Looks like Couturier will be scratched again tonight.

He owes it to the guys on the ice last game to not change anything

he would help. Think they need that good top 4 dman as well.

They have the assets and young nhl players acquire what they need imo.

They have 2 number one picks and a number 4 over all….on their D….it’s an embarrassment of riches….maybe a little more development time….but with a bit of time and a couple of seasoned NHL types, some decent coaching this team will be better.

does that equate to they are all ready to carry the load? they seemed to have soured on power a bit as well Samuelsson (who it seems is always hurt).

they cant keep waiting. when you do that time never comes. no reason not to add up front and on d this offseason.

Dahlin is already there….Power is like York here….he’s taken major steps this year. Byram has the chance to be special…. He’s really good already, just needs the chance. Odd, I’m not sure he gets it in Buffalo with Dahlin there, with regards to offensive opportunities….but I think next year at this time we’ll be talking about the most talented D core in the entire NHL.

have you watched Kochetkov on any consistent basis?
- hello it's me 2050


Considering how bad he was to start the season, the fact that his numbers are almost perfectly average now says a lot about how good he has been in the second half.

I think he has the chance to be a top pairing guy….not elite, but more an Eric Desjardins.

So back to Pastrnak, if you want a true sense of what Boston thinks of Pastrnak, here it is, but watch the at least 8 minutes of it.

The only thing consistent with your opinions is that they're consistently wrong. Your childish and unsupported claims about who has done what and who has played the game is just in a indication of your lack of intelligence and is not an effective retort. It's the only avenue you have since you can't show any intelligence involving the sport of hockey.

You posted many times Frost was playing fine and didn't have to change anything. Well it's crystal clear Frost did and he admitted it right in front of Bill (who asked the first question) in his post game. You're wrong .. again .. and everyone knows it! So you can keep insulting me all you want, it's just the last gasp of a dying poster!

It's scary that someone would post an idiotic opinion of one person and think that it indicates what Boston thinks about Pasternak. To think that it represents a true sense. The only true sense it shows is how foolish you are.

One that doesn't get talked about enough is trading Hartman for a replacement player.
