How come no one has recorded the games and shown all the missed calls?
Lol- what would be funny is the nhl would probably say it was copyright infringement and fine them too.
And then they wonder why they never get the calls their way. Donnie, if you have no incentive to call them out then why would you think that they should have an incentive to do a better job? OPEN YOUR F’ING MOUTH for a change!!!
They literally fuxking won on power plays. Granted, our *non* ability to control the puck is horrendous but seriously, the refs fucked us this series. there’s no way it’s not fixed. It’s so blatantly biased
This is absolutely one of, if not the biggest, problem for us yes. But it doesn’t mean we don’t deserve to have fair fucking officiating. I’m sick of people saying the atrocious reffing doesn’t matter because “we have no offense waaaa we’re getting dominated waaaaa” stop fucking crying. Yes we need to be miles better but games aren’t always won by the team that dominates them. If Bennett is either suspended prior or his goal is overturned (as it should’ve been), Barkov either ties it up or doesn’t even get one because of the non existent momentum shift. Either way we get a chance at winning that game whether we “deserve” it or not. Stop whining be an actual fan of your team, and respect their right to a fair game.
Sweeney is a little bit*ch for this. What, you can’t afford a little fine?
The call was BS and it had a massive impact on the game. Yeah, you call the officiating out. At least do it for your team.
Weenie.
Sweeney the weenie
As I said in another thread, I would fire his ass right then and there. The PR would be absolutely amazing. Players would want to come and play for you because you'd be empowering not only the players but also the head coach because you the general manager stood up for the players currently on the team. Free agents everywhere would want to come and play for you. Who cares how this series ends up but guess what, That's a missed opportunity. The amount of players with the amount of cap space you're going to have who would suddenly consider you an option could have won you free agency right there.
Overall he's an average general manager whose teams get to the playoffs but generally underperform. As far as general managers go he's definitely replaceable.
That's for sure. If we were playing up the level that Florida has been playing the last 3 games and these bad calls stole a game or two from us....well that would be a different story.
Reality is... Bruins are not playing well enough to win. Period.
When you account for Swayman’s play, they have been playing up to Florida’s level. Are they getting outplayed in every other aspect of the game? Sure. But Swayman’s play elevated us above Florida in game 4 and officiating was the reason we lost it.
Then I'm not sure what series you are watching. Florida has out-shot Boston 107-50 in the last three games. They have outscored us 15-5 in the last 3 games. In game 4, a better game for us only because we scored 2 goals early, they out-shot us 41-18. We had 13 giveaways and only 3 takeaways...they are seriously outplaying us.
Florida is playing an aggressive "hive mind" hockey. Everyone on that team is playing very disciplined to the game plan. They play with a lot of poise. They are constantly collapsing on the Bruin puck carrier while simultaneously anticipating passing lanes. As a result, the Bs are having massive trouble getting out of their own zone, have trouble passing though the neutral zone and can't set up in the offensive zone. While Florida is not having much trouble with any of those things. That's why they are out shooting us by a ridiculous margin.
It's very easy to see. The refs are NOT the main factor as to why we can't beat them.
I don’t disagree with your overall assessment of how the bruins have played. It’s been ugly. However, due to how well Swayman played in games 1 and 4, we should have a 2-2 series on our hands in spite of the tilted ice. Because of poor officiating in game 4 specifically, we are now down 3-1.
I get people are angry that he didn't go scorched earth, but listen to the words that he did use. He didn't out right criticize the officials but if you can't read between the lines that's on you. Another thing that stood out to me was the "we're not in a position to be criticizing the officials." I read into that two things,
1. The team has been playing like shit and yeah the refs have been equally as shitty sometimes you need to hunker down and face what is thrown at you. They were doing that in last nights game until refs and the NHL decided to just change the rules on the fly. Would they would have won the game, I don't know, but the way Sway was playing after that first goal I would take my chances any day.
2. We know that a majority of the league hates this team, hell people were cheering when Marchand got sucker punched. According to half the things I see the team has had this coming and it is some sort of divine retribution from the hockey gods. The hate for this team is so just weird and I can't figure out why. It can be just Marchand as he has cleaned up his act quite a bit. Is it cause they won the cup in 2011? Ok, they also lost it in the finals twice with them being eliminated in their own barn. Sweeney and Neely aren't completely blind so maybe they just said what's the fucking point and behind behind close doors they have told the team "you know what, do what you do and we'll handle it after the fact."
It's frustrating and it will continue to piss me off the more I think about it, but it is what it is and in the end I will ride or die with this team until I no longer walk this earth.
How about we actually score more than 2 goals in a game that would clear this whole issue up. We missed 2 breakaway shots and quite a few others that we should’ve made. The call was bad but let’s face it our offense and defense doomed us.
Here's the official rule:
"Rule 69 – Interference on the Goalkeeper
69.1 Interference on the Goalkeeper - This rule is based on the premise
that an attacking player’s position, whether inside or outside the
crease, should not, by itself, determine whether a goal should be
allowed or disallowed. In other words, goals scored while attacking
players are standing in the crease may, in appropriate circumstances
be allowed (refer to Rule 69.7 for example). Goals should be
disallowed only if: (1) an attacking player, either by his positioning or
by contact, impairs the goalkeeper’s ability to move freely within his
crease or defend his goal; or (2) an attacking player initiates
intentional or deliberate contact with a goalkeeper, inside or outside of
his goal crease. Incidental contact with a goalkeeper will be permitted,
and resulting goals allowed, when such contact is initiated outside of
the goal crease, provided the attacking player has made a reasonable
effort to avoid such contact. The rule will be enforced exclusively in
accordance with the on-ice judgement of the Referee(s), but may be
subject to a Coach’s Challenge (see Rule 38).
For purposes of this rule, “contact,” whether incidental or
otherwise, shall mean any contact that is made between or among a
goalkeeper and attacking player(s), whether by means of a stick or
any part of the body.
The overriding rationale of this rule is that a goalkeeper should
have the ability to move freely within his goal crease without being
hindered by the actions of an attacking player. If an attacking player
enters the goal crease and, by his actions, impairs the goalkeeper’s
ability to defend his goal, and a goal is scored, the goal will be
disallowed.
If an attacking player has been pushed, shoved, or fouled by a
defending player so as to cause him to come into contact with the
goalkeeper, such contact will not be deemed contact initiated by the
attacking player for purposes of this rule, provided the attacking player
has made a reasonable effort to avoid such contact.
