It's great seeing people blame Swayman for the Bruins losing, it shows just how many people don't get the game.
Bruins only won the two games Marchand was “hurt” I think it’s time for that little rat to retire.
@@ninetysnano6071So you're one of them, you say?
@@laughingbeast4481 I know you’re still emotional from last nights loss. Let it all out baby girl!
@@ninetysnano6071 Of course I am emotional , Carolina's out way too soon again ! Damn! Not sure if this team got it in them anymore...
Swayman gets outshot 4 to 1 on average. He definitely doesn’t deserve the blame. I also feel bad for Carolina. They outshot the Rangers on average 4 to 1 as well but Igor Shesterkin just bails them out time and time again. Then in overtime a lucky bounce here and there and all of a sudden you get to move on.
Swayman gave the Bruins every chance to win. Hard to win a series when the team in front isn't giving him goal support. I'm furthest from a Bruin fan, but you can't hang this on Sway
While you could blame the Bruins players for not helping Swayman out games 2-4, I can’t say you can blame them for this one. They died, went to hell, and came back to try and win this game for Swayman.
That first goal by Lundell; dude took a hard shot that brought him down and Florida just happened to be in perfect position to take advantage, that second goal… idk what do you even say about that second goal? I’m looking for the comment section to help me how to describe that shot from Forsling
@@TrueMr.Quinn1 Sway had 2 bodies infront. Forsling shot that between the legs of the defender and found a tiny hole. Maybe Sway should have hugged that post, but he couldn't track the shooter because his line of sight was blocked. It's a bit of a lucky goal. But in the playoffs, every shot has the potential to be a backbreaker.
Tough series for Boston. They played 7 against the Leafs. Florida was waiting after 5
@@my3ung yeah, you’re right, from a technical standpoint that is what happened point for point, but doesn’t make it less mind boggling, and especially when you saw it in real time. I’m truly flabbergasted by it
@@TrueMr.Quinn1 yah, real time reminds you how remarkable this game is. So damn fast.
Similar to the Marchand/Bennet hit. Real time it looked harmless. Replay it was so obvious
No indeed. They lost 6 straight to FLA at home in the postseason. That's not the tender.
Going 1-6 at home in the past 2 series vs Florida is staggering.
Game 1 and 7 in round one
@@Serberus08 my comment was about their record specifically vs Florida the past 2 postseasons. Round 1 was against the Leafs.
@@Serberus08reading is hard
There is a message in the bottle.
@@bloodycrepe It is through these tears of joy. SO glad that the clearly better team won.
As a panthers fan I will say Swayman was amazing that series we had so many scoring opportunities but swayman was out of his mind and was making great saves
It was great. I was rooting for Florida, but I give both goalies the best credit it was amazing series. Both teams were so even and they fought so hard to the end.
@@markbrady2019 These teams are far from even. The Bruins lack scoring and centre depth. They have 4 third lines.
Yeah I was coming here to say as a Panther fan Swayman made a fan out of me. On top of what you said it was also the swagger, chirping, and general enjoyment he had this series while being able to back it all up with good gameplay. A good character to have in your sport
Funny how nobody around blames bruins offence.
@@pingwin4076
I do....and I'm a Massachusetts born player and fan. Dismal breakout efforts, stumbling with the puck. Missed passes, giveaways. Swayman carried our Bruins. Well......guess it's on to the Sox. I'm not quite there for rooting for the panthers, but as a Boston boy, I can't stand anything new york.Good luck.
That wasnt Swaymans fault, Forsling even shot that puck without looking at the net + thru the defencemens legs
Id argue tho that the blocker save leading to the goal was poor rebound control
Panthers fan here. I agree with @j.cashdro forsling had no real thought of putting it in net, just toss it in front.
He's scored that exact kinda goal earlier in the yr as well so he's been known to do that time to time
Oh gawd c'mon this narrative is so dumb. Swayman is the reason you got this far and to let in a goal like this? Yeah that's not on him. The Bruins leaned on a hot goalie until that flame got snuffed out for just a brief moment. The rest of the team wasn't pulling their weight constantly this series and you can't fault Swayman for not being inhuman.
@@aaronsmith1474 trust me, im a goalie who will always side with them, i agree that he played good that game, great in the series, and great in the playoffs...
objectively tho it was a shot that should be saved. And id argue a shot that shouldnt ever happen if the initial shot was better controlled avoiding that rebound.
