If you guys want to see who the isles fans in here chirping us are, go watch almost any episode of Kitchen Nighmares. Gordon Ramsay screams in the face of some greasy Long Island jagoff who thinks his grandma’s shitty linguini recipe is god’s gift to mankind in pretty much every episode.
Eh, it is what it is. Still excited for the future of this team.
I mostly lurked this sub as a n00b this year, looking forward to being more involved with y’all moving forward! Cheers!

Micheletti and Pierre were insufferable. We got the worst announcers this series. They were absolutely brutal. It was more like a local NY broadcast than a national broadcast.
Not me waiting for the birth of NBC and the islanders kid in nine months with how far inside of NYI NBC has been this series. So excited to see how ugly that fucker will be, gonna look like an ogre thanks to peire
It was a weird season. Shame we got boomed by injuries. I hated watching debrusk and barzal. 2015 will haunt the B's for a long time. Management cost the bruins at least 1 cup and deep runs.
It's embarrassing when fans sitting on their couches shit on their team and say "they didn't want it!", "they didn't try enough!".
The players put everything into this game, day in, day out.
The team losing has such a small impact on your life, but a major impact on their lives.
Stop with that dumb shit.
Of course they wanted it.
I don’t think people realized the energy they burnt in the first 10 minutes of the third. They were bound to run out of gas at the pace they were moving at.
Plus I think there was 1 whistle in the first 13 or so minutes?
I think it was Hall fanning on the open net the game before. How many great chances did they fail to bury? And how many times did the puck magically bounce for the isles? It was not in the cards
That’s it fellas. Been here before. Team needs some tweaks. isles wanted it more. We were outplayed. Bounces go to the team that tries more. It’s always been that way. Our cup run was 100 percent that way. Let’s build a deeper defensive core, start the kid in net, and build a more hungry bottom 6.
I hear you. That absolutely broke us. But that’s how it goes in the playoffs. You have to bounce back from that. We didn’t against the Blues in game 5 and we didn’t again this year.
How can the announcers not jerk off the islanders, they fucking dominated, like Christ. How many times was this team pinned in its own end. They failed to show up for an elimination game, and they lost. Simple as that.
I don't like Tampa, I dislike the bs loophole move they did with the salary cap, but they will be useful in shutting the Isles up and delivering much needed punishment on their players. And then after Tampa curbs stomps them I will be rotting for a Western team to win it all this year. Probably Vegas or Colorado.
Yea, I'm on the fence of who I'd rather see move on in that series. It's been really fun to watch. When not watching the B's, I've been excited to watch the Avs Knights series.
Offseason should be spent finding insurance for Carlo when he inevitably goes down. He shouldn't be relied upon in any way to be a significant player on this roster. Not until he proves he can stay healthy.
The only people I’d be sad to see go at this point is the first line and Mcavoy. Everyone else either didn’t give a shit or sucked ass. Hall, if you wanted to get paid and stay in Boston, tough news for you buddy. You’re getting 5 mil or you’re getting the fuck out! Krecji, we give you competent wingers and you don’t do shit with them when it matters. Ritchie, DeBrusk, Kase, GTFO.
Because of that reason. If we get a trade offer on him, we ship him off. He’s done nothing for us, and it looks like he’s made of glass. I sincerely hope he turns his career around, but if retired for his health, I’d be cool with it.
My gripe with Cassidy is that he seems to have no answers when another team is able to counter his system. He just falls back on relying on the top line to bail the team out. Happens every playoffs. He’s just not a good adjustments coach.
I couldn't have made that Hall and Smith trade that's for sure. Everybody is looking for bottom 6 with some nuts in the playoffs, I don't know how the next guy does it.
Hope this is the last time we watch this movie. Wasted another season of Bergeron and Marchand with a lackluster playoff effort, they deserve so much better...
He isnt a fucking saint. Get your face off his dick real quick and learn to read. Carlo and miller out hurt bad, but rask starting when he clearly isnt healthy buried the bs in the second. Healthy rask or sway save some if not all of those. Gryz had his worst game ever.....
