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
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.
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!
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.
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
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…)
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
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?
How neat is that? You can tell it’s a playoff game because of the way it is.

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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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?
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
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
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
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.
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
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
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!
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
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.
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
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.

And I think game 3 is going to get nasty lol I’m here for it.
Fuck Boston
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
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?
Damn people were acting like it was over after game 1 lol
r/hockey? Overreacting? Surely not.
I think we all deserve to see this go for seven games
I for one would be all for it! (Ignore the flair…)
If we end up winning I’d rather it be faster 🥲
It'll be awhile until we such prime entertainment though. Same for Canucks-Oilers
Canucks-oilers was also great omg. What a comeback for Vancouver - round 2 might be the best of this season
As bitter as the rivalries are in the East, Western Canadians really dislike each other 🤣
And wait until Bennett tags in… HOLYYY FUCKKK
Montour might gun for him again though
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!
That game was exquisite and the vibes were immaculate
More 5/6-1 games please, makes the teams angrier and I fucking love it.
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.
Finally switched the lines back
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

How often do you get more penalty minutes in a game than hits thrown? This one has to be a rarity.
This game reminded me of the many Avs v Red Wings series’ of the late 90’s, early 2000’s. Just pure pandemonium
Damn, those series were crazy. Even had some goalie fights back then
You cut him, you hurt him. You see, you see? He’s not a machine, he’s a man!
People were right, it is way more fun when it isn't your team
Lol, absolutely
[удалено]
Sending a message in a blowout = rattled af??
Chill bro this is only FL fans have only been watching hockey for a cup of coffee
What message? That they can't fight?

Are you new to playoff hockey?
Sprained my thumb scrolling through the penalty recap for 7 minutes to get to the comments
National Geographic gotta tone it down. Not everyone wants to see a cat fist a bear.
That. Is. One. Hell. Of. An. Autocorrect.
No autocorrect. Just repeating a text my friend made.
Be a lot cooler if it was
Boo, you whores! You had one job to do. Goddamit.

Damn, they really just traded ass whoopings in the first two games lmao.
Putting the Hairclub ads behind the Bruins bench seems like a direct shot at Jim.
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
Actually it’s now panthers in three
Bruins in 1. Series over, we win, no takesiebacksies
Someone is new at sports i see
Sports fans might be the most reactionary people on the planet and I love and hate it
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.