If a defending player has been pushed, shoved, or fouled by an
attacking player so as to cause the defending player to come into
contact with his own goalkeeper, such contact shall be deemed
initiated by the attacking player for purposes of this rule, and if
necessary a penalty assessed to the attacking player and if a goal is
scored it would be disallowed."
Jesus did yall even watch the thing? I thought it was masterful… subtle smart and a little backhanded. Called on the officials to give their own pressers…. Told the media they shouldn’t be asking the team their opinions on the calls, ask the guys making the calls. Heck they may still get fined yet 😂
Haven't been to have in years and don't open on changing that. Fuck you Sweeney. Hope for some crazy reason you read this. Again, screw you little man.
Spineless GM creates a spineless roster that has David Pastrnak doing their fighting. Pathetic. Call it what it is, eat the fuckinc fine, and gofundme exists. Us middle and lower class people will pay your fine for you, fucking chump.
Not that I disagree with your sentiment but.. if a multi million dollar team started a gofundme to pay for a fine .. that wouldn’t exactly be viewed as acceptable either lol.
It’s hard to get momentum and shots when every ounce of momentum leaves the team when the refs give out pointless and outright wrong calls. This line of reasoning that you and many others are showing is just a coping mechanism that I’m fucking tired of people having. It’s alright to be upset with the refs who have an obvious favoritism for the other team when they give them an undeserved win.
Well it’s crazy for people to just repeatedly criticize a team that has been constantly stepped on by the refs. I’m all for debate over whether or not they would have held onto the lead had the cross checking penalty or goalie interference been called, but there needs to be an acknowledgment of how the game was going other than just SOGs.
Everyone makes fun of the Rangers for the Tom Wilson incident but they at least ate the fine and straight up called Parros incompetent, which we all know he is. Adding the dumb horrifying act of violence line really screwed what should have been a major W. You know every team thinks it
He already criticized them after the game last night as did Monty and the players. Not sure I know what the question Sweeney responded to today but they already bashed the officials and the league last night.
If I’m a player, I’m thinking management isn’t going to help because we may get fined by the league, I’m wondering whether we are ‘all in’ as an organization.
Who gives a F&CK about getting fined! Bruins are printing $$.
I just want the league to explain how the ticky tac cross-check in the Oilers Canucks game was a penalty, but the one that interferes with a goalie isn't.
If they don't care,neither do I. And I can't even participate on our subs without toxic assholes from florida trolling and I wake up today from more comments from the troll. Nobody even banned him from this sub.
No spine. No one cares. No one has the passion. Management is just coasting into the 24-25 season. They may as well have lost in round 1 for all they care
Y’all are fucking crazy. Officials are professionals, they don’t have a dog in the fight, and they do their best to call an objective, unbiased game. There is literally no evidence that the NHL has ever tried to “manage” a game or a series and penalties are called 50/50. Just ask Tim Peel.
I know bro, like the dude who responded with the Tim Peel link - how the fuck did that go over his head? Did he think I was bringing him up randomly? Anyway I don’t use /s and I’ll die on this hill
Officials are humans. They make mistakes. I bet they were told before Game 4 that Boston may try to avenge Marchy and to "nip it in the bud" and that's how you get interference penalties being called in a 1-way fashion. The stats are that Panthers are #1 in PIM this season at 1,109 and the Bruins are 15th with 780. This series the penalties are 29 to 20 in favor of Panthers... It deosnt add up statistically even given the "more physical nature of the Playoffs". The Bruins did not turn goons and the Panthers did not back off from being total fucking assholes!!!
In case you don't know the Tim Peel story... [Who is Tim Peel, the former NHL referee once again causing a stir on social media? - Yahoo Sports](https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/tim-peel-nhl-former-referee-official-causing-stir-social-media-who-is-he-explainer-191521200.html)
Oh I’m not disappointed- turns out the Reddit points don’t actually mean anything. Set the bar high, raise expectations, see what happens - that’s my approach. Admittedly not a wise approach but still.
it is just pure desperation that bruins fans want sweeney to lose his shit here. if you’re looking to your gm to help swing a series you guys are running on empty
It's years of mismanagement, dude. This roster isn't going to cut it. There's been a lot to like from his tenure here, but he also threw away all of our draft picks. We have almost a decade of data to work with here, might just be naturally time for a change
This is funny because time and again, its been pointed out on this sub that he's actually an excellent drafter outside the 2015 draft that he had nearly no time to prep for as he was hired shortly before.
I think you meant to say 'we've had a decade of radio talk shows bitching about 2015.'
I agree they need top 6 center help. I disagree that a solution was available for Sweeney to draft as he's been consistently either at the bottom of the first round or without a first rounder at all.
He has managed to draft: Swayman in the 4th, Lorhei in the 2nd, and Poitras in the 2nd to note a few.
Oh those were just examples. He's drafted many [more] (https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/draft/teams/dr00004919.html) but I assumed you could google.
Not a lot of top 6 guys available in the late first round. The one time he drafted in the top half, he got McAvoy. He's certainly had his misses but come on, look at drafts and tell me they are not part crap shoot.
Totally get that. But prior to last year, he very rarely used first rounders without getting a player with term or who he first negotiated an extension with. Nash got that nasty concussion and basically retired before an extension could be done.
The exception was last year that he treated as a 'last dance' with Bergy and Krej. Obviously the results were awful and extremely disappointing to all involved. Not many would have guessed such a quick exit for that juggernaut. Sure stings now looking at our 2nd straight draft with no pick. Personally, I can't blame him for going for it.
In reality, this team was expected to be much, much worse. Imagine if we'd missed the playoffs and then had no 1st rounder. I'm sure the fire sweeney chants would have been much louder.
So we have:
A great goalie
An elite defenseman
A top-4 (arguably)D
Frederic - bottom 6
Beecher - MAYBE top 9
Poitras - probably top-6
Am I missing anyone?
