130.1Tonight might be a difference???NEMAIL::DESTEFANODMon Mar 03 1997 11:005
    Where are the all knowing predictions......is this the game that will
    turn the tide or will it be the continuation of Harrys' boys.....
    
    
    
130.2PLEASE FIRE KASPER !DONVAN::R_PLOURDEMon Mar 03 1997 11:4121
    
    Bruins will win tonight... Carey will play great. Be a savior and 
    Sinden & Kasper will toot each others horn about how well they did 
    with this trade. 
    
    
    Bottom line the only thing Harry has going for him is extra $ to sign 
    some good draft picks (here's hoping we get 1sr overall). Also,
    interesting comments in the ESPNzone about how building up the Caps
    will help better the pick we get from Hartford. There should be 
    no doubt that barring problems with the Caps getting both Tocchet and
    Oates in their line up there will be no reason why the Caps don't oust 
    Hartford and Boston then gets another high round pick. 
    
    I think Allison and Carter are going to get alot of ice time for Boston
    the real question will be can either produce ?  I doubt it. They have
    no one to play with. Moger& Donato have just become the most talented
    forwards on this team... That's bad.

130.3Might just tune inUSCTR1::tay1dhcp96-183.tay1.dec.com::HIGGINSGEMon Mar 03 1997 16:2113
Well. Only time will tell how this trade pans out but if Carey plays 
tonight it will certainly pique my interest to tune in.

Aside from this I'll spend the rest of the week taking in the Central 
Mass high school hockey tourney in Marlboro. Saw the end of a nail 
biter with Wachusett nocking off Shrewsbury 2-1 (upset) and 
Leominster beating a pesky Marlboro team 6-0 last night. (You should 
have seen the hitting in this one...a beauty) I missed the 
N.Middlesex/Fitchburg game but assume NM took it. Next games are this 
Wednesday, Leominster/Wachusett & N.Middlesex (?)/Algonquin. Times 
are 5:45 and 8:00pm. Anyone interested in hooking up drop me a line.

130.4B's lose....Carey smokin' the pipe fer sure...ASDG::MCNAMARAstrange visitor......Tue Mar 04 1997 08:0921
    ...hey George, I wuz there fer that Blue Devil game also (I *am* from
    Lemon_Town, after all)...great game as you said....maybe I'll stop by
    on Wednesday to root 'em on...sure the hell beats watchin' the B's
    stumble thru the "Season from Hell".....
    
    onto last night's debaucle:  Carey looked *real* jittery, lets in some
    real softies, Ghost-Boy pulls him, B's lose 4-2....the only B playing
    his heart out was  Cap'n Ray (2 goals)....B's were just running in
    circles, looked like the IHL All-Star game rather than 2 of the
    Original Six-ers playing, MAN they suked big-time....
    
    
    Ran into ol' Jer in the coffee line....almost attacked me, JEEESH!!!
    Get some decaf, willya Jer???  And I reminded Jerry that the 1st game
    wayy back in the early 80's) Andy Moog played after coming to Boston,
    he got blown out by Les Habbies, 5-2......hopoe this is just nerves
    on Carey, not a harbinger of things to come....

    Tough start for Jim Carey................4 goals in one
    period against the Maple Leafs, C'mon.  Hope it's just the
    first game jitters now that he's w/ the B's.  Carey's not
    even gonna see any action in beantown 'til they come home 
    on the 13th against Montreal.......
    
    On another note, Tallas played good last night after S-s-s-Smokin'
    Jim got the hook....

130.6Missed mostUSCTR1::tay1dhcp96-183.tay1.dec.com::HIGGINSGETue Mar 04 1997 09:2411
I missed most of last nights game but did catch some on the AM dial 
with Newmy & Bricks. It was 3-1 when I tuned out and looks like the D 
coughed up a couple that Carey couldn't handle. Checked back in late 
in the 3rd during Emeril Live commercials. Was Carey really that 
shakey or did he have no support?

Hey Mac. I'll be at the Lemonstir game tomorrow. 5:45 I'll be leaving 
TAY around 5:00. Look for the 6'1"/230 lber with glasses. Try and 
roust Pelkey too. Should be a good game!

130.7George...what year is it????ASDG::JOHNSONwraflc::gamesTue Mar 04 1997 09:2817
    Come on Mac...stop living in the past will ya! This is 1997....start
    getting with the program :-)))
    
    I'm not blasting Carey but when a keeper has sh*t in front of him he's
    going to play like sh*t. No keeper can survive with a team like the
    Ruins playing up in front of him. 
    
    Soooo.....Pats get to the stooper bowel, Celtics and Ruins are mired in
    the cellar.......How 'bout those Red Sawks????? Man, George is lining
    up for his World Series tickets as I write. Hey George, maybe you can
    frame them and hang them next to your Ruins Stanley Cup tickets in your
    bathroom.
    
    Get this season over with so the Whalers can bow out in 4 and let's hit
    the golf course!

130.8back at ya, Jer....ASDG::MCNAMARAstrange visitor......Tue Mar 04 1997 09:498
    ...now that's the most intelligent thing you've said in a while there,
    Jerry.....can't wait to hit the golf course!!!!
    
    and last I heard it was 1997....or am I halucinating again????
    Is it really 1966?  That was the last time the B's have been this
    friggin bad....

130.9DONVAN::R_PLOURDETue Mar 04 1997 12:3523
    
    
    Last night hte Bruins gave up more odd man rushes in the first 2
    periods than most teams give up all year! The Leafs had clean
    breakaways, 2on0's, 2on1's, you name it... Good thing they were the 
    leaf's otherwise the score would've been much worse. 
    
    As for Carey's performance... I think he made a few good saves. I think
    he was shaky over all and probably scared seeing the kind of help he 
    can expect from this team. 
    
    As for the other 2 no-names... that's what they are.. I don't need to
    wait I think the B's got screwed and 2 years from now these guys will 
    still be fighting to even make any big club while Ranford and Oates 
    at a minimum will still be looked at as being in the league elite. 
    
    Stupid trade for stupid management and stupid fans for not demanding
    more. 
    
    This team has no defense, no offense and no chance.

    Just checking in to see what the opinions are in regards to the two
    new wingers...  
    
    RP's note sums it up nicely. I've seen enough already...
