NHL Season 2023-24

The Bruins radio guys have been barking all game….

Brick and Jack on NESN were as well. B's did not play with confidence. I have to congratulate the Leafs and the Toronto media for creating a false narrative of a team at odds with each other ready to pack it in. The Bruins' players bought it hook, line, and sinker. The coaches warned them, but the players didn't fully buy in. I hope the B's ignore the noise coming out of Toronto and focus on playing their game.

This might be the most bizarre hockey game I've ever seen.

The Leafs are playing terribly. Fortunately for them, the Bruins decided not to play at all through two periods.
Stupid Leafs. Ruined my plans for Thursday night. Must have been watching a different game, I saw the Leafs outshoot them 11 - 2 in the first period and never give the cubs a chance to play their game. And for the first time in the series the Leafs were not out-goalied, not that Swayman had a bad game, he was excellent as well. Collars must be getting a bit tight in Beantown...

Nah. Not really.

The Bruins didn't show up last night. They usually do. Odds are they will again. Last night would have been an easy game for either team to win if they'd just connected better, made more aggressive entries, and SHOT. Toronto started hot and then fizzled. Boston fizzled and then... fizzled some more.

I have to believe the next game or two won't be like that.

My favourite part of last nights game was watching the linesman dust Marchand and watching him whine about it. He dove like an Olympian thinking he could draw a penalty.
It's the small things in life we need to appreciate! LOL

When I played beer league hockey we had a word for players like Marchand. I can't post it on this family show, but it starts with chicken and ends with ****.
