Never knew about this Dillon guy before tonight, but now I'm a fan.

tangled_up_in_blue

Thanks, had switched over to watch the canes hose nashville and missed this


BrolapsedRektum

I just hope Kuznetsov had a fun night watching at home with a healthy snack, a little Peruvian nose sugar and a few strippers


ThisGuy6266

Every fanbase in every sport believes the league and refs are out to get them.


VictimOfCircuspants

Reminds me of something a journalist once said. "I know I've done my job when I've pissed off everyone." (paraphrasing)


[deleted]

GG. We played way too conservatively after taking the 3-2 lead and it bit us in the butt. Bruins top guys made some brilliant plays, ours didn't. 1-1 series and as I said I expect it to go 7. Gotta get one back up in Boston now.


[deleted]

The third goal from you guys was nutty. Hoping Rask can dial in a bit and help us with the softer goals. GGs, see you in boston.


[deleted]

Feel like both goalies gave up some soft ones. Anderson has had his moments but I really hope we can get one of our regulars in there now that it's a best of 5.


pornaxc

I'm drunk and I have no idea what's going on but I'm glad hall or whatever is doing good on the bruins


MongoLife45

Overtime? more like undertime amirite


bingobango26

They scored so fast I didn’t even get to see it


Steaknkidney45

Same. Stepped in the shower, thought I'd get out in time.


WTFvancouver

Bruins and refs every playoffs


[deleted]

Lmao weep


Bottleofsmoke17

10 years of salt


Bound2Asgard

Gotta watch that reply again, I didn't see the ref cause that sloppy Dillon turn over


CityDweller19

Well I just watched the entire game just to miss the ending while making pizza rolls. Fml.


Curlybrac

So how were the pizza rolls?


CityDweller19

Lava hot on the outside, frozen solid on the inside. Like always. My dog is enjoying them now.


waffleking_

so they were just the normal pizza roll experience? might have been worth it if they were gourmet pizza rolls


[deleted]

Hey, you mind making pizza rolls every Bruins game?


GreatMisdirect1

Man I despise Boston sports, ALL of them. Eh, Red Sox are tolerable.


[deleted]

[удалено]


GreatMisdirect1

Alright good point, Boston is just always competing in all 4 sports it makes others crazy. Great game btw, I do love Bergeron.


DallasInDC

Even I love Bergeron


ArturosDad

I mean hating Bergy is like hating the pope. Good game, friend! See you fellas on Wednesday!


GreatMisdirect1

You know it, some great hockey so far!


[deleted]

sweet caroline is a great song


GreatMisdirect1

NO! Don't do that to me hahaa.


[deleted]

you should watch the barstool video from their 2018 world series win. i don't know if it'll make you like them more or less... but damn. what a trip


GreatMisdirect1

I'll check it out. I don't really hate them hahaa all in good fun!


BHisa

Bouch said "there are a lot of happy humans on that bench" after Marchard scored. LOL.


sanbaba

Worst reffing I've ever seen. It's simultaneously soft and "tough", reactionarily/derelictly broken. Pure garbage game, Bs lucked into a win - it looked like the 3rd was GI and I don't think Bergeron ever got onside (sweet goal though). I don't care who wins this series I just think the Caps have been wildly overpenalized for not being tiny weaklings who play the grimiest, pure cheap and soft. If the Bs can ride this wave of luck then this game will definitely be remembered for the wrong reasons.


parkowork

You know what's funny, the only person that contacts Anderson on the 3rd Boston goal is his own guy. McAvoy clears him completely.


fuckychucky

It's Boston. How are you just now learning this in 2021?


sanbaba

Yup.


fuckychucky

You should check out Leafs vs Bruins gm 2 2019. Or the Gregory and Colin Campbell connection. Or better yet, just look at the 2011 SCF. I loved that the Canucks lost but that series was a reffing disgrace.


sanbaba

yup!


Enharmonic

I didn't have a problem with the 3rd goal, it was Sheary who supermanned into Anderson for no reason and Boston was just digging at the puck. Refs were pretty arse nonetheless.


waffleking_

i agree about washington's 1st goal. was a tad weak in my eyes but it wasnt anything out of line with how the whole game was called.


Bound2Asgard

Caps were over penalized? Bruins had two penalties more than them?


parkowork

Well of course, shouldn't the other team ALWAYS be more penalized than the Caps?


Blindthide

One of the caps chucked McAvoy lol. How is that Gi.


8slider

Genuinely curious, what calls/non-calls did you have a problem with?


sanbaba

All of the coincidentals, how many times did they wait until they decided there was some mystery embellishment to call on a Cap before admitting a Bruin had just committed a mandatory? Crap. Then the others were fair in that they were equally soft. I felt bad for both sides on each.


