Anthony Travalgia: A near perfect October

Best of luck to Studnicka in Vancouver. Hopefully he can turn his game around there. Glad the B's finally ended that experiment.

Great start continues. Hopefully Krejci is good to go for the next game.

Got the Pens, Rangers, Leafs, Blues, and Flames coming. We should see what this team is made of in this stretch. I don't see any reason why the B's can't hang with these teams.

Should be some exciting hockey. Sounds like Krejci will be out at least two of those games though.

Time to see what Zacha can bring down the middle.

All he needs to do is play a responsible defensive game and get the puck to Hall or Pasta. The rest of the story writes itself.

Looking forward to a hopefully good game tonight. Who else is tuned in?

Breaking News... Bruins can score.

Bruins played terrible defense last night and still managed to win.
Hampus went into Beast mode

What a comeback. That was an exciting game to watch. Every skater except for 1 forward and 4 D had a point last night. Contributions from all up and down the roster. Hampus took that game on his shoulders.

Really like seeing secondary scoring come through. Its been missing or at the very best inconsistent the last few years.

Well,.......................... Someone has to be negative
Was hoping to see Carlo turn it around this year but he still looks awfully shakey with the puck, Other than that there is NOTHING !!! Team is a Wagon right now, Next Week adding Krejci & Chucky we will see the Team Healthy for the 1st time (other than Swayman, hoping it's not as bad as it looked)

When is the last time you saw a goalie get pulled and return to the game then get the win?

Edit to add:
Just read that Swayman was seen walking without crutches after the game. Hopefully it looked worse then what is. Looked like it could be really bad.

Part of me thinks Carlo is playing a bit scared due to the head injuries. He is either skittish and avoiding contact, or he was not ready to return. Worries me a bit.

Swayman was able to walk last night with an ice pack. Could be a hyper-extension. I would expect to see a goalie recalled before next game.

5 Concussions since 2017. The Bruins need to seriously think about a potential successor for Carlo. It's getting scary for him.

Kinkaid recalled. Looks like Swayman will be resting for a while.

Yep.

Last night was a great effort. Pasta's goal was just filthy.

That was disgusting. I was between puking and screaming for vengeance at the same time. Absolute filth.

I also liked seeing Greer step in after Frederic got hit. He has been an excellent addition.

Why, why, WHY...did the Bruins just sign Mitchell Miller? Yes, the things he did were when he was a "dumb kid"...but with everything going "right" with the Bruins, why make this VERY controversial move? Let's shine a VERY UNNECESSARY spotlight on the Bruins now...the players are going to get questioned about it, do they agree, was there any consultation from management, etc., etc.

I facepalmed when I saw the signing. Not what the organization needs. They committed to him for 3 years too.

Sweeney: "I haven't done anything stupid in a while, better fix that".

Yeah, and why now? They have the entire fanbase behind them, they are trying to sign one of the best players in the league to an extension...why risk the guaranteed negative publicity and possible internal ramifications now of all times.

STUPID! There is NO upside to doing this now. Oh, but look at what he did in the USHL last season...optics be damned!

I'm right there with ya man. Its a bonehead move and completely unnecessary. Should be interesting to see how they respond to it during the next press conference.

I think from a PR and momentum stand point it is absolutely stupid. From an organizational standpoint, your throwing a dart at a promising hockey player.

The media won’t care about him after this weekend. He will be hated for sure but He won’t see a Bruins uniform this year.

The Bruins are ranked last in prospects. This kid just ranked third in the USHL in points, as a defenseman.

Kid was or is an absolute scum bag. You can only hope he learned from his mistake.

It is funny though. Sweeney has had a couple weeks of not being in the scope of Bruins fans.

He’s like “well this is boring, what’s the strangest/dumbest thing I can do right now”
