Ty Anderson: B's stay alive with Game 5 win; Montgomery mocks Panthers' dives

Swayman. Any doubt about this kid should be 100% gone. He's the guy.

Was thrilled to see Charlie McAvoy has arrived in the post season. While D wasn't perfect I thought he stood out last night.

I think at this point Pavel Zacha should just take face offs and then immediately get the (frank) off the ice. Useless personified.

If Marchand is healthy Zacha should be scratched or fired into the the sun. Either would get it done for me.

Was a good win. More shots was nice to see. Swayman is unreal and they better have a contract waiting for him the second the Bruin's are done this post season.

Like you said, far from perfect but a much better game. Still have a few passengers and unfortunately Zacha has been one of them.

I'm just glad that no Bruins players have ever dove or embellished.

Don't be mad that Monty used Billy Barber as an example for a good diver

Man I'm telling you, They just keep turning the Puck over in All 3-Zones all game long, they somehow ended up only giving up one goal Thanks to Swayman.
I do admit before this playoff series I was on the Ullmark Wagon and was saying I'd trade Sway before Ully. Sway was always giving up one bad goal early in the Game - That is no longer the case, I think we've seen him mature right in front of our eyes, Good on Sway.
Now Win a Fuc*ing Home Game for F's Sakes, 2-4 at the Garden this year is just Mind Blowing, Figure it out and stop with the poopty passes to each other, Play to Win Boys, Pressure is on Florida right now.
LFG !!!

Yeah him and JVR have really done just absolutely (frank) all. Thankfully JVR is a 1 year deal.

Oh no, Barber used to do a Superman impression. When did I deny that he was a complete diver?

JVR and Maroon are the two in particular that have not provided much. Zacha was at a minimum very solid on faceoffs last night and led the way on the PK. I would not consider that useless.

Zacha. Goal. Friday. Book it.

Friendly wager on it?

I say he doesnt get a goal Friday.

Loser has to go into the Leaf's thread and post something nice about their team and respond kindly to anyone who replies to the post.

they got momentum now, and a rested Marchand should be back for friday.

Don’t threaten me with a good time 😂. I’m in.

Nice to see my birthday wish came true and they pulled out a win.

McAvoy's goal... challenged? Ain't karma a b!tch.

Would like to see Frederic get more engaged as well. He hasn't been a passenger, but it would be nice for him to just be more of a poophead to the panthers players.

I think they need to abandon the poop disturbing for the series. They need to focus and just play their game. They were up 2-0 and then Maroon started challenging players in game 4. Swayman challenged Tkachuk at one point. McAvoy in particular has been going way out of position to try and land big hits and that has proven costly so far.

No reason to give them extra motivation. Clog up the neutral zone, slow them down and win the next two.

I still think the Bruins play better when they have a bit of an edge. But I agree they went too far and got away from their game. Want to see them push and make them take dumb penalties, but still play their game. They had their best stretches during the regular season when they played like this. Marchand is obviously the catalyst for that kind of thing, but Frederic can be good at it too. Maroon maybe if he gives up the fighting bit and just drives hard to the net.

He's 4th liner and is doing his job. His role isn't to necessarily to provide offense. 4th line for the most part has been having good energy shifts.

JVR is a washed goal scorer who doesn't score anymore. He also does literally nothing else.

Pavel Zacha is a 6th overall pick who gets the playoff's flu every year he's been in them. Guy is a bust. Like I said win the draw and immediately get off the ice for a player who actually contributes something.

Can we return him and get Haula back?

Me too but like you guys discussed would prefer he does it on the scoreboard.

I appreciated Haula's season with the Bruins. I like the way he played but the Zacha for Haula trade was a resounding win for the Bruins. Some players take time to find their stride in the NHL and Zacha is absolutely finding his since joining the Bruins.

Haula is also like 7 years older.

Zacha has played 24 playoff games has 0 goals and 11 assists.
Haula has played 73 playoff games has 16 goals, 20 assists 36 points.

In the right now, I would take Haula. Zacha is 27, neat. So he vanishes a few steps quicker?

this yeah Haula was a -6, with 6 points, and Zacha's a +1 with 5 points.

Everyone on NJ sucked this year pretty much. Still produces more in the post season than Bustvel Bustcha. At least he's not expensive or long term.
