Oh you mean the one where he was talking about the bruins but acting like he was talking about the panthers? Yeah that was great, Boston has been so shit this season it’s hysterical
I’ll take boring lame-o Colby Armstrong over PK Subban any day of the week. PK is so beyond obnoxious, thinking he’s funny with stupid cliches and catch phrases
Soon as you saw the schedule you had to know this is how it was gonna go. Defending champs home opener vs backup goalie, this game looked how it should look. As for Korp, last season Stolarz looked bad for us the first 4-6 starts with terrible tracking and rebound control. Luongo worked with him and he finished with better numbers than Bob. Maybe your goalie coaches can do the same thing. I got a good laugh at the bit about Tkachuk, like, don't marry a 304 and then complain she's a 304. Chucky will look you straight in the eye and tell you he's gonna get under your skin so it's up to the opposing players to handle that, but I get it from your POV as well. Until we had Bennett & Tkachuk I hated guys like Kucherov kicking our ass every year. I would not even be a little worried about your team man, whoever was served up to the Panthers tonight was gonna get waxed. Until age/wear takes it's toll Florida is the team to beat, and honestly after 30 years of not winning crap, I am just gonna enjoy it while it lasts. And at least the crowd gave you all some material should we meet in the playoffs with that "we want Swayman" chant. That was dumb on our part lol. GG keep grinding content!
This night was the first time since I’ve started watching the bruins ten years ago where for a second I went, “shit… if we need to rebuild, we’re in a very bad spot”. Zadorov, Lindholm, Korpisalo… those deals could be really really rough, and we have very few players who we could actually sell off in a selling scenario who would actually have significant value. Never even crossed my mind until now. But tonight they looked so incredibly mediocre. No offensive talent outside one player who is extremely one dimensional. I am worried we become the new Minnesota Wild, perpetually stuck in the middle of the league.
Coaching issue, how have they not figured out the panthers at all. Been way too long at this point. Not gonna judge after game 1, but this was not good
Well, yknow, how do you plan around horrible officiating? It’s Kelly Sutherland. He doesn’t know what interference is, hell, I don’t think he knows what the rules of hockey are.
I don't think it had anything to do with changing. We all knew this was gonna happen. 1st of the year. No sway. Banner raising etc .. calm down, coaching is not the issue 1 game in... Give it some time
Yeah, I agree with the people saying the officiating is crooked towards Florida in general, but it’s almost like Monty told them to just go out there and goon it up for the first period of the game. I believe that he needs to have a better handle on some stuff.
It looked like they were trying to adjust to the forecheck but Florida is an absolute beast in that area. I saw more moves by the D when they were cut off from their break out passes, so we weren't just handing it back to them. But we still looked inept trying to break out, and we did hand it back to them way more than we should have. That I think has more to do with the Wings awareness on the boards, they need to do a better job getting position on the F2. Florida was skating right by our wings and cutting off those passes.
Honestly I'm more optimistic about this than everyone in here. The way I look at it is, over half the team sleepwalked through this, backup in goal, and it was 6 : 4? I can live with that. I feel like it can only go up from here and I feel there's a very good chance it will as the new guys build chemistry, everyone gets up to game shape, potsy comes back and maybe Lysell gets a callup, sway in net etc... Also I thought the pp actually looked pretty good at times once they got set up.
Also is it just me or did Hampus genuinely look a lot more like what he did 2 years ago? Some significant improvement there. Really liked the decision to put both Lohrei and Hampus on the 2nd PP, you'd be kinda wasting them if one of them didn't get PP time. Zacha also had a pretty good game. A lot of small good plays. And a sniperoony n' cheese.
Oh, it could have been a lot worse... Given how our D let Korpisalo be LIT UP. Box score says 35 shots on goal, but it felt much higher to me. Just in his house, watching his TV, and eating his popcorn. Also, was Pasta even THERE? Yeah, "fifty percent." I hate to say it, but it felt like I was watching an AHL game.
I think Korpisalo looked okay... everyone in front of the net was so SLLLLLOWWWWWW. Nobody could complete a pass. The puck was a hot potato almost every time it touched a B's stick. The Panthers were everything we needed to be.
