Dimitri, either Mara is in the dog house or under the weather. When you're up by 30 at the half, you can give the kid some playing time. I was happy to see Kyle get extended play. I would still like to see Dailey, Bilodeau and Kyle/Mara together. I don't think it's going to happen. I also think that will hurt against bigger teams. Andrews played better last night. We did struggle against the press a bit. I'm happy that we played much better last night, but I don't know what to glean from that.
I haven’t paid particular attention to the bench this season, but I did notice Mara was wearing knee compressions while he sat there, so not sure if his knees were bothering him or something else. It looked at one point like he was getting ready to go in but then the coaching staff decided against it, so I’d lean towards some kind of injury where the staff recognized they could rest him.
Thank you to all my dear friends for your loving thoughts and prayers for my mom. This morning at 3 am, my mom and best friend, died. I was not prepared for the sights and sounds of death. But she was not alone, and she knows how much my son and I love her 💔😢
Her enemy was Alzheimer's and it ravaged her for years. I took care of her throughout as my son Connor, me and my mom - the 3 muskateers, had lived together since Connor was a baby.
I am traumatized and shattered, and Connor is suffering as he loves his Gram so much. I have to hold onto the belief that my beautiful, loving vibrant mom will now be held close by my dad - the love of her life, and they will be cheering on the Bruins from Heaven.
Forever in our hearts mom. Much love to you all and God Bless 🙏💔😢
My sincere condolences, Ms. Tamara. Having gone through it myself, I know that caretaking of a dying loved one is so unbelievably sad and difficult to handle. Remembering them when they were at their very best and having faith that their spirit lives on to await an eventual reunion are indeed some of the ways to help cope with the loss. Take care.
You are so right, and your thoughts mean so much. Caregiving is so daunting and I am so sad for the loss of your loved one 💔😢🙏. Holding onto the belief that I will see my mom again, and that she is not suffering anymore, is my only solace. Thank you 💙💛🙏
Thank you for letting us know. I have been thinking about you and praying for you and your family. I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your mother and best friend. I have lost both my parents and one brother and there is not a day that goes by that I don't think of them. You will never regret caring for her and being there until the end as difficult as it can be. There truly are no words for times such as this. Please know that I will keep you and your son I'm my prayers. Do not let go of the belief of the belief that you will be reunited with your mother.
Thank you from my heart, BruinMom. It was a precious gift to be able to care for my mom and for her to know she was never alone. I know your mom and dad and brother are watching over you, and I am certain they will live in your heart forever. Much love to you always 💙💛
Your steadfast and loving devotion to your mom over these last difficult months was undoubtedly an immense comfort to her, even if her Alzheimer's may have made it seem unrealized. I am grateful for your mom that she is at peace, and I hope that helps you and Connor find some yourselves. Love and condolences to both of you.
Thank you dear Greg for your caring and compassion heart. I received a bouquet of flowers from a friend and the flowers were the exact shades of every flower my mom needle pointed on the piano bench of the Steinway piano my dad gave my mom on her birthday many years ago. I played her favorite Chopin Waltz for her during the days before she died. I believe in my heart that the colors of those flowers in the bouquet were a way of my mom saying, I heard the music you played for me and I love you for all the beauty you shared with me. Much love to you Greg 💙💛🙏
Terrible news Tamara. I lost my great-grandmother to Alzheimer’s almost 10 years ago. The last time I visited her she told me she wanted to die because she had no recollection of most of her life and couldn’t even recognize her own relatives anymore.
My heart and prayers go out to you and your family during this difficult time.
Thank you dear E2148 💙💛 My mom could not swallow and she was not responsive. It was so traumatic but she knows how much we love her, forever and always 💔🙏
Nice blowout win against the (defense-less) Buckeyes, but the Bruins were outscored in the 2nd half, started committing more fouls, and really struggled against the full-court press. I think they have to show more consistency and beat a much stronger Badger team on Tuesday in order to convince anyone that their recent 4-game losing streak was just a temporary midseason slump.
No critical comments? UCLA must have won. 🤣

He wears those every game. I've seen it in person and on TV.

Go Bruins!
Hawkeyes.
I stand corrected, thanks!
Still getting my "eyes" accustomed to being in the B1G Conference...
