Not so sure we should be blaming the refs for the Bruins blowing a four goal lead, though the League does have a serious problem with the men in stripes
Officiating was so bad in this game. Pastrnak won that game in OT. I guess you can blow a whistle for a penalty after a team scores? Looks like it was called to negate the goal. Lightning wasn't penalized for anything in this game. WTF.
I listen to the radio broadcast while I watch game muted; For Refs to not call a single penalty of the atleast blatant four vs Tampa was frustrating. The cherry on top was the call on OT that took away game winning goal, while Ref watch swayman to to bench as Pasta rush up ice, took shot, got goal. If you listen to Pasta post game interview he was not diplomatic on his moments while owning up to teams bad penalties. Thanks for expressing what we all felt. Go Bs!
Swayman should have ignored Vas and in hopes Vas gets a penalty for skating over the line. Two guys in suits of armor swinging and falling down are ridiculous. Play for the team, not a highlight cameo.
The refs were absolute trash in this game. Call me a conspiracist but I think something happened during the first intermission where the refs were told, convinced, paid, whatever to put a stop to it because we were embarrassing Tampa through the entire first period. Call me crazy but, Tampa used the refs to put a stop to the beat down they were getting on their home turf. Disgusting!!!
Honestly, this game any complaints on officiating…. totally justified! Not whiney…. that was egregious and evident exactly what they were trying to have as the outcome. Disgusting that they got PAID FOR THEIR EXPERTISE!!
All I know i didn't sleep last night so much shit happened last night the game the penalties..pk Subban Sean McDonough the cancer kid tim McGraw. Dam fuck
I expected a loss and we got one so it didn't bother me in the end. What I love about this team is their unpredictability and their lack of give up. That :11 goal would have neutered last year's Bruins.
The goalie assignment for this game and the next are not how I would have scripted it. I still think assigning Sway in last night's game was a mistake and hope they don't go back to him for the FLA game. Sway just doesn't do well after multiple games in a row. Now, the only rational option is to go with Korp against FLA (sigh).
This team plays well 5 v 5. Playoffs usually have less penalties called. I think this team will be a headache for whoever they face first round. Maybe even surprise or upset them. First things first… get in.
These team needs to stop with the stupid penalties… Period…. If they don't….& with the way the penalty kills are going… As of late…they will not go far… They probably won't go far anyway…but definitely won't is they continue with the dumb penalties… & I'd like to give Sweeney the credit he deserves… Good job DS!!!
This!!! The refs swallowing their whistles while McAvoy is getting repeatedly mauled while he is wearing that cage us going to get him hurt. If the refs won’t call the game bodies need to hit the ice.
Those in game interviews infuriate me and that ESPN broadcast team is just the worst. They try way too hard to be like TNT Inside the NBA void of personality and charisma. Also all side line reporters should be removed from the game. But the way Emily Kaplan just rushes through her pre set questions just to get to her showing off how she knows how to say thank you in various languages really irks me.
The Bruins have given up first-round picks for rentals before. Kastelic is good on face-offs. Maybe they should have him out there for some of the penalty kill duites.
Looking like hockey is going the way of the NFL, NCAA, NBA. So much money being involved and more and more teams clogging the arteries. Money corrupts. Face it pro sports is a rich mans rigged game. It is done mainly with the officiating. You pay players millions and who cares win or lose? You still get the bread. The NFL is the most glaring, it is listed as entertainment, no different than the WWE. Some games are probably honest but when the big show comes along the big bets roll with it.
Koodos to you low qual for not whining as much as you'd like to, I on the other hand will. This was terribly officiated it was waaaay too blatantly one sided, these refs.know the bruins are the most penalized and have the top two penalized players in the league so they can just fall back on that as an excuse. The league clearly wants certain outcomes at certain times in certain games. This was highway robbery by the refs.

Might as well have watched professional wrestling.
Kucherov is the best player in the NHL.
Dog walking 😂 right, yeah!
This game was so fun. Gg. That being said this one was a total gut punch. Go Bruins
The refs weren't objective.
They didn't call anything on the bolts.
Also, the Bruins had to many penalties. See how that points to one issue…

Hugely impressed by this year's squad. Far better than I thought they'd be. Still retooling.
i blame Tim McGraw for taking any momentum during the 1st intermission.
I’m surprised the officials weren’t dressed up as pirates as well
The Bruins don’t get games where the officiating is lopsided for them though.

When someone is told, “If you keep it up, you will go blind”…you can always become a ref😂🤬

The best was when there was a good scrum and the camera panned immediately to Tim McGraw standing on a novelty pirate ship for 2 minutes

Viktor Arvidsson has No Movement Clause

If they have any more traffic to the penalty box, the MBTA is going to make it a T stop.

Poitras looked shockingly large. He is big enough to play in the league now

5×5 play was amazing and loved to see the young centers do well. Amazing pass from Kastelic, but fantastic goal from Poitras.

Good game, Boston gets too many penalties…has been the story all season long
The refs sucked. I could hear McAvoy yelling at the refs from my couch
WHAT THE FUCK are those yellow jerseys.
I'm sorry, I said it.

I think I’m now at a point in my life where I live for the skits. 😍
Kastelic has to cut the shit now.
The Bruins have given up first-round picks for rentals before. Kastelic is good on face-offs. Maybe they should have him out there for some of the penalty kill duites.

The worst part of the game was having to watch that entire broadcast
