One thing I can say three games in is that Palmeri looks absolutely putrid. Beau was pretty awful last night as well imo. Hopefully they get their crap together…

Beau may have been the worst player on the ice last night. He looked atrocious. He cut Palmieri off and caused that turnover on the 2nd SJ goal and it was obvious from the other side of the rink

Ooof. Guy just can’t stay healthy.

Probably for the best though. Romanov would've put him on IR for longer.

That trade is looking better with each game.

As predicted, Romanov is quickly turning into a fan favorite. He'll be a huge favorite immediately after the first time he really smokes someone with an open-ice hit

Honestly didn’t know anything about him and was indifferent to negative about the trade due to that. Hopefully he keeps it up.

I didn't realize Trotz was on the same level as Steve Sterling Kidding aside It's nice to see them scoring more against the weaker teams. I remember when they would still only score 2 or 3 goals against bad teams and still win like 2-1 3-1. Having Sororkin back there will allow them to be more aggressive on the attack that's for sure. Whoever said that about Palms being toast I was thinking the same thing last night watching him. I recorded the game and watched it after getting home from the Yanks game. He is more of a 3rd liner at this point

Just in terms of offense Barry is on Steve Sterling level or Rex Ryan.


Sorokin should help with the offense being more aggressive.

Palms does not look good so far and I agree is more of a third line player.

Hopefully he’s just having a rough patch and works himself out of it. If not that’s a hole we have in our lineup for quite a few years…

This is my reaction to a lot of these contracts.

brutal take... literally amazing what you guys "See" during these games. Unless a player scores they were "terrible".

Clutterbuck and Beau were 2 of the better players on the ice last night.

Palmieri was just a foolish trade... and then sign. Taylor hall would have been perfect for what we needed.. Palmieri is a non event.

Clutter had a good game along with cizikas but I’ll completely disagree with you on Beau. He looked lost out there on both sides of the puck. Not sure what part of his game would quantify his take as being brutal?

Clutterbuck was good. Actually, the entire fourth line was good.

But Tito was more or less poop last night. Which ain’t a big deal, as all players have poop games.

It is what it is.

To be fair, none of us (including you) were singing that tune when Palmieri sent the Bruins (and Hall) to the golf course in ‘21.

Palms could have done even more if Barry was not in love with Leo on the 1st line.

Lou should take a second round draft choice and package it with Beau so someone will take him off our hands. With Beau and Palms in our line up we are going nowhere.
Two dominating games against must win opponents and this thread is still the same. Can't make this shat up.
