Students involved in The Flat Stanley Project are read the story of Flat Stanley and are subsequently given black-and-white cut-outs of him for them to color. And that just seemed like a way of communicating that grade-three students might enjoy.' Stanley's parents rolled him up, put him in an envelope and mailed him to his friend in California. My guess (not my suggestion) would be Bruce Cassidy brings Trent Frederic back to try to spark the 11-12-13 line, and possibly Anton Blidh in if Tomas Nosek is hurt.In an interview with CNN in 2005, Hubert explained: 'In the book, by Jeff Brown, Stanley gets squashed flat by a falling bulletin board. People on Twitter are clamoring for Matt Grzelcyk to be scratched if Lindholm is back, but that seems like a stretch. What are you doing to the lineup for Game 6? They’ll need some more of that if they hope to visit Raleigh again before next season. They had stretches of great play in Games 3 and 4, even when shorthanded. It feels like a guarantee that changes will be made, almost certainly among the forward corps and potentially in net if Hampus Lindholm can play, that’s a nice bonus. This isn’t to suggest the loss is their fault, but you’re going to struggle when the middle of your lineup has that little of an impact.Īnyways, the B’s find themselves in familiar territory: heading home in slight disarray.

The same can’t be said for Charlie Coyle (one shot) and Erik Haula (zero shots). Obviously hits and shots aren’t goals, but the big names were at least semi-noticeable.

The Bruins leaned heavily on their big forwards again last night - David Pastrnak skated more than 22 minutes and landed six shots on net, Brad Marchand had four shots on goal and five hits, etc.

Ultimately, this one felt a bit doomed from the first goal, one that Jeremy Swayman simply can’t allow in a game of that magnitude.įrom there, when you saw Seth Jarvis’s second goal wackily find its way in.yeah.

While calling it a true stinker might be harsh, the Bruins had a big opportunity to grab this series by the scruff of the neck last night, and instead fell flat on their faces.Įven the pre-game return of Charlie McAvoy, whisked to Raleigh via private jet, had little impact, though it made for some cool stories. In my preview of Game 5, I politely suggested that the Bruins:
