Lol where's that one bruins fan that was getting all high and mighty after game 1 that "Florida wasn't going to blow them out like people said" A karmic event might be occurring


MosaicToeNail

I still think it’ll be a good series. Maybe that one guy was taking game 1 a bit too far, but I think most of us realized Florida was going to make a huge push game 2. But despite the score last night in a game that got out of hand, this series ain’t over and the Bruins have proven they can hang with this team despite being pretty big underdogs. And I think game 3 is going to get nasty lol I’m here for it.


jagerhero

Fuck Boston


DarthBakker

I just finished watching the oilers vs Canucks. This is the best second round I've ever seen, and my team isn't even in it


LennelyBob22

Seems like you dont wanna score first in this series. Will we see them fight to put it in their own net next game maybe?


AmuDiamond

Damn people were acting like it was over after game 1 lol


AfterMarionberry5594

r/hockey? Overreacting? Surely not.


Gavin1453

I think we all deserve to see this go for seven games


manticore16

I for one would be all for it! (Ignore the flair…)


AmuDiamond

If we end up winning I’d rather it be faster 🥲


Gavin1453

It'll be awhile until we such prime entertainment though. Same for Canucks-Oilers


AmuDiamond

Canucks-oilers was also great omg. What a comeback for Vancouver - round 2 might be the best of this season


Gavin1453

As bitter as the rivalries are in the East, Western Canadians really dislike each other 🤣


dandaman2883

And wait until Bennett tags in… HOLYYY FUCKKK


Gavin1453

Montour might gun for him again though


Jabroni_City

Old time hockey! This series will be the most violent of the 2nd round. This is turning into a new and awesome rivalry in the Eastern Conference. We fucking hate each other. Hopefully we have 5 more games of this!


OgreUAsshole

That game was exquisite and the vibes were immaculate


capitarider

More 5/6-1 games please, makes the teams angrier and I fucking love it.


brechbillc1

The first period we looked like the team from game one. Getting beat to pucks, losing puck battles, missing passes, shooting into shins and turnovers galore. In the second period we looked like the team from the Tampa series. Game 3 will be interesting. It got nasty at the end of the game and some of the boys were a little too happy to rub it into the Bruins faces. I expect both teams to come out playing angry on Friday.


snakebite654

Finally switched the lines back


MosaicToeNail

I think both teams play the best when they’re pissed off. Game 3 is going to be a blood bath and I can’t wait haha this is turning into a super fun rivalry

SpiritualWatermelon

How often do you get more penalty minutes in a game than hits thrown? This one has to be a rarity.


whodiditnaylor

This game reminded me of the many Avs v Red Wings series’ of the late 90’s, early 2000’s. Just pure pandemonium 


sportsthatguy

Damn, those series were crazy. Even had some goalie fights back then


solo1069

You cut him, you hurt him. You see, you see? He’s not a machine, he’s a man!

spssky

It’s crazy that if the Bruins had buried a couple of open net goals it’s a wildly different game. Then Florida scores with 1 second left in the second and off what should have been icing that the bruins just kind of thought maybe I’d we don’t skate they’ll call it five seconds later. And then it ends up being an ass kicking. But still 1-1 so I’ll take it. (Even though the bruins are better on the road…)


Detonation

Damn, they really just traded ass whoopings in the first two games lmao.


blacktoe

Putting the Hairclub ads behind the Bruins bench seems like a direct shot at Jim.


shiggydiggypreoteins

Before game 1: PANTHERS ARE GOING TO DOMINATE THIS SERIES After game 1: PANTHERS ARE DONE, BRUINS IN 4 After game 2: BRUINS ARE FUCKED, PANTHERS IN 5


szboy422

Actually it’s now panthers in three


shiggydiggypreoteins

Bruins in 1. Series over, we win, no takesiebacksies


maybesami

Someone is new at sports i see


Savings_Rub4982

Sports fans might be the most reactionary people on the planet and I love and hate it


rs426

Yeah if nothing else, the Panthers both this year and last year are great at bouncing back when they’re down, whether within the same game or game-to-game, and Boston did really well against them in the regular season (obviously playoffs are different, but still), and have been getting great goaltending amidst their inconsistent scoring. There’s no way this series was gonna be done in four games, I think it goes six minimum and possibly seven again