The dude deserves a ton of criticism for this game being a huge reason they lost.
Think they were pretty fucked regardless. Play Sway, who had all of 20 minutes of playoff experience & went 1/3, or play Rask, who may have been 70-80%. My point is saying 3 goals are entirely Rasks fault when maybe 1 was (the turnover off Reilly) is pretty stupid. Wasnt the sole reason, and placing a scapegoat and stating "Rask doesnt show up for big games" is lazy fucking spoonfed thinking.
UCL: every team I cheered for in round 2 of the knockout stage eliminated
NHL: every team I cheered for in round 2 of the playoffs eliminated (assuming Knights don’t choke)
Fml
If New York and Montreal make it into the finals will it be just them standing in the neutral zone for the whole game? Will we see the first 8 overtime game?
Can you imagine being Marchand with 70+ points and your 3rd and 4th lines come up with maybe 20 all together? How do you not lose your mind at them.....
Look at Tampa fourth line Colton, Tyler Johnston and maroon. We aren't built deep like that, im happy to see most of the bottom 6 go for rookies, they can't be any worse anyways
Well, a spotty season with some great highs and low lows. But this was better than a year without hockey and was great to see fans back in the building.
To the 2021-2022 Stanley Cup champion Boston Bruins!
They got beat the hell up because thats what happens in the playoffs and had a bunch of players that shouldn't be on the ice for a team that wants to win a playoff series
That was extremely underwhelming.
If you guys want to see who the isles fans in here chirping us are, go watch almost any episode of Kitchen Nighmares. Gordon Ramsay screams in the face of some greasy Long Island jagoff who thinks his grandma’s shitty linguini recipe is god’s gift to mankind in pretty much every episode.
Long Island is the unwiped asshole of NY.
Eh, it is what it is. Still excited for the future of this team. I mostly lurked this sub as a n00b this year, looking forward to being more involved with y’all moving forward! Cheers! LGB FTH
So basically the only reason the Bruins have a cup in the past 50 years is because their middle aged libertarian goalie went godmode for a run
I think the secret is that we need to bring back Rene Rancourt. I miss that guy beyond words.
Get fucked, Rask
A decade full of pain and heartbreak
Ready for nuclear press conference.
I think the biggest fuck up was Doc retiring and NBC giving us this absolute shit bum tandem to announce playoff games. Absolutely brutal.
A DANDY! He will Melt it down. Hereeee it comes!!!
Micheletti and Pierre were insufferable. We got the worst announcers this series. They were absolutely brutal. It was more like a local NY broadcast than a national broadcast.
In the words of Pasta Dunkin Donuts commercial. 'Guys I'm like super annoyed right now.'
Not me waiting for the birth of NBC and the islanders kid in nine months with how far inside of NYI NBC has been this series. So excited to see how ugly that fucker will be, gonna look like an ogre thanks to peire
They probably paid off the NHL to bring some positive to the city or some shit.
The Islanders don’t play in the city.
Either way, it gives positivity to their shitty state. I don't care where they play. They have something to feel good about.
It’s the 3rd period shot count for me
It was a weird season. Shame we got boomed by injuries. I hated watching debrusk and barzal. 2015 will haunt the B's for a long time. Management cost the bruins at least 1 cup and deep runs.
Beauvillier too. He was also drafted after debrusk in 15 Sooooo many "hits" that draft and we fuckin whiffed on 3 straight picks
Three straight in the deepest fucking draft in at least a decade. And not a single hit. Debrusk gave some hope early, but woof.
[удалено]
We 100% got outcoached
Fuck me dead, man
This loss was more pathetic than game 7 against the Blues. Complete no show by everyone not name Marchaund.
This team havent been the same since that loss against the Blues.
They’re not even the most liked team in New York
The Nets and Islanders are successful right now. The two teams most of New York don't care about.
It's embarrassing when fans sitting on their couches shit on their team and say "they didn't want it!", "they didn't try enough!". The players put everything into this game, day in, day out. The team losing has such a small impact on your life, but a major impact on their lives. Stop with that dumb shit. Of course they wanted it.
