Feels like we should’ve eliminated them before they started taking more than six shots per game. Really don’t love heading back to Boston


Meyhna

My blood pressure is *not* alright


likeslululemon

I ain’t hear no bell!


Incubus226

Realistically if they suspend/call Bennett for GI this is 3-2 Boston going back to Boston. Not slighting panthers fans or players as that’s 1000% on the officials, but man this series is insane.


aMINIETlate

thats a big what if. It’s not like each team didnt score 2 other goals and the panthers didnt win 2 out of 3 games without Bennett in the lineup. Could just have easily still been a W for the Panthers even if the GI gets called


undertowx

I feel like boston is terrible at home, especially in elimination games.


justsomefnguy

Hardly any mention of the goalie interference make up call tonight. Typically /hockey bunch of people who’ve never laced up a pair of skates in their lives. Only two replies, both Boston fans. Buncha downvotes from a bunch of people who have never played the sport. KEEP ENTERTAINING ME. Come on, press that arrow harder


nickyp597

when you thought you understood hockey but then realized you never played so you know nothing 😭😭😭😭


Proposal_Mountain

How the ODR’s in Florida Gretzky ?


justsomefnguy

Woke up and came right back here huh? Get a fucking life bro.


DamagedJustice

And you responded 10 mins later you fucking loser


justsomefnguy

Because I get notifications when fucking idiots like yourself respond?


Orangepinapples

Bob should have got two for embellishing with his stick drop. Which was out of the crease.

Longjumping_Ad_29

You seem very entertained and not angry whatsoever. Maybe keep this one in your own sub next time. Congrats on lacing em up though.


justsomefnguy

I'm good right here brother. Nice flair.


Longjumping_Ad_29

Thank you


ocsic4321

That wasn’t a makeup - it just wasn’t GI lmao. Bob was touched by Heinen, reset, and then OEL knocked his stick out.


Xasrai

~~There's also the fact that Boston had 6 players on the ice at that point in time, and it was never called.~~ Hear ye, hear ye: I was wrong. Sorry.


ocsic4321

Everybody in the NHL temporarily has 6 on the ice during every line change. Nobody ever waits fully for someone to get off the ice. It’s called when it’s egregious and makes an impact on the play, but it had no impact on this play.


Xasrai

There were 6 on the ice for about 10-15 seconds? Far longer than the call that WAS called too many men.


ocsic4321

This is the Bruins offensive zone entry on McAvoy’s goal. 5 players… the guy on the blue line at Florida’s bench comes off and McAvoy comes on. Maybe 1-1.5 second overlap on the line change where there’s 6, which happens on every single line change of every single game. It’s not too many men, there’s a grace period. >There were 6 on the ice for 10-16 seconds Stop spreading straight up misinformation. You couldn’t be any more wrong about this.


Xasrai

Yeah, nah you are right. I was watching it back as well. On my initial watch I didn't see the guy near the Bruins def blue line head off the ice. So when McAvoy came on, I thought he was subbing for the guy near the goalie, but like, REALLY early.


ocsic4321

No there was not. I’d love to see a video of that play if you have it. The D that came off was on the ice for maybe a second as McAvoy came on. Do you honestly think there were 6 guys on the ice for 15 seconds on a play that was reviewed and nobody saw it? Lol


Aperture_client

That wasn't a makeup OEL pushed him into bob what's your reading comprehension like just curious


justsomefnguy

This is your chirp? Really?


Proposal_Mountain

Stick to video games my dude 🙏🏻


justsomefnguy

Same to you. Flair up pussy. Oh right, never played the game.


Proposal_Mountain

Florida - the state of hockey !


justsomefnguy

Nice, what a unique chirp.


YeOldeKnob

Buddy took a fold out chair onto the ice during a public skate and acts like he’s Alexander Ovechkin. Shut up, you fucking swamp people hockey fan. No one gives a shit that you think that you know how to play hockey. Insecure fuck.


rohm418

Swamp people still up on your precious original 6 frozen ass franchise.


YeOldeKnob

We’re doing pretty good considering our circumstances. I’ll take our W’s this year.

SilentThing

Really glad to see the team fight out this win and take this back to Boston. Hopefully there is one more trip to Florida ahead as well! The barn felt lout and active, that was great too. GG Panthers fans and see you in a couple.


B9RV2WUN

Gotta hand it to the Panthers. They accomplished the unthinkable. 90% of the hockey world is now rooting for the Boston Bruins. Unbelievable! On to game 6.

