You can't put him to checking line, he is awful in defense. Better to use him in 1-2 lines and pp units or give him free tickets to Bruins games.

The checking line is most likely to be the 3rd line not the 4th.

Wow Kovalev score 4 goals and put one assist in the OTT-PHI game. That was certainly is good game for the 20 upcoming games. :-D Giroux at PHI finish with -6, i didn't see this really often since i watch hockey and Simon Gagné with one goal finish with -5.....bad games happen. :-D

In Penguins, Satan played 2nd line and often switched with Petr Sykora. When one of them played, the other wasn't on roster. I think this is going to happen in Bruins, too. Only 2nd line, maybe sometime 1st line (on PP). No checking/grind lines...

Patrice Bergeron quit the game against the Rangers due to an injury. He most likely receive a shot on thw wrist and he didn't come with the team at OTT, he will see a doctor at Boston. Too bad for him, hope he will not be injured too long if he wants to make the olympic team, plus it sucks for the Bruins too........but for me it sucks for team Canada. :-D

I hope Bergeron's injury isn't as bad as what I'm hearing. If so, he could be out a month or more.

Unfortunately, ESPN talk about 2 to 6 weeks for Bergeron. He maybe can't do the Olympics.

That would be just Bergeron's luck. Get named to the Olympics but get injured so he can't play.

Well he has yet to see the specialist so any estimations are just random guesses anyway. I suppose you can't go wrong with just saying 2 to 6 weeks and then claim you were right without ever really having had any inside info at all eh...

Anyway, Satan will play vs the Sens tonight. Those 10 days sure went by quickly :D

Even then he will be more useful on the first line than Begin.
Dupont, who usually got inside contacts with the Bruins says Bergeron out 2-3 weeks. Not confirmed but better than ESPN's info.

Satan got Kessel's #81. Nice to see that number with a big fat SATAN on it :-p

Timmeh has now won 11 straight against the Sens. Satan had a quiet game, not really visible positively or negatively, almost scored one heck of a breakaway goal going around the dman and the goalie, just didn't get enough on it in the end. Bruins dropping like flies, Ference left the game with an injury after a Kovalev slewfoot ](*,)

That was just his first game since Stanley Cup finals. Let's see what he can do in last 40 games.

Nothing new: Brodeur make a shutout...

And Hossa scores 2 goals in second straight game, not like it's something awesome, but it's good to see him produce. I really hope Blackhawks make it as far as possible this year.

I think it's been confirmed now. They said Bergeron won't need surgery and it's actually a broken thumb. This is very good news. Bergeron has been the Bruins' best player for most of the season.

It was nice to see Wheeler have a good night last night. He needed to get with the program. I think the signing of Satan might have lit a fire under his butt. There was talk (before Bergeron's injury) of Wheeler possibly being sent down to the AHL.

So now that Satan is wearing Kessel's old 81, this proves that Kessel is the Antichrist.

Wait B72---You are giving up way too much. No way Kesshole is the Antichrist (Kesshole because I am tired of people who hate the Canucks calling perhaps the best 2 way forward in the NHL Kesshole...so I am moving it to Kessel instead)

Kesshole Kessel is not the antichrist that would insinuate he has some kind of power and some way to get something done. And that is impossible because he is a MAple Loaf. So he is just....a piece of dirt. That is all.

Aiyeeeee.....Must keep telling myself: No more rambling that makes no sense....repeat 2000 times and remember that this time. Geez batdad

LOL! darn, you're right. Kessel is just a piece of dirt. The whole 81 thing must just be a coincidence. That's good. I always thought 666 was the number of the beast... not 81.
