Ullmark was fine, he was totally screened on 3 of those goals, the defense needs to be better in front of the net and on those breakouts. And I agree on the ice, the Bruins were falling down all night trying to move the puck.This is not an excuse but within the first 10 minutes of the game, I felt like the Garden ice sucked. Lots of errant passes, weak shots/whiffed shots and passes, and guys were even falling down. Hell, Bennett fell down on the first goal of the game.
Nevertheless, the Bruins had their fair share of scoring opportunities and did not capitalize. Hats off to Florida for how physical they played because at no point did Boston match their intensity.
Lots of fabricated stories about Ullmark this AM and "should they make a change" talk radio fodder, but he was absolutely the least of their problems last night. The entire team basically no-showed and a few guys even melted down.
Friday will be interesting. Go B's!
TB is ripe to be beat. They have played so much hockey the last three years. That takes a toll eventually. That and injuries. And key departures from the team. They blew that game today. 26 seconds to go. And they would be up. Instead of down a game. that's hard to overcome.Leafs beat TB in OT after (to my mind) being outplayed in OT. All that matters is the scoreboard and I think I want TB out of the playoffs. Still focused on B’s winning this series but TB i don’t think I want to see in later round
