This is gonna be ugly for the Bruins if the trend of these 2 teams as of late continues! 2 teams going in complete opposite directions right now!

Another 'keep your head up' night for Marchand. I hope they can just redirect aggression back at Nylander and Marner, instead of dumb confrontations. Use the Reaves shifts to try to score.

So with the general feeling this board seems to have for the B's at this present time i imagine a 12-0 LeRf victory is in store. I imagine Nostrils will get 9 gls and Bert a hat trick. Swayman will start but will be pulled after the 1st period after TO pumps 5 gls by him, to be replaced by Leenus who will promptly give up 5 gls in the 2nd prompting Monty to put Jeremy back in for the 3rd. The 3rd will start with a furious B's push which will lead to a Grzelcyk gl but is challenged by TO for an illegal stick used by Matt. Referee's Charron & L'Ecuyer along with linesman Cormier & Fournier get together and confer and after grabbing a ruler and measuring Gryz's stick decide that it is indeed too long and the gl is negated. This takes the air out of the B's balloon and thoughts of a comeback are vanquished, from there the LeRfs pad to their lead with Bert getting 2 empty netters. There is much glee in Hogtown as the media is overcome with joy at the prospect of TO catching the B's for 2nd place in the Atlantic and home ice in their 1st round matchup which Nick Kypreos confidently says is a foregone 4 game sweep by Canada's team!! Joe Haggerty is late putting out the game report, falling asleep and getting locked in the press buffett room.

Joe Haggerty is late putting out the game report, falling asleep and getting locked in the press buffett room. I hate when the Bruins lose to any of the following: the Pens, New Jersey, Carolina, the Panthers, Dead Thangs, Arizona, both New York teams, Buffablow, Columbus, Philly, the Sens, Tampa, Ducks, Caps, Canucks, Nashville, Flames, the Jimmy Kracken Corn And I Don't Cares, the Wild, Dallas, San Blowje, Jets, Blues, LA, Avs, Edmonton, Chicago, especially the Habs but right behind them I hate when Toronto has anything up on the Bruins. Doesn't happen often but when it does, man, it's have a Tim Hortons double double in the morning, go to the can for a BAWOOSH, leave then some unsuspecting sukka walks in right afterwards before the cloud has cleared bad. The Lufas bring out the best in the B's even more so away. I can't remember any skating dead shows when they've met and we're not gonna see one tonight especially after last game. Of course, the Golf, Leafs, Golfs will win this year's Cup. How do I know? The GTA sports media told everyone after last Saturday's SO win over the Rangers. They've been playing well lately and did look good but allowed a late tying goal which seemed to get glossed over in the orgy of joy. Put me in the camp of regular season problems is a good tonic for the playoffs. The Bruins will ice the game tonight with an empty netter. Watch.

I'm rushing to the nearest Indian Casino to place a bet as if you do the opposite of Nitestradamus, you can win a lot of money.

Nitestradamus also proclaimed these gems over the years "Dewey beats Truman, count on it" "There is no chance we get to the moon. Okay, one and it's a snowball's chance in hell." "Come on, it's a fucking Texas parade, and you want extra security for Kennedy? Enjoy the open view, Jack" "Colonel Custer, it's a few scattered Indians. Just cross the fucking river already." "Yes, pull Tretiak, the kid Myshkin will come through." "no, no, put in Burton, Darrell...the kid will be great." "Come on Mac, leave Buckner out there to enjoy the win (Don Baylor actually told Mac that too..scary)" "Pete, if you run the ball, you're a fucking idiot...throw it and Pats will be surprised" "Don't pick Bird, Red what are you doing, the guy is a joke from French whatever the fuck that place is."

Leafs / Oilers / Leafs. Nice little run, ending with the Penguins on Sat. Gotta rack up a few points here boys.
I am sure the B's are laying low at the trade deadline, but hope for at least 1 D. Don't have much to trade, as the cupboard is pretty bare.
Got a few beers and a bag of chips to keep me company.

I think they win this one.
Losses: Calgary, Washington, Tampa (1), Seattle, LA (1), Calgary (1), Vancouver(1), Seattle (1), NYI.
Regulation losses to playoff teams: 0 Loser points vs playoff teams: 3 Losses to non-playoff teams: 6
Wins: Vancouver, Dallas, Edmonton, Vegas.
Percentage of wins that came against playoff teams: 100%. Points % against playoff teams since the all-star break: 78.6%
I think there's a very real component of the shitty hockey we've seen over the last month and a half that is boredom from a team that has lost so rarely over the last 22 months that they really couldn't give a shit against teams that aren't playoff opponents. They don't care. They had the best regular season in history last year and because the Panthers got hot at the right time (and are proving it wasn't a fluke by being the best team in the league this year), they lost in OT in game 7, and ever since, the narrative has been that they are disappointing chokers. When they have to play a team that the league thinks is a real contender, they go out and remind them what Bruins hockey looks like. When they have to play a wannabe, they go through the motions content to get in and see what happens.
Whether that's 1% or 70% of what we've been watching, I think it's there.