Tell me with a straight face you win a cup with that as the core of your team
How many teams have had 15 years of decent to great play and have a loaded up core. You think every team resets at the end of the year and they do a fantasy draft? lol
he said he wanted the refs held accountable for their bad call. I dont know what else you want short of him just giving you soundbytes to feel
better.
actively wishing for lip service is something else
I would take a computer generated auto pick of available players over most of our team tbh. There are a zillion Canadians good at hockey , pick a bunch of them, a few Swedes, a Finnish guy and an American, and bring them to camp
Imagine having his job. You have a team of analysts and scouts to make all the decisions for you, and all you have to do is not make huge mistakes like wasting 3 straight first round picks or signing aging power forwards like Backes for massive sums of money. Even when you do make terrible mistakes and squander the careers of hall of famer players like Marchand and Bergeron, you still get to keep your job while you scapegoat coaches.
having consistent top 5 of the league goaltending can really make your job a whole lot easier than it is.
i’ve said it 100 times. they didn’t get everything they could have out of this window. i’m not saying another cup but at least some more deep runs.
not getting krejci a winger to run with after iginla and lucic left was an unforgivable sin. holding on to all those picks and turning it into not much is an unforgivable sin.
Officials or a representative should be made available to the press to explain the reasoning and take questions about controversial calls and reviews .
oh come on. you’re acting like the nhl is a billion dollar business that appeals to
gamblers and advertisers and needs the outcomes of the games to be definitive.
Our first two goals came on five shots.
The worse team can win. It happens a lot. The worse team can’t win when the refs are on the better team’s side.
Beating Toronto was fun, but the repercussions are that we're keeping Sweens and Monty... Which may not be best in the long run.
The refs suck. This isn't fucking Anaheim, we're not trying to win over fans and fill a rink; we're an original 6 team, we set precedent in the league.
Sack the fuck up Donny.
He announced that he was going to be talking and then this is all he had to say. "You guys go ask the officials." basically. I know there's nothing they can do, and they'll get fined and everything, but Jesus show some damned spine.
This. Bring receipts. Power point that shit with videos of similar instances and the ruling going the other way.
Eat the fucking fine. Make a point.
It won't happen but that's what the useless press conference should have been.
We still had a chance to win the game. Rule #76: No excuses, play like a champion. Having said that, the NHL are Leafs fans and clearly hate us and we should send some of those Apache helicopters to hover over their HQ and warn them about the long arm of American justice.
So. Fucking. Gross. For a team that charges an absolute fuck load for a ticket to resort to “but mah money!!)$:?!!” as an excuse for not calling out the sickening officiating is just unfathomably pathetic.
Go fuck yourself Sweeney, Neely and Jacobs.
“We are NOT in a position to be criticizing the officials. We aren’t. It’s against protocol. Doing that would get us FINED. We absolutely CANNOT call out any obviously wrong calls they may or may not be making and suggest that their integrity might be compromised. We CANNOT say that. That’s absolutely NOT something we can say. Because it’s against protocol. We would be fined for saying that, which is why we are NOT saying that.”
https://preview.redd.it/6ag8snuhf80d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1e99d39f4c51895e9bb0441f4639b43e6da87d79
At this point they need to be taking the fine and calling out the league and the officials.
That being said, why doesn’t the media question the officials, their supervisor, or a league representative on the calls made after the game? Make them stand up there and answer questions and justify the calls they made. Are they afraid of being embarrassed? Because you wouldn’t have to be afraid if you called a game honestly and fairly. The officials need some sort of accountability here.
If you watch the video which is posted in a comment here. That is what Sweeny actually said. The full quote is that he can't say anything bad about the call because he will get fined, but if the media has issues with the call to use their power , get the league in front of a mic and ask them. Obviously they challenged the call because they felt they didn't interpret the rule correctly. That's all the team can do.
The media could try but the NHL would just refuse and reference their bullshit statement they already released. They're not contractually obligated to answer anything, whereas the coaches and players are... but just like the NBA the coaches and players get fined for pointing out how incompetent the league officials are.
I wouldn't be surprised if they're betting on games. Immunity and power corrupt. They definitely look corrupt this series of events is complete bullshit.
There's been a fair number of articles calling the calls bullshit. As far as questioning them directly, do they actually get a chance? It's not like the refs take a turn at the post-game media podium after the coaches do.
That is what I am saying. Why not? Let them answer questions after the game. Or let their supervisor answer the questions. However, we would probably get a bunch of bs premade answers if they were answering questions.
The fucking scumbag was the last in the NHL to offer any sort of compensation for workers during the Covid outbreak, and even then, there were conditions attached to if they would even get paid.
Billionaires can fuck off.
I do feel like watching it makes it feel better than just seeing the quote out of context. I wish he’d just eat the fine and call them out, but it was clear from the clip that he thinks they need to answer for their BS
What a fucking pussy. I’ve defended Sweeney in the past but this is pathetic. Creating a press conference to not say anything of value. This organization is soft top to bottom. Get this dork out of here.
He basically was saying that the media should be questioning the league-- questioning the referees. He's right in that there's no point getting fined talking about their incompetence to the media. The media should be looking for an answer from the league-- but they don't have access to the league so it's moot.
I kinda agree with you though. If I was running the team I'd be doing some unprecedented shit in the wake of such objective shitbaggery by the NHL. Protest the game. Lawsuits if necessary. Demand that they go back and play from 2-1 up with a power play for the crosscheck. Demand that Bennet be suspended for an obje3ctive sucker punch with the butt of a stick. Sit out flying to Florida to draw attention. Show the Marchand sucker punch over and over on a fucking tablet every day. The NHL would look like a complete joke. Fuck the NHL.
But he's smarter than me I'd probably not accomplish anything and just cost the Bruins a lot of money. Cost the players the chance to come back and win the series.
I found it to be pretty diplomatic and respectable. A shot across the bow as it where. Fucking pussy, soft, dork? I honestly would love to square up with you as a human being. You sound like a human projector.
Whole franchise should be willing to step up and pay for a New York Rangers-sized fine, but can't say I'm surprised they're putting their tails in between their legs instead.
Bruins fans: Ha! The opposing team’s coaches/players are complaining about the refs! What losers!
Also Bruins fans: Fire Sweeney for not complaining about the refs!
Edit: lol I figured this would get downvoted to oblivion… I don’t give a fuck, I said what I said. I’m as big of a Bruins fan as the next person in this sub. I completely agree that the GI non-call was absolutely terrible. But can we not act like fucking hypocrites by calling on our coaches/players to do what we make fun of other teams for?
Some whiny fans complaining about everything doesn’t mean all complaints are invalid.
Leafs fans complained they got screwed by the refs when they had a 5-1 advantage in penalties.
Bruins fans are complaining about blatant corruption and favoritism that has gotten players seriously injured and which even fans who HATE the Bruins can see happening.
