2022-2023 Boston Bruins Season

[ozgod]

The team picked a fine time to start playing like garbage, especially Ullmark. Gonna be super embarrassing as a fan if they lose this series, and I already feel embarrassed that it's even going the distance—this should not be happening.

subtraction of fear by the underdog can lead to some crazy results. Miracle on Ice  or in our case Nightmare on Ice

Yeah, if you're the 8 seed, you really have no reason to fear anything, might as well leave it all out on the ice (or court, or field). And being possibly the best regular-season team ever brings big expectations and thus pressure. Looks like Boston can't handle it. If they lose Game 7, I might just forget the Bruins even exist.

Rough time to be a Boston sports fan these days

When did this team start having so many puck giveaways, in their own end no less, that result directly in Florida goals ?

It really is maddening. I feel like most of their goals this series have been on terrible giveaways/mishandles or power plays. And then Ullmark cant help out at all, definitely not looking like the Vezina trophy winner lately. I might go with Sway game 7

[Roy H.]

Gotta go with Swayman for Game 7.

Gotta go with Swayman for Game 7.

Yeh.  Hindsight 20/20 but he probably should have started last night, so you’d at least have a little wiggle room if he was rusty.

He was shockingly bad last night. Looked jittery, unfocused, uncoordinated. It's especially alarming,  as the Bruins have cut back on the catastrophic turnovers that plagued them earlier in the series. Although they are still taking more risks in their own zone than I would like.

Bruins title hopes are resting on Swayman right now. The defense isn't good enough to cover for a goalie playing as badly as Ullmark.

What a sad state of affairs.

Pats and Red Sox aren't close to winning a title right now. B's, Revs and C's are our only hope for the near future. It's been a 4 year drought now. Come on, lets go teams!

Shows how spoiled we’ve become when half our teams are title contenders and it’s a “rough time to be a Boston sports fan”; most fan bases are lucky if they have one any given year

1-0 Florida 7 min left in the first

My sphincter is tightening already 

[Roy H.]

I give all kinds of credit to Florida, but if the Bruins had stuck to defensive-style Bruins hockey, this series would be over already.

[kraidstar]

If the Bruins lose this series, the fans should boycott until Jacobs sells the team. The rot starts at the top

I don’t know, they put together a team and coach that had the best ever regular season. From what I can see the players are just choking under the pressure of expectation.

Not feeling good. Getting serious 2019 SCF Game 7 vibes, or even Game 5 of this series

Came out buzzing, had momentum, but didn't score any goals while FLA got a soft one...
