Barnum and Bailey pulled out of town two weeks ago but left the JUGGLER behind

Seems that the circus left town and forgot to pack the juggler. Yup the cure all for the Bruin's is going to be to start juggling lines on a nightly basis. Not that I do not agree with mixing it up (both line wise and in the corners that is) But Dave Lewis has got to give his forwards a chance to gel. The team had a solid effort against the Sens last week, and I would have liked to see them go at it with the same line up and see if they can not produce another couple of goals. Boston had several chances that missed which could easily be chalked up as timing issues. You will never get your timing down if you don't play with the same guys. But then again I'm not the coach, nor am I even qualified to act as such.

Thursdays line up will include Kessel centering Axelson and Murray. The second line will see Savard on the left wing with Bergeron in the middle and Boyes on the right. There seems to be no change in the third and fourth lines from Saturday, and the defensive pairings will be a game day decision based on Alberts return or not. (I would go with not, Dempsey seems to be playing well above managements expectations and should be given another chance to show what he's got under the hood)

My next post will follow the game on Thursday.
Have I mentioned that I HATE THIS TWO GAMES PER WEEK AND ALWAYS ON THURSDAY AND SATURDAY! GOD DAM IT THOSE TV NIGHTS ARE USUALLY GOOD! WHY THE HELL NOT HAVE A TUESDAY NIGHT GAME WHEN THERE ISN'T SHIT ON TV!
Not to mention the fact that this will be the second time we see the Sabres this season and we still have not played everyone in our division. Who the hell makes this schedule anyway? GOOD LORD PEOPLE IT AINT ROCKET SCIENCE! (If it was we could always give the job to Joe Junuea.
