I know. It’s one of those what do you do now moments.

Good call, Francis. Don't understand what Marchand was thinking with that stare-down. Weird time to try those mind games.

I remember Theo blowing kisses at an opposing bench after a goal and then the other team came back hard and won.

I'm still thinking about that play brodie made to prevent the clear cut breakaway moments after marchand scored on the breakaway.

huge play

Boston with more giveaways than Calgary? That's a good sign

The issue isn’t Bennett - its that the other first rounder on the line is a floater. Maybe Bennett between Czarnik and Rinaldo could work. Lots of speed there.
Rinaldo is awful.

I agree with you but I also recognize the chemistry Bennett and Dube have so I understand why dammage is so choked.

I think the answer is to toss Lucic on the 4th line and see how that looks.

My rant? It was like one post and three sentences. I'm still not convinced that it was the best idea to give him up (he could be depth for the playoffs), but at the time that I said what I said, I wasn't aware that he couldn't be waived and sent to Stockton for ice time. That's something that changes the situation considerably.

Knowing that he can't be sent down, it was undoubtedly the right move to give one of the defensemen a fresh start in San Jose.

I don't base my judgement of any poster on one opinion, but that's your choice.

Bruins fans think pushing a guy down who has the puck is a penalty.

One thing I’ve noticed so much this year is how much time it takes for the flames to clear their own zone. Also, Marchand is a ######...

Every team that plays boston should have that marchand highlight reel loaded up.

Play it as a segment every single game against the Bruins.

The guy is a menace.

That slewfoot on Brassard was one of the most unnecessary, predatory plays ever
