Boston vs Canes Game 3 Friday 7pm


Recommended Posts

Wow…. Next day thoughts. I feel like I just watched Conor McGregor or Tyson in their prime. That game was heavy weight hitting central. Canes lead 2-0, out scoring the Bruins 26-3 this year, Koochie came in and played well, and Svech Killed a guy. 

…..and the crowd…WOW! One of THE BEST in person hockey experiences of my life. If haven’t gone…you need to. 
 

Thread 3….Let’s fuging Go!

Bruins starting rookie goalie Friday night and Lindholm out.

https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/2352656

The Boston Bruins will start rookie goaltender Jeremy Swayman in Friday's Game 3 against the Carolina Hurricanes, head coach Bruce Cassidy confirmed.

Linus Ullmark started the first two games of the series, losing both contests and allowing eight goals on 57 shots.

Swayman and Ullmark split games evenly during the regular season, with each netminder starting 39 contests. Swayman finished with a .914 save percentage and 2.41 goals-against average, while Ullmark managed a .917 save percentage and 2.45 goals-against average.

Defenseman Hampus Lindholm won't play Friday after exiting Game 2 early. He was on the receiving end of a massive hit from Andrei Svechnikov midway through the contest.

The Bruins trail 2-0 against the Hurricanes in the first-round series and haven't mustered much on either end of the ice. The Hurricanes are outscoring them 10-3.

Lindhom ain’t playing again in this series. His brain was scrambled(it was the ice if you watch cause svech didn’t actually ever make any kind of substantial head contact. His head hit the ice hard.) there is no way any medical professional should let him play in the next 2-3 weeks.

Didn’t help that Ullmark slammed his ass back on the ground.

RBAs lips are tight...Won't get much.... Anderson has been skating.... He may be able to backup Koch this weekend.

Is Anderson practicing or skating? If he's been practicing that's a huge step in the right direction.

Yeah, that was dumb. Don't go fight. Don't go fight. Even though the guy couldn't see straight.

Nah. He was trying to keep him upright and Lindholm ended up taking him down too. Lindholm was conscious but gone, his ears are still ringing I’m sure.

That same thing happened to me in high school during a basketball game, slammed my head in the bleachers going after a lose ball and I was fuged, I did the whole reaching arms upward (telltale sign of a concussion) and a teammate mistook it for me asking for help up. He yanked me up and I fell right back down… came back into the game 5 minutes later. In hindsight definitely should have gotten checked.

Frankly I wouldn’t even play svech tomorrow. Put Stepan in and completely fug their plan of attack.

    • Adam Thielen had 1000 yards with rookie Bryce. I guess he's using that as comparison. Just kidding. Calm down. 
    • We definitely improved from 2024 to 2025, to me the results were less important than the roster in that regard. It's better. It's still a very bad roster but continuing to be better is the goal. The changes we are talking about at QB are about spending LESS resources. Not picking up Bryce's 5th is a big potential savings. Significantly better QB's have been had in recent years for half or less than what Bryce will get in 2026. To say nothing of an extension(the ridiculous subject of this thread) which would cripple roster building by saddling it with a bloated QB contract for an awful QB. The price for Bryce, I mean who is even making that argument anymore? I don't think you are seeing anyone in this thread discussing trading up to #1 for Mendoza.  We are talking about cheap backup and FA QB's and Day 2 and 3 draft guys. That is literally tied to the idea of roster building. IMPROVE at QB while you build the roster so that we can actually potentially attract a franchise QB or when you make that big move up(SF for Lance) that your roster is so good that the impact is largely negated.  After all, improving over Bryce is an extremely low bar to hit. Let's not assume that standing pat would have resulted in a sudden spurge in good decision making. Don't forget who was making all those roster calls at the time. Bryce or not, we would have fuged it up in some way because we had idiots at the helm. We may still yet. Also, it's easy to say we can't get in the habit of switching QB's like that but there are also plenty of situations where that flip was the correct decision. Richardson to Jones, Rosen to Murray, Fields to Williams, Lance to Purdy(technically some nuance to this), etc. There is no real danger of Bryce leaving and suddenly becoming an elite QB. We all do know this, no matter how big of a Bryce stan you may be. His ceiling is middling game manager. So there isn't some crazy risk of moving on.
    • Honestly. You can see it on the field. Bryce will literally skip a pass on the ground rather than throw a contested catch to XL. Especially when it's one where XL would have to fight back to the ball. Coker is actually really good at that. Coker lacks real NFL speed (not a small thing), but he maxes out in most other categories.
