    Why the fuck is Sportsnet, a Canadian broadcaster, covering a Canadian team/game, running a feature on a Bruins player and generally talking more about the Bruins.

    This is insane

  2. StaticR0ute

    You never see the fucking Edmonton broadcast feature intermission segments on the opposition players

  3. Super_Gur957

    This is the same team we’ve seen all season. A fluky 7 game win streak against low tier opponents doesn’t magically change that.

  4. A Boston love fest on SN

    What else is new lol. Honestly they are probably the most loved team behind the Leafs and Habs at least where I live. So doesn’t surprise me and I live in the west.

  5. PaleKing96

    How tf did they make the same mistake twice blowing the play dead when we had the puck

  6. leafman4000

    Im going to pull the fire alarm every intermission at SN from now on

  7. Prometheus1866

    nylander looked so stressed by the end of that commercial.

  8. Boston fans are dirty, gap-toothed, malodorous feebs. Discuss.

  9. SentenceNumber

    I’m new to ice hockey, and watching on NESN. Why did the commentator make it feel like my brain was lagging?

  10. jokerjoust

    Sportsnet providing another master class in why their broadcasts stink and TSN’s are infinitely better

  11. ChurchofFonz

    Leafs are Dust! Cant even Michy. First round exit coming up.

  12. Svalbard38

    After every sportsnet intermission I come here and see everyone complaining about it. I don’t understand why anyone still watches. There’s so many other, better ways to spend 18 minutes.

  13. Did we switch feeds? Like did we all switch to the Boston feed and not realize it?

  14. ptgrvmrdrdjhnsn

    how does JVR not get ‘nam flashbacks to 2013 when he catches a glimpse of himself in a Bruins sweater?

  15. sneed_poster69

    some of you listen to the broadcast more than you watch what’s actually happening

  16. TIGER_COOL

    Lilly needs to be on PP1. Keefe continues to frustrate

  17. LilSammyFisher

    Holy how is lily on pp2, keefer give your head a shake

  18. ptgrvmrdrdjhnsn

    you think teams track whether the opposing goalie has a neck guard on?

  19. DevOpsMakesMeDrink

    Put Lilly back on the top unit IDK why we changed what was working so well

  20. MyFriendJamieSucks

    I am begging keefe to take rielly off PP1

  21. Is it just me or the NESN announcer slur his words?

  22. im_bozack

    Worst game day thread all year. Y’all a bunch of whiners

  23. ptgrvmrdrdjhnsn

    Bruins have only gotten better over the intermission

  24. Haha. Domi drinking water by just lifting his top lip and shooting it where his teeth used to be. Dude LOVES having no teeth.

  25. Mogilny89Leafs

    The Leafs seem incapable of beating Boston. The universe won’t allow it.

  26. Beauuuuty

    Did Jack Edwards have a stroke? he sounds like he’s in slow motion

  27. DarkAgeMonks

    They play so different against the bruins than any other team.