It wasn't Swaymans fault. Sometimes life just gives you a middle finger.

@@FOGNLnetwork No, Yuck Fou.
@@tacitus6384 Tell your fans that throwing stuff on the ice is something dumb goons do!!
@@GVH1305 How about I tell you to stfu and get over it?
Anyone who wants to blame Sway, no. Sway was the best player in the playoffs thus far. His team was mediocre at best in front of him. Bruins had no chance vs Florida
If they had "no chance", then why did they win multiple games, and blow them out the first game 5-1? It was definitely closer than you give it credit for.
@@leeham6230they blew them out 5-1 because the panthers hadn’t played in a week. Next game they blew the b’s out and it was close games from there on, panthers were def favored this entire series though
Exactly. I mean the lowly Leafs took them to game 7 OT
@@ilbah7451 Captain obvious over here
I can blame sway though. ELITE GOALIES DONT LET IN WEAK TRASH LIKE THAT ESPECIALLY AS A SERIES CLINCHER
As a Rangers fan I was pissed the Bruins couldn't get this done. We haven't seen the Bruins in the post in years. That original 6 rivalry would of been kick ass
For real, and as a bruins i can confidently say.....im not shocked lmao been years now of their shit post season play hot and cold doesnt win games. Oh well they can practice shooting at the golf course i guess
@stunningandbrave3527 yeah man this blows. One of my best Army buddies is a Mass state trooper, and the shit talking between us would of been Jedi level.
I appreciate you wanting to see the Bruins. If I was a Rangers fan, I'd be hoping and praying to face the Bruins too. It would be a virtual free ticket to the next round!
@shug2795 I understand what you're saying, it's been off and on for the Bruins these last couple of years. But I didn't want to start talking smack before the puck was even dropped. I respect the hell out the Bruins and what they've done over the decade
The city of Boston owes Swayman an apology.
Maybe if the refs give the city of boston an apology first.
@lime7494 Yeah the NHL hates Boston 🥴
@@lime7494for the way they behaved during handshake, they don’t deserve an apology lol zero class
@@ericcoderre9986wdym
Why would we owe sway an apology? Pasta owes Sway an apology for being a ghost. Bruins fans absolutely know this wasnt his fault.
Sway carried this team on his shoulders. We need more goals next year.
If there is a next year
Both teams have tried so hard to score goals, but the playoffs have a different format. The goalies and defenses are played very tight; both want to win. However, one has to go. It is so hard to swallow!!! It was a great series!
Two games with six goals allowed is carrying the team?
That is a definite glare, I've been on the receiving end of that in years gone by.
Stay at home Dman bros get in here.
Same here, but she hasn't asked for a divorce yet. ;)
Don’t throw stuff on the ice!!
Carter Verheaghe man, i don't know why he's never quoted immediately amongst the very top players of the NHL but the number of clutch goals & assists he puts out during the season and at key playoffs moments like that is truly something to behold.
That sneaky poke-check pass just after a shot to where Barkov is gonna be, poking amongst 3 Bruins with 2 of them with their sticks already on the puck or so so close to max out the pressure that is every bit as impressive and skilful to me than whatever speedy deke a McDavid can pull off. Some would brush this off saying "oh he's just lucky there" but that's the thing with Carter, have a serious look at his game guys it's never ever just pure luck, it's a constant creation of chances and a mastery of those seemingly insignificant details that are in fact so so hard to control at that level & speed and so often make it work. That's what separates him from so many average players, from almost all of them actually. Carter "clutch" Verheaghe.
Also thank you Johnny for all that superb content, and for cutting slack on Swayman. That's a fine analysis. Sorry for him it had to be that way rather than in a goalless situation. Swayman was fantastic in those playoffs. I have him and Freddie Andersen as the two who pulled off the most impressive saves, and overall games, of these first 2 rounds.
I'll never get over the fact the Lightning didn't keep Verhaeghe and Marchessau (literally the 2nd coming of Martin St Louis). Trade away any big contract to make it happen, I don't care, just not Kuch though. And that Foresling guy? Forget the goal, his body of work has been tremendous. Oh man that goal though...
