Ty Anderson: 'Game management' dooms B's vs. Canes

Good! Maybe this direct criticism will result in Lindholm returning to some semblance of the fill-in #1 d-man he was when McAvoy was out to start last season because he has been a shadow of that player since.

Bruins might want to try and stay out of the penalty box...

Out of the 5 penalties, 2 were garbage…including the tripping on Frederic which resulted in a PP goal.
Up the tempo in the third and close it out.

I sincerely hope the Bruins don’t get the same “special needs” refs the rest of the season.

Marchand is a beast!

Not to mention heavily outshot. Swayman kept the B's in this one.

I would say the 6-1 PP opportunities contributed to the shot differential.
But yeah, Sawyman has been great this year.

Yeah there were a lot of PP shots. Swayman needs an extension like yesterday.

Bruins with a 5-0 lead but man they look like a mess in the 2nd period.

Badly outshot and would be a LOT closer if not for Ulmark.

After the 5th goal, they put it in neutral.
Ullmark is on his game today

Lindholm dealt to the Canucks. Steep price. Makes me wonder what the ask from the B's was. I read a few mock trades but nothing that seemed concrete. Worst one I saw was 2025 1st, Frederic and Poitras. If the actual ask was anywhere near that I am glad Sweeney stayed away from that trade.

Agreed, would have loved to have Lindhom but not at that price.

Add a little depth, maybe trim a little fat, and let it buck. They have done well thus far with who they have, give them a shot at translating it into playoff success. I dont foresee any giant moves by Sweeney unless there is an unbelievably low price for someone.

I agree.

Expectations were not high after losing Bergeron and Kreiji - so this is all gravy.

Let it ride.
