Over the Detroit Red Wings this is Bruins overtime live presented by biot toyota.com for offers Not Seen On TV visit biot toyota.com happy New Year the Boston Bruins ending 2023 on a good note extending that win streak to three games guys I say this a lot I’m going to let

You be the analyst but I was just thinking about did we see many games like this last season where the Bruins have pulled together a stretch of coming from behind defending the lead after giving up two goals really efforting it out and getting these types of wins not

As much lastas analysis I don’t know you go home I’m ready to go yeah you are she’s making us s all right I’ll stay but what do you think about those I don’t know all know I feel like Elton John and the guy from uh Monopoly it was

Very very as bricket said very gritty effort it really was I mean you only had 22 hours of rest and uh we talked in the pregame about the reset that happened at Christmas and now that’s three good wins um you know two on the road good situation where you’ve been able to uh

Kind of change your game cuz going into into it they they lost four in a row they were not playing Brewing like hockey no and tonight it was not only was it a big road win with not a lot of rest got a little chippy and they hung

In there and they won some battles they did the little things you have to do on the road to win and I I think the chippiness that the anger U really helped them in this game it really helped keep them engaged early right yeah the momentum the energy everything

The the vibe and so that was I I think actually you thank Detroit for doing that you’re like okay thanks but the other thing is you you go back to last year so so different I mean so so different and different Personnel on the ice the situation what I like most about

It is middle of the ice protected again yes Detroit scored a power play goal late but overall the PK was instrumental compared to the previous two wins that Detroit had against them and everything these glasses are falling off they’re awful thank God but overall I mean

Listen I I I agree with Barry it was a real again they were they were invested in this and that’s awesome I thought like the bruss goal the second effort for him the an goal along the line poson ha winning a battle on last goal spoon block his stuff yeah

Especially in that last PK was very or the one before the goal it was very effective yes uh the Charlie Coyle getting number 13 getting his 13th of the Season here this was big after that uh how does it start a one face off oh they were getting absolutely shellacked

In this game in the faceof circle and then they set their play up we haven’t seen this play much compared to other ones so they added this to the Playbook so to speak Barry this was absolutely they were this was harmonious orchestral the way that they were and Charlie makoy

Starts it with great acceleration and and Maran of course comes in and helps out too Billy he’s not sure if you’re going to win the face off he’ve been having trouble so let’s get the Wingers to come right in there he does a great job of allowing makoy as you said a set

Play come on both guys come down to me that means the slots wide open mako’s legs were good today they were despite the unknown of how that LE leg or knee whatever was dinged up late last night he was moving he sure he he sure did great goal huge goal

Because after giving up the two nothing lead it kind of felt like next goal was going to win kind of felt like that right exactly and Here Charlie Coyle comes down there and he continues his scoring ways after going through a stretch like the rest of the team where

He didn’t score much and don’t forget too on that delay of the game where they tied it on the the goal that we just you know we didn’t agree with them on let say they had to go out and kill another penalty right after that you’re short-handed because of that all of a

Sudden if you go down 3-2 that was a real pivotal part that you were able to kill that off and not allow the momentum to get too one-sided on you well let’s hear what Charlie Coyle’s thoughts were on this team when he spoke with Adam Pellerin oh Charlie a lot to like with

This one but let’s start with the message after the second period when the Red Wings came back and tie it what was the conversation like in the room well you just you know they’re good team we’re on a backto back uh they’re of course going to make a push and we

Expect to be a tough game they play us tough every time we play them especially especially in this building um there’s no Panic two two to two uh tied game on the road heading into the third period we we’ll take that any day and um it’s

Not hard to muster up some energy and get the job done and um everyone played a part everyone focused on the details the little things and it pays off when we do things like that and we’re successful because of it a hardfought game uh things didn’t go your way in the

Face off Circle but you’re able to win the face off and then score uh what was the go-ahead goal at the time take us through that yeah win one draw uh score a goal I should have done that more often but um that’s an area I got to be

Better at so we play with the puck a little more um but it it just you know we have a a set play going in um that we try to stick to if things go according to plan and um Chucky comes down with it there’s some good picks I think by Mary

And JD that are kind of subtle and I don’t think JD gets a point on it and and and those subtle picks and movement and what he does on that doesn’t find the score sheet but it’s it’s so big and we don’t score if it’s if it’s not for

Those little things that the average person doesn’t see and uh that’s what JD’s been bringing and it’s so huge for us and we’re just happy to capitalize on that but it was a great play play by everyone around and finally what does to say about this group you know you had

The losing streak and then you come back from break you win the three straight and then you win this one the second of a back toback well it’s huge it’s it’s you know you go into there’s a couple little breaks during the season Christmas is one of them and things

Weren’t going according to plan uh heading into that but we you know we reset we have a few days we spend time with your families and get away from hockey for a bit and refresh the mind come back hungry and and ready to work again we had a couple of great practices

Some of our best practices uh that we’ve had all season and it doesn’t fully translate but we we we picked it up from there and and executed what we did in practice and things we’ve gone over and and um it’s helped us tremendous tremendously in in games and um they say

