If not for Tim Thomas I'd hate to think where the Bruins would be right now. Last night was a perfect example. The Caps are imploding as a team right now, Semin is on the shelf and their goaltending is AHL at best. They still dominated 41 minutes of that game. The first 19 was all Boston but the rest was so bad that if Thomas didn't save them over and over, especially the third period, the Caps would have easily come back and won.

Caps dominated the physical especially along the half wall in the offense zone and forced Boston to just dump most of the game. Bruins, as usual, took their foot off the pedal as soon as things started going good and couldn't get back in it. Thank you Timmy.

TT has saved this team too many times and now the team needs to save him.

niftybear, your right on.TT'S accrobatics (sp?) in net has been and still is the story of the bruins this season. A one man show. Just like last year you go up by three goals and let the goaltender play the rest of the game. How long TT can maintain is anybodys guess. Just hope that there is a leader on the horizon for this team to take the burdon off TT. 26-2 SHOTS IN THE THIRD PERIOD IS WAY WAY TO LOPSIDED.
COACH TAKE NOTICE!!!!!!!
Rip the C off of Chara!  

The 1st 10-15 games of this season -- B's had a killer instinct. Up by a couple goals and they kept pounding away and continued to pinch in on D and keeping the puck in the zone. Now -- it's score a couple - back out of the zone and hold on for dear life. Good teams generally don't change their style based on the score.
