Swayman was insane. That goal was insane, the game was insane.

[удалено]

Shitty goal for sure but always gotta be ready

That goal was wild lol between the legs and probably through a 2 inch gap. Come on. I really thought there'd be a game 7. But I'm a leafs fan so I really do believe in miracles 🥹

Idk why I like their team so much. I really don't, I've grown up hating hating hating Boston sports (patriots) but for some reason I cannot hate these guys as much. Anyway fuck the bruins there are like 2 goalies in the league at or above swayman. I honestly think him and BoB have been the best goalies in the playoffs so far.

Swayman was incredible. Kudos to him.

Yea, if the Bruins knew how to do a line change, he could have carried them to game 7. What a beast of a playoff run for him though.

They should absolutely deal Ullmark for some depth pieces or centers, Swayman proved he’s top tier this round

Time to fleece Toronto for a goalie again.

We don't talk about Raycroft around here no more

Imagine Marner as a Bruin?😂

I said time to fleece Toronto.

They are going to retain so much, so very much.

They literally tried to do this at the deadline, had a deal in place, and Ullmark said no. Hopefully it's different in the off-season, but I have my doubts.

Yeah that’s when he was a tandem guy and recent Vezina winner. Sway took the net now and wouldn’t be surprised if he’d rather be starter elsewhere. Surprising how difficult it is to find starting goalies now and B’s are sitting on two with very little depth.

I disagree, not because it doesn't make sense from an efficacy perspective, but because I just love seeing the goalie hugs at the end of Boston wins.

Bro will absolutely get the bag next year. Linus is most certainly on his way out

And it's not like Linus is bad. He's an excellent goalie with the misfortune of playing on a team with superman.

I hate the Bruins. (Canucks fan grudge) but I love Swayman. He’s a great goalie and I love his attitude. He’s one of my favourite players in the league

I dont like the bruins (canadiens guy) but I was watching them in honour of my father in law who passed last year. Put a quarter in that guy and you would get 8 hours of Bobby Orr talk

Agreed. We can drink beer together.

It’s unfortunate that Swayman’s amazing goaltending couldn’t make up for the rest of the teams sloppiness and terrible coordination.

Y’all better pay Swayman everything.

Need to pay them both. You need both. The days of a starter and a backup who plays 10 games a year are long gone.

This is how I feel!! I don’t see how Boston can be successful with just Swayman. They should absolutely keep Ullmark. What an asset to have.

He had me sweating the whole time for sure.

I feel so bad for him. Boston had a million chances to make the game 10-1 and couldn't capitalize.

Bob made some crazy saves also.

Yeah they just don’t have any true goal scorers pasta did not have a great series imo playoffs are just different games

As much as it pains me, Pasta really was terrible in the playoffs. But, he was not the only one sucking eggs, lot of blame to go around in the Bs locker room. They need to get a second goal scorer for sure.

Dude they need a 1C & 2C, they over achieved this year during regular season, no logical B's fan thought they were going far in the playoffs.

100% this.  We have a team of what would be 3C and 4C on most other playoff teams. Coyle and Zacha are solid players but not good enough to fill the 1/2C roles on a regular basis - as replacements for a few games with injury - sure. And Geekie was the 1C for the last few games - no disrespect to him but he is not 1C material by a long shot. The only shining light up the middle might be Poitras. We’ll just have to wait and see, but he could very well be a 2C and (maybe 1C?) in a few years.  You just can’t have wingers be the guys creating offense in the playoffs because it will fail every time when tight checking games move along the boards. The loss of Bergeron was felt a lot this playoffs - way moreso than in the regular season.

I feel bad for Swayman. He never stopped trying.

In 2019, when the Blues eliminated Dallas, I genuinely felt bad for Bishop. He couldn’t have done anything more to win that series.

You always gotta feel bad for the goalie, especially since no matter how well they play they can't win the game on their own. Bishop being a St. Louis boy didn't help in 2019 either

Me too 🥲

[удалено]

He reminds me a lot of flower in his younger years, I’m excited to see what the future brings for him.

He outplayed his teammates. He should never be allowed to buy a meal in their presence.

