@bretthoward_ @OnlyBruinsPod Gotta keep Pasta and Geekie together. Most goals they scored in a long time in one game. That’s keeping Pasta off the scoring sheet as well. They where real good when winning.

Mittelstadt - Zacha - Arvidsson Khusnutdinov - Minten - Pastrnak Hagens - Lindholm - Geekie Jeannot - Kuraly - Kastelic these lines give you the most balanced lineup heading into the playoffs #NHLBruins | @OnlyBruinsPod

I watched him play against Amerks Saturday night and I have to say I was more impressed with his defensive game. Didn’t realize how good a 2 way player he was. His poke checking and ability to stop progress of plays was quite good. His speed is recognizable. He was the best player on the ice. That was evident.

@_TyAnderson @bigjimmurray But will he get back on D?

Bruins sign James Hagens

I watched him play Rochester Saturday night. He absolutely was the best player on the ice. Sabres have decent talent in AHL. He is gonna be good! Plus Hagens ignored every old dude waving things to sign on way to bus and went right to my 12 year old daughter to sign her Bruins flag. Major bonus points!!!!

What does Felger think of James Hagens? "I think that kid is going to suck." @FelgerAndMazz

@_TyAnderson Is there no difference from College to AHL? Can’t hurt to keep him in what should be a deeper playoff run for Providence.

These are the games that truly make you go who gives a damn if James Hagens turns the puck over because the rest of the roster already does it like 30 times a game

@BruinsNetwork I was at this game. Hagens best player on ice for sure!!

Matt Poitras (No. 21 in white) and James Hagens (No. 12 in white) show off their skills for Providence during OT. Good takeaway, patience and escaping moves from Poitras to establish the zone. Hagens with excellent skating, board position and transitional capabilities. #NHLBruins

@shauseth The U.S. main bomber the B52 is 60 years old…..It’s actually getting upgraded to still be our main bomber another 30 years. Think of that.

how did we do this 57 yrs ago

@Goosey1994 What has Reichel done to earn his spot??

Side note, anyone else willing to acknowledge that its time to give Hagens his opportunity with the constant line juggling? Hagens-Minten-Pasta Mittlestadt-Zacha-Arvidsson Reichel-Lindholm-Geekie Jeannot-Marat-Kast #NHLbruins

@985TheSportsHub @toucherandhardy Saw him in Rochester on Saturday night. He was the best player on the ice. Fast, crisp passes and a very good 2 way player. Huge upgrade from Reichel!! Do it now!!

From @toucherandhardy: With the Bruins recent struggles, is it time to call up Hagens?

@BenDover4life @BizNasty2point0 When was the last Flyers Stanley Cup? What a trash organization.

@Conlotim @BizNasty2point0 Cry harder loser

Flyers were prepared and played an incredible game. Well coached, eh? Goodnight Philly. 🧡

Yes. I actually watched him play in Rochester last night. He was the best player on the ice for sure. His passes hit sharply on the tape consistently. He played center and took face offs. Played the point on the power play and on the wing. His defensive play is very good. If Poitras wasn’t offside in OT on a 2 on 1 he was in alone with a great scoring chance. He is definitely an upgrade from Reichel. Having said that. I wouldn’t have him play with this team. It’s not a good team, goaltending has saved them. They are a bunch of frauds. Sturm is a terrible coach.

Hagens has 1 goal in 6 AHL games. LOL. How is that going to help this Bruins team? Reichel had same amount of AHL points Hagens does right now in half as many games in Prov. People need to come back down to reality. Have you actually watched him play? Hagens clearly isn't ready

I watched him in Rochester last night. He definitely was the best player on the ice. I was very impressed with his defense. He took draws an center on Power play. He was on the point on PP as well. Very versatile. In OT he was scorching up the right side with Poitras on the left for a 2on 1. Poitras had a terrible offsides. Blew a great chance. He assisted on their only goal. I am all for him playing out season in AHL. He is alread establishing himself as a part of this team. Great to see. Bonus was my 12 year old daughter waited outside the Bruins bus for autographs. Hagens walked out and saw my daughter among the old guys wanting signatures on cards. He went right to her and signed her Bruins flag. Many players signed for her. Lots of great guys on this team. She was on cloud 9!!

I initially had James Hagens playing 3-5 games in Providence before signing him to his ELC just to gauge his readiness. Hagens has played 6 games totaling 1 Goal and 3 Assists +/- of -1… If the #NHLBruins offense continues to fall flat today you gotta make the call…it’s time

@leo_ferrulli @_TyAnderson Just saw him last night in Rochester. What are they waiting for? Very impressive.

@_TyAnderson There’s a kid in Prov that can help.

Bruins offense in their 6 regulation losses since the Olympic break: 1 goal 3 goals 2 goals 2 goals 1 goal 1 goal Power play a combined 2-for-20 in those six games.

@_TyAnderson Mostly from Zacha, Arvidsson and Middlestat……Yikes!

Saw someone in Rochester who might help….Assisted on their only goal. Plays great defense as well. Was too fast for Poitras who was called offside in OT on a two on one. Bonus is he exited the arena and went right to my 12yr old daughter to sign her Bruins flag! Priority was the kids then to the bus!! Great Pro!!

Understood, but I am sorry, I cannot get myself to blame the goalie when the team has one goal of offensive support and a comically low amount of shots in the third period.

Yeah saw Hagens in Rochester tonight. He assisted on their only goal. Great 2 way player. If Poitras could have kept up with him over the blue line he would have been in alone for potential winner. Plus! He exited the arena and went right to my daughter to sign her Bruins flag! He prioritized the kids!! Great person!

Final.

Just saw him play against Rochester tonight. He is awesome! Assisted on their only goal. Great 2 way player. Was about to go in alone in OT flying over the blue line when Poitras was called offside !! Amerks scored right after. Bonus was my 12 year old daughter wanted autographs as players exited to their bus. Hagens walked out swarmed by many and he went right to my daughter. He ignored all the old guys waving crap to sign. He signed her Bruins flag and 2 other kids stuff then went on the bus. Great kid!

@NHLBruins Bring Hagens up set a wake up call, if he performs keep him up

@subhapindiproli @jenrenee It’s their sound though. No one sounds like them…..

@jenrenee As a music producer I can say their music sounds the same. Same old riffs. Nothing refreshing.

No one actually likes U2. They’ve just been forced on us for 50 years. Yes. 50.

@Foldedspace @jenrenee Agreed. I feel their best album.

@jenrenee Great album

@citchmook That only means one thing. Early exit. That’s how it works in NHL. History shows that.

Colorado hasn't moved from the top spot in all power rankings since opening night. Incredible season. Avalanche fans are blessed.
