00:00uh bruins lose last night keith they do get a point they score goals they scored a whole bunch
00:04of goals i'll take that you want to start with i guess the good from the game yeah i mean
00:09or
00:09geeky or the not so good jeremy swayman getting the hook yeah let's do let's do the good first
00:14there's probably a little bit more with the with the bad but i think with the good we highlighted
00:18morgan geeky just kind of disappearing for 20 games or so he's like one goal in a month and a
00:25half two months like it's been such a long drought for a guy who at one point was leading the
00:29league
00:29and goal scoring and was on pace for 55 goals it kind of just stuck at 34 for the longest
00:36time
00:37and the fact that right before the playoff starts he got unlocked a little bit had a hat trick great
00:41like like really good news like hopefully he can uh provide some scoring he's capable of it he had
00:47like what was it like 11 goal month earlier in the year or 13 something like that it was like
00:51a crazy
00:51month that he had saving him up for the stanley cup playoffs you know what fine yeah because they're
00:55gonna make the playoffs they are they need to wake up a little bit that point helped them a lot
00:59oh
01:00the point was big for making the playoffs last night i mean two points would have been better but that
01:03point helped a lot it is one of the best teams uh in hockey carolina i know it's the team
01:08that you
01:09would at least want to face correct to me it's still tampa but you could see why it would be
01:13carolina
01:13i think they're both pretty good choices in that regard uh so yeah that morgan geeky score the team
01:19scoring right they had three straight games where they only scored one goal in each of those games
01:23floodgates opened up you're like all right as good as the goaltending might be they're going to need
01:26to score more goals similar like the red socks offense and so that was good they put five goals
01:30on the board and let me let me add another one they also came back like they're down five three
01:35yep and they battle back into the game i mean look i mean if you want to play that game
01:39too they were
01:40down then they were up three two they blew that lead but they came back to get the point the
01:44first
01:45period wild wild yeah and you know you asked me before we got off the air yesterday you're like would
01:49you take over two and a half games uh goals i'm like hell no not against carolina
01:53and of course an explosion of goals as it it happens to be so no morgan geeky we said this
01:58a few days ago you doubt hockey jones and then hockey keith at your own risk to get morgan geeky
02:04going it's probably not gonna be on the third line it's probably gonna be with poster knock who he's
02:07always had good chemistry with and they get him back with poster knock and what do you know a game
02:11later he's got a hat trick so i don't think that's a coincidence i think morgan geeky's production
02:17early on in the year and late last year is probably more a product of who he's playing with
02:21than his individual brilliance but i think that's probably best so now you have a vacancy on the
02:26third line and what do you do with it is it alex steves i don't even know the guy's name
02:30yeah yeah
02:31steves yeah we've seen him before yeah steve plural is out there on that line you also call him not
02:36james okay and so this is why i don't get it between like esamon and steves i get steves in
02:43there
02:43right cool like whoever you have out there i don't get it i don't get why you want to have
02:47those guys out
02:48there and not hagan's and not just see but if you're telling me he's not ready you're telling
02:52me he's not ready but it's like a revolving door on that third line and now you have geeky back
02:56with
02:56poster knock and what do you know at work try to get some scoring depth going and all of a
03:00sudden
03:00now i think you are a team that can go on a run although you're gonna need your goalie yeah
03:04that's
03:04the downside and i don't think all five goals are on swayman last night like that fifth one what the
03:09hell is he supposed to do like he had no help on the taylor hall goal so what's he supposed
03:13to do
03:13there the second goal was bad keandre miller uh i didn't like the fourth goal either i'm trying to
03:18remember who that was third goal was a power play whoever had the fourth goal carry a maybe whoever
03:23had the fourth goal i didn't love that one the second one i thought was super soft from keandre
03:27miller so i don't know i didn't think swayman was great last night and sturm woke the team up by
03:32pulling him yeah and corpus allo came in and played his tail off the core was good game a chance
03:37the
03:37corpse was great he stopped everything the corpse had the big save on aho going post to post uh
03:42whatever final five minutes of the game whatever it was goalie controversy no because court like
03:46there isn't but corpse has played pretty well and like he's had some games where they've thrown him
03:51like the buffalo game where they've thrown him some good teams and he's won those games he's played
03:56pretty well and then in this one he went right in there so this is high scoring shootout of a
04:00game
04:01and they throw the corpse in he had like what 15 straight saves or whatever it was up until the
04:05game winner in overtime so he was good swayman yeah not ideal the numbers are going to look a little
04:11bit worse there's plenty of defenders of swayman that'll that'll point out all those goals they
04:14might even give him another one like well hey hang on a minute he wasn't that bad carolina's really
04:18good the defense needs to be better in front of them but if they're gonna have any chance in the
04:22playoffs swayman's gonna have to be like fantastic can't be given up soft goals from out by the blue
04:27line uh i know mark in medford agrees hello mark yeah swayman was swiss cheese last night i'm sorry
04:33i mean yeah there was two goals that he probably wish he had back but geeky what a way to
04:40get off
04:40the snide with a freaking hat trick um but there's one thing that's bothering me guys every time they
04:46turn the puck over in the offensive zone there's always a defenseman stuck in there and there's
04:52always only one defenseman back what the hell is nikita zadorov doing in the zone he's gonna be a
04:58stay at home on the blue line guy okay so hang on is that a zadorov is that a zadorov
05:04problem or is
05:04that a storm like systems problem in your mind no i think i think it's part of the system problem
05:09because he has every defenseman doing it you gotta pick and choose which defenseman you want to do
05:13that so i look i don't disagree with that i don't need zadorov or you know uh aspero or guys
05:19like that
05:20i don't need them up in the offensive zone if you're telling me that's a systems thing then fine
05:23for marco stern uh overall i think stern's been good i had minimal criticism for him i think even
05:28sparked the team by pulling swayman last night and it wasn't all swayman's fault i i disagree with
05:33mark and medford but two of those goals were bad yeah last night and especially the keandre miller
05:38one real quick we always point out like the uh you know with just a few games to go the
05:42standings and
05:43who they could play in the playoffs i don't even notice this but montreal has now pulled even with
05:48buffalo and tampa they all have 102 points so i mean you're saying bruins montreal it could be
05:55so i would rather that than tampa i'd rather that than tampa i would rather that than carolina
06:00another buffalo than uh buffalo's still but this is proven buffalo we all we all saw right through
06:06buffalo buffalo's getting picked off by whoever they get in the first round so i yeah montreal that's
06:10a that's a better right there they all have the same number of points in the same number of games
06:14played that's a better result i think yeah uh and it obviously be more of a talker and more
06:18fun and i think that'd be worth rooting for for sure 617-779-793
