Make Bruins Great Again

NHL '21-22 season is up and running (without a poll)
At the request of another hockey fan...let the TRASH TALK begin.
I have a buddy who is a huge Caps/Ovi fan. He went on about how well the Caps did. I pointed out that they didn't exactly play a powerhouse team. Lets see how they do when they have some more serious competition. He wants to see Ovi break Gretzky's record for goals. I am sentimental about 'the great one' so its hard for me to agree. I wonder if Ovi has enough time to get it done before age takes its toll. The Kraken seem to have some legitimate credibility. They gave Vegas a run for their money and are leading the Preds as we speak. Finally, I am happy to report that Marchand has not gotten into any trouble this season. We're off to a good start. OK, who's next?

You got your first hockey related suspension. Not someone I would have guessed.

Does Chicago have its act together enough to be a serious team this year?
The suspension: I think we are going to see a lot more boarding and cross checking calls suspensions this year because the league said they were going to focus on cross checking. The Kraken are off to a good start. The question is whether they can keep going once the rest of the league knows their playbook and patterns. Of course, I said that about Vegas in their first year and they didn't do too shabby...

Mr. Bean, now known as Captain Kraken!
Flames will miss him...

NJD has a slight size advantage over Chi but we are a young team so who knows.

Well that was a cardiac session. Losing the lead and allowing the tie with seconds left then win it in OT with some great stick handling is a ride.

(In my best Homer Simpson voice) You say that like its a bad thing.
Marchand started the season opener with two goals. The first one a penalty shot. ![]()

I think I just watched the most exciting 3 on 3 OT I have every witnessed between the Rangers and the Leafs. Action everywhere. Passes and saves and the best was the Ranger goalie made a save 25 feet out of the net! Gosh I miss Tim Thomas.

There were indeed some great plays made by the goalies. Shesterkin is so good in the butterfly it's like his knees are ball and socket.

A little NHL history:
10/19/1966 Bobby Orr plays his first NHL game 10/19/1976 Bobby Orr scores his final assist (total of 645 points) Considered the greatest defenseman to ever play the game. He changed the way the game was played. ![]() ![]()

Greatest of his era, yes. Doug Harvey paved the road for him.

Yo Joe ...Slayman did not look good tonight. We may be without the new kid Hughes for awhile.

![]() Ullmark starts Friday and if he plays well, he will be #1 until if and when Rask comes back.
