Bruins are a top Eastern team and look like it

Tonight had to be the night we crapped the bed. That early goal sucked the life out of the Canucks

I have family in Boston. It’s a beautiful city. Way better than Van. Don’t hate the city. Hate the team and Bruin fans. 

 

Boston has:

 

- decent beer like sam adans brick red

- good lobster rolls

- less expensive concert tickets than nyc

 

Otherwise it's pretty overrated. Plus boston folks are kinda awful

If the Bruins knew Pederson was damaged goods before trading him, they won the trade 100 times over.  You don't trade a first round pick young power forward who can score and fight.  The worse trade in Canuck history.  The first time of many times the Bruins bended over the Canucks.  Neely helped  build the Bruin that beats the Nucks in 2011.   Neely reached the super star status in Bruins history like Orr and Esposito.  

I was so happy the Caucks drafted him and sad when they traded him.  I wondered what his career would be like if he stayed.  The worse trade in Canucks history.

 

Neely played three seasons for the Canucks.  He averaged about 17 goals and 34 points and was close to that each year.  The Canucks hoped for big things but at the end of year three they were not obvious on the horizon and the Canucks had never had a 100 point player before.  The trade worked out for Boston but I don't think Vancouver was stupid when they made the deal.

Wow we are sloppy!

[MikeyD]

The one time in the history of the NHL they get a high sticking goal right but had that gone to review it would have counted.

[Chickenspear]

Miller's fighting it tonight.

[Breadnbutta]

Lindy and Petey both-4

 

Not a good day for the Elias'

 

Ironically, both players are touted for their defensive play. So yall can relax, it's just a dud.

[DarthMelvin]

Wow the refs put the whistles away???

[MJDDawg]

Pasternak making things happen every shift.

 

And Petey wants Pasternak money?

[Canucks]

We need Phil!!!

[Bobby James]

Garland and Joshua have both looked solid (Garland in particular). 

 

Good effort even when down by 4

[Canuckfanforlife82]

It also comes down to preparation and the Canucks just weren’t prepared to play. Didn’t show up and didn’t want to play tonight. Eventually you have to learn to play against teams like Boston. This team has no ties to the 2011 team and yet there is an intimidation factor the franchise can’t seem to shake. Eventually you just needs players that won’t accept these type of games.