You thought he looked okay he let rebounds out that he didn't even have.. he couldn't focus on the puck if his life depended on it He's a horrible goaltender...
@@joeymaterese8095 I said okay, not good. Probably trying to be optimistic that we have to rely on him as BU goalie all season. Seriously though... that golden mask is stupid! I bet a normal cage would have helped tracking for him. I agree... he lost the puck way too much. Bad rebounds happen. The combo was hard to watch.
Game 1s First Star of the Game: BUTTCHEEKS Thank God that we have 81 more games… Can we put Geekie in the Penalty Box and play on the PK for the whole game?
My biggest concern from that game wasn’t the crumbling to the forecheck, wasn’t the leaky goalie, wasn’t even half speed offense…. What the heck happened to our defensive structure that their third line was putting on a cycling clinic to the point that they seemed to be changing out skaters in the first period during it. Was horrendous.
Weasels are great animals who are clever, tenacious, ferocious, and play above their weight class. Sure, I think calling someone a weasel is a compliment. If not, then Brad has been one for over a decade, so jfc, stop with the tears!
@@coreyk98 Out of all the teams in the league I thought I'd hear crying from about playing dirty or "being classless",. Boston wouldn't have been in my top twenty guesses. Y'all acting like some pathetic has-beens right now.
Elias Lindholm had a few good chances, personally I think zadorov, both lindholms, and korpisalo looked decent considering season opener against the panthers. team was slow and needs to step up. Frederic and beecher looked good to, definitely disappointed but im still confident they step it up, if it stays the game by game 5 then we have some issues not fixed by game 10/November something needs to happen. Korpisalo also needs to track the puck better
the first two goals by cats were bounced rebounds, and the Pasta goal was lucky too. however the shot proportion in the opening period just showed how bad the B's looked like.
Minimum Jones is classic! What a beauty. I used to call Nick Ritchie Low Energy Nick. Jones kind of reminds me of him. What are they doing to these guys in Duck Land?
We were obviously not ready to play the game of hockey and decided to join in on the panthers celebration last night senseless to go into any details at this point until we see some trends that unfold. Let's see where we are next week at this time and we can go from there. Final score 6-4 did not in any shape or form indicate this was ever close no big deal yet. Rock on and turn the page better days ahead.
The goalies job is the first puck on net. Not giving up body position in front would fucking help. Korpi couldn’t track pucks cause there was always two panthers at the net with two bruins behind those panthers players. It was embarrassing.
It was the first game of the year and they were not ready to go. And they had many games last year that they didn't look ready to play in the first period. I am seeing a pattern with Montgomery, that I will be keeping a closer eye on. On the players, I agree 100 with your assement of the forwards. They kept all the big tough guys, but they looked useless against the rattiness of the pathers. when will they learn they won't fight you, and to stand up to a team like this you have to play on the edge. Don't go headhunting but lay them out with an extra stride or a extra second or two after the puck is gone. What are they afraid of, too much turtling by fake ass tough guys?
I agree with most of your comments except when you called out Frederic for asking Tkachuk to fight . You said he should have known he would get an instigator penalty. A few minutes before that you said that Greer should have been called for that which I agree with. So how is Greer not called and Frederic is? What standard did the refs commit to? None it’s the lets give the B’s all the marginal calls standard .. while the game by Boston was b.s so was the quality of the refs in this game!
I will not overreact to a bad swayman game on Thursday… I will not overreact to a bad swayman game on Thursday… I will not overreact to w bad swayman game on Thursday…
I think people are forgetting how we won games last year, we had a TON of games that looked like this, hasn’t changed much, we control maybe 25% of the game, score a few, just enough, and then sway bails us out and makes 35 saves for the win, we just didn’t get the bail…
@@Asymmetrical-Saggin no ur right absolutely all i was saying is that this wasn’t anything that we haven’t seen, this is pretty much our style now which sucks, we have just had elite goalies win us games like this.
We have 4 players on pace for 82 goals this year? I thought I bled Black and Gold. We will get better. Swayman better earn his $8.25 million this year; we are going to need him.
Just a mess. Korpo wasn't the real problem, defence was nonexistent, they didn't clear anyone It's the first game, we have some problems with plenty of time to fix it.
