Lightning @ Bruins: Game 5


The Bruins had the Lightning beat. Up 3-0 about to be up 3-1 in the series heading back to Boston, then they decided to shit the bed. We have seen this so many times it makes me sick to think about, but this team has turned it around so many times that you just can't give up on them.

I don't know for sure, but I don't see Roloson being between the pipes for Tampa. He looked so shaky, and all of this is terrible news for the Bruins. Smith looked really good, he is really big, and we all know it just takes a hot goalie. Saying that, the Bruins also didn't pressure him, and the effort they gave after the 1st period was laughable at best.

Kaberle is killing the Bruins. He doesn't battle in the corners, he's made no difference on the powerplay, and he makes costly turnovers seemingly every game. It's unacceptable, and he has to be one of the biggest bust pickups for the Bruins ever. It's not just Kaberle with the silly turnovers, he just does it the most, so he stands out.

If Boston doesn't turnover the puck, they will win this series. I think they fix their mistakes, because that's what they have done all season.

Bruins win 4-3 (OT)
Player of the Game: Bergeron
Game starts at 8pm
