Bruins have been playing the counter game. As soon as the Pens take control in their own zone, 5 Bruins run back behind the blue line and wait for the Pens to make mistakes. Lucky for the Bruins, the Pens have been coughing shit up worse than a dying old man. Bruins have a forecheck, but the Pens have also just been utter shit at generating anything or completing passes.

They don't look horrible which worries me.
Don't think Bylsma is yelling "PASS IT TO NO ONE!" or "DUMP IT OFF THE WALL TO AN OPPOSING DEFENDER!" from behind the bench.
Again, one of two scenarios:
Pens get rewarded for their efforts or the Bruins stick in a dagger. Or Rask just steals it the rest of the way.
Pens need SOMETHING to light a fire under them. This team has the talent and the workrate. They can do it. They just need a fucking GOAL.
Crosby heard you. He's whining to the refs again.

It was bound to happen.
Dude, was too worked up inexplicably defending the Xbox One - a system most Microsoft employees can't be bothered to defend - to even update the OP playoff matchup graphic.
It's Bruins hockey, bro. That's just "playing on the edge."
I think Bylsma is clueless.
Playing without Crosby and Malkin in 2011 says you're wrong. Actually, every time he's been forced to coach without his stars, he's done well. I think he'd do wonders for a team without a bunch of superstars. But...eh, we'll see.
I believe. Let's go Pens.
A bit weird that someone who doesn't really post here is reporting to NHL-GAF that a regular has been banned. No offense intended
He actually discusses hockey and has gotten a lot more sensible lately. Not sure why he deserves any hate
He is, like, the original fucking Xbot, though. I think he was a big Microsoft fan so I remember the moment the console launched, even though the games were shitty, he fucking loved it.
They need a damn confidence boost big time.
I only post here when Vancouver riots.

It was close to the net too, but I thought they were going to get the icing.

Yea Bruins let them get some rhythm by taking penalties.