We have size that not everyone uses. And 1 high tier scorer. And thankfully 1 grade A goalie. What in the hell is the identity of the team? It's not a hard forecheck team it's not a tough win board battle team. And not a defensive sound team.
I mean this game they were defensively awful, but our identity is supposed to be an amazing goalie with one of the best defense cores in the league in front of him... not sure what the hell we saw last night, but that's what we built for.
What upsets me with the power play is that they move Pastrnak down to the back post to try to open up everyone else but Pastrnak is the QB and when he is moving around the power play, and not being stationary, it is dangerous. I think it’s time to have a conversation to take Marchand off of it.
Unironically though this is one of the most undisciplined openers to start a season. The offseason really messed with the organization so I can see how they wouldn't be too upset with a slow start but your completely right, the effort wasn't there, they're still in a preseason kind of mind. Hopefully we don't see this at other points of the year, glad it's only game 1. Go Bs.
Poitras' games lost to injury are starting to add up. Is this a "new" injury he is dealing with, or is it related to his shoulder injury from last season? He couldn't survive camp and preseason?
They built this team to beat the panthers lol. The panthers don’t fight. They beat you with skill, structure and speed. They happen to also be dirty but they aren’t going to let anyone fight them fairly.
We really hate each other now lol. Sort of like how im starting to hate Geekie... and its only game 1 Jones needs to go. Now. 9:51 Missed that brother!!
I am going to question Monty out of the gate. You nailed the review. I had no idea what i was watching. Worst first game of the season i have seen in years. I'm so disappointed in Koepke. He had a great camp. Beecher, Lindholm (d), Fredric only Bruin on the ice. I'm not sure 😕 if anyone else lives up to the B. But no cap space from Sway deal leaves us with no scoring depth. I digress your review was spot on. Go B's.
I do think Andrew Peake deserves stick tap. He managed his game well with a brick on his d pairing. Everyone else couldn't even get the puck out of our zone. What did we just watch 😮😮😮😮😮
Its funny I was a casual fan till Tampa got a team fairly hard core fan since, hated the bruins every year since forever... till last year, its nice to know this panthers team (and the NHL desperation to build a consistent fan base for them) can bring other teams fans together in their intense dislike for that team. Also good video breakdown as always!
If were being honest this game was on the defense with all them turnovers, not boxing guys out of the crease. On bennets first goal macovy glided on his skates instead of actually skating the hole time. That goal dosent happen if he skates hard. That turnover by carlo that lead to a goal was atrocious. They still went long strwtches with no shots. Yes it is game 1 but this team kinda sucks.
This may be a "no crap Sherlock" statement but it seems this bruins roster does better when they're under extreme pressure ( last 10 or so odd min of the game/ poweplays/ 5-4 Disadvantages etc.)
The bullshit of the slashing the ref call is the high stick in the neck. Sure it’s just being annoying no real force behind what he’s doing but how many time do you let Florida punk you or the refs let them punk you and you can’t do anything about it. Refs need to either call that bullshit or let men handle it. I certainly miss chara in games like this. Bennet prob wouldn’t run korpi. Someone shoulda fed him his lunch.
That's how I talked about Rask all the time. Sub par goaltender playing on a great team. But at least Rask could track the puck, his problem was he lost track of where his net was.
They're not gonna be ok if this is the forward group they keep going with. They'll be pretty good defensively and in goal. Grind out enough wins to make the playoffs. Then they'll lose in the 1st or 2nd round because they can't score. It's what they've mostly done for the last 50 years. If Morgan Geekie is one of your 6 best forwards your forwards aren't very good.
The Bruins are really frustrating team to be a fan of…mostly because of how lazy they are and how you know they could perform 100 times better than they are. The last five minutes of this game proved this even more lol
Well, do they need anymore hype or get up for game 1 / openning game of season! They're still in preseason. They're disorganized, slow on D, useless/ no playmaking, 1st line sucked most of game, line 2 as well. This was brutal to see we did no work put nothing into the offseason to fix our PP only buy a good Defender and a scorer on offense. Didn't notice any of them
I'm pretty sure the goal of the offseason was to build a team to beat Florida and that couldn't have looked any more identical to last season or the season before.
