Ty Anderson: New Bruins first line showing serious potential; Subban shines

Great write up Ty.
Eat poop hawk fans.

You mean Icehog fans? Maybe 5 roster players were on last night. Jordin Tootoo was wearing an "A." The Bruins are bad. Brad Marchand had an IQ of about 65.

Bruins will finish with more points than the Blackhawks this year. Three good forwards and one defenseman ain't gonna get you far bud. Their NHL roster is basically the ice hogs now

Your B's are turning a corner...and I really like some of your good young talent.

But, c'mon sport....
No Toews
or Kane
or Keith
or Seabrook
or Anisimov
or Sharp


Temper your expectations some. A good showing, but hardly against the best the Hawks have to offer....

Well done using the word penultimate.

It seems as though the first and third lines are close to set as Bergeron, Marchand, Bjork and Vatrano, Spooner, and Backes. Seems like the second line really needs to be figured out on the left side. I don't know if Debrusk is really ready. I'm more inclined to see Czarnik tried out on that wing. Maybe Thursday should be Czarnik and Debrusk and maybe even Fitzgerald getting rotations in that spot.

Go smoke some more Flakka BUD. Vegas odd makers have the hawks tied for 3rd best odds at winning the cup this year champ. Still bitter from 2013?

great, Hawk fans

that's not entirely accurate is it?

4 teams, Hawks are 1, have 12-1 odds.

Oh some of them where horrendous during the 2013 Final. Otherwise it was decent affair. Unlike some Northwest Canadian city in 2011...

Bjork is very exciting player to watch. He looks very good with Bergeron and Marchand.

HEY! Subban didn't poop his pants!

Hey man, Blackhawks getting old, no replacement for Hossa or Hjalmarsson. Seabrook is garbage. Playing in the toughest division in hockey. Bruins getting younger, showed a lot of promise under Cassidy and play in one of the weakest divisions. It's common sense really

Subban was a pleasant surprise last night.

and you have to think Kane has at least one more "no means yes" in him.

I'm thinking Debrusk has that spot on lockdown. I could see Czar beating out Acciari but I guess that would depend on if they want skill or grit on the 4th. Lineup seems pretty set except for the 4th line. I'm betting on Belesky Nash Acciari opening night

(frank) them and Old Style pisswater

Touchy bunch of broads, aren't they?

'
they don't have a football team or a basketball team..
take it easy on them, its almost all they got.

(Disclaimer- always been my 2'd fav team)

Oh Boy here we go,

I like to be optimistic, but.....

See how Krejci looks, That's Key

I think Debrusk is going to have to really show he can compete at this level to earn that spot. Czar has shown it and has experience along with Schaller and Kuraly and Acciari. Throw in Nash and Belesky who are locks for the 4th line and it is some steep competition. I agree with the 4th line projection though, would assume Acciari stays there. The injuries to JFK and Agostino have helped Debrusk though, it is his for the taking.

hahaha

Krejci in a fight last night? wow.. not something you see a lot of. I read that Vatrano's on the bubble, thought he was pretty much a lock after last year, if they send him down, someone is gonna claim him.

I heard that one radio last night, ha ha ha!

I really want to see Vatrano succeed. He has a wicked shot but most of the shots are coming form the perimeter. Not going to truly produce that way. If he changes that part of his game he will produce.

Edit: From what I've seen I'd rather they start the season with Vatrano over DeBrusk.

No to close the book as the say, but last year was his year to establish himself and he failed, he got pushed around quite frequently towards the end of the year and especially in the Playoffs, he'll probably get another chance at some point this year but he will need to stick up for himself more.
