LOL @ Ramo apologists.
yeah, and if this was Hiller, he wouldn't even have made the great save and we'd be down 4-3.

I'm a goalie sympathizer, no doubt. But I know I'm objective enough to call them out when it is relevant to do so.
The Chara goal was soft. No screen and not deflected, very stoppable.

Given my bias I find it difficult to be objective but I am also aware when a goalie is playing well. Ramo's made more great saves tonight than he has let in goals. I'm fine with that, but I'm not going to stop pointing out when bad goals are bad.

Dumb penalty. So frustrating when they take those in the offensive zone

Don't have a good feeling about this.

Hope the PK can prove me wrong.

Well, that definitely was a penalty. Let's kill this off Flames. Show the Bruins we aren't as horribly bad as everything thinks we are.

31% is a crazy good PP percentage.

At game live. Other side of the rink. Also. Mildly hammered.

There definitely, 100%, unequivocally was a screen. And Chara crossed through it as he made his shot. The Flame defender was pushed back by Krejci, and as Ramo tried to push off to frame himself he had to put his blocker up to brace for the players encroaching on his space. This, and the fact he couldn't see the release through the screen, threw off his reaction and it made it through.

I got that from the slow-mo replay. I can't imagine how difficult that was in real time.

I don't have a problem with commenting on plays, but blanket statements like "he's aweful" when he's made some stellar saves to keep the team in the game is hardly accurate and just a sign of someone being overly dramatic based on them not winning... there are two professional teams out there after all, just because the other team isn't rolling over doesn't mean its an awful performance by players, sometimes they just make great plays too, or get lucky bounces.

60% PK over the last 8 or so games is awful. Irresistible force meets very movable object

Ugh. Teams enter the zone on the PP so easy against us while we spend half the PP trying to get in.