1) our defense are big but looked soft. Out of position and no intensity. 2) we know what our core is but what upside do the other forwards have? Zero. 3) if you are gonna try to get revenge on Tkachuk or Bennet you don’t ask politely if they wanna go and they goat you in a penalty. Do what Zack Kasian did to Tkachuk… 4) Most concerning is since late last year pasta is starting to look like a one trick pony.
They need a solid Left winger other than Marchand. Jones, Koepke, Tufte suck. Lohrei got beat all game. He’s not ready for the NHL. I know that was only game 1, but since 2018 they’ve won every first game. Would they have won if Sway had started?
Bad game for Lohrei, but you do remember he was our best defenseman in the playoffs last year don't you? If he's not NHL ready based on that than I'd guess some of our vets aren't NHL ready either.
Geekie didn't just go post and out. He also forced Bob to make a pretty big glove save I want to say in the first. Max Jones is terrible. I guess he was hurt. But I have no idea why you didn't let Duran or Kuntar play. I'm out on Max Jones 100%. I think Peeke had a pretty good game for himself. I hate the pairings they put together.
We think the exact same way when it comes to hockey a ton of changes already need to happen max jones bye korpisalo bye geekie is a third line player i tell everyone this he isn’t a top 6 player
All I have been hearing Bs best Defense in league. Forsling outplayed McAvoy big time!!! Carlo was a cone. Zadorhov is a good 3rd liner. Lorhie took a step back playing Defense. Ugh....
Carlo and zadarov are supposed to be good and even lohrei was terrible. Like that whole defense was just trash. Brandon Carlo isn’t physical enough and he’s not taking his man out. And yeah bottom nine looked bad
Bruins looked more over-matched than out of shape. Big bodies won’t do well against quick teams. Why isn’t Tyler Johnson on this team… Swayman casualty?
High Quality Monologue/Rant in the opening skit. Good luck Bruins people. Here's to another year of dreaming about a Bruins-Dallas SCF!
Oh you mean the one where he was talking about the bruins but acting like he was talking about the panthers? Yeah that was great, Boston has been so shit this season it’s hysterical

McAvoy's no-trade kicked in this off-season. That was the play for a genuine revamp and they missed it.
@@southpawjimmy9735in no way would anyone sane trade mcavoy
On the positive side the Bruins can't possibly play any worse.
yeah they can I mean they almost came back when they had swayman on the bench that's not that bad
Don't challenge them to that please.
Right
wanna bet...
They could lose the deciding game in the Final…at home….again
It felt like Florida got no penalties that whole game. I was rejoicing a Florida penalty like it was a Bruins goal
Coaching issue, how have they not figured out the panthers at all. Been way too long at this point. Not gonna judge after game 1, but this was not good

This is the optimistic that I need. Also it is game one of a “new” team. I am going to keep the flame burning.
It was 6-2, unless you really thnk the Cats were trying in the last four minutes of the game. That was a surefire drubbing.
"It's like we never left"
Also is it just me or did Hampus genuinely look a lot more like what he did 2 years ago? Some significant improvement there. Really liked the decision to put both Lohrei and Hampus on the 2nd PP, you'd be kinda wasting them if one of them didn't get PP time.
Zacha also had a pretty good game. A lot of small good plays. And a sniperoony n' cheese.
I thought lindholm played pretty well too
Yeah, it's hard to notice someone playing well when everyone else on D were atrocious. And ESPN doesn't analyze the replays at all.
Good to have you back this season!
That skit was spot on. The panthers have only seen success by taking cheap shots and hiding behind the referees whenever someone tries to fight back
It won a cup, so cry harder. We'll be more than happy to use that same strat to reach a third straight cup final if that's what works.
You mean like the bruins have done for like a decade?
“Minimum” Jones! Hahaha. Love it. That’s the only bright spot- the new nickname you’ve coined.
I'm a Panthers fan, but love your show. Brilliant and insightful-but most of all, really, really, entertaining.

On the second bennet shot. The puck bounced up and hit peeke in the face I think.

Loved the rant on Matt Tkachuk. He reminds me of Claude Lemieux and Ulf Samuelson.