You play the way you practice so we’ll keep that recipe and I think it’s going to keep happening for us Charlie congrats on the win and happy New Year Happy New Year to you too thank you okay Barry you mentioned that penalty kill for delay of game for that

Challenge was very big but one power play goal on eight power plays for the Detroit Red wi that one at the end there that they scored but otherwise the penalty kill was very good yeah I think it was one for six I believe that’s all

Right but yeah it was this was a they got the late power play goal which obviously hanging on but to me the the key was as I had said that second period where they didn’t allow and also in the first period Billy when they were down a

Couple you know early you’re on the road it’s one of those situations you’re trying to find your game the power play the penalty killing did a great job and it has been struggling of late so this was a really good effort for them to come up at a time when they really

Needed them yeah let’s not forget the previous two wins by the Red Wings they had two powerfully goals in each of those games yeah so you know the Bruins and and they exposed the Bruins in the middle of the ice and the Bruins were much better here middle of the ice yeah

They got a couple of saves but overall I really like the way that they were able to control middle ice more they didn’t allow tons of Point Blank chances from there and Parker Withers I mean 507 on the PK second most in the team you know

Uh behind Carlo who had 509 he’s taking for bir’s Place well yeah I mean he’s do because he’s doing stuff like that he’s getting himself to the front of the net very willing to block shots I I really like like right there the position positioning the inside positioning

Really good and so instrumental to this game was the Bruins PK efficiency yeah if you look at their previous five games and then their last three which of course have been wins 12 for 14 penalty kill sitting at 85.7% to open the scoring back-to-back goals for him Trent Frederick uh got it

Going for the Boston Bruins early on yeah he was really involved not only on the goals with an assist but also the body the physical the skating did a great great job here pasta knock Sand Wedge as he takes this to his backand and I think the way the the way lion

Played this Billy he just kind of thought that he was either going to run out of room and he kind of lost the angle but it was a tremendous shot as lion kept sliding to his left awesome shot yeah I mean he got everything on this one lion ends up getting hurt he

Was able to stay in the game but love the way that he executed that PL and then right here he uses his defenseman shirat the guy that he challenged to a fight l literally second after he scored the first goal he used him as a bit of a

Screener we think it may have just ticked off the right skate but there’s makoy leaving the puck then for Frederick Frederick gets by the defender in the neutral zone look at the Gap that he’s got on sherat he’s able to use him whether it ticks his right skate or not

He using bit enough of a screen that lion is he thinking that the puck May either go over pass over to uh Heinen or is he just reading too much to that right side regardless it’s the second goal of the game for Trent Frederick yeah the other good thing but as we just

Talked about to he had his teammates backs today he was in there every scrum was in there you could tell he was talking to the other uh Detroit players that were pushing around yeah he is our Subaru star of the game so goals 89 for Trent Frederick Bruins this is Trent’s

Excuse me second multi Go game of the season and if we look at the most multile games for the Bruins in the last two season Trent Frederick behind David pass well behind him but still nice to see him second on the list there three-point night for him all right even

With the silly hats on we’re going to get serious in time to discuss this allowed goal after it was challenged for goalie interference well we kind of as they announced to us it was because the stud he was outside the blue paint which we didn’t necessarily agree with but I

Think you’ve got some added information from the NHL my friend well yeah I mean you know the talk about as well well yeah the NHL sends us emails and you know I we’re looking for explanation because again it doesn’t the goalie first of all has to be protected second

Of all you can’t just have free reain on the goalie no matter what now you got to determine is it incidental contact or not regardless now they’re saying that angle right there is what they used Barry they it comes down from the league they say quote after video review it was

Determined that the actions of Brandon Carlo contributed to Detroit’s Michel Russ M making contact stick contact with Jeremy Swan’s glove outside the crease and therefore did not cons constitute gender interference but that’s not what we heard no no no not we didn’t hear that at all right it’s you know you we

Heard just that it was uh it was anyways contact outside the crease didn’t matter whatever so I think it would have helped if it the game of telephone if it went from there to there and it was the right thing I think it would alleviate now

Whether you agree with it or not that last angle you said it when we were watching he said that one maybe you could say that Carlos lift the stick but the other angle didn’t seem like it at all no I agree and of course the confusion becomes it was a it took so

Long yeah and then all of a sudden when you come out with the announcement and it’s completely contradictory to what that is right that’s where it’s that was poor execution we have the announcement so let’s play it for you after video review it was determined that the contact was made outside of the

Blue therefore this is not go oh my so so you have contact mates outside the blue paint that’s fine but the context of again I’ll quote it it was determined that the actions of Brandon Carlo contributed Detroit’s Michael rest M stick making contact with Jeremy San’s glove outside the crease missed an awful

Lot yeah yeah different very different there so so but let’s I’m not going to get upset at the official it’s it’s a communication thing but again give the Bruins a lot of credit because that could have gone the other way real quick on you they tied the game they have a

Power play opportunity because of the coach’s Challenge and then you have to regroup in the second period they did a great job on the road they did they’ve showed some mental fortitude the last two games yes absolutely well we’re going to hear from their head coach Jim Montgomery who goes one-on-one with Andy

Brookley next on his thoughts to this game and we’re going to hear from some of the players right after the break
