Game Day: Boston Bruins @ Ottawa Senators, 7:30pm, Fri. Nov. 15, 2013

Does anyone on this team give a Diddle anymore? WTF happened to them?

Rock bottom?

No confidence or structure. They came out and looked scared, almost like they were waiting for something bad to happen, and once the Bruins got the goal they have been horrible. They so badly need the next goal because if the Bruins get it to 3-0 this could make the Philly game look close.

Yeah, I doubt highly they score on Rask tonight.

Spezza looks like he is skating better tonight.

EDIT: Not that it could have gotten much worse.

Nice job by Greening on the goal.

We must be watching different games. He's done as a legit threat 5 on 5.

Pardon. 

Marchand is a little piece of garbage. So happy that Potvin skewered him on TV.

Heh.

Almost felt like the Paddock days... ugh...

They gotta get out of this funk. Hopefully the goal sparks them.

C'mon boys! You're better than this!

Yeah, I'm really surprised.

You're correct.

Check your PVR. You must be watching an old game. Not saying this is Vintage Spezza but he is hustling out there, taking pucks away, winning face-offs.

Gryba is standing around. Cowen keeps overcommitting going for the big hit. Anderson is letting the first 2 goals in. Team is playing like they expect it. Karlsson hasn't done anything Karlsson-esque yet.

Neil and Michalek are tied in goals 1/5th of the way through the season.

Can we blame this on Spezza and Anderson?  Sources say....no.

Anderson no... Spezza...? Questionable because he shows no leadership on the ice, like none. It's bad. As bad as I thought Spezza might be if things didn''t go his way I didn't know it would be this bad.

Aside from him getting physically dominated on the first goal, yah, great period. Did his line even have a shot? I mean is the best people can come up with for Spezza at this point is "well, he's trying, you can tell". haha, has that what it's come down to?

Seriously, what's the biggest difference between last years team and this years? Alfie was the Captain, Spezza is now the captain. This is what a Spezza lead team looks like and until they move on from the guy this is how they will look.

6 shots on net for the Sens.

13 for the B's.