What upsets me with the power play is that they move Pastrnak down to the back post to try to open up everyone else but Pastrnak is the QB and when he is moving around the power play, and not being stationary, it is dangerous. I think it’s time to have a conversation to take Marchand off of it.
Unironically though this is one of the most undisciplined openers to start a season. The offseason really messed with the organization so I can see how they wouldn't be too upset with a slow start but your completely right, the effort wasn't there, they're still in a preseason kind of mind. Hopefully we don't see this at other points of the year, glad it's only game 1. Go Bs.
Game 1, Panthers at home after winning the Cup, refs doing what they do, I wasn't too surprised. But holy fuck defense sucked 1st period.
interesting how we have all these big guys but still lose puck battles in the crease. lol
Doesn't matter how big you are if you allow the opponent to get inside position.
Minimum Jones is the perfect name for him. 😂😂😂 Why do they love these Ducks forwards so much?
Poitras' games lost to injury are starting to add up. Is this a "new" injury he is dealing with, or is it related to his shoulder injury from last season? He couldn't survive camp and preseason?
We have a lot of bottom six guys in our top nine.
You called out the puck tracking but I didn't hear any comment on his rebound control. Was it just me or was that awful too?
I more scare wheels are falling if marchand than I am about lindholm… 😔
I hated McAvoy effort on Sam Reinhart goal. Nasty goal but McAvoy was so slow getting back, lazy stick check. Pretty unacceptable
Unrelenting optimism until I die. Head back home, reset, and get back to work against Montreal.
Go B’s!
Boston’s Steve Dangle.
I watched the Utah opener… that looks like a next gen hockey team. Fast. Crisp. Skilled. The bruins look like they have reverted back to the 1980s
B's went for size instead of speed
They built this team to beat the panthers lol. The panthers don’t fight. They beat you with skill, structure and speed. They happen to also be dirty but they aren’t going to let anyone fight them fairly.
title of the video could've been "Powerplay for Boston, we don't do anything with it"
Korpo gets a stick tap for last night. He did above average for a tendy with an AHL team in front of him against the defending champs.
Minimum Jones is devious
We really hate each other now lol.
Sort of like how im starting to hate Geekie... and its only game 1
Jones needs to go. Now.
9:51 Missed that brother!!
I am going to question Monty out of the gate. You nailed the review. I had no idea what i was watching. Worst first game of the season i have seen in years. I'm so disappointed in Koepke. He had a great camp. Beecher, Lindholm (d), Fredric only Bruin on the ice. I'm not sure 😕 if anyone else lives up to the B. But no cap space from Sway deal leaves us with no scoring depth. I digress your review was spot on. Go B's.
I do think Andrew Peake deserves stick tap. He managed his game well with a brick on his d pairing. Everyone else couldn't even get the puck out of our zone. What did we just watch 😮😮😮😮😮
Kastelic brought the energy
Its funny I was a casual fan till Tampa got a team fairly hard core fan since, hated the bruins every year since forever... till last year, its nice to know this panthers team (and the NHL desperation to build a consistent fan base for them) can bring other teams fans together in their intense dislike for that team. Also good video breakdown as always!
If were being honest this game was on the defense with all them turnovers, not boxing guys out of the crease. On bennets first goal macovy glided on his skates instead of actually skating the hole time. That goal dosent happen if he skates hard. That turnover by carlo that lead to a goal was atrocious. They still went long strwtches with no shots. Yes it is game 1 but this team kinda sucks.
This may be a "no crap Sherlock" statement but it seems this bruins roster does better when they're under extreme pressure ( last 10 or so odd min of the game/ poweplays/ 5-4 Disadvantages etc.)
Or I should say abnormal pressure if I can use that word
Florida gets in our heads too easily and the B's don't know how to handle it
The bullshit of the slashing the ref call is the high stick in the neck. Sure it’s just being annoying no real force behind what he’s doing but how many time do you let Florida punk you or the refs let them punk you and you can’t do anything about it. Refs need to either call that bullshit or let men handle it. I certainly miss chara in games like this. Bennet prob wouldn’t run korpi. Someone shoulda fed him his lunch.
