Was that a nice goal by Geekie? Yes

Was that a goal that Jarry could have stopped to give his team a huge lift? Yes

Sums up Jarry's play most of the season. Can't make a huge save when needed.

He’s been deep all night in his crease since he came in. Shows a total lack of confidence.

He must have a high “care level”. Because he has more ice time than Bunting and Rakell, the same as Geno and only about 90 seconds less than Sid. Real good management.

Slight correction here with all due respect.

Sums up Jarry's play most of his career.

That really is Jarry - the weak link, especially mentally.

This game is what a playoff game would look like. Compete well but make a few mistakes and lose by a goal or two. Probably a 4 game sweep.

Tough to expect this team to go on a point streak like this and every team above us to tank like they have. Nashville is playing to avoid the central division in the wild card so they still have something to play for next game which is not good.

Dubas has his work cut out for him this off-season. Start by firing the coaching staff. Then, open the windows in the offices and let the stale air out.

Can’t give up 11 goals in 2 home games this time of the season and expect to get anything good from it.

Bunting one of the few guys who had a decent effort tonight.
Guy is a solid player.

Is he really worth 10 million? I think not. If the PP was even in the top half ...maybe.

The PP being garbage isn’t on any of the players. They are doing what they are told because they are professionals.

And Malkin out here after the 4th goal trying to stick handle through the whole Bruins team. Some things never change.
