The Islanders dropped the Bruins 4-1. The game in toto was much closer than the score reveals, well, until the Bruins fell apart in the third period when the Isles scored 3 unanswered goals. Well, one of them was an empty net. And yes, two of the goals were by the usual suspects, JG Pageau and Mathew Barzal.
I don’t really want to talk about the game. Barry Trotz has Brice Cassidy’s number. No matter what, he seems to out coach him.
The Bruins next face the Senators in Ottawa (again!) on Saturday night.
Happy Weekend!
Morning all. Yay Friday!
Just got off the phone with my brother Dan. Says he called out of work today… told his supervisor that he had a medical emergency…. “What’s up? “says the boss…. Dan:” I woke up with an erection and i’m trapped between the mattress and the ceiling. ” Okay, Dan i have to go now… Effing guy kills me. I asked Jo if any of her employees ever had an excuse like that. Jo says no… nobody ever called in with that excuse… my brother \_0_/
Ha! Got to give his credit for creativity!
Good morning,
Ugh, the Isles are in disarray and yet… Pageau would be a great aquisition for the Bs, if only so he wouldn’t score against them…. every time.
Planned to go boating in CT today, but worried about ice jams in the narrow creek we like… much of it can not be scouted… too far from roads or trails. Discretion is the better part of valor, i’ve heard. Either a wider river or Jo and i will do other things
Trade rumors abound right now. Don’t believe ’em
I heard from Elliottte Freedman that Claude Giroux was being traded to the Penguins for Brian Boyle, even-up!

WTF? The Bruins couldn’t do better than that?
Oh, you got me.
Mad River is wicked high this morning! Lot of snow melted at once yesterday. A pretty good sized pond formed in the field behind my apartment. Could probably have a fun game of pond hockey!
Hmmm
JG Pageau scored against the Bruins? You don’t say. Sign him already!
Red storm warnings across all of England today – danger to life! It’s really blowing, I’ll be relieved if all the fence panels survive …
Ok, that’s one fence panel down so far. Glad we got that half-rotten old tree taken away!
Our house was actually shaking in the wind last night. Not sure how Jo managed to sleep, bug i layed awake waiting for our roof to fly away. I keep a portable metal table in the front yard for work… it was in the road this morning.
Jeez! Lot of storms lately. Britain has been hit by three in the last month, though this is the first one that has reached this far south.
Woke up yesterday to see lots of stuff scattered around. This morning wasn’t as bad – just some sticks here & there.
I was wondering you were getting the weather where you are. Stay safe and don’t end up in Munchkin Land!
Aunty Em! Aunty Em!