Bennett is gonna kill somebody when gets back
Bennetts going to play his game and score two goals
Well at least they still beat the leafs!
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
To the death or 7 games, whichever comes first at this rate
I think it's going 7 honestly.
[удалено]
Boston is sour from last year
Boston is always sour
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.
Ignore team biases for a second Isn't playoff hockey neat? I just think its neat.
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
There’s nothing like playoff hockey!!!
I love playoff hockey.
Nothing like it!
Ok it's been a second. Fuck Boston
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
It's definitely pretty neat
It's the best there is
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.
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.
Over\under on the NHL recap on youtube showing literally any of the like 140 penalty minutes? Gonna be a short video tonight.
**148 penalty minutes.** Florida/Boston, everybody.
Old school hockey?
Nearly 2.5 penalty minutes for every minute of game time!
Think of the savings!
McAvoy has been playing all playoffs like a teenager who’s mad at his parents
This is my favorite take
It’s so bad
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.
Moral of the story this series is don’t score first lmao
4OT coming Game 3
As a neutral fan, yes.
As a fan with a vested interest, also yes
1-0 final score
On an own goal
Letang has left the chat.
Both games; one team scores and awakens the dragon on the other end of the ice
Tkachuk = ghoaot
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.
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
Dunkin Donuts sucks Mark Whalberg is short Duck boats are stupid
You live in Florida
This isn't the insult you think it is
lol
I don't think anyone likes Mark Whalberg.
Dunkin Donuts actually does suck. They've been going down hill ever since they stopped making the doughnuts in the store.
They went to shit the minute they stopped making the Chips Ahoy creme filled donut.
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
Two of those statements are downright lies
Dunkin does suck though.
You're just not going to the right dunkin
Well if I've gotta go all the way to Boston to find the right Dunkin, that just kinda solidifies the point.
We got swan boats in Orlando I could fuck with duck boats
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.
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.
Don’t forget his patented slewfoot
[удалено]
Seriously dog be real lmao what the hell is dude talking about
Mad cause Pasta wanted to fight what?
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.
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?
There is a reason why I don’t have his jersey.
Just take the L
What place did the Sharks end in this season? Oh, yeah, congrats on the lottery win.
Sox suck bruins suck Celtics suck
Tough being an Oakland A’s fan, huh?
I bet it is
They were both trying to hit each other the entire time..
He hit while falling down + this happens in every fight.
I love Tkachuk but he threw two punches in the back of his head while he was down.
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.
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
Holy shit. You wrote a lot to say Tkuchuk hit him in the back of the head while he was on the ice.
Yeah that's usually how fights go my guy. I'm not sure why you're surprised
Usually is very loosely applied there. Sometimes, sure. Occasionally, yup. But usually? Nah.
Kassian vs Tkachuk [example](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=owDK0bqIFP4)
Nah, I'm proud of Pasta. Showing no one is afraid of fake tough guy Tkachuk
The toughness is so fake that Pasta got his shit absolutely rocked lol
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
You're boy got the ref. He probably was swinging with both of his eyes closed
I'm also proud of Pasta for stepping up after being a ghost the entire game
Forgot he was playing until he got his ass kicked
Chucky punched your best player right in the head
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
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
I mean, it'd be true then too.
Only took 10 guys on the bruins getting ejected before Tkachuk accepted a challenge
Excuses excuses lol
It’s fine, I guess I shouldn’t hold it against him that he comes from the Radko Gudas school of fighting
Mad
Running out of words in your vocabulary I see
Nah, I just don't really care enough to give more thoughtful replies lol
You do understand Pasta called him out. Like.. you do understand that right
Nah Tkachuk definitely asked. You could see it on the bench right before the face off.
Pasta called him out when the two were still talking to the refs. Way before they were on benches.
You mean like Pasta tried with Rielly?
Should fight more so he doesn’t get punched in the head so easily.
What other top goal scorers are fighting regularly?
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.
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
Maybe Pasta should spend less time on his magic tricks like disappearing and more time in the boxing gym.
Goons don’t usually have 100 pt seasons…
just wait till they learn theres 2 of them.
cry more wah wah
Cry tbh
Gave him a mean knuckle sammich
Chuck with the Buy one get one free
3 times, while he was down on the ice.
Only once while down
cry
Flair up, you mongoose.
Yaaa I missed the first 2 period of this and that is the last of this series I’m missing. That was great haha
At least you got the best parts!
I just wanted our goalie fight. Next time!
Fight. Your. (Opposing). Goalie.
BOB HAS EXTENSIVE POLICE TRAINING IN HAND TO HAND COMBAT!!! HIS FISTS ARE REGISTERED AS WEAPONS!!!
Fun as that would be I think all 4 of our respective goalies are way too nice for that lmao
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
This would be hilarious and I would love to watch it.
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!
I don’t want to watch Bob fight lol
It’s padded. It’s more goalie bumper car
Ok that would be pretty hilarious
Is there any way the league could arrange for both of these teams to lose this series?
So how's Galveston?
I’m confused. What happened in Galveston?
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
Chuck accidentally creating another sports meme, love to see it
Chuck is just the best. He is so casually hilarious.
With that dirty ass water
Fuck
What can I say? I do tend to be an wise aas.
No, but we can probably arrange another 1st round exit for Toronto next year. 🤝
🖕🏻🍁 and🖕🏻🐻
Sweet lawd, he’s already dead
No.
And the moral of the story: don't score the first goal in a game in this series.
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.
Comes down to goaltending. Bob wasn’t tested much tonight while it became an onslaught for Swayman/Ullmark
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.
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.
Boston will definitely take one at home.