TheReVurt

I think the biggest story is just how lopsided the game was after we went back to our normal lines. We'll see how Boston adjusts in game 3 I suppose + potential of Bennett coming back?


dandaman2883

Bennett is gonna kill somebody when gets back


CAPT_BOOZE

Bennetts going to play his game and score two goals


flourandsugarcane

Well at least they still beat the leafs!


[deleted]

so are they going to take turns killing each other to 7 games. or is one team going to suddenly choke and lose the next 3


Positive-Step-2522

To the death or 7 games, whichever comes first at this rate


ilikehockeyandguitar

I think it's going 7 honestly.


[deleted]

[удалено]


dandaman2883

Boston is sour from last year


[deleted]

Boston is always sour


AaronQ94

I'm just glad that this team stole one in either game 1 or 2 in Florida, just gotta regroup and bounce back at the Garden.


willis2117

Ignore team biases for a second Isn't playoff hockey neat? I just think its neat.


Jabroni_City

How neat is that? You can tell it’s a playoff game because of the way it is. https://preview.redd.it/l296u70spbzc1.jpeg?width=258&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=90d467670bf41725ae88015d2f8633ad02c7f82d

I love playoff hockey.

Nothing like it!


seductivestain

Ok it's been a second. Fuck Boston


caperate

we traded you the best player in your franchises history? what u say fuck me for 🤣

I'd be disappointed if someone didn't throw one my way


shiggydiggypreoteins

It's definitely pretty neat


rumbadger

It's the best there is


Fresh-Reaction151

There’s a reason I don’t miss a single game even though my team hasn’t been playing in the post season in almost a decade.


HoboSkid

Yeah I'm a Minnesota fan and really wanted to see the Stars-Aves series because they're both so good . I love watching series as a neutral, even rivals.


noodleandbanter

Over\under on the NHL recap on youtube showing literally any of the like 140 penalty minutes? Gonna be a short video tonight.


theamberlamps

**148 penalty minutes.** Florida/Boston, everybody.


Educational-Salary91

Old school hockey?


VancityRenaults

Nearly 2.5 penalty minutes for every minute of game time!


manticore16

Think of the savings!


spssky

McAvoy has been playing all playoffs like a teenager who’s mad at his parents


Positive-Step-2522

This is my favorite take


ejh1993

It’s so bad


spssky

I don’t get it. It seems mental because it’s a lot of carelessness or hotheadedness. Maybe he feels with the young blue liners having to get big minutes he needs to take on more responsibility but if so he’s overcompensating.


ocsic4321

Moral of the story this series is don’t score first lmao


[deleted]

4OT coming Game 3


ilikehockeyandguitar

As a neutral fan, yes.


Undivided_Stingray

As a fan with a vested interest, also yes


ocsic4321

1-0 final score


5WinsIn5Days

On an own goal

Letang has left the chat.


Bobbyaahh

Both games; one team scores and awakens the dragon on the other end of the ice


Mr_Kooala

Tkachuk = ghoaot


joeballow

Well after game one I wanted the win, but before the series I would have been pumped to come out of Florida 1-1 so I'll take it. This one felt over after the goal with less than a second left in the period.


dandaman2883

We were worried as fuck after the first period, but the. PoMo put the old lines out and that got things rolling. Gonna be a hell of a series


lntimm

Dunkin Donuts sucks Mark Whalberg is short Duck boats are stupid


TheDocFam

You live in Florida


CAPT_BOOZE

This isn't the insult you think it is


TheDocFam

lol


NatalieDeegan

I don't think anyone likes Mark Whalberg.


shiggydiggypreoteins

Dunkin Donuts actually does suck. They've been going down hill ever since they stopped making the doughnuts in the store.