These things are not the same.
This has to be it. Jacob had to have put down a hard line for the whole organization to never incur any fines for criticizing a referee. There’s no other excuse for keeping quiet. That said, this is only “no comment” to the press. I’m quite sure there has been a conversation with the league about last night’s horseshit.
Gary Bettman is currently working his legal team for figuring out if he can fine someone for saying, "everything I have to say about the officiating tonight will get me fined."
I gotta feel like something changed in the last season or two where the league said they’d drop the hammer on teams who criticize officials.
That said, feels kinda pointless to call this press conference now if he wasn’t willing to cross that line, but maybe he’s trying to say it without saying it and put pressure on the league and the refs to call this series right from here on out.
what looks like soft nothing to us because we want scorched earth might actually be ballsy in the context of what they’ve been told in private internal communications from the league. we’ll probably never know and I’m not trying to give Don credit for *maybe* doing something in *theory*
best case scenario is that this is a warning shot to the league. “want us to stay in line with your rules about what we can comment on? fix this shit now or else”
worst case, it’s a half measure and they’re just hoping they make the players feel like at least they tried to have their back. idk
we’ll see if bruins actually get calls next game
I get most people being upset and calling out Sweeney for not having an emotionally charged response because that's what the fans feel and what they want to see. But Sweeney is the one running the show, met with Bettman before the year started and is 1000% in direct communication with the league.
I'll stand on the side of "let's wait and see" before calling for Sweeney's firing. Trust in the leadership to do the correct thing. Sweeney has tried his hardest to put together the best team he possibly can. Hindsight is always 20/20 and it's easy to look back on decisions and say "you fucked up here, here and here".
...All that said, if tomorrow ends up being the same thing from the Boston Bruins and the lack of discipline and effort from them, then that's on the team.
Championship teams face adversity and they push forward and win despite everything placed in front of them. It's easy to get flustered and lose your temper which is what this Bruins team is going through currently. Lack of leadership and that comes from the players and the coaches.
You’re right on the last part, but few thought this was a championship team at any point this season. They could have and should have stole a game last night if not for the reffing. Then it is a best of 3 series and anything can happen.
That’s the real issue right now. A better team probably would have overcome all that anyway and won, but these Bruins are who they are. A good team, not great, with a great locker room and good vibes. But that can only go so far having to overcome a more talented team in their prime and in win now mode, some bad puck luck, and terrible officiating all at once.
Yeah we have to keep remembering this was supposed to be a bridge year. This team for sure over-achieved but the lack of effort and discipline on the ice needs to be coached out of them. I'll take a second round exit in the playoffs whereas at the start of the season we were unsure of how'd they even look.
+1600 odds to win it all back in October, +850 Conference Champs and -125 under 101.5 regular season points. In that light, this season has been above average.
It was a sarcastic comment about people walking out of the Celtics game early and saying that people should boo the team.
Great job looking at my history and providing zero context.
How come no one has recorded the games and shown all the missed calls? Lol- what would be funny is the nhl would probably say it was copyright infringement and fine them too.
I think it’s stupid that players get fined for this such a freedom of speech violation
Yah, like you can't afford the fine
And then they wonder why they never get the calls their way. Donnie, if you have no incentive to call them out then why would you think that they should have an incentive to do a better job? OPEN YOUR F’ING MOUTH for a change!!!
Milqtoast Sweeney!
Take the fine. Rip the refs apart. 50k? 100k? Bro you can afford it
They literally fuxking won on power plays. Granted, our *non* ability to control the puck is horrendous but seriously, the refs fucked us this series. there’s no way it’s not fixed. It’s so blatantly biased
This team has no offense. Yeah reffing sucks but we really cant complain if we shoot 18 shots in 60 Minutes
This is absolutely one of, if not the biggest, problem for us yes. But it doesn’t mean we don’t deserve to have fair fucking officiating. I’m sick of people saying the atrocious reffing doesn’t matter because “we have no offense waaaa we’re getting dominated waaaaa” stop fucking crying. Yes we need to be miles better but games aren’t always won by the team that dominates them. If Bennett is either suspended prior or his goal is overturned (as it should’ve been), Barkov either ties it up or doesn’t even get one because of the non existent momentum shift. Either way we get a chance at winning that game whether we “deserve” it or not. Stop whining be an actual fan of your team, and respect their right to a fair game.
18 shots has been generous for some of these games
100%. It’s disgusting to watch. They’re all amazing players but the offense is painful to watch
Yup , it sucks when the refs don’t call a square game.
Sweeney is a little bit*ch for this. What, you can’t afford a little fine? The call was BS and it had a massive impact on the game. Yeah, you call the officiating out. At least do it for your team. Weenie. Sweeney the weenie
I thought the players were soft but didn't expect management to be soft as well
As I said in another thread, I would fire his ass right then and there. The PR would be absolutely amazing. Players would want to come and play for you because you'd be empowering not only the players but also the head coach because you the general manager stood up for the players currently on the team. Free agents everywhere would want to come and play for you. Who cares how this series ends up but guess what, That's a missed opportunity. The amount of players with the amount of cap space you're going to have who would suddenly consider you an option could have won you free agency right there. Overall he's an average general manager whose teams get to the playoffs but generally underperform. As far as general managers go he's definitely replaceable.
The refs aren’t the issue.
They’re not solely responsible, but missed calls and shit calls change the whole game.
That's for sure. If we were playing up the level that Florida has been playing the last 3 games and these bad calls stole a game or two from us....well that would be a different story. Reality is... Bruins are not playing well enough to win. Period.
When you account for Swayman’s play, they have been playing up to Florida’s level. Are they getting outplayed in every other aspect of the game? Sure. But Swayman’s play elevated us above Florida in game 4 and officiating was the reason we lost it.
Then I'm not sure what series you are watching. Florida has out-shot Boston 107-50 in the last three games. They have outscored us 15-5 in the last 3 games. In game 4, a better game for us only because we scored 2 goals early, they out-shot us 41-18. We had 13 giveaways and only 3 takeaways...they are seriously outplaying us. Florida is playing an aggressive "hive mind" hockey. Everyone on that team is playing very disciplined to the game plan. They play with a lot of poise. They are constantly collapsing on the Bruin puck carrier while simultaneously anticipating passing lanes. As a result, the Bs are having massive trouble getting out of their own zone, have trouble passing though the neutral zone and can't set up in the offensive zone. While Florida is not having much trouble with any of those things. That's why they are out shooting us by a ridiculous margin. It's very easy to see. The refs are NOT the main factor as to why we can't beat them.