Cats fan here, and swayman was unbelievable . We made more opportunities plain and simple
@@malcolmapplet4313 I'm actually VERY happy with the way things turned out regarding Verhaeghe and Marchessau.
- TB couldn't realistically give them the roles they now fill for FL and Vegas, respectively. At Center we had - Point, Cirelli, Coleman, Gourde (C/W), Johnson, and Colton.
-What if... Marty wasn't bought out and released by the Flames. What if CBJ or MIN pick him in the 2000 Expansion draft. TB turned out to be what Marty needed to succeed at that time. There is no guarantee Verhaeghe or Marchessau capitalize on, let alone see any real opportunity had they remained here.
- Success... From '15-'22
-20 Series victories
-6 Conference final appearances in 8 years
-4 Cup Final appearances
-2 Cup Wins
Carter loves 3rd peroid and clutch moments. He is nicknamed mr.playoffs for a reason :D
Man I feel for Swayman, he definitely was heartbroken by the fact that he was not only screened but just wasn’t covering the post.
Swayman was great in net in both series. Beating him was like mission impossible. Swayman without question was Bruins MVP.
anyone blaming Swayman is a total idiot. He’s the main reason this series was competitive.
You’re right that Swayman kept them in it. But Swayman has a history of not sealing the post blocker side. Lundell’s goal in game 4 is an example. Even going back to last year’s playoffs, that’s the same kind of goal Florida tied it with their net empty. He’s gotta fix that.
@@busfeet2080what goalie played better thrn swayman in play offs. He's the only reason the bs had any chance
Swayman was great. But looking forward to seeing the cats play the rangers. They need to bring the third period intensity every period.
What a year for a rebuilding Bruins team. I can't wait to see what they do this off-season with a ton of cap space!!!
You think that’s painful… Avs lost in 2OT to their former superstar
Silver lining... At least they didn't lose to a zamboni driver that works for them...
Marchand having a rough time meeting his tormentor…..but he can serve it up. Cry me a river.
i dont thnk marchand wasa poor sport
he talked to him
and bennett hit him with a sucker punch that was quite dangerous
love marchand
no problem with either player
КРЫСА ПЛАЧЕТ.везде в обзорах его физия.Второй сезон коричневые наступают на те же грабли сила напор схема.одно минус и тормоз
Marchy is fine. He knows his squad simply was not good enough.
Sorry, but that's a pretty bad take. Marchand was class this series. He never blamed Bennett or the refs, said all the right things, and had a good exchange with Bennett in the handshake line. The guy has grown a lot over the years, and acted like a captain this series. Only casual hockey fans haven't noticed his maturity as a player these last few years.
let the old brad marchand go already 💀
I cant blame swayman. Guy did all he could. The bruins couldn't generate shit after game 1. Can't win games generating 12 shots on goal a game
AS much as it pains me to say it , the future is looking pretty good in Boston . Stud goalie , decent forwards and decent defense . Finding the right players to fit the playstyle of Boston will be the hardest part . IF nothing else , if they continue to make the playoffs and face The Leafs in the first round , they'll have a good laugh at least .
They just need a few top six players and they’re top 5 in the league easily
Yeah, help is coming in the 2024 draft- they're picking at the bottom end of the 4th, 5th and 6th rounds this year! They need to pay Swayman and have a leftover team that didn't like the "tough coach" who went on and won one in LAS. Be sure they'll be patching for next season to get that playoff revenues. Hopefully they can leverage those ties to get in.
@@SomeOne-uy4kj what? The last thing they need right now are 18 yr old prospects
It’s win now mode
Bruins are looking like they will be next red wings in couple years
@@frankhall9483 wdym by that?
They have the most cap space I think in the offseason of any competitive team and the only holes they have is in the top six defense is already signed they just need to sign swayman and after that they’ll probably have round 13-14 million to work with assuming they don’t trade away Ullmark
Pentaly calls: 34-Bruins 4-Panthers
This is false
Bruins didn’t just lose Bergeron and Kreijci. They lost Hall and Foligno as well.
Crazy the bruins made it this far this year with this roster… grab lindholm and a solid wing, def trade ullmark and go deep next year!
get rid of their captain. he is why everyone hates them. good riddance to the leagues biggest cheaters
@@pinpointism nah, people hate Boston cuz we’ve won a lot… people hate the panthers cuz they’re cheap shot artists and most annoying fan base.