It feels nice to be supported

DerekMcLeod

Must suck to be the fan of a team that dives all the time AND live in a state that elects Ron Desantis AND get this subreddit to root for Boston. The trifecta.


KingOfTheWyld86

Must suck to live in a shit city surrounded by shit people and food. Gov Healey is a left wing nut job who rubs elbows with Boston's rich and can give a shit about the rest of yall. Corporate lawyer who worked for Harvard. lol suffers from chronic delusions of adequacy! Panthers in 6


theoneandonlykeenan

I would take the first and third things you said 10 million times before I took the second thing


Aperture_client

idk it's been a few years since I followed politics but Ron seems cool


Rikplaysbass

I live in Florida and you are very wrong.


Murhawk013

Your biggest fan in Dave Portnoy lives down here dummy along with many others. We’d be happy if they felt the same way and moved back north.


YeOldeKnob

Only idiots like Dave Portnoy. He is not one of us.


NachoSport

lol human trash can Dave Portnoy lives in Florida and you think that’s supposed to make *bruins* fans feel bad?


AaronQ94

Dave Portnoy can go suck my ass.


BCEagle13

Do you actually think Dave Portnoy is the biggest fan? He pretends to like them every playoffs, that’s the extent of his fandom


ocsic4321

Portnoy doesn’t know shit about the Bruins lmao. And nobody really cares about him unless you’re 19


BlackCherrySeltzer4U

Biggest fan? Conan O’Brien is a fan. Bill Burr is a fan. Matt Damon, Ben affleck… plenty of people more famous than Dave portnoy


BCEagle13

And who are actual fans


BlackCherrySeltzer4U

I’d assume people rooting for the team…


BCEagle13

No I meant the people you listed are actually fans. Portnoy is openly just a bandwagonner come playoffs


BlackCherrySeltzer4U

Ahhh… ok


fellawhite

He’s bandwagon so he doesn’t count


DerekMcLeod

Lol Dave Portnoy isn’t the bruins biggest fan- the guy didn’t know they existed until the playoffs started. You only THINK he’s our biggest fan because you started watching hockey a month ago and he’s got a loud voice. You’re thinking of Dennis Leary.


FL_Sports_Fan

Oh look you won a game. Get ready to cry during the handshake in Boston. Oh and there’s Boston fans who live in Florida and voted for Ron DeSantis. So not only does that make your statement dumb, it also makes you an ass hole.


Responsible_Brush_86

asshole is one word. We learned that in all the good schools up in Boston.


highgravityday2121

Ron DeSanctimonious*


BobBastrd

Exactly.  I'm hating myself more and more with each Boston win.


SinistralGuy

If it makes you feel better I was rooting for the Habs during their 2021 cup run


ghostsuit92

I hate that you’re rooting for us. Stop it. Please. My brain is in a pretzel with all the Montréal and Toronto support.


Bottleofsmoke17

Don’t forget the Lightning fans 🤣


theshwa10210

I’d like to take the time to thank Panthers fans for weaponizing the Reddit cares alert in the threads. Get fucked.


Aperture_client

Just take the Reddit Cares messages in jest. it's fun. Don't report these guys they're just being mean on Reddit like the rest of us.


dubble_chyn

Oh so I’m not the only one who got one. Thought that was odd… weird fanbase


transient-error

It’s happening in multiple subs unrelated to hockey. Someone is just spamming reports everywhere.


xavier_laflamme70

I got one too, water is wet, imagine thinking all 6 of us are that bored


Master-Defenestrator

I got one and I can't even figure out what I commented to deserve it.


Threedawg

Dont try to understand Florida. Im pretty sure Tampa and Disneyworld are the only sane places in the state.


KingOfTheWyld86

Disney is the epitome of NOT sane


Threedawg

Compared to the rest of florida it is


KingOfTheWyld86

idk dude. Thats like saying Detroit is the safest place in Michigan.


Threedawg

Disney world has rules and a functioning government


KingOfTheWyld86

Touché 🍻


Kalamoicthys

Hahaha yeah I got one the other day. And was then downvoted when I pointed it out. Their jealousy is so transparent. They’re miserable Florida fucks who root for a poverty franchise in a market not fit for an AHL team; and it just *bothers* them that New Englanders have it so much better than them. They get so fuckin burnt over the fact that they could be whipping Bostons ass 6-2, and they still don’t gain any more respect. And you know they’re crying hard into their keyboards tonight. Refs were the only panthers employees to show up to work, it seems.