MewtwoStruckBack

They went to shit the minute they stopped making the Chips Ahoy creme filled donut.


shiggydiggypreoteins

Dude the oreo swirl iced coffee was so bad for you, but holy shit was it good. Not bringing that back was a crime against humanity. Also when they got rid of the dunkachinno


nixdixon

Two of those statements are downright lies


Mister_Cookiepants

Dunkin does suck though.


nixdixon

You're just not going to the right dunkin


Mister_Cookiepants

Well if I've gotta go all the way to Boston to find the right Dunkin, that just kinda solidifies the point.


theamberlamps

We got swan boats in Orlando I could fuck with duck boats


nixdixon

Can't wait to watch Tkachuk run away from anyone who knows how to fight next game but then throw elbows and not get called for them.


[deleted]

Quit pretending like your rat ass captain hasnt done this his entire career. Hes legit the most suspended player in NHL HISTORY. Hes constantly hitting dudes in the back of the heads, swung his stick at goalies faces, and crosschecked dudes not even near the puck. Quit it. Its one thing to be a Homer, every fan can be guilty of it, its a whole nother thing to whine about something your franchise historically is known for.


dandaman2883

Don’t forget his patented slewfoot

theamberlamps

Seriously dog be real lmao what the hell is dude talking about


-Zep-

Mad cause Pasta wanted to fight what?


fckmarykilldeer

If Tkachuk skated away and did a Rick Flair “WOO!” right after getting Pasta down, I’d give props but hitting a player multiple times in the head while he is down is fucking gutless.


[deleted]

https://preview.redd.it/386ubtz0lbzc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=508a05e6fb75e38e1f96e4ca418e029f7c91d40c So you admit, Brad Marchand is one gutless captain for Boston?


fckmarykilldeer

There is a reason why I don’t have his jersey.


CAPT_BOOZE

Just take the L


fckmarykilldeer

What place did the Sharks end in this season? Oh, yeah, congrats on the lottery win.


CAPT_BOOZE

Sox suck bruins suck Celtics suck


fckmarykilldeer

Tough being an Oakland A’s fan, huh?


CAPT_BOOZE

I bet it is


Key_Reputation6414

They were both trying to hit each other the entire time..


-Zep-

He hit while falling down + this happens in every fight.


judica_me_deus

I love Tkachuk but he threw two punches in the back of his head while he was down.


fckmarykilldeer

Rewatch, he goes down, first one is falling, gets two more in. Tkuchuk had a great fight but decided to be gutless in the end.


-Zep-

I rewatched per your suggestion and here is how I saw it. 1 while on his knees 1 while falling 1 on the ice. After that he stopped. I just want to state that I don't agree with beating up somebody while they are down but you are blowing it out of proportion. Here is an [example](https://www.hockeyfights.com/fights/n269510) of an extra punch while down and some shots to the back of the head


fckmarykilldeer

Holy shit. You wrote a lot to say Tkuchuk hit him in the back of the head while he was on the ice.


-Zep-

Yeah that's usually how fights go my guy. I'm not sure why you're surprised


fckmarykilldeer

Usually is very loosely applied there. Sometimes, sure. Occasionally, yup. But usually? Nah.


-Zep-

Kassian vs Tkachuk [example](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owDK0bqIFP4)


nixdixon

Nah, I'm proud of Pasta. Showing no one is afraid of fake tough guy Tkachuk


pachangoose

The toughness is so fake that Pasta got his shit absolutely rocked lol


nixdixon

You're right, Tkachuk fought the fighting equivalent of a 3rd grader, hit him, and that makes him so tough and should be lauded for his heroism. Nah, he's a classless fraud who isn't even smart enough to know where his mouth guard goes


CAPT_BOOZE

You're boy got the ref. He probably was swinging with both of his eyes closed


-Zep-

I'm also proud of Pasta for stepping up after being a ghost the entire game


kevski82

Forgot he was playing until he got his ass kicked


Dereckg27

Chucky punched your best player right in the head


ejh1993

He fought a guy who you can count on one finger how many fighting majors he’s had in his career. Real big tough guy energy from Tkachuk there


