I concur. Total package but his achilles heel was health. Has moved on gracefully

gretz achilles heel was his not being physical at all so it takes his manliness down a bit and that wife of his... unfortunately, now the daughter suffering from whoredom

both guys have a great head of hair though.

I always thought Gretzky's Achilles heel was by-proxy gambling, allegedly.

Yes she was that whoooar. He was and is the godfather behind that curtain though with his pointy nose.

yep...has moved on gracefully...got my picture with him...still on my fridge...

FINALLY

Brad Marchand and Daniel Paille were promoted, a struggling Milan Lucic was essentially demoted, and the Bruins skated with four completely new lines during a Sunday morning practice at the TD Garden.

The shake-up:

Brad Marchand - David Krejci - Nathan Horton
Daniel Paille - Patrice Bergeron - Tyler Seguin
Milan Lucic - Rich Peverley - Jordan Caron
Jay Pandolfo - Gregory Campbell - Shawn Thornton

Asked what went into the change, coach Claude Julien said, "Because I can. Because I’m the coach. And every once in a while you have to do those things. It’s as simple as that."

Horton's been way (frank)ing worse than Looch, but glad to see the swap regardless. Little surprised Marchand and Bergy didn't stay together and have Seguin move a line. Richardnose could be good with Ute. Glad to see Paille with a promotion he's earned it.

Now show Pando the (frank)ing door.

i think they have both sucked
it's not even about the goals, it's about lucic not doing the other things that are important
he is the barometer of how they play physically, and it hasn't been there for 99% of the year

i hear people saying chara is having a norris type year..he has been solid, but the physicality has been missing from his game too

almost everyone needs to dial it up two notches..been saying it all year
i know stan was happy with the poop performances "hey, look at the record"
anyone with half a (frank)ing brain could see they were winning games they shouldn't have and it has caught up to them
the injuries are an excuse, they played like poop before them and when you play teams like ottawa who have been decimated and still get outplayed you had better look in the (frank)ing mirror

wake up boys, you are average at best when you don't work hard and when you don't play hard throughout the lineup

I like when clooode gets mad

i think he does more than most fans know
just because he isn't a loon behind the bench...

Yes I was overjoyed!

The last two have been worse thus Clode moving. I nearly popped a vessel vs. Ottawa. Thing is, again, as disheartening it can be for fans to see the Bruins not dominate each and every minute of every period of this shortened regular season, in the end, IT DOESN'T MATTER. The Bruins have already done enough to be in, deserved or not, so add that to tougher than playoff schedule and injuries and Pando and slumps and voila, you've got a regular season low.

It is still premature to conclude that play now will be indicative of play in the playoffs.

I want the Bruins to dial it up two-three notches come playoff time. Better they struggle now than then. Better they peak at the right time.

Team has proven it can pour it on when it really counts.

So despite my near aneurism vs. Sens, I remain relatively unfazed as a) the deadline approaches and b) team has playoff history. Again, game 42-46 and the team still ain't hitting its stride/starting to fire on all cylinders then yes, time to worry. Not now. Not yet.

Yes I was overjoyed!

2 years ago they did, last year..no

i am not saying to panic, what i am saying is the same thing i have been all year
they have not been playing well, and that was earlier when the schedule was in their favor

(frank)..not a bad concussion, but not mild either...

Damnitt brutal timing. Hope bergy comes back 100%

Seguin to center Looch and Horton?

Lucic-seguin-horton
Marchand-krejci-jagr

Looks like Daugavins to center instead...

Doesn't sound like he's got any lingering symptoms other than a sore neck ... assuming no set back gotta hope 7-10 days and he's back at it.

i just hope jagr does not get stuck with Pandolfo...

hope that is what it is...on the positive side would rest his body for a bit before stretch run...

i just hope jagr does not get stuck with Pandolfo...
- busher

If he does start out on the third line hopefully it's with Caron and Daugavins. No need for pandawful to ever don a Bruins jersey ever again.

Hmmm ... makes it tough to get Jags in there without giving him crap. Can see CJ being reluctant to break up Horton and Co. since he's been producing.

Maybe:

Paille - Krejci - Horton
Lucic - Campbell - Jagr
Marchand - Pevs - Seguin
Pando - Daug - Thornton

??

Something tells me Pando gets a roster spot over Caron unfortunately ... if CJ is using JP over JC for crucial moments in games and PK ... gotta think he gets the nod.

my guess / hope

lucic krecji horton
marchand peverly seguin
caron dognuts jagr
merlot
pando is golfing