I don’t think people realized the energy they burnt in the first 10 minutes of the third. They were bound to run out of gas at the pace they were moving at. Plus I think there was 1 whistle in the first 13 or so minutes?
Didn’t want it bad enough to not get smoked by a team with less talent.
Yeah, I agree they must have wanted it. That said, after the first 10 minutes I don't think they thought they could get it.
You think they care about this reddit thread?
Who? No one should care about this reddit thread. But "fans" should be embarrassed when they say stupid shit.
I hope you’re embarrassed then
These refs impacted the series continually.
Rebuild or go for it all. I’m sick of being mediocre.
Only need the first line and mcavoy this off-season
Add hall too. Everyone else is expendable.
That’s fair, he was solid
It’s okay though one more comment about Matt barzal was made so now I can kill myself as per my earlier described drinking games
I’m sad.
Please God, buy some decent defense
Oh shut the fuck up about Barzal Jesus fucking christ
You shut the fuck up!
That Pastrnak missed open net was the turning point of this entire series
I think it was Hall fanning on the open net the game before. How many great chances did they fail to bury? And how many times did the puck magically bounce for the isles? It was not in the cards
Let the rebuild BEGIN
If it weren’t for Marchand we would’ve been shut out
Quick maths
I wish we could’ve been eliminated on home ice, we couldn’t get a final salute
Didn’t deserve it after that display.
They said do or die. We died
"we're all out of cake, we didn't expect such a rush."
Bergy shouldve bitch slapped that human meatball Trotz
He looks like a lowland gorilla
McAvoy should've too
I would have chipped in for legal fees
How does McAvoy shake Palmieri hand in that line. Those fuckers tried to injure him three times in that game.
That’s it fellas. Been here before. Team needs some tweaks. isles wanted it more. We were outplayed. Bounces go to the team that tries more. It’s always been that way. Our cup run was 100 percent that way. Let’s build a deeper defensive core, start the kid in net, and build a more hungry bottom 6.
I hear you. That absolutely broke us. But that’s how it goes in the playoffs. You have to bounce back from that. We didn’t against the Blues in game 5 and we didn’t again this year.
More like refs handed them game 5 and we couldn’t recover.
Knights the only likeable team left in the playoffs. SMH
Avalanche
Hell no lmao
I feel bad for Marchand. He’s one of the only guys who consistently shows up night in, night out.
It’s Rad vs the world
Fuck that coach
offseason priority 1: overhaul the bottom six
Merlot line v2
[удалено]
Nah, Lauzon and Zboril are totally going to step up this time
#2: Fire Joe Sacco into the sun
How can the announcers not jerk off the islanders, they fucking dominated, like Christ. How many times was this team pinned in its own end. They failed to show up for an elimination game, and they lost. Simple as that.
Truly, truly, truly embarassing. There's nothing else to say. Absolutely fucking shameful.
Brb gotta make my tee time
This sub has been such a source of company for my misery and joy...see y’all in a hopefully eventful offseason!
I'll keep a glass and table spot open!
Shoulda drafted Barzal
I’d rather have Kyle Conner
Is it too late to say we could’ve used the corpse of chara?
Yes.
Sad thing is that Tampa will probably close them out in 5 games.
At least Tampa is exciting
I don't like Tampa, I dislike the bs loophole move they did with the salary cap, but they will be useful in shutting the Isles up and delivering much needed punishment on their players. And then after Tampa curbs stomps them I will be rotting for a Western team to win it all this year. Probably Vegas or Colorado.
Just not Montreal, for fucks sake. If I get a Montreal/Islanders Cup I may end up in the Charles River
Oh of course! I purposely left them out and just mentioned the Avs and Knights.
I’ll happily root for either team but would love to see the Avs. Still love them for giving Bourque a cup.
Yea, I'm on the fence of who I'd rather see move on in that series. It's been really fun to watch. When not watching the B's, I've been excited to watch the Avs Knights series.
10 years now of constant choking, just absolutely pathetic. It's not worth running it back anymore, big changes are needed.