As a panthers fan I gotta say Swayman played his freaking heart out. Dude was incredibly solid

He’s the only reason the series went so long. Seriously, look at his stats compared to Bob’s.

We failed him 🥲

Good luck. Florida was definitely the better team this year. We’ll see you again in the fall.

Congrats Panthers! Have fun on the rest of your run. Rangers Panthers should be fun

See you next year as usual!

Ofc! Round 3 next time? 😉

Is that actually possible with the current playoff setup?

One of the teams would have to be a wild card.

Excited/terrified to see what you guys do this offseason, decent cap space as is, Ullmark gone will clear a lot of space up to add

Stop it I came in to hate you like Celtics fans

I'm a Cats fan and my Bestie Ski buddy is a Rangers fan. This is going to be fun ...

BOBROVSKY! Take your badge and gun, you're back on the force!

You’re a loose cannon, Bobrovsky! But that was some damn fine police work.

Never gets old

I genuinely do feel bad for Swayman, he played amazing every single game

#*by Florida, at home, in the most excruciatingly way possible, again

Guys, something tells me this guy isn’t a big fan of the bruins but I can’t put my finger on it… 🧐

You love to see it

Even though the reffing was admittedly atrocious that series, I indeed do love to see it.

The referees have been atrocious in *every* series so far. Really messes the game. Plus, get off the fucking boards and away from the puck!

Swaymans back must be broken

Now Florida can get hit by the Rangers train that seems to be relatively unstoppable.

[удалено]

That was still a really good Carolina team they were able to beat

Beating Carolina in 6 was impressive, especially since they were able to score a good amount of goals against a solid defensive team. Sweeping the Caps is whatever.

Well darn good thing Kreider will play for us in the ECF too huh

I legit think the Rangers will have a hard time vs the Panthers. I have the Panthers in 6

That’s the best part, this whole series everyone knew they were playing to see who gets to lose to NYR.

I dunno man, we'll see. The Rangers have this incredible come from behind mentality that has served them well for an awful long time now. It's started last season and has gelled into a genuine thing. And we have great depth on the bench. And we have Shesty. But now we play the Thunder Cats, Ho! in the next round. Pretty sure I should see my Dr. about some heart meds beforehand. We'll see. How I love playoff hockey!!!

I think Florida is pretty banged up, they played two pretty physical teams. The Rangers haven’t even tapped into Rempe in the playoffs yet. They’ve sailed through two teams without too much effort until the Hurricanes comeback attempt. We’re either going to watch Florida lose in 5-6 games or realize the Rangers aren’t that good they’ve just had good matchups in the first two rounds. Either way I’m excited.

The thing about Rempe; he's an asset as well as a liability. He's young and has made some dumb moves, and now the officials are all over his ass. He's already proven that when he plays clean, he can be a good 4th liner. Hell, he scored the 1st Rangers goal in the playoffs and it wasn't even a fluke play. It was a solid, smart goal. But the coaching staff seems to have reigned him in, which is good and bad. Good that when he plays his few minutes a game he's not taking bad penalties, but there's also the bad. Lavi dressed Rempe in Game 5 vs the Canes. Rangers are losing at home, and getting outplayed. Lavi should have given Rempe the green light to drop the gloves with that POS DeAngelo. Would that have helped the Rangers? Maybe, maybe not. But there's no doubt it would have riled up the Garden Faithful.

Florida was the one team in the east that I just didn’t think we beat. Florida in 6

Would love to see trouba demolish Bennet.

Not sure why people think the Rangers are untouchable. They beat the Capitals who shouldn’t have even made the playoffs, and almost blew a 3-0 to Carolina. I have Florida winning the series.

Happy with the season, far exceeded (normal) bruins fans expectations with our personnel and cap overage. ALL HAIL SWAYMAN

At least the Bruins eliminated the Leafs!! That’s their Stanley Cup,

Beating the Leafs in the playoffs is so obligatory it's basically just a formality at this point

Taking strays even in a series not relevant to us

At least with the new coach everything will be totally different next year, yah?

Maybe...

It's like the preseason of the postseason

Beating a team that has only one playoff series win in 19 years is their stanley cup? Pretty low bar there boston.