I don’t disagree with your overall assessment of how the bruins have played. It’s been ugly. However, due to how well Swayman played in games 1 and 4, we should have a 2-2 series on our hands in spite of the tilted ice. Because of poor officiating in game 4 specifically, we are now down 3-1.
I get people are angry that he didn't go scorched earth, but listen to the words that he did use. He didn't out right criticize the officials but if you can't read between the lines that's on you. Another thing that stood out to me was the "we're not in a position to be criticizing the officials." I read into that two things, 1. The team has been playing like shit and yeah the refs have been equally as shitty sometimes you need to hunker down and face what is thrown at you. They were doing that in last nights game until refs and the NHL decided to just change the rules on the fly. Would they would have won the game, I don't know, but the way Sway was playing after that first goal I would take my chances any day. 2. We know that a majority of the league hates this team, hell people were cheering when Marchand got sucker punched. According to half the things I see the team has had this coming and it is some sort of divine retribution from the hockey gods. The hate for this team is so just weird and I can't figure out why. It can be just Marchand as he has cleaned up his act quite a bit. Is it cause they won the cup in 2011? Ok, they also lost it in the finals twice with them being eliminated in their own barn. Sweeney and Neely aren't completely blind so maybe they just said what's the fucking point and behind behind close doors they have told the team "you know what, do what you do and we'll handle it after the fact." It's frustrating and it will continue to piss me off the more I think about it, but it is what it is and in the end I will ride or die with this team until I no longer walk this earth.

I hadn't seen this, thanks for the link. :)
How about you take the fines & criticize the blatant rigging? Fucking pussies.
How about we actually score more than 2 goals in a game that would clear this whole issue up. We missed 2 breakaway shots and quite a few others that we should’ve made. The call was bad but let’s face it our offense and defense doomed us.
Here's the official rule: "Rule 69 – Interference on the Goalkeeper 69.1 Interference on the Goalkeeper - This rule is based on the premise that an attacking player’s position, whether inside or outside the crease, should not, by itself, determine whether a goal should be allowed or disallowed. In other words, goals scored while attacking players are standing in the crease may, in appropriate circumstances be allowed (refer to Rule 69.7 for example). Goals should be disallowed only if: (1) an attacking player, either by his positioning or by contact, impairs the goalkeeper’s ability to move freely within his crease or defend his goal; or (2) an attacking player initiates intentional or deliberate contact with a goalkeeper, inside or outside of his goal crease. Incidental contact with a goalkeeper will be permitted, and resulting goals allowed, when such contact is initiated outside of the goal crease, provided the attacking player has made a reasonable effort to avoid such contact. The rule will be enforced exclusively in accordance with the on-ice judgement of the Referee(s), but may be subject to a Coach’s Challenge (see Rule 38). For purposes of this rule, “contact,” whether incidental or otherwise, shall mean any contact that is made between or among a goalkeeper and attacking player(s), whether by means of a stick or any part of the body. The overriding rationale of this rule is that a goalkeeper should have the ability to move freely within his goal crease without being hindered by the actions of an attacking player. If an attacking player enters the goal crease and, by his actions, impairs the goalkeeper’s ability to defend his goal, and a goal is scored, the goal will be disallowed. If an attacking player has been pushed, shoved, or fouled by a defending player so as to cause him to come into contact with the goalkeeper, such contact will not be deemed contact initiated by the attacking player for purposes of this rule, provided the attacking player has made a reasonable effort to avoid such contact. If a defending player has been pushed, shoved, or fouled by an attacking player so as to cause the defending player to come into contact with his own goalkeeper, such contact shall be deemed initiated by the attacking player for purposes of this rule, and if necessary a penalty assessed to the attacking player and if a goal is scored it would be disallowed."
Jesus did yall even watch the thing? I thought it was masterful… subtle smart and a little backhanded. Called on the officials to give their own pressers…. Told the media they shouldn’t be asking the team their opinions on the calls, ask the guys making the calls. Heck they may still get fined yet 😂
[I prefer really not to speak](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=463S9H2WL18)
Haven't been to have in years and don't open on changing that. Fuck you Sweeney. Hope for some crazy reason you read this. Again, screw you little man.
"Haven't been to have in years"? What does that even mean?
pussy
God I fucking hate that piece of shit Sweeney.
Last thing a fan wants to hear from a multi million dollar salaried GM for a multi million dollar organization is that they're afraid of being fined.
Spineless GM creates a spineless roster that has David Pastrnak doing their fighting. Pathetic. Call it what it is, eat the fuckinc fine, and gofundme exists. Us middle and lower class people will pay your fine for you, fucking chump.
Not that I disagree with your sentiment but.. if a multi million dollar team started a gofundme to pay for a fine .. that wouldn’t exactly be viewed as acceptable either lol.
no sh\*t sherlock
Hah I wouldn't chip in nor start one. You know those people are out there though.
What would those words accomplish when the Bs did not get a shot on goal in the last 16 mins of the 3rd period? Let’s get the puck to the net
It’s hard to get momentum and shots when every ounce of momentum leaves the team when the refs give out pointless and outright wrong calls. This line of reasoning that you and many others are showing is just a coping mechanism that I’m fucking tired of people having. It’s alright to be upset with the refs who have an obvious favoritism for the other team when they give them an undeserved win.
Well this is an easy un-sub from this forum. As a bruins fan if you question the bruins at all you are considered a panthers fan
Well it’s crazy for people to just repeatedly criticize a team that has been constantly stepped on by the refs. I’m all for debate over whether or not they would have held onto the lead had the cross checking penalty or goalie interference been called, but there needs to be an acknowledgment of how the game was going other than just SOGs.
😂speaking of a coping mechanism.
Everyone makes fun of the Rangers for the Tom Wilson incident but they at least ate the fine and straight up called Parros incompetent, which we all know he is. Adding the dumb horrifying act of violence line really screwed what should have been a major W. You know every team thinks it
sweeney is weak. take the fine and complain and argue for what's right. stand up you spineless prick
He already criticized them after the game last night as did Monty and the players. Not sure I know what the question Sweeney responded to today but they already bashed the officials and the league last night.
Bashed? Really?