@@pinpointism Only casual fans like yourself think Marchand is the same guy he was in his twenties. He has matured a ton these last 3-5 years, and has largely cut the extra-curiculars out of his game. But fans like you will go on like this till the dude retires unfortunately. Real fans of the game have noticed the change.
@@trent617tw assume much? lifelong canadian player here nitwit. you dont have a clue. marchand is a piece of s#it
Marchand is the perfect captain for Boston. Face of the franchise, has matured a lot, but still has a bit of rat in him. Boston fans love him.
The sad thing is that the Boston should have even up the series in this game. They really did the best game in the playoffs 2024. It is three person that really have under produced- Montgomery, Pasta and McAvoy
Montgomery? Damn I didn't see him get to play, must of missed it. Should have scored at least a couple to keep us in it. /s
The reality is Boston had a budget offense, and pasta was our only offensive super star, so teams could game plan around that. Next year we should be much more competitive.
Blaming Swayman is the most casual take anybody can have coming out of this series. Having said that, we ended up with the most exciting series possible. As a HOCKEY fan Rangers/Panthers is the series you want. As a RANGERS fan? I definitely wanted Boston 😂.
Brings fan here, and as crazy as it may seem, I’m rooting for the rangers!
How do bruin fans feel about Charlie mcavoy? I remember him being a lot better. He looked pretty terrible all playoffs. Was he injured or something
A tough run for him, I'm not sure if he was injured or not but I assume he was and am guessing we will hear about it if he was in the coming weeks. Definitely looked very off.
I’d love a Bruins offseason analysis. Only sweet part about losing in the playoffs is the planning of next season and the directions it can go
They need to do some serious planning, like a new coach for starters.
@@shug2795 Boston won a series despite losing Bergeron and Krejci last year to retirement. Monty is very good, we don't have the offensive firepower currently to compete at the top. But he's still made Boston one of the hardest working and most well structured teams in the NHL. That lead to us being able to beat Toronto and at least give Florida a run for their money.
I'd like to add that we are mere spectators. Our mental well-being and self-worth are not defined by our team's success or lack thereof, no matter how passionate we are.
Enjoy the experience - Hockey Is Awesome!
@@troublishonei would argue that also has to do with the matchup being against a much worse toronto team
One of the most entertaining series I've seen in a while.
R.I.P. 💀2024🪦
Boston lost all three home games. That’s on GM Don Sweeney not obtaining enough fire power.
Ha! Clearly your clueless. This team was openly said to be a bridge season from last to next. Just going with whatever they had and rounding it out with cheap free agents. So a team on a rebuild finished as one of the best teams in the league. Won one round and took a quality team like Florida to 6 games. And out side of game 2 all games were close battles.
And what team are you the GM of?
@@10bunks12 The season before, they established an NHL record for wins and points and this season not as many points, but they lost to the same Panthers. You’re nuts.
@@10bunks12 Bud...you only got where you did because of an amazing goalie. Call it what it is.
@@shug2795 ummm did I say we didn’t??? Bottom line there was very low expectations for this team this season. They preformed well above. Swaymen is included in the “they”.
@@Landis_Grant you just made my point. The Panthers same team as last year. The Bruins are not the same team as last year’s. Much lass talent. Yet the Bruins still only finished 1 point behind the Panthers and took them 6 games. All close hard fought games. So yeah thanks for agreeing with me. 👍.
Wow i saw my friend in the highlights lol!
I’m happy with the bruins. They had they’re chance. They weren’t supposed to be here. The future looks never ending for Boston. Sad loss. But plenty of upside unlike a lot of other teams who lost post season
Bruins and losing in heartbreaking fashion to the Florida panthers at home, name a more iconic duo
Leafs and first round exits
I could probably name 15 more iconic duos
It’s only happened twice 🤣 but nice try
leafs and game 7
You and your basement porn collection.
EXCELLENT, Wooo-Hooo, so friggin please marchand is OUT!!!!!!! Great result. Just a shame marchand did not get the career ending injury he deserves, so we could watch it again and again and again!
Rangers Panthers I can wait forever regarding this series…Go Bruins!
i mean bruins were basically rebuilding on the fly. no one even thought they would make the playoffs , let alone win a round. then took panthers to 6 games , with the refs help and marchand out 2 and half games. i’m pretty sure bruins and their fans are ok with it.
