<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bruinsbeatz</b></div><div>I probably wouldn’t have a problem with Nosek with Foligno and Lazar were more physical but when you have a fourth line that doesn’t provide the physical play that the Bruins have always had on that line. The 4th line in the past has been an physical energy line that keeps the game in check and currently it’s just a dump and chase and do nothing line. Buy out Foligno let lazar walk and get 2 guys who bring that identity back to that line and then ya I probably don’t have a problem with Nosek.</div></div>

Lazar and Foligno are #1-2 respectively for hit leaders on the team. You’re wrong about that 4th line not being physical. They’re playing to their identity perfectly fine

Honestly this team isn’t any tougher than the one now.

Anyway, I’m a firm believer the reason why BOS has looked so lifeless is due to the fans. Every little hit, goal, penalty, etc. they get extremely loud, and with a crowd that engaged to the game carries huge momentum for the home team. That’s why there’s a saying that a series is never over until you lose at home. Momentum is a hell of a drug, that’s why the Canes look like they’re playing with a kind of swagger. Best way to beat that is scoring early and shutting the crowd up, but BOS hasn’t done that.

Hopefully the fans in BOS can resonate that same energy and swing the momentum. I’ll gladly eat my words but that’s my takeaway why this series looks so lopsided when really it shouldn’t.

Also I think Butch has got to go with Sway just to change something up. Forward group is fine and obvi Reilly subs in for Lindy

I don't mind this deal if an extension is in place. Sweeney has to be looking at all these teams in the Atlantic making moves and not just sit back and watch maybe Bergy's last playoff run go to waste. The market was set for top4 LD after that Chiarot deal. Sure it hurts that Vaak is going the other way considering he was just starting to make the jump to the NHL but he has always had injury problems, specifically concussion issues. At least Lindholm is considered an established top pairing Dman, something that I couldn't see Vaak become because of his light size. Also got rid of Moore's cap which is a plus. Voted Anaheim because that's a very good return, sellers are usually always going to win at the deadline. Also kept Lysell, Lohrei and the 2023 1st which is what I've been saying should be untouchables. Thank God