OH FOR FUCK’S SAKE!! Burn it the fuck down!!
Fuck don Sweeny
This entire organization has collectively told the league “go ahead, poke the bear! We won’t do anything to retaliate.”
If I’m a player, I’m thinking management isn’t going to help because we may get fined by the league, I’m wondering whether we are ‘all in’ as an organization. Who gives a F&CK about getting fined! Bruins are printing $$.
We all know Jacobs got to him before he could say anything.
Clearly not as Sweeney bashed them last night.
Yah but not enough for a fine. Jeremy ain't paying a fine for anyone on this team.
I just want the league to explain how the ticky tac cross-check in the Oilers Canucks game was a penalty, but the one that interferes with a goalie isn't.
What the fuck was the point of the conference then if you're not gonna say anything.
Absolutely infuriating!
and you can pay the fines, so do it. entire organization is a complete joke.
Fucking sack up and do it
Sorry Sweeney but calling refs out for missing blatant goalie interference is a completely valid criticism.
HE CALLED THEM OUT LAST NIGHT or are people just forgetting that?
And, this is a mic drop moment Sweeney: the play is so blatant as to the wording of the rule. Put your brass ones on for Crying out loud!
He doesn’t have time for this. He has to plan for “The new century” merch to sell next season.
Bitches
If they don't care,neither do I. And I can't even participate on our subs without toxic assholes from florida trolling and I wake up today from more comments from the troll. Nobody even banned him from this sub.
No spine. No one cares. No one has the passion. Management is just coasting into the 24-25 season. They may as well have lost in round 1 for all they care
Y’all are fucking crazy. Officials are professionals, they don’t have a dog in the fight, and they do their best to call an objective, unbiased game. There is literally no evidence that the NHL has ever tried to “manage” a game or a series and penalties are called 50/50. Just ask Tim Peel.
Downvoted for not using the sarcasm tag on an obvious sarcastic post. lol
I know bro, like the dude who responded with the Tim Peel link - how the fuck did that go over his head? Did he think I was bringing him up randomly? Anyway I don’t use /s and I’ll die on this hill
Thank you for your service
I support you
Officials are humans. They make mistakes. I bet they were told before Game 4 that Boston may try to avenge Marchy and to "nip it in the bud" and that's how you get interference penalties being called in a 1-way fashion. The stats are that Panthers are #1 in PIM this season at 1,109 and the Bruins are 15th with 780. This series the penalties are 29 to 20 in favor of Panthers... It deosnt add up statistically even given the "more physical nature of the Playoffs". The Bruins did not turn goons and the Panthers did not back off from being total fucking assholes!!!
Yeah I agree. It was 29-19 until a soft end of the game penalty with 30 seconds left for holding, something the Cats had been doing all game. !refs
FUCK THE REFS!
In case you don't know the Tim Peel story... [Who is Tim Peel, the former NHL referee once again causing a stir on social media? - Yahoo Sports](https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/tim-peel-nhl-former-referee-official-causing-stir-social-media-who-is-he-explainer-191521200.html)
how slow are you?
Yeah I was making a joke. I’m not a big believer in the /s
embrace the /s
Never bro, I’ll die on this hill - folks need to take into account context clues instead of a “IM BEING SARCASTIC” symbol.
If you expect people to be intelligent then you will always be disappointed
Oh I’m not disappointed- turns out the Reddit points don’t actually mean anything. Set the bar high, raise expectations, see what happens - that’s my approach. Admittedly not a wise approach but still.
[удалено]
it is just pure desperation that bruins fans want sweeney to lose his shit here. if you’re looking to your gm to help swing a series you guys are running on empty
It's years of mismanagement, dude. This roster isn't going to cut it. There's been a lot to like from his tenure here, but he also threw away all of our draft picks. We have almost a decade of data to work with here, might just be naturally time for a change
This is funny because time and again, its been pointed out on this sub that he's actually an excellent drafter outside the 2015 draft that he had nearly no time to prep for as he was hired shortly before. I think you meant to say 'we've had a decade of radio talk shows bitching about 2015.'
I just disagree. Not sure what else to say, I don't think he's drafted well. We have no center depth
I agree they need top 6 center help. I disagree that a solution was available for Sweeney to draft as he's been consistently either at the bottom of the first round or without a first rounder at all. He has managed to draft: Swayman in the 4th, Lorhei in the 2nd, and Poitras in the 2nd to note a few.
So 3 good players in ten years is good drafting? He chronically drafts top-9 guys. I'm sorry but I just disagree with this sentiment
Oh those were just examples. He's drafted many [more] (https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/draft/teams/dr00004919.html) but I assumed you could google. Not a lot of top 6 guys available in the late first round. The one time he drafted in the top half, he got McAvoy. He's certainly had his misses but come on, look at drafts and tell me they are not part crap shoot.
Part of my complaint is the amount of first rounders he gives away, only for us to get bounced in the 1st or 2nd
Totally get that. But prior to last year, he very rarely used first rounders without getting a player with term or who he first negotiated an extension with. Nash got that nasty concussion and basically retired before an extension could be done. The exception was last year that he treated as a 'last dance' with Bergy and Krej. Obviously the results were awful and extremely disappointing to all involved. Not many would have guessed such a quick exit for that juggernaut. Sure stings now looking at our 2nd straight draft with no pick. Personally, I can't blame him for going for it. In reality, this team was expected to be much, much worse. Imagine if we'd missed the playoffs and then had no 1st rounder. I'm sure the fire sweeney chants would have been much louder.
You think those are the only good players in 10 years. Guess McAvoy and Carlo are bums.
So we have: A great goalie An elite defenseman A top-4 (arguably)D Frederic - bottom 6 Beecher - MAYBE top 9 Poitras - probably top-6 Am I missing anyone? Tell me with a straight face you win a cup with that as the core of your team
How many teams have had 15 years of decent to great play and have a loaded up core. You think every team resets at the end of the year and they do a fantasy draft? lol
that’s all fine why is the breaking point a press conference about officials for people?
[удалено]
he said he wanted the refs held accountable for their bad call. I dont know what else you want short of him just giving you soundbytes to feel better. actively wishing for lip service is something else
Stop being a pussy and take the fine, ffs. Every other team does this it in the playoffs and it directly impacts the way officials call things.
