Timmeh wants his Vezina back

He at least wants his starting goalie position back. WOW! He's off to such a strong start. I know you've got to ride the hot hand but I also don't want to leave Tukka sitting too long either. I guess too much quality goal-tending is a nice problem to have.

How about Caron? He's looking good in his first pro season. He's keeping his game simple and playing good 2-way hockey. I think Bergeron is a good influence on him too.

And once again I am going to declare my joy with Horton. What a trade, huh?

Yes I was about to mention Jordan but the phone rang

That hair was ridiculous!

It's his wife who tell him to cut his hair or she's going back to Carter.

Andrei K really wants a new contract this summers it's seems. The guy is on fire since the start of the season. Be careful Gauthier with that guy. Maybe Sergei trade was a good thing for him too who knows.

"Tyler Seguin said it was hard to stifle the laughter on the bench when the crowd erupted into a "Thank you, Kessel" chant in 2nd period"

That was very satisfying. Never heard a chant that loud at the Garden, at least not in the regular season

bruins72 · Post by **bruins72** » Fri Oct 29, 2010 4:34 pm

They weren't saying "Thank You, Kessel". It sounded a bit like it. I heard one of the guys that does the radio broadcast of the game say this morning that it was "F#$* You, Kessel". Just as funny but a little more mean-spirited. Whatever was said, I think it had Kessel off his game. In a post-game interview he said it meant nothing to him but he was clearly not the guy who had been scoring almost a goal a game so far this season.

And how about Timmy? I was in the "Trade Timmy" camp this summer. I'm glad he's proving me wrong. From what I've been hearing, his hip was really a factor last season. Now that it's better, he's in his Vezina form.

Briere got suspended 3 games for is dirty trick against Nielsen last Saturday. I was hoping for a good suspension after what his done. This guy is so dirty when he wanted too.

And the Bruins train keeps on rolling. And how about Tim Thomas? WOW!

Post by **batdad** » Mon Nov 01, 2010 11:44 pm

Thomas will come back to earth. he will... I know it. Whoops I said that two years ago,,and it took til last season for that to happen. I hope he comes down this week....I have to deal with his owner in fantasy hockey.

Hartnell hair cut looks bad. He needs to grow it again. that was awesome. But yeah, the charity was his own. If he did not cut his hair no wifey. Heh. And look who is playing on a line with Scotty tonight? hmm....

Yeah, that was too dirty from him. Watch this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADCqSloHCo8 and see how Carcillo slashed DiPietro to his leg from behind, at 1:16

bruins72 · Post by **bruins72** » Thu Nov 04, 2010 1:31 pm

For the first time all season, Tim Thomas allowed more than 1 goal in a game (in this game it was 2). He also became the first goalie in Bruins history to start 7-0.

Post by **philou21** » Thu Nov 04, 2010 3:51 pm

Carcillo is just a dumbass that's all. I'm not surprised.

Glad to see Thomas is doing so well. The history of this guy is amazing.

Post by **Danny** » Thu Nov 04, 2010 4:18 pm

I'd love Carcillo on my team.

Me too!

When he is not taking stupid penalties or been dirty the guy is kinda good for a goon. He can score goals and know how to distract other players. He's the kind of guy you hate on the other team and like him in your team.

WOW! What a comeback by the Bruins last night! I was busy and didn't get to turn on the game until the second intermission. I had checked the score on my Blackberry and saw that it was 4-2. Honestly, I didn't expect them to be able to score and get back into the game because they were missing Krejci. I am so glad I turned the game on anyways! 5 unanswered goals! Sure, one was an empty-netter. Even better was that 15 different Bruins logged points in that game. If they can keep this up while Krejci recovers, we'll be doing quite well.

And to make life even better, the Leafs keep losing. The Bruins own the Leafs' first round pick again for the upcoming draft. Wouldn't it be crazy if they got another top pick? They don't have to even make the top 2 this year. I'd be delighted with a top 5 pick. Larsson would be a dream (and probably require a top 2 pick) but if the Bruins could get in the top 5 they could possibly get a guy like Murphy.

Laffs just come back to their good old strategy.

Post by **philou21** » Thu Nov 11, 2010 4:55 pm

Habs trade O'Byrne to the Avs for Bournival the third round pick in 2010. I like that! O'Byrne didn't got any chance to play with Subban now and maybe he will get more time at Denver. Bournival is a good looking prospect.

Coward Avery http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjZF1Cdx7Eo Check 4:14 of this video. Avery went after Smid when he wasn't expecting the fight. According to Smid, Avery told "maybe next shift" to him when he tried to instigate the fight with Avery.

This guy's got mud instead of brain.

Post by **philou21** » Mon Nov 15, 2010 4:19 pm

Yeah that was one hell of a coward move. Anyway does somebody expected something loyal from Avery?? What a prick.

Post by **philou21** » Tue Dec 14, 2010 9:45 pm

So some Bruins fan here are happy to see Strum go?

Hello....? Oh wait. Bruins72 didn't came since 5 days wha happened.

And Danny seems to be dead too. Oh well.

bruins72 · Post by **bruins72** » Wed Dec 15, 2010 9:24 pm

Yeah, I've been incredibly busy at both home and work lately, so I haven't had time for TBL.

Honestly, at this point I was happy to see Sturm go. He's just way too fragile and his cap number was too big for what he brings to the team. He seemed like a genuinely good guy, so I'm also happy that he gets a chance for a fresh start out in LA.

Krejci and Cammalleri fought! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NvYRaWS-iI
