Reimer gave up a ton of rebounds but either Toronto collapsed and cleared them or the B's had no traffic. They get traffic and Horton pots one, Lucic puts home a rebound, Bergy gets it past Chara's screen and Bergy puts home a rebound after Seguin battled out in front. Was really pretty simple.
Yup. This and the fact that they needed more shots to create the rebounds. Felt like their shot numbers for the series were deceiving.
There were a lot, just from the outsides. Not too threatening and easy stops for most pro-caliber goalies, Marc-Andre Fleury notwithstanding.
No team in the NHL is better at making loud noises off the back glass than the Bruins. Hitting the net even 50% of the time would be an accomplishment for most on the roster. And that puck heads the other way awfully quickly when it hits those back boards.
It was infuriating all series long to watch Reimer give up rebound after rebound without a black shirt anywhere to be found. No way they beat Lundquist without a lot more traffic than they had against Toronto