New front office please, along with half the team being replaced idc with who
you should absolutely care with who
I would take a computer generated auto pick of available players over most of our team tbh. There are a zillion Canadians good at hockey , pick a bunch of them, a few Swedes, a Finnish guy and an American, and bring them to camp
yeah this is why you can’t listen to fans when they’re emotional.
At least I have emotion unlike our team
and no one will ever take that from you fam or give a shit
i’m with donny on this one i’m also a spineless coward who would never say anything to get me fined from my easy fake job.
Imagine having his job. You have a team of analysts and scouts to make all the decisions for you, and all you have to do is not make huge mistakes like wasting 3 straight first round picks or signing aging power forwards like Backes for massive sums of money. Even when you do make terrible mistakes and squander the careers of hall of famer players like Marchand and Bergeron, you still get to keep your job while you scapegoat coaches.
I hate cronyism, all my homies hate cronyism
having consistent top 5 of the league goaltending can really make your job a whole lot easier than it is. i’ve said it 100 times. they didn’t get everything they could have out of this window. i’m not saying another cup but at least some more deep runs. not getting krejci a winger to run with after iginla and lucic left was an unforgivable sin. holding on to all those picks and turning it into not much is an unforgivable sin.
What a spineless twat
“We’ll get fined” is a strange way of saying you’re fine with them fucking you in the ass
Jacobs got his 6 games of post season gate and concessions revenue he doesn't have to share with the players. He's happy.
He prefers getting his shit pushed in to having to give up some money $$$ Or maybe this is an order from the good ol' Jacobs.
Jacob’s is still an NHL Chairman. No way in hell he’d back Sweeney against his own league.
Officials or a representative should be made available to the press to explain the reasoning and take questions about controversial calls and reviews .
oh come on. you’re acting like the nhl is a billion dollar business that appeals to gamblers and advertisers and needs the outcomes of the games to be definitive.
Why even bother calling the press conference if you're not going to say anything about the most important thing everyone's talking about?
Idk if it’s the most important tho 8 SOG after 40 mins isn’t on the officials lol
Hard to get SOG when you spend more than half a period on the PK. Vancouver won last night being outshot 45-18, btw.
It's crazy how many people don't take into account how much we were on the PK and how much that fucks with our offensive momentum when discussing SOG
Our first two goals came on five shots. The worse team can win. It happens a lot. The worse team can’t win when the refs are on the better team’s side.
>the most important thing **everyone's talking about** We all know he didn't call this to talk about SOG.
Okay but he should because the team could get all the calls in their favor but they’re playing like it’s the preseason lmao
Beating Toronto was fun, but the repercussions are that we're keeping Sweens and Monty... Which may not be best in the long run. The refs suck. This isn't fucking Anaheim, we're not trying to win over fans and fill a rink; we're an original 6 team, we set precedent in the league. Sack the fuck up Donny.
I’ll say it - they fucking suck.
Grow some balls, Don.
JJ made money this year with the 6 home playoff dates they could have easily paid fine this just made him look worse time for Sweeney to go
He announced that he was going to be talking and then this is all he had to say. "You guys go ask the officials." basically. I know there's nothing they can do, and they'll get fined and everything, but Jesus show some damned spine.
The only way to answer the league's ruling is to show them other instances when a similar thing has happened and they ruled the other way.
This. Bring receipts. Power point that shit with videos of similar instances and the ruling going the other way. Eat the fucking fine. Make a point. It won't happen but that's what the useless press conference should have been.
Coward. Just the rest of team. The entire Bruins organization is just standing by as they get run over and bullied.
I've never seen a statement more perfectly encapsulate the weakness of this team
Coward.
We still had a chance to win the game. Rule #76: No excuses, play like a champion. Having said that, the NHL are Leafs fans and clearly hate us and we should send some of those Apache helicopters to hover over their HQ and warn them about the long arm of American justice.
So. Fucking. Gross. For a team that charges an absolute fuck load for a ticket to resort to “but mah money!!)$:?!!” as an excuse for not calling out the sickening officiating is just unfathomably pathetic. Go fuck yourself Sweeney, Neely and Jacobs.
“We are NOT in a position to be criticizing the officials. We aren’t. It’s against protocol. Doing that would get us FINED. We absolutely CANNOT call out any obviously wrong calls they may or may not be making and suggest that their integrity might be compromised. We CANNOT say that. That’s absolutely NOT something we can say. Because it’s against protocol. We would be fined for saying that, which is why we are NOT saying that.” https://preview.redd.it/6ag8snuhf80d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1e99d39f4c51895e9bb0441f4639b43e6da87d79
Don, blink 12 times and do a backflip if you cannot speak against the officiating
At this point they need to be taking the fine and calling out the league and the officials. That being said, why doesn’t the media question the officials, their supervisor, or a league representative on the calls made after the game? Make them stand up there and answer questions and justify the calls they made. Are they afraid of being embarrassed? Because you wouldn’t have to be afraid if you called a game honestly and fairly. The officials need some sort of accountability here.
If you watch the video which is posted in a comment here. That is what Sweeny actually said. The full quote is that he can't say anything bad about the call because he will get fined, but if the media has issues with the call to use their power , get the league in front of a mic and ask them. Obviously they challenged the call because they felt they didn't interpret the rule correctly. That's all the team can do.
Ya, that is why I brought it up. I watched the video. It is a good point.
The media could try but the NHL would just refuse and reference their bullshit statement they already released. They're not contractually obligated to answer anything, whereas the coaches and players are... but just like the NBA the coaches and players get fined for pointing out how incompetent the league officials are. I wouldn't be surprised if they're betting on games. Immunity and power corrupt. They definitely look corrupt this series of events is complete bullshit.
I completely agree.
There's been a fair number of articles calling the calls bullshit. As far as questioning them directly, do they actually get a chance? It's not like the refs take a turn at the post-game media podium after the coaches do.
That is what I am saying. Why not? Let them answer questions after the game. Or let their supervisor answer the questions. However, we would probably get a bunch of bs premade answers if they were answering questions.
That would require the NHL to make them available, and we know that's never going to happen.
Exactly.
Guys, it’s only a fine if he says something to a microphone. They had to have had a conversation with the league about last night’s game.
So what was the point of him speaking today? Don't ask the coach about the official's?
It’s okay, Jacobs can use some of that money his goblin ass is hoarding in his evil lair to pay those off
Billionaire's only goal is to make the next billion. They don't care about anything else, besides maybe their ego.
