Yep. I don't know a ton about Cassidy but his presser's and quotes have been good. He and Rod the Bod seemed to be great interviews on the Eastern side. Berube just carries himself with so much tact, respect and class yet somehow isn't stoic.

Chief is a man's man.
I've met him several times.
No bullchit and no back doors with him.
High hockey IQ to boot.
Never met Butch.
Heard he was a arrogant chit head, but you hear lots of things from disgruntled former players.

LETS GO BLUES!!!!!


Stay calm. Don't let the pressure or environment affect you. Play Blues hockey and avoid unnecessary penalties

Now they are. From ten minutes on until minute 30 they took a panic attack it seemed.

How many shots did the Blues get on that 4 on 3? Jesus (frank)ing Christ...

Poor effort tonight, Bruins made the necessary adjustments and no real response like in game 1. If Dunn is healthy he needs to come in for Edmundson, hes looked awful.

Fabbri out, Sunny in?

Yes given Berube's comments when asked about sitting Perron.

I'm taking today as a self imposed day off.

Thanks for steering me to look for that! In general, I try to avoid too much of that stuff. Berube is a good interview. “In what way has he been ineffective for you?”

Berube worked some complaints about being the least penalized team in the playoffs coming into this series, yet we're noticeably losing that battle in this series comments in his presser yesterday.

Penalties weren't the reason for the outcome in Game 3, but they definitely impacted Game 1. Perron's penalty started us out in a hole and it got worse from there. No reason for Perron to initiate contact in that spot, regardless of how easy the Bruin went down.

DeBrusk should have been assessed a cross check or interference penalty before the Bruins even got to the neutral zone, well before perron's penalty but his penalty on Gunnarsson went uncalled.
