Come on Bruins. You have to beat the leafs. They have 4 players making more than half the cap. You have to beat them. Have to continue their long no cup run.

2nd round should be
Bruins
Rangers
Hurricanes
Panthers

Without my Blues even in the race I’m all for the Bruins for the Cup

Besides the oilers I don’t want anyone in the west to win it all. McDavid and Draisaitl are fun to watch.

Good for captain pinhead. Love Marchand. Love that Blues only play against him 2x a year.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, gotta stay with Sway!

I disagree with deviating from the rotation at this juncture. With the current rotation if the series goes to 7 then Sway plays two more games anyway. Don't like having to rely on a cold goalie if "something goes wrong"...just look at game 7 last playoffs. Keep both netminders "in the game", so to speak, and ready. It has worked all season for the most part.

For me, Ullmark for game 4. If he wins, continue the rotation, if he loses roll sway for the rest of the series

I wouldn't use a straight "if he loses" test, it would depend how he lost. So depending on how, I would be fine with this plan.

I mean, the point is moot now. Sway got the start. But I would absolutely do it he loses. At that point you're talking about a team playing better in front of one goalie than the other. Speaks volumes.

Anywho it's a hypothetical now. So cheers. Enjoy the leafy blues

Sway got the start. So good call. If he wins, I don't think we see ullmark again this series unless sway gets pulled

Bruins need to keep their foot on the gas.

Can't be scrambling around like they did on Marner's goal.

Idiot Debrusk- make that Pasta - as bad as Marner's penalty.

He certainly did.

Big question is - do they continue with the hot goaltender or go back to rotation?
