We're always looking for a saviour....for one guy to be the one. But it's the entire team that has to step up, start to finish. Don't be satisfied with a lead....or scared of it. Be pissed off and fight to keep it. (Not literally, figuratively).

 

Time for every single player to "leave it all out there on the ice". We see glimpses of that but, at this point, it has to be a sustained thing. No dabbling. Structure is great, but heart's important too.

A 60 minute effort would be a great start.

Whatever this “structure” is that Rutherford keeps focusing on, it feels like either the players can’t execute it or the coaches can’t or don’t really want to teach it. They look like they’re trying to play a certain way that’s stifling creativity and causing visible confusion. 
 

Just go out and play pond hockey. Have fun and try some crazy plays. Entertain us! Surprise us! Nothing to lose against the Bruins tonight.

Got the potential to get ugly, Boston have hardly trailed at home. Special teams, faceoff matchups all look bad. This is the best in the league against the worst, so who knows, maybe we win in OT...

 

Crazy to think how these two teams diverged after the 2011 finals. Boston retooled and remained a contender pretty much every season since while we've not retooled or rebuilt and been a losing team every year since.