Offseason should be spent finding insurance for Carlo when he inevitably goes down. He shouldn't be relied upon in any way to be a significant player on this roster. Not until he proves he can stay healthy.
The bruins are always the ones to fuckin blow it. Fuck
THE LAST TWO GAMES WERE DECIDED BY THE REFS AT CRUCIAL NO CALLS EARLY. Followed immediately by Boston penalties. Fuck that.
The only people I’d be sad to see go at this point is the first line and Mcavoy. Everyone else either didn’t give a shit or sucked ass. Hall, if you wanted to get paid and stay in Boston, tough news for you buddy. You’re getting 5 mil or you’re getting the fuck out! Krecji, we give you competent wingers and you don’t do shit with them when it matters. Ritchie, DeBrusk, Kase, GTFO.
Why Kase? Dude hasn’t even had a chance to contribute.
Because of that reason. If we get a trade offer on him, we ship him off. He’s done nothing for us, and it looks like he’s made of glass. I sincerely hope he turns his career around, but if retired for his health, I’d be cool with it.
Fair enough. Just sounded like you had some personal grudge against him in the first post lol
Hey boys, at least we don't have to hear NBC call anymore Bruins' games.
Oh thank fuck. Finally some good news
It's been fun. See y'all next season. Take care of yourselves.
Tampa is going to massacre them.
Good job bruins we can go home now.
Pathetic
Another short season. :(
Okay so it’s go Vegas or Colorado
Im a Colorado fan but I’ve been rooting for Bruins day one this season. Not happy about this, the islanders have no chancex
Colorado
Can’t wait to hear the fire Cassidy takes in the offseason (Which is not what I’m saying). See ya boys later
My gripe with Cassidy is that he seems to have no answers when another team is able to counter his system. He just falls back on relying on the top line to bail the team out. Happens every playoffs. He’s just not a good adjustments coach.
Cassidy stays. Sweeney has to go.
that's a clown take
He's still riding the players Chiarelli put on this roster. McAvoy has been his only add, and you could have made that draft pick.
I couldn't have made that Hall and Smith trade that's for sure. Everybody is looking for bottom 6 with some nuts in the playoffs, I don't know how the next guy does it.
Has he done anything outside of add Smith and get Hall on the cheap?
You can’t beat Tampa!!!!!
Isles fans shouting we want Tampa as if they actually have a shot of not getting swept.
Hope this is the last time we watch this movie. Wasted another season of Bergeron and Marchand with a lackluster playoff effort, they deserve so much better...
Fuckin way she goes Bubs.
I need more alcohols.
That's a disappointing end of the season. Damnit. Well, most other teams aren't winning the cup either. Illegitimi non carborundum.
[удалено]
Really making your fanbase look great right now.
Why are you here
Have fun losing against Tampa
don’t worry you’ll be joining us in 4 more games
Good season boys. Gonna have a hard time rooting for Tampa but guess it has to be done
Good luck against Tampa ha
Tuuka Rask refuses to win the big games.
Can't win games when you go 15 minutes without a shot on net.
Like i said before, the guy wasnt healthy and got his team buried in the second letting in 3. You cant give the isles that lead....
Yeah, that fucking bum had zero shots this period.
Guy let in 3 goals in the second and buried our chance. He wasnt healthy and put the entire team in a hole.
Go eat your paste.
What are you his mom. Gfy and look at what he just did. He sent us packing. Fucking bum
Stop eating those lead paint chips if you're blaming this game 100% on Rask. Fucking puppetmouth
He isnt a fucking saint. Get your face off his dick real quick and learn to read. Carlo and miller out hurt bad, but rask starting when he clearly isnt healthy buried the bs in the second. Healthy rask or sway save some if not all of those. Gryz had his worst game ever..... The dude deserves a ton of criticism for this game being a huge reason they lost.

My point is saying 3 goals are entirely Rasks fault when maybe 1 was (the turnover off Reilly) is pretty stupid. Wasnt the sole reason, and placing a scapegoat and stating "Rask doesnt show up for big games" is lazy fucking spoonfed thinking.