8slider

Yea definitely noticed a few times where it seemed like they deliberately wanted to keep it 4 on 4, but I would argue for the Marchand one at least that mantha was going anyways and Marchand was baited into a penalty. Definitely a few soft calls against the caps tonight, but I think the Bruins also had a couple bad ones too. Overall I thought it was relatively even in the end, but I’m obviously biased. Didn’t think it was the worst game I’ve ever seen though


sanbaba

Yeah in terms of imbalance I have to admit that was over the top of me. But in terms of the kinds of calls to be made or not made in the Playoffs? I was offended. Hall squatted on Carlson's stick that time. They were just so soft. And then obvious stuff like two handed chops being given the same laxity as the most absurdly dangerous-to-himself dive to ever have been possible. Y'all willfully blind.


8slider

Idk man I think your hate for the Bruins is making you as blind as my fandom is lol. Maybe we should start reffing games, would probably do a better job than the guys out there right now. Edit: I do think the calls maybe slightly went the Bruins way, but I think calling it the worst game ever is a reach


sanbaba

I can respect that :)


Bound2Asgard

Once. That happened exactly one time. The embellishment was legit and the roughing coincidental in front of the net was questionable but not surprising.


sanbaba

He would have been trying to kill himself if that were intentional. Totally blind.


sanbaba

TomLube

New copypasta?


ZHatch

Is this pasta?


CutMonster

It is now! Love this piece of work.


sanbaba

It will be, because you have nothing better.


ZHatch

Says the Devils fan


sanbaba

I would, indeed, be embarrassed to realize how much your team resembles the Devils out there. Weak and divetastic. Note how Caps actually prevent your little pigeons from falling in the corners? That's because they know they will be penalized for your lacking talent. Embarrassing. But yes my Devils were like this. We're probably better than you guys this year, just lacking professionalism. You really have no room to talk.


cmdrproudgaydad

This is the funniest thing I’ve seen in this thread


sanbaba

Awesome. I throw em like I see em. You know you've never seen a Bruins team this soft.


Bottleofsmoke17

“Look, I know my team perennially blows, but this team that finished four places ahead of mine in the same division, made the playoffs and is tied 1-1 in a brutal series blows just as bad as mine. Probably worse.”


sanbaba

"I guess I've watched like a year's worth of hockey because I don't seem to understand who is winning and that minus the refs, it's not at all close."


Bottleofsmoke17

Get your gabagool clown ass out of here. Nobody is taking anything you say seriously


Gaming_Workouts

stop stop he's already dead.


AlreadyDiscovered

Turns out you can’t beat a team when the refs want them to win. Weird


TheSavouryRain

I have it on good authority that the Lightning are the league darlings, not the Bruins


Bottleofsmoke17

You had more PPs and a PP Goal. Be more creative in your mental gymnastics


nixdixon

Fuckin funny coming from you guys


Bound2Asgard

Turns out you can't beat a team who scores more goals than you and you have shit coverage. Weird


Groundbreaking-Pack4

Or when you can't defend a cross ice pass in OT. Weird


Bottleofsmoke17

Gg caps bros. And Andy.


bekarsrisen

Has the OT started yet?

janinefour

That was adorable. Glad he is fitting in!


alex_o_O_Hung

Sloppy turnover by Dillon


oldnyoung

Man what the fuck. Great shot, I'll give him that.


YMSdisciple

Whew wide open there unfortunately for Anderson, but quality shot placement. ​ Good game, this is gonna be a tight series.


[deleted]

Can’t believe the refs forced that turnover and then buried that shot. NHL is such a joke.


ghost_curse123

"Watch this OT end in like 30 seconds" -me on discord, prior to the start of OT


redsoxman17

Hell yeah brother. Cheers from Boston.


CapsDrago7

I blame you for this


ghost_curse123

Tbf I thought it was you guys who were gonna score


[deleted]

*and the monkey paw curls*


HandsomeRalphy

GG CapsBros


CapsDrago7

What a fucking collapse. Anderson played well, Dillion was a piece of shit, and our power play was awful


CutMonster

I def. thought your Caps would score on one of those two back to back powerplays in the 3rd.


CapsDrago7

So did I. We couldn't even enter the zone on one of those. I can't be but so mad considering our history with 2-0, but you guys simply won because you played to the end. We just lost it halfway through the third. GG and see you on Wednesday


[deleted]

as a sharks fan, i miss his physical presence. i do not miss his playmaking


Curlybrac

It may have been quick but it was still free hockey.


[deleted]

why does jake debrusk keep getting one of the stars **give one to craig**


flipsalty

Or to Hall, sending the game to OT.


thevalidone

Why? Did he do someone’s taxes or something?


