R1G6: Bruins @ Leafs - May 12th, 7:30pm - CBC, Fan 590

Hmm normally I like putting the puck to the net to get an offensive zone faceoff but that might not work so well tonight  :-\

Wes should go with the "Put the puck in the net and get a faceoff at center" plan

 

[pnjunction]

Nice shift by Kulemin but our other forwards have been pretty invisible so far

 

[ZBBM]

McClement resides in heaven amongst the gods.

?! what happened to him?

In his free time, I should have added.  8)

Helps the gods out with their PK?

Sure.  They were down to 27th in the league.  Playing way below their potential.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

So Carlyle's got our only two faceoff guys (Grabs and McClement) playing on the same line at even-strength.

 

[pnjunction]

It looks like Carlyle is picking forwards out of a hat

Sweet turn the game our way on this PP!

 

[LittleHockeyFan]

that was a felonious assault on my Joffrey   

 

[LittleHockeyFan]

Chara throws him into the goalie and JVR gets the penalty?!?!?!?!

 

[pnjunction]

JVR gets pushed in and goes to the box 

 

[CarltonTheBear]

That was a pretty weak call.

 

[Bates]

Those were both very weak calls.

Ref yelling "Look at me!! Look at me"

 

[13th fan]

Refs are dictating the game ....boooo

While losing Bozak is much tougher on the Leafs than losing Fraser, it has forced Carlyle to make yet another line-up change that I think is actually very beneficial for the Leafs. For Fraser it was putting Gardiner and Franson together. For Bozak, it's putting Kessel, Lupul, and JVR on the top powerplay. I've said before that I think Bozak should at most just be taking face-offs on the PP and then changing at the first opportunity.

 

[Rebel_1812]

kessel looked pretty good as centre of the power play.

 

[lamajama]

Speaking of Fraser...anyone else not missing him at all?

 

[ZBBM]

O'Byrne was our best defenseman that period.

 

[bustaheims]

JvR went down a little easy on the one, but, still, that should have either been neither player or both JvR and Chara.

 

[Arn]

That call on JVR was one of the worst I've seen.

Shocking.

 

[Kaberle15]

what a BS call on JVR... and great save on Bergeron...

 

[CarltonTheBear]

O'Byrne was our best defenseman that period.

Other than the two glaring errors that led to big time goals, I think he's actually been pretty solid all series long. He's been matched against Jagr and has kept him pretty quiet. Still, those errors are difficult to forget.