Just subscribed. Still really upset about this and it was heartbreaking. Hockey is such a grueling, tough sport to play and I just mutually feel for every team in every league. Swayman did all he could and that's often the case when a team loses- one player trying to carry the load. However, time to move on and this Rangers/Panthers series is gonna be epic! I just played the song "When The War Is Over" by Little Rive Band before this and you could listen to it and see this whole series as a different kind of war- but in hockey the war is never over..
Panthers fan here -> what shocked me the most so far in this playoffs is, how Kuch and Pasta totally disappeared. If your biggest star in the team can't make a difference, who can? Look how Barky, Rhino or Chucky steps up.
Our second scoring (Anton!), defence and goalie are just great, with Matthew, Carter and Sam showing their guts and strong mentality. I dont want to be overoptimistic, but for me Panthers has got the most complete roster in the NHL right now.
The only player in our roster who is a little disappointing for me, is Ekbald, both regualar season and PO. I know, injures, but damn, you take 7,5m for something, especialy compared to Gus or Monty.
english is not my native so i hope its understandable.. :D
What drugs are you on? First, after Bergeron and Krejci retired and Foligno went to the Blackhawks we were told not even to expect to make it to the Playoffs. Then the whole Lucic mess and Matty Poitras getting injured. And if you didn't notice, a good part of our Playoff team had been doing the I95 shuffle because they were with the Providence Bruins - Beecher, Brazeau, Lohrei, Brown, and Lauko aren't officially Boston Bruins. Yeah, I'm a Bruins fan, but seriously, all things considered they did awesome.
hahaha i never saw the glare swayman gave him last night but watching that back now after u point it out he's 100% giving him the death stare after that goal
As a Bruins fan, it was rough. The 1st goal I think Swayman wasn't ready for. It looked like one that he would put his body in front of or shift a bit more toward the left, but he barely reacted. That 2nd goal though; just the most unfortunate combination of screened by own defensemen, puck on end, no looked between defenses legs. No way in hell is that one on Swayman, not this game and not the series. He was the main reason we got this far, no doubt. I get we like to take our time with shooting to let stuff develop, but there are some times (like our PP at the end of game 4 vs Panths) where we just needed to rip some at net. Swayman starts 12 of 13 games, we only have more SOG in 2 games total. A really heartbreaking end, but still hopeful going into the offseason.
I could see the Bruins trading Ullmark. The Bruins aren't afraid to make changes, which I'd say is a large reason why they are consistently good.
Imagine if Ullmark ends up with the Panthers. Although I do actually prefer Stolarz a lot more than Ullmark.
Original 6 guy all the way, so this one hurt. Boston's the team I love to hate in the regular season (being a buds fan and all) but they're my eastern conference playoff team, so this was a major upset. But gotta hand it to Officer Bobrovski once again; there's a reason he's the number 1 cop on the force. Rangers better get it done.
I’m excited we have 20 mil cap space also I know a lot of bruins fans are hurt but I think this is a great sign a team I thought might not make it to the playoffs battled the cup favourite in the second with players 3rd and 4th liners playing good on the 1st line competing with players like Matthew tkachuk and barkov and beating players like matthews and nylander
not just controversial.. but wrong calls.. esp the Bennett fiasco of punching a concussion & obstructing goalie... both penalties & a suspension.... but flipped a W to a L. but FL works so hard.. & lots of finishers... VeryClose
False
Looking forward to your video on the Bruins' off-season. Thanks!
Not only was swayman basically the reason they got as far as they did but its hard for the bruins to expect to have won when they couldn't keep the puck.
Just looking at the shots on goal is telling. Games 2-4 they couldn't get the puck. Then they kept giving away powerplays.
Game 1 - Bruins - 29, Panthers - 39 | 5-1 to Bruins
Game 2 - Bruins - 15, Panthers - 33 | 1-6 to Panthers
Game 3 - Bruins - 17, Panthers - 33 | 2-6 to Panthers
Game 4 - Bruins - 18, Panthers - 41 | 2-3 to Panthers
Game 5 - Bruins - 28, Panthers - 29 | 2-1 to Bruins
Game 6 - Bruins - 23, Panthers - 28 | 1-2 to Panthers
Longtime bruins fan here in Canada! I’d rather see the B’s lose in OT rather than at the end of the 3rd period. The cats are definitely a force to be reckoned with. Fun series!