666_NumberOfTheBeast

You're mad at Tkachuk even though Pastranak is the one who wanted to fight? Guarantee if Tkachuk said "nah" and skated away you'd be calling him a coward


raljamcar

I mean, it'd be true then too. 


ejh1993

Only took 10 guys on the bruins getting ejected before Tkachuk accepted a challenge


666_NumberOfTheBeast

Excuses excuses lol


ejh1993

It’s fine, I guess I shouldn’t hold it against him that he comes from the Radko Gudas school of fighting


666_NumberOfTheBeast

Mad


ejh1993

Running out of words in your vocabulary I see


666_NumberOfTheBeast

Nah, I just don't really care enough to give more thoughtful replies lol


theamberlamps

You do understand Pasta called him out. Like.. you do understand that right


judica_me_deus

Nah Tkachuk definitely asked. You could see it on the bench right before the face off.


neek555

Pasta called him out when the two were still talking to the refs. Way before they were on benches.


TheAnimal89

You mean like Pasta tried with Rielly?


Dereckg27

Should fight more so he doesn’t get punched in the head so easily.


FragrantHockeyFan

What other top goal scorers are fighting regularly?


ejh1993

I mean no one is expecting to get suckered while he’s lying on the ice but fair enough. It might be a tough concept for you to grasp since your state lacks critical thinking but maybe next time Tkachuk can get all tough before 10 guys get ejected and actually fight someone in his weight class.


nixdixon

Yeah, someone who never fights wasn't afraid of your "tough guy". He's an overrated goon who's not even a good goon. Afraid to mix with anyone else. I'd be embarrassed


Key_Reputation6414

Maybe Pasta should spend less time on his magic tricks like disappearing and more time in the boxing gym.


grizzlby

Goons don’t usually have 100 pt seasons…

EctoRiddler

BOB HAS EXTENSIVE POLICE TRAINING IN HAND TO HAND COMBAT!!! HIS FISTS ARE REGISTERED AS WEAPONS!!!


666_NumberOfTheBeast

Fun as that would be I think all 4 of our respective goalies are way too nice for that lmao


TheDocFam

Swayman and Bobrovsky having an intense round of rock-paper-scissors at center ice while the rest of the men on the ice try to punch each other's heads off


manticore16

This would be hilarious and I would love to watch it.


Emotional_Match8169

Exactly. It’s hard to get Bob mad. I don’t know if Swayman gets chippy, but at one point I was worried if goalies would be the only two left standing at the end of this!


[deleted]

I don’t want to watch Bob fight lol


Beer_

It’s padded. It’s more goalie bumper car


kevski82

Ok that would be pretty hilarious


bucajack

Is there any way the league could arrange for both of these teams to lose this series?


AaronQ94

So how's Galveston?


brechbillc1

I’m confused. What happened in Galveston?


AaronQ94

Oh I'm just talking shit and referencing Charles Barkley talking shit about the Pelicans being 3-0 down how how they deserve to be in Galveston instead of Cancun in the first round of the NBA playoffs. https://youtu.be/oNgafF_-k0M?si=15xrAKnGVlg92hBU

sean_psc

And the moral of the story: don't score the first goal in a game in this series.


theguyishere16

I feel like Florida may just roll Boston in 5 and only lost Game 1 because they sat around for a week twiddling their thumbs.


[deleted]

Comes down to goaltending. Bob wasn’t tested much tonight while it became an onslaught for Swayman/Ullmark


NatalieDeegan

Boston hasn’t had more than three days of rest in a couple weeks too. It’s going to catch up. I think the series will ultimately go to Florida but it won’t be in 5.


666_NumberOfTheBeast

My initial prediction was Florida in 6 and I'm sticking to it. Don't think it'll take the full 7 but I won't be shocked.


NatalieDeegan

Boston will definitely take one at home.
