Bruins game

Nice to see that the Bruins can still generate all this attention.Where have you gone O'Rielly, Schmatz, Wensink, Sheppard, McNab, Jonathan, Park, etc., etc, .............

I like today's team. They don't have a superstars (crosby's ovechkins, etc) but we have a good number of players with above average nhl skills IMO. And the new "kids" are playing with heart. When the chemistry clicks it is like magic and they can (and have) beat anyone, and some of the newer players show tremendous drive. When it doesn't click, well, we saw what happens...they get crushed.
They know what they have to do.

I would've like to see them make a trade for a superstar but doubt anyone would agree with me. I would like the see them trade Tim Thomas for a big name offivensive player. I know Thomas is loved but we have good goal tending beyond him and since he is rated so highly and other teams need good goalies...it could buy us someone special in the goal scoring position ....but that is just me.

Mr. Sandman do you mean you'd rather see them get rid of Tim Thomas because he's having it tough right now or is it because you think Manny Fernandez isn't worth what Tim Thomas is for trade value?

I think they should definately gid rid of Manny because he's got nothing left in him after he blew his knees out again and another one that should absolutely go is Ferrence ... he just plain sucks. If there is a critical turnover in a game you don't have to look very far to see it was his doing.

I like the B's overall even though they're a young team and getting a superstar isn't going to really make a drastic change for them, they just need to get the more experienced players to knuckle down and get back to basics and build off that like before when they were doing good.

Alex Auld is absolutely the best goaltender they have but we can probably say goodbye to him after this year because he's a free agent and Boston already has 2 tenders on contract and they're still looking at Rask for the future.

But I do still miss "The Big Bad Bruins" and I know we'll never see that era again. Ah, the memories ...
