Patriots 2011 dates against Giants, Jets reportedly set 04.19.11 at 4:43 pm ET
By

Even though the Patriots’ schedule won’t be officially released until tonight at 7, there are some early leaks. The first one comes from the New York Daily News, which reports that the Patriots and Jets will play at Gillette Stadium in Week 5. The second comes from the Newark Star-Ledger, which is reporting that the Patriots will host the Giants in Week 9 — specifically, Nov. 6 at 4:15 p.m. That would eliminate two of the eight home games, with the other six (Miami, Buffalo, Dallas, Indianapolis, Kansas City and San Diego) set to come later tonight.

(UPDATE, 5:12 p.m.: The Patriots have announced via their Twitter feed that they will open the 2011 season on the road.)

    What a great report, I’m keen on the way you create content. I even have simply just tweeted this to help you share it and obtain other visibility for your web site!

    Definitely Rask’s coming of age game. He was solid.

    By the way, how do you hook someone with one hand on your stick like they called Krecji for with 34 seconds left in the game? Ridiculous.

  • Sicko

     I almost fell out of my chair when the officials actually called that slash by Subban with a minute left. I guess the officails realized their mistake and called the joke of a hook on Krejci.

  • Bruinman86

     Was he ever.  Main reason they won indeed. The hooking call was bogus.  Home ref or something.

  • Fab4ever

    ….and Tuukka continues to excel…small sample but he’s on the right side of the tracks…he was sensational…..and hats off the Claude..this guy doesn’t get enough credit for the job he does…we were told that he’d wear out his welcome before long…well, I don’t see that…what I see is a frim hand on this team…these guys play hard…and what a masterful stroke to mix it up…and this wasn’t a change for change sake…I’m sure he thought about it and bang, he implements it and it worked…

  • Jerry Remy

    ya that was a rough call on krejci, but that was also a bad call on subban right before that.

  • Uncle Buck

    No matter what happens there will always be one constant for the games in Montreal, poor officiating, usually tilted towards the home team.  Add that to the fact that the current Montreal club has perfected diving and embellishment and you have a nice combo for the home team. That aside, always nice to go into Montreal and leave with the two points.  Nothing better that beating those Canadiens.  

  • JL5

    Rask played like the All Star he is becoming.  Claude’s line switch up pairing Seguin and Krejci was a fine move by the coach.  Always great to beat the Habs at home.

    Agree, the NHL has redefined hooking to a point of absurdity. It seems as if a checking player makes contact with his stick to the body of the puck carrier he’s called for hooking. It has become ridiculous. I remember when hooking actually looked like hooking. 

  • Geetsolboy

    Classic make up call by the ref. They were just looking for an opportunity to level the play after the Subban penalty. You can bank on that call in that circumstance against the visiting team almost every time.

  • glenn88

    Good win, but that was 90% Tukka.  Losing Marchand really unsettles the lines.   Bruins were outplayed for most of the night and the Habs looked faster and more skilled.  Still believe the Bruins will need to trade for a good 3rd line player to help solidify the 3rd line and provide needed scoring depth.

    This team is on fire!!!!! So much talent and everyone is producing. Keep up the good work.

    Good thing Rask was spectacular in the first period. This game should have been about 3-0 after 20 minutes of play. I thought Bruins played progressively better as the game went along and by the end deserved the win. It was a great early season win, especially considering MTL got 0 pts for that one, no OT or anything, basically a 4 point game versus MTL in the standings. 

    I like having Seguin, Krecji, Lucic on a line and having Horton, Bergeron, Marchand on the other scoring line. This means each line has a scorer (Seguin, Marchand) a playmaker at center (Krecji and Bergeron) and a power forward (Lucic, Horton). Seems to be the best fit. This should also be the two PP lines. Just let them keep it simple and keep their lines together, so they can use the natural line chemistry to get the ball rolling on the PP. 

    Now that we have four solid defenseman, all who can take solid shots and not kill us on the back end of the PP, can we stop putting forwards on defense on the PP? Why, in all that is holy, was Tyler Seguin on the point last night and not playing forward on the PP? 

    Honestly, keep the PP simple, let everyone stay in the role they are comfortable with, put the best players on the ice, and let them use their skills to their advantage. Enough with fourth line players on the PP and forwards playing defense.

    Didn’t surprise me that much given the history there. Still shouldn’t happen, just the same. But a win is a win, and I’ll take it. Especially against that insane fanbase in their own building.