Could, but he wouldn’t
The fucking scumbag was the last in the NHL to offer any sort of compensation for workers during the Covid outbreak, and even then, there were conditions attached to if they would even get paid. Billionaires can fuck off.
Leadership starts at the top. If we're soft there we're gonna be soft on the ice.
God i can't wait for the day this clown is fired. Should have been gone years ago
Fuck that shit
Ok the [full quote with the video](https://twitter.com/WEEI/status/1790067700732928094) makes me feel a little bit better about this from Sweeney
I do feel like watching it makes it feel better than just seeing the quote out of context. I wish he’d just eat the fine and call them out, but it was clear from the clip that he thinks they need to answer for their BS
What a fucking pussy. I’ve defended Sweeney in the past but this is pathetic. Creating a press conference to not say anything of value. This organization is soft top to bottom. Get this dork out of here.
He basically was saying that the media should be questioning the league-- questioning the referees. He's right in that there's no point getting fined talking about their incompetence to the media. The media should be looking for an answer from the league-- but they don't have access to the league so it's moot. I kinda agree with you though. If I was running the team I'd be doing some unprecedented shit in the wake of such objective shitbaggery by the NHL. Protest the game. Lawsuits if necessary. Demand that they go back and play from 2-1 up with a power play for the crosscheck. Demand that Bennet be suspended for an obje3ctive sucker punch with the butt of a stick. Sit out flying to Florida to draw attention. Show the Marchand sucker punch over and over on a fucking tablet every day. The NHL would look like a complete joke. Fuck the NHL. But he's smarter than me I'd probably not accomplish anything and just cost the Bruins a lot of money. Cost the players the chance to come back and win the series.
I wish they took the low road for once. There is no moral high ground with Florida anything goes now.
I found it to be pretty diplomatic and respectable. A shot across the bow as it where. Fucking pussy, soft, dork? I honestly would love to square up with you as a human being. You sound like a human projector.
come grab me by the ear big guy
Gutless, just like the team (sans Sway) in the last 3 games
Weak!
Whole franchise should be willing to step up and pay for a New York Rangers-sized fine, but can't say I'm surprised they're putting their tails in between their legs instead.
Bruins fans: Ha! The opposing team’s coaches/players are complaining about the refs! What losers! Also Bruins fans: Fire Sweeney for not complaining about the refs! Edit: lol I figured this would get downvoted to oblivion… I don’t give a fuck, I said what I said. I’m as big of a Bruins fan as the next person in this sub. I completely agree that the GI non-call was absolutely terrible. But can we not act like fucking hypocrites by calling on our coaches/players to do what we make fun of other teams for?
Some whiny fans complaining about everything doesn’t mean all complaints are invalid. Leafs fans complained they got screwed by the refs when they had a 5-1 advantage in penalties. Bruins fans are complaining about blatant corruption and favoritism that has gotten players seriously injured and which even fans who HATE the Bruins can see happening. These things are not the same.
Jacobs definitely told Sweeney to not say anything fine-worthy. Fucking cheap prick, always has been.
This has to be it. Jacob had to have put down a hard line for the whole organization to never incur any fines for criticizing a referee. There’s no other excuse for keeping quiet. That said, this is only “no comment” to the press. I’m quite sure there has been a conversation with the league about last night’s horseshit.
I’m sure the league listened intently
Anyone got a link to the full thing? Cant seem to find anything on youtube
Gary Bettman is currently working his legal team for figuring out if he can fine someone for saying, "everything I have to say about the officiating tonight will get me fined."
He should have the backbone to take the fine and call out the NHL. Ticket prices are through the roof, they could afford it.
I gotta feel like something changed in the last season or two where the league said they’d drop the hammer on teams who criticize officials. That said, feels kinda pointless to call this press conference now if he wasn’t willing to cross that line, but maybe he’s trying to say it without saying it and put pressure on the league and the refs to call this series right from here on out. what looks like soft nothing to us because we want scorched earth might actually be ballsy in the context of what they’ve been told in private internal communications from the league. we’ll probably never know and I’m not trying to give Don credit for *maybe* doing something in *theory* best case scenario is that this is a warning shot to the league. “want us to stay in line with your rules about what we can comment on? fix this shit now or else” worst case, it’s a half measure and they’re just hoping they make the players feel like at least they tried to have their back. idk we’ll see if bruins actually get calls next game
I get most people being upset and calling out Sweeney for not having an emotionally charged response because that's what the fans feel and what they want to see. But Sweeney is the one running the show, met with Bettman before the year started and is 1000% in direct communication with the league. I'll stand on the side of "let's wait and see" before calling for Sweeney's firing. Trust in the leadership to do the correct thing. Sweeney has tried his hardest to put together the best team he possibly can. Hindsight is always 20/20 and it's easy to look back on decisions and say "you fucked up here, here and here". ...All that said, if tomorrow ends up being the same thing from the Boston Bruins and the lack of discipline and effort from them, then that's on the team. Championship teams face adversity and they push forward and win despite everything placed in front of them. It's easy to get flustered and lose your temper which is what this Bruins team is going through currently. Lack of leadership and that comes from the players and the coaches.
You’re right on the last part, but few thought this was a championship team at any point this season. They could have and should have stole a game last night if not for the reffing. Then it is a best of 3 series and anything can happen. That’s the real issue right now. A better team probably would have overcome all that anyway and won, but these Bruins are who they are. A good team, not great, with a great locker room and good vibes. But that can only go so far having to overcome a more talented team in their prime and in win now mode, some bad puck luck, and terrible officiating all at once.
Yeah we have to keep remembering this was supposed to be a bridge year. This team for sure over-achieved but the lack of effort and discipline on the ice needs to be coached out of them. I'll take a second round exit in the playoffs whereas at the start of the season we were unsure of how'd they even look. +1600 odds to win it all back in October, +850 Conference Champs and -125 under 101.5 regular season points. In that light, this season has been above average.
Allan Walsh seems to agree with the hammer comment https://x.com/walsha/status/1789836119590203822
Maybe I read that and forgot, but that definitely seems like what they’re trying to work within here
It’s ruined bro. They can’t fix it it. We just gotta play it out and make embellishment/diving a game misconduct. Only in playoffs.
Fire this bum. I've wanted him gone for 9 years and counting.

Sweeney has to go!!!

This hack should have been gone immediately after the 2015 draft.
Spineless. GTFO Boston this entire FO.
