00:00Keith, I thought the Bruins won at home.
00:01What the heck?
00:01They win always at home.
00:02I don't know what happened there.
00:03That's not part of the formula for them staying in the playoffs.
00:07They need to win these home games because they have more road games
00:09than home games the rest of the way.
00:11We are down to, what, 17 regular season games left for the Bruins.
00:16They are one point up in the holding on to that last wild card spot.
00:20They're one point up on Columbus.
00:23Yeah, I guess we're just going to be eyeballing Columbus.
00:25They're also one point back in Detroit,
00:27so it's not like they can't catch Detroit.
00:28No, but they were starting to make it.
00:30Look, I mean, you can go through fits and starts.
00:32You can make up room on Detroit.
00:34They're not that far behind Montreal, but Columbus is right there.
00:38There's two more games.
00:39Second to last game of the year is against Columbus.
00:42So, yeah, I don't know.
00:43I didn't expect that one last night.
00:45They're bad on the road.
00:46Four out of their next five are on the road.
00:48I don't love that.
00:49So, no, I don't like where this is trending.
00:51It's the most concerned I've been about their chances of making
00:55the Stanley Cup playoffs in a while.
00:57I've been pretty confident, and I will go back to the trade deadline
01:01and say Sweeney effed it up by not doing it.
01:03For everybody who said, no, don't do it, sell or sit on your hands,
01:07what's the point of making the playoffs?
01:09You guys can't cry about missing the playoffs if this team misses it.
01:12I can't because I wanted Sweeney to do something.
01:14He did nothing, which I think was offensive.
01:17I'd be offended if I were the Morgan Geekies and guys like that
01:20who he singled out before the trade deadline.
01:23And everyone says, oh, well, look at how they played against Nashville
01:26the night before the trade deadline.
01:27And how could you invest in that team?
01:29Maybe they knew they weren't going to invest,
01:31and that's why they came out and laid a stink bomb.
01:33Did you ever think about that?
01:34A little flat.
01:34Maybe they got wind that they weren't doing anything,
01:37and they weren't close to anything,
01:38and they went out and laid a stink bomb in Nashville.
01:41Maybe it's the other way around.
01:42Maybe it's not Sweeney was waiting for them to see how they played
01:45going into the deadline.
01:46Maybe they knew, and that's why they played like crap.
01:48So to me, that's frustrating.
01:51The trade deadline will remain frustrating if they miss the playoffs,
01:53and I'm concerned now, after last night's results
01:56and the road games looming, they might.