Calm down, it was one game
That's how I talked about Rask all the time. Sub par goaltender playing on a great team. But at least Rask could track the puck, his problem was he lost track of where his net was.
They're not gonna be ok if this is the forward group they keep going with.
They'll be pretty good defensively and in goal. Grind out enough wins to make the playoffs. Then they'll lose in the 1st or 2nd round because they can't score. It's what they've mostly done for the last 50 years.
If Morgan Geekie is one of your 6 best forwards your forwards aren't very good.
Move potsy on line 2… Geekie to line 3… the rest …. Fuck it … bring up Lysell and merkulov and Beecher on 4th line.
The Bruins are really frustrating team to be a fan of…mostly because of how lazy they are and how you know they could perform 100 times better than they are. The last five minutes of this game proved this even more lol
MINIMUM JONES!!!
After all the nonsense you guys started in the playoffs last year watching Sam Bennett own you was an absolute joy to behold
Korpi didn’t look bad at all. His d gave him no help. Lots of high danger. No help clearing pucks.
Pucks or bodies. Defense was still in preseason form.
It’s hilarious how much people are overreacting 😂
Well, do they need anymore hype or get up for game 1 / openning game of season! They're still in preseason. They're disorganized, slow on D, useless/ no playmaking, 1st line sucked most of game, line 2 as well. This was brutal to see we did no work put nothing into the offseason to fix our PP only buy a good Defender and a scorer on offense. Didn't notice any of them
@@davidselawsky6620Give it time little boy
Chemistry takes time to develop
@@davidselawsky6620embarrassing bruin effort.omg.snail team
Overreacting? That was the worst result imaginable lol
I'm pretty sure the goal of the offseason was to build a team to beat Florida and that couldn't have looked any more identical to last season or the season before.
Sens fans feel vindicated ☕️😌
23:54 lmao
1) our defense are big but looked soft. Out of position and no intensity. 2) we know what our core is but what upside do the other forwards have? Zero. 3) if you are gonna try to get revenge on Tkachuk or Bennet you don’t ask politely if they wanna go and they goat you in a penalty. Do what Zack Kasian did to Tkachuk… 4) Most concerning is since late last year pasta is starting to look like a one trick pony.
They need a solid Left winger other than Marchand. Jones, Koepke, Tufte suck. Lohrei got beat all game. He’s not ready for the NHL. I know that was only game 1, but since 2018 they’ve won every first game. Would they have won if Sway had started?
Lohrei -3.geekie sucks cmon man.omg
I mean swayman has also loss four of the last six vs this team….
But he will get his chance on Monday. In hopefully more favorable conditions
Bad game for Lohrei, but you do remember he was our best defenseman in the playoffs last year don't you? If he's not NHL ready based on that than I'd guess some of our vets aren't NHL ready either.
Geekie didn't just go post and out. He also forced Bob to make a pretty big glove save I want to say in the first.
Max Jones is terrible. I guess he was hurt. But I have no idea why you didn't let Duran or Kuntar play. I'm out on Max Jones 100%.
I think Peeke had a pretty good game for himself. I hate the pairings they put together.
YIKES PAL ID BE TIRED TOO IF I WAS CONSTANTLY RAWDOGGED BY A HOCKEY TEAM FROM A PLACE WITH NO ICE
We think the exact same way when it comes to hockey a ton of changes already need to happen max jones bye korpisalo bye geekie is a third line player i tell everyone this he isn’t a top 6 player
Defense sucked ass, but Korpisalo was king of the rebounds
All I have been hearing Bs best Defense in league. Forsling outplayed McAvoy big time!!! Carlo was a cone. Zadorhov is a good 3rd liner. Lorhie took a step back playing Defense. Ugh....
low quality comment, for a loooowwww quality bruins fan.
Bruins 2 speeds slow & slower
Carlo and zadarov are supposed to be good and even lohrei was terrible. Like that whole defense was just trash. Brandon Carlo isn’t physical enough and he’s not taking his man out. And yeah bottom nine looked bad
Who TF is Max Jones?
Bruins looked more over-matched than out of shape. Big bodies won’t do well against quick teams. Why isn’t Tyler Johnson on this team… Swayman casualty?