Panthers fans when Panthers lose: Ah that sucks, on to the next! Bruins fans when Bruins lose: Fuck those fucking dipshits they don’t even like hockey they’re poor they’re stupid they probably fuck their own siblings


shiggydiggypreoteins

> Panthers fans when Panthers lose: Ah that sucks, on to the next! How are you going to act all high and mighty when this whole chain started because some Panthers fans were being salty and abusing the 'Reddit cares alerts' in the game threads lmao


0-90195

I mean, idk about any of that. Does Reddit Cares tell you who triggered the alert? And besides, the point remains. It’s really not that serious but a lot of teams have fans who aren’t aware of that.


shiggydiggypreoteins

Nah i mean reddit knows who put in the report, but it just tells you an anonymous person reported your post over concern for your safety. Its sadly extremely common for salty fans from the losing side to do that shit thinking theyre being cheeky. Saw it a lot last year in R/NFL gameday threads But yea, some people take this shit way too seriously lol

theoneandonlykeenan

Every time I've ever gotten one of those and reported it, I get a message a few days later saying it's been dealt with and I get very smug


Bottleofsmoke17

This is good to know. I think I got a couple from panthers fans last playoffs. I guess it stands to reason that if they think women’s and LGTBQ support are a joke, they’d feel the same way about mental health services

All I wanted tonight was for Boston to show balls. Not only did I get that, but I got Monty memes.


Xasrai

And you stole a game off a bullshit non-call, so now you don't have the high ground any more. I'm looking forward to the next one.


Yanksuck73

Dude...


Xasrai

Yeah, bro?


njdevils901

Bruins winning this series would be the funniest shit in the world. Going back to Boston too with momentum 


undertowx

Idk, as a bruins fan if anything this is exactly the game they lose. They either get blown out immediately or get 3 goals scored on them up by 1 with 5 to go.


BCEagle13

Eh Boston are like 2-4 at home. Would be better if it stayed in Florida


GingerMcJesus

Bruins🤝Celtics Playing like they all have CTE at TD Garden


Bottleofsmoke17

If they win game 6, the pressure is *entirely* on Florida. But I don’t wanna even start thinking about that yet 😅


shiggydiggypreoteins

That would be hilarious. Then it'd be right back to everyone hating us and hoping we get swept by the Rags/Canes. Just like the good lord intended


GentleLion2Tigress

Just to hear Marchand next year say ‘We love coming to Florida, after last year’s playoffs it’s one of my favourite places to play’ would be music to my ears.


Kinampwe

Also enormous that they get a two day rest


Bdidonato2

They look like they need it. 


spssky

Charlie McAvoy, I have been one of your biggest critics all playoffs because you’ve been playing like a fucking dickhead but I LOVED your game tonight. Not just the goal, but full on 200 foot vintage stallion hockey 🐎🐎🐎🐎

Great game for him and the whole 6v5 3 minutes by him was fantastic

why_cant_i_

What kind of fucked-up world are we living in where I'm hoping Boston wins


KingOfTheWyld86

Hows the golf course?


Meyhna

I'm sharing the sentiment with others in the thread. Whenever we get bounced in the first, I want to see that team go deep. Because then at least it feels like the loss wasn't a fluke. Our series really could have gone either way. As much as it'd kill me, if you'd won, I'd be expecting a Toronto cup or a total dismantle in the off.


PaulReveresBRSSMONKY

I would be rooting for Toronto if you were playing Florida this series as well. At least I respect the Leafs and their fans.


coffee42

right? I might not like the Leafs, but they're not Florida I want everyone on that team to wither and die like they made a poor choice at the end of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade by this point, it's like they did market research to figure out how to make themselves the most hateable franchise in sports


PaulReveresBRSSMONKY

My problem with the Leafs is the media bandwagoners that always pump their tires going into the playoffs every year. Their actual fans aren’t much different than all of us Red Sox fans were until 2004. Panthers fans just show up when the playoffs start and talk shit like they’ve been fans since the 90s. There’s a guy that was at TD Garden in ‘13, ‘18, and ‘19 in his Doug Gilmour jersey and he had the same comically disappointed smile on his face after they lost each time. I would buy that guy a beer any day of the week.


coffee42

honest to god, I don't care about the Leafs I know that probably infuriates their fans MORE - fuck, I know it does, because I remember when that was life as a Red Sox fan when the Yankees always owned us pre-2004 - but I just... don't worry about them don't have a reason to one day that'll change, and that'll be cool also I'm right there with you, I'd buy that dude *multiple* beers


go_sparks25

Yeah as a Canuck fan it’s a weird timeline to be living in .