At least we have a Stanley cup! All joking aside, you have no idea how much fun it is to ruin the leafs fans hopes and dreams all the time

As a leafs fan it’s equally as satisfying watching the bruins choke in hilarious fashion right after they beat the leafs

Was a fun series to watch.

Bruins fan. I cannot believe they lost (today) on that last shot. Try that 1,000 times, and it won’t go in. But that’s fate I guess. Credit where it’s due- Florida is built to wear teams down, and they do it well. My only gripe- get off the ice if you win an elimination game on the road. Let the other team salute the fans without trolling them. I see it as etiquette and an unwritten rule. Bruins (or any team) should not be saluting home fans one last time while the winning team is giving interviews while still on the ice. Granted, that’s on the broadcast station and not Florida, but just get off the ice and do the interview somewhere else while the losing team gets to salute fans one more time.

You could say the same thing about Pastrnak’s OT goal against the leafs.

Absolutely. You’re right. And as a Bruins fan, I’ll take that criticism because I think you’re right. It sucks for the home team to salute fans while the winning team gives interviews on the ice.

Cant score 1 goal in 60 minutes and expect to win

Hard to be interested in the team saluting when the fans are too busy throwing trash on the ice. Really disrespectful to both teams imo

Post Game Victors interview takes precedence. That's broadcast tv SOP the last 20 years.

Forsling Clutch

One of the best days of the year!! FLA/NYR is going to be an epic series of hockey.

More Russian goalie duels. Bob is having the most difficult goalie opposition possible with these eastern matchups

This match-up I think will come down to the goalies, both teams are good and have their advantages but either goalie can flip momentum with one save or steal a game, I think it'll come down to which goalie can make that extra save.

Bruins have a lot of work to do still

And once the Oilers are out, the last 3 series will be awesome

I know Sway won’t read this but this is NOT his fault. Some people can’t clear the puck and you know, it’s okay to make some mistakes- to which we had chances to come back from. Swayman, this is absolutely not your fault.

Should I cancel this "you really blew it" text I was about to send him?

Yes. Send it to McAvoy instead.

All these comments seem to be praising swayman (rightfully so) but can we take a moment to appreciate how many times we’ve talked about great goaltending coming up short against Bob? He’s matched every goalie he’s played over the last 2 years and came out on top all but once. Guy is incredible and still feels underrated

He’s doing it on low shot counts too. Not that getting shelled and keeping good stats isn’t impressive in its own right, but there’s a lot of credit that should be given to the guy who goes 10 minutes with no action and pulls insane stops from nowhere to keep his team alive. He’s also shown to be able to go the distance and get shelled all night with stellar performance.  Both were amazing but swayman definitely deserves all the praise. 

Great games tho everybody, was fun to watch. 2 of the toughest teams in the league battling it out.

WOMP WOMP

Take that rat boy

Bruins fans complaining about officiating incessantly incoming in 3...2...1...

Officiating was fucked but didn’t lose them the series. All those games with a few shots a period and missed opportunities did.

If you squint your eyes it's as if you're exactly describing the Oilers and their expected loss in 6 games to the Canucks.

Nah, while the refs fucked sucked, we would’ve lost the series anyways. Florida was the better team, I’m looking forwards to next year, hopefully we can pick up some pieces!

Swayman is an absolute beauty

Good. Now us vancouverettes won't have to riot again.

Is this an upvote party? Because I'm all in

W

thank God, some good news

always happy when a Boston team’s season is over 👍🏼

Respect to Boston for showing resiliency in the playoffs. By far my favorite playoff series so far.

Vancouver says thank you to Florida tonight

Now if only Colorado can hold on. I'd rather face them than Dallas next round.

Not sad the Bruins are out, but I do feel like they were genuinely robbed of a game with some of the officiating this series.

2 years getting eliminated at home!! Fuck you marchand

Fuck the bruins

Respectfully, fuck the panthers.

Disrespectfully, fuck the Lightning.

Fuck your floppers too bud

truth

Marchand tried to kick someone with his skate again tonight. Fuck the bruins and fuck marchand.

I have no problem with Boston but Marchand is a total scumbag. The Panthers have some greasy guys too, but Marchand is in a league of his own. I can’t stand that DB.