Pasta was a ghost in playoffs apart from that one goal.
1:14 anyone blaming swayman is RIDICULOUS he did everything he could have on that play and he is one of the main reasons the bruins made it this far in the first place. Looking at that play he can’t see that puck so his entire decision has to be based on what he can see, which is that forsling is pointed away from then net taking a contested sharp angle shot, 9 times out of ten that’s going to be a 5-hole shot that doesn’t get off the ice due to how forsling has to shoot it behind his body like that, only the puck happened to be on end so it got the lift it needed to go high. Zero chance for swayman to have guessed that the puck was on end, the only way he makes that save is luck, nothing to do with his skill as a goalie. Swayman was unreal this season, he just didn’t have the team to back it up, the bruins are shit besides him and Pasternak
Swayman pushed the team to a potential game 7. You can't blame him for the rest of the team not scoring the goals when it mattered. I'm neither a Bruins fan nor a Panthers fan but I still would have liked to see a game 7. Congrats to Florida for the win
I feel pretty good actually. We've seen what Swayman can do, just put a complete team in front of him in the next couple years
I'm not sure the panthers can bring the cup home with Bobrovski constantly fumbling his stick...
They over performed this year and I’ll take that as a step in the right direction. Definitely need a lot of work, but for a team initially projected to miss the playoffs, I can’t be mad at getting a couple extra weeks of watching them play.
so many game winning goals in the last 2 minutes of the game this year
*MacAvoy just sells the game for no reason* watch the last like 1 minute before the goal. Kid refuses to shoot on the best chance hes gotten all playoffs. Then he tries to take it off the halfwall to middle ice in the O zone with under a minute left, rather than just shoot or dump it. Then he goes cross ice out of position the whole time til the goal is scored.
Swayman said as literally the SOLE reason why this series didn’t end in five games. He’s the last person to blame here :/
Can't blame Swayman for that series winning goal. It would have been miraculous if he would have seen it in time to react to it. That was just the perfect shot. I would have to say that was just abysmally bad luck for him.
Where are the fans that screamed for goalie rotation? Swayman is elite, Bruins need a #1 centerman and a big tough D man.
You keep both of those goalies.....seriously....they are worth gold !!!!...they are so close in talent....Boston is still a good enough team to win one day....!!!
First admittedly Swayman is excellent. He burned us badly in the first round. But as a Leafs fan I cannot help but take glee in Boston's loss. Suck on it!
Swayman was the reason the Bruins had a shot at winning that game. The guy stood on his head again.
Good Video!
Panthers/Rangers is a series with so many villains it's going to be fun to watch as a neutral.
Man that hurt. I don't know what they're gonna do to my Bruins team for '24-'25 but I'm sure there will be some moves made.
I`m the Bruins, I`d take a look what it would cost to move Draisaitl out of EDM. They need a goalie, and Ullmark should have a huge value for them.
Otherwise, Toronto has the same need.
They have been a great regular season team, but this is the 2nd year in a row that sees them eliminated by the Panthers.
LOL this guy ^
I LOVE that so many of these videos are obituaries for Boston. Dab those tears ladies
You're Awesome.
They need a center that can win face offs.
Pre season the talking heads were saying the Bruins wouldn't even make the playoffs. I'm proud of the boys. Panthers are a cup contending team and the Bruins aren't. Point blank. Congrats Panthers good season Bruins. B's forever.
Swayman played great. That said, we see a ton of goals like this in today's game,due to the style of on the knees goaltending that permiates hockey. In the days of more upright goalies these type of goals (not to mention wraparounds) were a rarity.As in all eras of the game though,we still have great goaltenders.
reffing was so messed up all playoffs for all teams.
Ref qualifications:
1. visual impairment
2. questionable judgment
3. need to control the game
You've touched on what "play-off" hockey is by definition. That's why this sport suddenly transitions into some other sport come the play-offs. The teams are the same. The roster is the same. The coaches are the same. Certain teams - especially the Bruins - RELY on putting the officials into repeated awkward decision-making situations by introducing "marginal play". THIS, in-of-itself, is what CHANGES the game disproportionately.