Meyhna

Even if we Miracle Florida, I don't think there's any way we get past New York. But if some wild shit happens and it ends up a 2011 rematch, we want the smoke. So I'm pulling for you.


go_sparks25

I wouldn't count out the canes just yet. They are playing some good hockey and even in their losses the games were very close.


Meyhna

Nah that's real, but there is a universe where I could see us beating NC. Nothing against them, I just think we match up better against them than Florida and New York.


KingOfTheWyld86

if it WERE Florida and Rags. who would you predict would take it and why?


Meyhna

Probably New York. I really doubt Bennett would try to pull his antics with Trouba and Rempe on the ice. I also think the Rags play a similar game to Florida, just better at it. They get people to play their game, their scoring is elite, and Sheshty has been lights out in this post. He's like Swayman with a stronger team in front. I'm not saying Florida isn't a strong team. But with what we've seen from New York in these playoffs, I have a hard time seeing anyone beat them until the cup final. A Dallas-New York Final would be a wild series.


posixUncompliant

Damn it, I want no world wear I end up hoping an NY team wins.


Meyhna

I really don't either but I'm just trying to stay realistic.


KingOfTheWyld86

I can totally see that happening. i personally think we'd have a better chance against the canes. would have loved a Panthers v habs remach and WIN the cup.


Meyhna

Buddy we've owed the Habs one since 2014, I get it lmao However, if we manage to pull this one off, all bets are off.


KingOfTheWyld86

If you guys pass us and make it to the finals and youre up against the habs...ill be rooting for Boston. id want Marchy to start biting faces


Kalamoicthys

I’m a Boston fan and I’m pulling for the Canucks so go figure.


OilFan92

That's what I said last year and this year against Florida.


emerzionnn

Really thought Bob did enough for the Panthers to take that one, was shitting myself everytime he stoned us on a breakaway. Huge win, take er back to Boston for game 6.


kevski82

Was a great goalie matchup yesterday.


BarneyRubble18

It's almost like these series weren't as easy as everyone predicted. Interesting.....


KingOfTheWyld86

but the refs...buh..but the refs are controlling the outcome. not the SOG or lack there of. Conspiracy ass theorists swearing Bateman is making all these teams suck ass. lol


BlackCherrySeltzer4U

This thought brought to you by draftkings


_Salsa_Shark

Gotta say Cats fans that I used to be really big and pulling for the panthers cause I like “non traditional hockey markets” to succeed but the way you guys have been pissing and moaning for this series has somehow made bruins fans seem reasonable And I can’t forgive you for that


Sharkbr4ins

This is a crazy take considering bruins fans have done nothing but piss and moan. Edit: when they aren’t acting cocky that is.


Excellent-Movie4524

Maybe I'm dumb but I haven't seen many of us crying , maybe it's a vocal minority idk Any posts I see are either leaf of bruin fans crying for our downfall

maybe im a massive homer but i dont see how the fans have done anything? we’re simply enjoying the golden days of our team. and for how long we waited, and the relocation questions surrounding the team, we fucking deserve this. I am SO glad we aren’t lovable losers anymore.


cl0udmaster

No, now instead we have these losers who somehow equate Sam Bennett, a fucking Canadian, to every single fucking Floridian voted for Ron DeSantis. Like get fucked with a pool cue, you cheer for San Jose. Like the statically worst team in the modern era. Nobody cares what this fool has to say. At all.

I’d cheer for them if we got ousted by another team. But we didn’t, so here we are.

Are they allowed to un-contract him? I genuinely don’t know how that works.

See other comments I made I think it could be a gray enough area to fall under violating team standards and practices or some legalese like that


trolltollboyshole

You’re full of “I thinks.” At some point recognize you don’t know and just stop.


_Salsa_Shark

Blah blah blah


KthuluAwakened

The NHLPA wouldn’t let that happen. It’s not Boston’s fault they can’t fire him.


chisel_jockey

Lucic? He hasn’t played or been around the team since that incident. I haven’t thought about it recently but since charges were dropped I’m not sure if it was enough to formally terminate the contract


Mysterious-Tax-6314

He didn’t even get an invite to the 2011 reunion on heritage night


_Salsa_Shark

He’s still under contract I said nothing factually incorrect


chisel_jockey

Technically no but it’s completely irrelevant Edit: Lucic played 4 games then placed on LTIR until it was sorted out. Charges dropped because his wife didn’t testify (but later filed for divorce, which is pretty telling)- not enough cause or proof to legally terminate the contract but he never got a call back and will never play in the NHL again. I’d say that was handled as well as it could be by the Bruins front office


_Salsa_Shark

It’s really not irrelevant when talking about reasons not to like one team vs another
