
1. Round, Jets: “Now it’s playoff time. Binnington will come down to earth and fail.”
2. Round, Stars: “Bishop is the best goalie in the league. No chance for Binnington. He will collapse.”
3. Round, Sharks: “Binnington is not a good goalie and had a lot of luck during the first two rounds. The Sharks need to shoot often and he will collapse.”
4. Round, Bruins: “Rask is the best goalie in the league. No chance for Binnington. He will collapse.”
