00:00Bruins

00:01Relatively lifeless in that game last night wake up

00:04Jim Montgomery after the game

00:07Said the team's attitude needs to get better

00:10He said he's frustrated and it's unacceptable up and down the lineup throughout the lineup last night what the Bruins did they?

00:19Actually take the lead

00:20They give up four goals

00:23Three other power play three straight power play goals. Yeah, and the guys taking the penalties to me are the issue when

00:31These penalties have been an issue and they've been called out for it from Jim Montgomery

00:34We talked about Mayo calling out the team and the team not responding

00:38Montgomery's doing the exact same thing and

00:41Montgomery's a lame-duck coach who is not under contract beyond the year and it would be much easier to move on from

00:46Than someone like Gerard Mayo who I still think they could move on from

00:51But does have term and just got brought here like Montgomery's been here for a few years

00:55he's calling them out for taking penalties being lazy and

00:59Starting the second period ten seconds in posture knock lazy penalty posture knock had two of them last night

01:05Marchant had to both in the offensive zone three power play goals

01:09They've allowed power play goals in just about every game this season and so to me

01:15This feels like a dead man walking it feels like a team that's completely and totally tuned out their coach

01:20I said this yesterday. We were talking to Andrew Raycroft. I was more up in arms about watching Brad Marchand

01:26Then I was about watching Montgomery shove Brad Marchand in the the shoulders

01:31Yeah, I was more into watching Marchand just getting a hollered at by Montgomery and not even blinking not even blinking

01:38It's like your wife is squawking and you're trying to just watch the TV and just tuning it out

01:42That's what it looked like it looked like he was tuning him out

01:45The team has tuned him out and you have to wonder when Montgomery's gonna be out cuz Keith

01:49I don't I don't think it's gonna be much longer. Yeah, it's crazy how it works especially in hockey

01:53it feels like coaches are in and out all the time really quick because

01:56Montgomery was the one that got here and saved them from the very scary Bruce Cassidy

02:00That was too mean to the players even though he wins a cup immediately when he leaves

02:03Yeah, but I thought they liked Montgomery and they've had some really really good regular seasons under Montgomery

02:10Then winning in the first round last year, I think saved

02:13Jim's job. Otherwise, he would have been gone. Yeah, if they lost to Toronto, he would I think so back a hundred percent