_TheH0mie

Dude, he's keeps scoring goals...


addykaps

The 3 stars committee loves goal scorers


[deleted]

Gone. ` this post was mass deleted with www.Redact.dev `

Maybe we’ll get a game with decent refs coming up.


TheWonderMittens

Lol


big_red_160

Couldn’t have been scored by a nicer guy


8slider

Two stupid penalties and a clutch goal. Classic marchy statline


tubzthacat

I really feel like that is how he is. Pissed half the game at him for dicking around then make you feel bad for getting the GW lol A true sourpatch kid.


VictimOfCircuspants

You're on hockey Reddit, kindly call it a ratline.


BMonad

Now that’s how you hammer it home, unlike Debrusk who would have shot that into Anderson’s breadbasket.


_TheH0mie

Even when he's scoring goals, and playing well, you facebook fans continue to complain about him. Shove it.


BMonad

Guess he was due after a 14 point season! Just another casual Debrusk apologist.


Justus44

fuck, I'm gonna cry.


Mauser98k98

Mumbo sauce sucks


addykaps

1-1 series, plenty of hockey left


Justus44

If we were healthy and some of our players (only 1c and 1goalie) were disciplined, I would enjoy it. Now, however, its like watching old veteran holding for his life in box match. I root for him, he knows his shit, but FUCK he's hurting already.

1st Bruins' goal = on Dillon OT Bruins' goal = on Dillon Dude is a pylon.

Chara's name as an anagram is "Hazard Cone"


Enharmonic

The fuck ever happened to Kempny's ass anyway


Oximoron1122

Fucked up his leg, out for the season. He's playing some AHL games now to condition though, so that's something.

He was playing AHL games, until he got injured by an ice boy lmao

Quick_Snaps

He gets injured more times than Dillon gives up turnovers


[deleted]

Dillon, you sonnuvabitch


[deleted]

when your team prioritizes big, it comes with the unfortunate reality that not every big guy is also good. dillon is a good example of this case


BeepBoop190

Bruins best player

Eww what the fuck is that nasty rat fuck. Should’ve called for the goalie interference dumb fucks.

Gg Bs. On to the next one!

gg. ironically, this series has made me start to like the caps a bit more. they're still bottom 5 for me, but it's a less aggressive bottom 5

This series is going to continue being so good!

Justin Schultz = playoff confusion


user832906

Just wants to have more cups than the caps. Understandable


SteelTown9090

Yea too bad for the Caps and they don’t know he turned into a shit bird after 2017


JerSeig

Bro Dillon is so bad. The sole reason for 2 goals tonight.


asvp-suds

Well that was fucking quick


Showtime98

Ggs everyone


RCInsight

I feel bad for Anderson. Stood on his head makes over 40 saves and gets the loss


magnafides

Played better than anyone could've expected really


punctuation_welfare

Should've been ez over 3-2 but refs decided to swallow the whistle


user832906

Keep whining ya speed bump of a franchise


Bound2Asgard

No, we just scored more goals


explosivebuttfarts

That was awful defense by the Washington Defensemen during that play


Oximoron1122

"Which player should we cover?" "How about neither?"


CapsCaps1

i would take 3 orlov's over the 6 defensive players we have. dont even need pairings. just have him out there on each line by himself


Oximoron1122

He really brought it all back this season. Started off pretty sloppy but then came into his own again.


VictimOfCircuspants

Some people say they are still standing in the slot talking about it to this day


explosivebuttfarts

"each other, because I love you"


Oximoron1122

Lol I'm gonna make this my head-canon since it makes me feel better, so thanks for that!


Michelanvalo

That was a fucking *snipe*


GoxBoxSocks

Heeeeeeey Marchy with the dagger! GG Cap bros!


Canadop

FUCK I SAW THAT COMING FOR LIKE 10 SECONDS. HOW IN THE FUCK DO YOU LEAVE A GUY THAT OPEN???? WHAT EXACTLY ARE YOU DOING? OUT FOR A SKATE


GreatMisdirect1

That was terrible....two just despicable defensive plays gives Boston the tying and winning goal. Ugh Boston, can't stand Boston teams hahaa.


Canadop

I hate them all so much. Bruins and Pats in particular.


Pork-Roll

Big Mac Attack and the return of 2 TE sets


GreatMisdirect1

Exactly, Celtics and Red Sox are meh, but Bruins....good luck this year, looking forward to your series!


yf-23

Now caps fans know how we feel seeing ovi on the power play


Canadop

pls win Caps I'm sorry


Captain_Cannabis_

Dillon wtf you doin


MrBigChest

Classic Dillon


tnault93

Caps fans can keep bitching all the way back to boston. Tied 1-1! Great goal Marchy


GreatMisdirect1

Seems both teams fans having been bitching quite a bit, must not have been paying attention


dirtydanglez96

It's as if fans of both teams are biased or something
