I heard on Sirius XM NHL station the other day that Bruin's management is not happy with Hamilton. Also Dougie may not be happy in Boston either. Seems Dougie doesnt like the big city atmosphere or the press.

During the radio segment. According to the Bruin's Beat Sports Reporter. Boston thought they were getting a Bruin type "D" man. A Big Hard hitting, gritty, in your face "D" man. Having seen Dougie's game up close. Now they realize that, that may not be a big part of Dougie's game. He has been shying away from contact and passing up hits. The talk out of Boston (from Bruins Beat Reporter) is that Hamilton may be moving on a la Tyler Sequin if things dont change in the not so distant future.

I found the interview extremely interesting.

I guess he looks like Tarzan and plays like Jane...

Any wonder JT can't get in any groove, different line mates every night....he needs some PP goals to get going.

Grabner looks real good with him, plenty of shots, but he doesn't look ready for it. He's gotta close.

Not just a 2nd line center... A legit great one... My god if he keeps this up for the season... 70 point guy easily. i don't wanna get ahead of myself tho. Didn't he have three assists the other night?

Neilsen is playing well, but I wouldn't go that far...

Did PMB miss an empty net?

Forecheck looks good, but I'm thinking it's that buffalo is just bad. How doesthat hold on mMartin not get called? That would be holdin in the NFL.

Our defense still looks like crap....and it really SHOULDN'T, against this team....

Our defense is crap but our offense should get us to win games as long as they play with intensity. This Buffalo team wants a win badly they will be pushing.

Read the rest of the post. I'm not saying he is. I said IF he somehow kept this up, he'd be looking like one.

Yes, and in that period, he's just a millisecond behind jt

He had 7 attempted shots and 5 of them on net. He's clearly clicking just fine with Tavares.

After literally like 6 Clutterbuck shifts since the high stick, Howie and Butch are questioning if he has played since the incident I love this duo.

So far this game is a pretty bad display of hockey all around.

They need to turn it up a bit... need to play with heart, and show some grit.

They just are not talented enough not too.

This is one of those games they best get the next goal, wow

In fairness, John Scott is playing. He brings down the average hockey skill an exponential amount. Somebody should take him out back and put him down.

Team got a lift from zeeker Martin and clutterbuck. I liked that line

Are they forgetting its Miller down there...Sabres can easily steal this game...JT is not himself out there. Few nice passes for sure. Its looking like pond hockey and we are all over them...yet its tied...hmmmm we know how this ends most times!

3-2?

My guess is they got most of that lift from seeing their best skill player and captain have to go out there and get feisty himself, since nobody else can seem to do it. I think that Zeeker/Marty/Clutter shift was a byproduct of Tavares' roughing up of Foligno.

JT needs a playmaker. KO and Grabner are not good compliments neither can accept or make a pass.

First of all: boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!! boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!! Our fans are useless, too....too bad I'm sick, or I'd be there tonight cursing them out. They should be beating this pile of scheiss 8-1.

Second of all: Scott is the reason why wussies who write about hockey for ESPN write about fighting. Fighting is a good thing when there's a reason....which they've stolen with the instigator rule. Fighting is crap when it's the only thing you can do, and there's no other reason for you to be wearing a NHL uniform. Put it this way....Boulton ONLY dresses because Scott is in the lineup....enough said.

Third of all: this team scores ONE goal every night. Against a good team, they'd have ZERO chances to score. ZERO. The Isles are not "good" yet, and they won't be until they have three other QUALITY players besides Travis Hamonic on the back end. It's great that they're fast....but in the back, they need to be big and fast. Until that happens, they will struggle against garbage teams.
