Bruins Get Embarrassed by Winnipeg | The Skate Pod, Ep. 379

[@esh1877]

Jets fan from Wpg here. I like your show/format etc.

[@ComicBookRadio]

5:30 the second Jet goal was horrendous on the part of the B's. Total misread by the team. Jets put on a clinic and capitalized on every tiny mistake the Bruins made.

[@coachd13]

Oesterle - 21:53 in an 8 to 1 loss, he was even..... was the only Dman who wasnt a negative. He had the most ice time by a dman.....

[@ComicBookRadio]

That was... an interesting game. Bruins looked completely flat out there... men versus boys. Worse than the Canes game under Monty... and that one was tough to watch. This road trip is going to set the tone for the team for the rest of the year. Hopefully they'll at least be .500 on it...

[@azura2674]

Really good show. Jets fan trying to listen more to local shows around the league. Very balanced, good analysis.

[@curiousbrowza]

Pardon me for being overly concise, but Swayman's quality start percentage (QS%) is way the **** down. And when one is paid a premium to be that guy, a few of those bad games might have been better; and winning at least a few games because of superb goal-tending is not a miracle. 🤔🤨

[@thestigg]

very fair and good analysis.

[@azura2674]

One comment on Swayman. The history of player, let alone goalies, missing training camp as RFA and then having a very disappointing season is long and distinguished. I’d be concerned that he his season is going to be a struggle for him, which is going to put the playoffs at serious risk. Can’t bench a 8.25M player, but he’s not making the saves the Bs need.

[@danikasmith5487]

Jets fan here. Didn't really care about the gustavson fight until the couple shots on the ground. Was confused when gusbus was the one fighting and it showed that he never fights. 1 tapped. But aye tough game sorry yall.

[@georgemcelroy3058]

The Bruins should have made Swayman sit out this season until he came down to a reasonable number, which now looks like it should be the League minimum.

[@BrickTop06]

The Zadorov slow, deliberate approach to the oldee tymee looking fight was comically hilarious and gave me an lol after a horrific game.

[@user-mf4pl8tl9z]

Lol, yeah that was nutty.

[@joegaspari8153]

What did the front office accomplish with the signings and trades made in the off season?

[@bruins7708]

Swayman never should have got that contract,shoulda traded him , this team is playing like garbage start the trade ticker

[@curiousbrowza]

When he was negotiating whilst not properly getting ready for the season, he was not even concerned about taking the load. In fact, he rather trivialised it, which is disrespectful. And he wanted more than the guy who only allowed 1 goal last night..another reason why the WIN fans are digging in on him. And now Swayman is claiming that he can save all of those..like he can take the load. Is this a generational thing because I've seen this in the workplace, as well. They claim they can do a job to get the position/salary and then require someone else to do it for them. Is that being taught in the business schools or something? 🤔

[@gregrose6915]

Tuned out after the 2nd period. This team is a total shit show. And Lindholm and Swayman are at the tip of the spear.

[@georgemcelroy3058]

Brian, "Things Snowballed", until Winnipeg was able to build their "Snowman" (Bridgette). Nice podcast about a terrible game.

[@JasonBurke88]

They hve to keep finding new ways to talk about the same issues must get boring for them don’t envy them 😂 appreciate th e grind guys 💪

[@johnpeters3288]

wish Fred brought that same energy to Matthew Tkachuk in the first game of the year or Bennett in the playoffs last year.

[@user-mf4pl8tl9z]

For real.

[@Outlaw28516]

Bruins should healthy scratch swayman and bring up Dipetro see if that changes anything for swayman. "Swiss cheese Swayman" going forward should be a backup.

[@johnnybq2]

Just to piss everyone off they'll play Swayman back to back... he's not a full-time pro goalie, he never was. Sorry about the money your GM wasted.

[@Boudica234]

That stunt by Frédéric was a punk move. First he picks a guy who NEVER had an NHL fight. Even worse, after he knocked the kid flat he landed 2 big shots while the kid lied there defenseless. He needed further medical attention after the game. Hope u are proud of yourself Trent. This 60 yr old lifelong Bruins fan hopes that karma comes for u.

[@curiousbrowza]

They learned that one from FLA in the playoffs. ;)

[@Boudica234]

@curiousbrowza it's a scumbag move no matter who does it. Real fighters back off after they level a guy like that.

[@safetygirl53]

Gustafson needed stitches and has a concussion. What a tough guy.

[@curiousbrowza]

@@safetygirl53 Hockey is a rough sport. If ya can't stand the heat, get back in the shades. Sayin'...

[@joegaspari8153]

@@curiousbrowza really?

[@James-p8u]

Do you mean the shot that went in from behind the net ? Yea, Bad goal, definitely

[@Bavarianlunches]

Maybe Freddy shouldn't have dropped the gloves with Gustafsson, but Gustafsson shouldn't have agreed to fight Freddy. Freddy doesn't drop the gloves with anyone who isn't willing, so if Gustafsson didn't want to fight someone as experienced as Freddy, he should have said he doesn't want to fight.

[@curiousbrowza]

Does WIN expect to dance through the playoffs without a fight or two or three? If they play FLA, be prepared for their captain and best players to be targeted. Maurice calls it "violence with grace".

[@Bavarianlunches]

@curiousbrowza exactly. And if Freddy was willing to fight people who aren't willing, Matthew Tkachuk would have his ass handed to him every time the Bruins play the Panthers.

[@billo6938]

Freddy doesn't drop the gloves with anyone who isn't willing? Ovechkin?

[@Bavarianlunches]

@@billo6938 you're comparing a veteran player who got the upper hand in that situation and there was no fight to this situation? Ovechkin hit Freddy in the nuts and got a spearing penalty and that was that. It's nothing like this.

[@billo6938]

@@Bavarianlunches You wrote "Freddy doesn't drop the gloves with anyone who isn't willing...". I gave you an example to refute your statement.

[@stingerfan30]

I wish they would either sit or trade Frederic, like a few other players he is non excitant

[@billo6938]

The "C" needs to be removed from Marchand's jersey.

[@seanmichael109]

The bipolar bruins are not worth paying the hard earned money to watch.
