Man that was an ugly loss, and at home too..  :'(

B's better show up Game 4, otherwise I don't see them winning this series if they drop that game too. B's also need to start shooting the puck on net more. Way too much passing and slick moves which Tampa snuffs out, and lets be real, you aren't scoring if you aren't shooting on net that often.

Boston has been playing poorly for a while now, with few flashes here and there of getting back on track. They almost chocked on the first round, and now they're getting bum-rush.

First line is key. When they do well, the team does well. It seems like they have been trying way too much lately. Pasta passes or makes slick moves in moments where he should shoot, and then when he needs to make the extra pass, he just throws a low-quality shot right at the goalie. As for Marchand, I love him, but it feels like all he's been doing the last few games is falling to the ice and just going into the offensive zone and then losing it. Real frustrating.

Let's not go overboard. They've traded away wins with the best team in the Eastern Conference. If they win their next game, the series is back to normal.

The last two games sure have been a couple of stinkers but I think we'll see a lot better performance next game. The Bruins always seem to play better when their backs are against the wall.

Yeah, they’ve held serve with the #1 seed. There’s no need to panic.

They are getting exposed by beating the #3 seed in the conference and are so far holding serve against the #1 seed in the conference. They had 2 bad games. That hapoens even in the playoffs with good teams. Lord knows the 2008 Celtics played some stinkers during that playoff run to the title.

I think it sucks that as a #2 seed they are getting screwed over by this idiotic playoff seeding by having to beat the #3 and #1 seed just to make it to the conference final. What bozo dreamt upped that stupid playoff seeding? Just moronic.

Totally agree, especially about the playoff format. The #2 seed shouldn't have to face a #3 until the second round, and shouldn't have to face a #1 until the conference finals.

Bruins started game 4 the way Celtics last night down 2-0. We stormed back to 3-2 and then horrible non call take down which leads to Tampa tying- garbage officiating strikes again.

OT——should be exciting- hope we pull this out

This could be our season right here... unless of course if we score in OT.

That's really too bad. A 2-2 series is much different than being down 3-1. This series should have taken place next round anyway...bummer  :-\
