Series Talk: ECSF-Florida Panthers vs Boston Bruins (FLA leads 3-2)

[Ratsreign]

It’s funny when you see Leaf fans posting in here with their usual trash takes.

The universe is more in balance again. Leafers jumping onto the Bs wagon was causing a disturbance.

I thought once it was 2-1 Florida got better and better. I’m shocked they never got another. Bruins were just barely hanging on down the stretch

This was more of what i expected all series. I still don’t think Boston can hold off Florida very long. Once they get going they don’t stop pouring it on

Rhino looked snake bitten. And Swayman doing his thing.

I don't really have much of an opinion on Montgomery or like/dislike towards the guy but this is funny as shit. The absolute madness he must be feeling to do that

great game by bruins.. tons of heart.,.. biggest loss is we can't use that face punch meme...

We shall see if the panthers can do the hard thing and thats close the series..

surprised we don't have an OT yet.... maybe game 6

Bruins better without Marchand? Is Brad holding the team back?

Just like Matthews with the Leafs back in that series thread? Lol

Too soon to bring that up. We'll talk if the Bruins win game 6

 

[BB79]

Just when you think they're down and out..

FLA strategy to get in the heads of the Bruins has also transfered over to the fans. Crazy that so ,much talk is about the reffing and hockey players being rough, when the on-ice play has so heavily favored FLA.

Yes, Bennett should have been suspended, especially given that Soucy got suspended. DoPS is inconsistent. No argument. Would Bennett being suspended and/or Marchand being in the last game make a difference in the outcome of the series? Not a chance.

FLA is more talented and tougher than the Bruins. Same could be said for the 2011 Bruins, when so many opposing fans were whining about the refs and the thuggish nature of the Bruins. Bruins fans loved it when their team was the hammer instead lf the nail. The hammer wins Cups. The nails make excuses,

Recall that it was Aaron Rome of Vancouver who threw the series biggest hit knocking Horton out. And other than the Sedins, the canucks were largely happy to play chippy and physical hockey.

That the bruins were big and strong and physical is true.

I don’t recall a bruin cheap shotting a Canuck and knocking him out of the game. Calling out Bennett for his punch that concussed marchand isn’t an excuse…it’s what happened.

Same as it ever was


Lmaolol @ the lady in first row, “is he having a seizure?”

The hit on Horton was freaking brutal.
Didn’t the Bs return the favor on Raymond(?), broken back or something? Early in Game 7(?). Idk iirc

that’s the same look as when he teaches it during practice

Game 6. Was a very awkward hit for sure. Raymond was bent over and got crunched into the boards backwards. Not sure how dirty it was though.

It was boarding, or not? I don’t really remember anymore. I remember that seemed to suck all the life out of the ‘nucks, though.

 

[Just Rude]

Great win the B’s. Would be amazing if they forced Game 7, just for the theatre alone.

[BruinLVGA]

That Bruins 0-25 stat when down 3-1 in a series weighs like a thousand tons, but I am glad that they at least won another game just now. Let‘s hope they can do it again (and again…).

 

[danpantz]

Sets up perfectly for Tkachuk to dance on my grave at home yet again while simultaneously ruining my weekend.

Good description made by you above.

I’ve watched that series a thousand times lmao. I remember it all.

 

[goflyakite]

because I don’t become an emotional head case over things that happen to my team on the ice. And because I realize you can not look at a bang-bang play in super slo-mo and still frames and base judgements off of them.

If this is about Bennett/Marchand it doesn’t take slo-mo to acknowledge what happened.

 

[He Is Knocking]

Yay..Bs win whining is down!

Lawyering for wins works!

2 great series from East. let's see if NYR and FLA can close it in 6.

 

[BTO]

Amazing what can happen when both teams play by the same set of rules, eh? Methinks the league had a talk with the series supervisor who subsequently had a talk with the teams. Last thing the league needs is to have Bennett concuss another Bruin. Mind you he still has two more games so.
