Holy mother of God that was bad. Bad bad bad. 0-3 on the powerplay. About 7 broken sticks, including one from MoJo on the doorstep. The Bergeron line quiet as a mouse behind enemy lines once again. I’m ready to put an Amber Alert out for Jake DeBrusk. Kid had 3 shots and one hit tonight and I couldn’t tell you when they were. Since the Kadri game he’s been about as noticeable as Rob McElhenney in Game of Thrones. And of course, we couldn’t go a single stressful Bruins playoff game without a too many men on the ice call. God forbid we remember when one guy comes off the ice, only one guy steps on.
What’s really frustrating is you wasted a great game by Tuukka Rask. I’m sure he’ll get all the praise he deserves on the radio tomorrow. He kept this team in the game and it wasn’t until a borderline goalie interference call that he gave up a goal. I’m not even going to get started on goalie interference. Even Bran Stark can’t figure out what is and isn’t goalie interference.
I’m going to lose my marbles if this team gets bounced in the first round. I said a few nights ago they have a BEAUTIFUL opportunity in front of them with Pittsburgh and Tampa already being sent home. They were poised to be in a position to lay the Leafs to rest in my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ’s vacant tomb this Easter Sunday in Toronto. But, I guess I’ll have to sit in my hot, overcrowded church in a suit I bought when I was in hockey shape over a year ago, worrying about whether or not our top guys are going to show up to play.