Swayman was awesome. He was always squared up to the shooter. It’s not his fault.
I definitely saw that glare from Swayman lol.
Yeah...the D-man's job is to get on that shooter. Swayman was already playing the net. He didn't need a second goalie SCREENING him.
there was such little room, and it still went
Please dive into bruins’ offseason!
Ullmark has a no trade clause, hopefully can figure it out and we can be successful next year. Shocking year with how bad the roster was. Tough way to go out
It was a ridiculous goal - I’d say 1 in 100 at least. Crazy it happened at that time….
I am not mad at all and its not too painful. We just need to rebuild and im excited for the off season keep debrusk (If he wants too) and grzelcyk and maybe forbort and get rid of the rest resign swayman for say 6mil if he allows it debrusk for 4 or 5 forbort for 2 grzelcyk for 3 and find some depth scoring for the 2nd and 3rd line. I like ullmark I would keep him because it would be tough to ruin the tandem but if we need to trade him for a solid 2nd line star we should. theres no super stars right now outside swayman and pasta and mcavoy marchand kind of lost the juice hes a solid 2nd liner now we need a 6-8mil player that can put up 30+ goals on the season and hopefully put up points in playoffs. Swayman can show he can carry in playoffs and the work load isnt too much for him in playoffs but our offence didnt wake up.
Ullkmark for Stamkos would be huge.
Sway played incredible and was easily the Bruins best player of the post-season.
It's a bit of a rebuild year, the Bruins played far above their expectations. The fact that it was a very close game 6 says a lot about the Bruins digging deep when they had to. It also tells me that the Panthers probably aren't going to win the cup.
Why would we trade for a free agent?
People aren’t blaming swayman, I think ppl just did like how he tried to blame the defenseman for that softball final goal
If the Bruins scored exactly 3 goals in every game (which would’ve been bottom third in the league during the RS), they would’ve swept Toronto and beaten Florida in 6. I wanna die.
would love a deep dive video into the bruins offseason potential johnny
Pasta looked like absolute shit the entire playoff run and people blame Swayman. lmao. I definitely almost cried when they lost, they gave us so much hope with that game 5.
TD Garden is the unofficial second home of the Florida Panthers fr 💀
I don't like how far ahead the eastern conference is getting from the western conference... like.. they're a full 2 scheduled games ahead of the last schedule match up in EDM vs VAN... feels like they're trying to give the eastern boys a rest before they go up against the western teams in the final
I feel bad for Swayman on this one... Getting screened by your own guys is one of the most frustrating things that can possibly happen to a goalie.
Both teams played very well, no reason to make wholesale changes over a series that could have easily went either way.
This game had me stressed i thought it was gonna be ot haha, i dont even know how that gw goal even got in
Swayman did everything he could, considering the Bs can only score 2 goals a game, the only exception being Game 1. Nobody is going to win the Cup scoring 2 a game.
Love to see it
Ah yes, Goalie Death Stares. That one likely more lethal than usual given it was a late series-winning goal in the playoffs.
I think you meant forehand backhand. Liam got it wrong live as well😂
Florida/New York is the right and just conference final match up. New York has to have the edge, but Florida thrives on opportunistic goals. On paper, New York. On the ice, I have no idea.
would love to see a bruins offseason vid!
The Bruins were simply out played by a superior Hockey team. Other than Goaltending, which I’d give Boston a slight edge, the Panthers are just better than the Bruins in every aspect of the game. A team like Boston can’t win a playoff series against a team like Florida unless everyone is contributing.Too many guys who we relied on during the season for secondary scoring just disappeared. If the Bruins are going to get better they need a few more legitimate Top 6 forwards starting with a Center who can actually win a face off. Getting bigger & more physical would help too. Boston was playing like it was the regular season & the Panthers seemed to be just pushing them around.
The B's had no scoring, this was Zacha's first playoff goal ever.....where were Pasta and Marchand??? Florida had four lines playing...the B's had 3, the fourth line, which was the "energy" line all year was hamstrung with Maroon....let's face it he did nothing. Montgomery playing him was a huge mistake. Play the kids.
Pastrnak going one game without even shooting didn't help. I think in a second game he scored once and stopped trying after that. Bruins coach was right after the TOR series: He needs to produce more.
that boston fan on the thumbnail was just speechless its not even funny 💀
It is lol
