Pre-Game Talk: Boston's top 3 players scared to come to ottawa

[All Alfie]

I guess the Bruins don't want Timmy's confidence crushed before the playoffs.

[SelleckStache]

Just punish their D all night. Without Chara back there it should be easier

Agreed.

While not even trying, Erik Condra displayed something that we are going to need come playoff time. I can't wait to see what this guy does during overtime and the later parts of a series.

Discuss.

[Gil Gunderson]

I'd be in favor of Karlsson and Spezza sitting out. No point of risking it in this game.

Karlsson, Spezza, Alfie and Michalek if it were up to me.

[Countdown0]

I just wanna see Neil throw some hits like he did last night. Obviously, I like the refs to be better... At this point, wins are just gravy

Not sure how this ended up in Thai thread???

Who is going to hit them? Our two biggest hitters (Chara and Boychuk) are not playing back on D --likely McQuaid too. Watch out for Krug!

[True Believer]

Despite what the fans want, this is a nothing game. Alfie should get a rest and anyone else who is banged up should rest too. We need to keep our powder dry until the playoffs.

Exactly, if there wasn't enough pressure on Boston the expectations go even higher based on the season series.

Gonna be huge pressure if Ottawa ever gets a series lead.

TRUE, Ottowa can be tricky at times, but I have been praying to play you guys over Caps/Sabres any day of the week. Our physical game is what may take over in this series if the refs dont ruin the games, aside from that i think our D and goaltender are much better, your offense can be scary at times but as stats say, Bruins were +64 this season, best in NHL Ottowa +13

[Flamingo]

Chara's stay-at-home defenseman ploy backfires as he drops out of Norris contention.

[Marty Straka]

GDT is up so we can continue discussion there.
