Isles……. less travel
I think it's the Islanders! Which means I'm going to gm 4 and 5 here in NY! Chalie MacAvoys back yard! Let's go Bruins
So As far as trying to analyze what will happen?
It's the playoffs. Who knows?
So the only thing to say is what you said earlier in the year when the Bruins had a 2 game losing streak.
We will trust in Bergy..marshy..and the other Bruins leadership to make sure this team is ready…for anyone.
We are the best team in the league….period. get out there and show it.
Panthers would make a nice warm up
I hope that you get better sooner than later.I believe that we’re in for a long run.GO BRUINS!
I’m not too worried about the lines I anticipate injuries on both offense and defense with the physicality of the playoffs. We have amble depth this year vs. prior runs. Fliggy had a tough season coming off his prior injury. It can be tough to bounce back at his age although he does bring a leadership element to the picture.
It doesn't matter neither of these teams can beat the Bruins in a 7 game series! Lets Go!
You know that the Bruins are playing the Florida Panthers, that was settled last night, when the Islanders won.
THE BRUINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Weren’t you supposed to beat the islanders 2 years ago to? How’s that work out
I have a question for maybe you're next mailbag, Ian do you think the Bruins have faced enough adversity to be ready for the playoffs? are they ready for the push they'll get from the teams they'll face for each round. I don't think they've faced a lot of adversity this season but I still think they'll be ready. it will be interesting to see how they respond being down by one, two or even three goals early or late in the playoffs. I'm excited and confident with this team but still nervous at the same time anything can happen.