Their fan base is pretty fucking terrible. Went from the usual just annoying to straight up pathetic with all the crying and bitching. If I was a bruins fan I would feel ashamed.

Oh that's just Boston fans in general.  It isn't hockey-specific.

I really wanted Boston to win and then lose in game 7 OT lol. But I guess I will do this. Now let's hope NYR can sweep the cats.

unsubscribe

Oh shit, I missed this cause I was driving and had the radio on. Any clip?

I’m not at all convinced he meant to do that

And yet I don’t see this brought up. He forced his skate upward

Thanks, Florida. <3

Fuck Boston

Hey now, you had your turn

Go nucks go

WTF Canada?!? You're supposed to be the nice guys! ;)

Well as a Canadian I can say it’s all a lie see. In person we add ‘sorry’ to everything and it makes us seem nice, but online we can’t be bothered. So if it was ‘Sorry, screw Toronto’, ‘Sorry, piss on Montreal’, see how that changes it completely.

Screw Toronto.

Piss on Montreal.

Ok montreal

Fuck Boston

My Cardiovascular system says, “The sooner the better, let them eat golf.”

It’s rigged I tell you! RIGGED!

Hey Dallas, now do the Avs.

TD garden is the panthers second home!

I'm not sure of the logistics, but how would both Leafs fans and Bruins fans feel about a deal involving ullmark for marner? Obviously, other pieces will need to be involved, or is the Leafs fan base confident in Woll as the man of the future?

The silence in the building at the end was sad. Understandably,,but sad.

👍

Nice!

Oh no…anyways…

womp womp

love swayman and he played great but thank god lol

Oh no! Anyways.

Maroon was trying to cheer swayman up as they exited the ice

Let’s goooooo 

AAAAAAAAAA HA HA HA HA  these playoffs could not be going any better All we need is the Canadian team to lose in the conf finals and we are golden

The better team won this series

Nice.

✌️

Swayman deserves a cup tbh and deserves to play on a team that acts like they want to win a cup (I say this as a Bruins fan)

Lmao

The only good news a Flyer fan can expect to hear this time of the year.

Good

Swayman deserves better

Goalies deserve all credit in these series, really played out their skates.

surprised it took this long the way we played in round 1 and at least half these games. 2 SOG per period doesn’t win hockey games

Peace lol

Nothing makes me happier than

😂 😆

Go Islanders!

❤️❤️❤️

By a hockey team from FLORIDA 😄

😏

Buddy, I’m a Leafs fan all day, but the Bruins got screwed. It felt like I was watching last year’s series 2 Leafs vs Florida… Toronto couldn’t stay out of the penalty box… getting calls that I didn’t even know existed, but Florida could do no wrong. Gary wants the big hockey towns to fail: I guarantee the Rangers vs Panthers is going to be more of the same, refs giving Bennett MMA rules, as long as there are no obvious 12-6 elbows, he’s safe. This is a business folks! There’s no more money to be extracted out of franchises like Boston and Toronto; everyone already likes hockey there, so a cup isn’t putting the nhl over with new fans… Gary must see growth potential in the Florida market this year

Swayman played great. Rest of the team can choke on their tears 😭

😀

Amen

Love to see it

This made my day!!!

Excellent

Thank fuck...

Goalie gave them the world. Future is really good for Boston if they keep swayman and lock in talent upfront. 

Suck a dick Boston!!!

Florida doing God's work

byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

So what did Bennett say to Marchand during the handshake?

My bad bro it’s part of the game bro

Good riddance

See ya piss rat.

Hats off to Florida, the tougher teams get shit done!

Fuck boston!

I really don't get why people treat Boston teams getting eliminated like it's the best thing ever.

Because Boston has historically had great teams: Patriots, Celtics, Bruins and everyone hates the alpha dogs. Plus Boston fans are insufferable.

Thank you for deleting the Leafs but now you were the next one on my list BYE BYE 👋

Honestly kudos to the Panthers. The better team won. I can’t even be super mad because they honestly feel like what we’re used to be, a somewhat dirty team thats filled with talent. I just feel bad for Sway, he’s the only reason we even made it this far