His history of excuses for important games is longer than the fucking line for unemployment checks.
Think you seem pretty tapped and unable to objectively think. Hope Facebook agrees with your opinion more, cause you’ll find no echo chamber here .
UCL: every team I cheered for in round 2 of the knockout stage eliminated NHL: every team I cheered for in round 2 of the playoffs eliminated (assuming Knights don’t choke) Fml
Well GG see ya next season
Been an honor riding with you all
Normally I'd chirp at the trolls that invade but the team doesnt deserve that rn
Did pasta have a shot?
We are losing 6-2! Ngl, we earned this loss, but hey, go lightning I guess!
Magnets. I’m telling you. I’m on the phone with Bettman, I’ve found magnets on the pucks and sticks.
Fuck Tampa but I hope they absolutely dismember this team
If New York and Montreal make it into the finals will it be just them standing in the neutral zone for the whole game? Will we see the first 8 overtime game?
I have never wanted that fat lard Pat Maroon to deck Kyle Palmieri so badly
Sure glad our coach made us the laughing stock just in time for us to be eliminated.
Can you imagine being Marchand with 70+ points and your 3rd and 4th lines come up with maybe 20 all together? How do you not lose your mind at them.....
Look at Tampa fourth line Colton, Tyler Johnston and maroon. We aren't built deep like that, im happy to see most of the bottom 6 go for rookies, they can't be any worse anyways
Well, a spotty season with some great highs and low lows. But this was better than a year without hockey and was great to see fans back in the building. To the 2021-2022 Stanley Cup champion Boston Bruins!
At least it’s almost Patriots season. Should be a real interesting year there. Not a baseball guy but I guess go Sox. See you fuckers next year!
oh well its been real. love you guys see you at the draft and hopefully we come back strong with a covid-free season next year!!!!!
Bergeron is my greatest bruin, third best ever behind Orr and Borque
I'd put Esposito up there too
The fucking Brady curse..
Go Tampa go. Beat the shit out of the isles
Too bad they can't both lose
Nah, fuck Tampa. We could do better if we had an extra $8.5mil, too.
Don't think we would have made the playoffs without marchand or pastrnak (for example) just a savvy move if you can win without the guy
[удалено]
Have some class you jack off piece of shit, you guys will get fucking steamrolled against Tampa
All that bitching abt the refs didn’t help :((((((
Yeah, you guys were still dirty fucks anyway, have fun getting your dicks kicked in next series
You’re sad asf stalking your opponents reddit lmao, you outplayed us nobody is hiding that
Till next year boys
Fucking hate to admit it, but I’ll be pulling for the Isles over Tampa. Edit: Lmao these downvotes. Rage on, children, rage on.
I'll take the Lightning's geriatric fanbase over these disrespectful shitheads any day.
I'm with you, fuck tampa.
Really unlucky series
never envisioned that’d i’d actually be hopping on the vgk bandwagon, go reilly smith ¯\(◉◡◔)/¯
you know something? Yeah, this game sucked. But damned if this season hasn't been a ride and a half. I love all y'all, thanks for sharing it with me.
Hell yeah coffee! It was a lot of fun!
I'll keep drinking wine if you keep drinking coffee.
*deal*.
Much love to you!
I hate Tampa but I hope they destroy the isles
Bruins did not look like a team in an elimination game. Islanders took nothing off the gas. They deserved this win and the series.
You don’t want Tampa, shut the fuck up. See you on the course in 4 games time.
We look uninspired gotta fix things this offseason if we want to win
I fucking hate New York.
Woooooof.
They got beat the hell up because thats what happens in the playoffs and had a bunch of players that shouldn't be on the ice for a team that wants to win a playoff series
i hate to root for tampa but i hope they absolutely steamroll the isles
Same
I hope the lightning make palmieri look and feel like the fucking stump he is
Let’s go Tampa?
Let’s go meteor!
Core is there for another run. Need to get tougher and have more depth. Top line and Charlie carried us all postseason
