[0:00]" I get everyone David Bob back with you and finally back home -- spent most of the month of October on the road -- habits the back home tonight and it's funny -- some of the players they take four out of six points on that trip through western Canada. You'd think they'd be pleased with the they're disappoint with a game in Calgary."
[0:16]" Well that's good sign and I hope it carries over into tonight's game against Dallas because Dallas should be hungry team the coming off a loss last night in Chicago. Which puts a little bit of an advantage on Boston's side but you know we always talk about that first game back after you know long road trip and hasn't. There's only three games for Boston but has been along month on the road for them and in the coming back home in the worsened they could do would be relaxed coming into this game. Some include Julien talked of equipment this morning was playing sixty minutes -- emphasizing it quite a bit it's something that you're always strive for a team. But he hasn't seen it nearly enough from his team this season so far. And when he's looking for areas of improvement that's one of the main ones so you can jump on a a team that's down right now they're hurt by some injuries his doubt -- the Dallas Stars have allowed. Uncharacteristically. A number of goals and they did play last night shall Boston. Should be ready and then they've got to a few days off before they have -- gone against so this is a little later part of their schedule after tonight so go relax tonight."
[1:17]" Well you're saying as well this morning you -- you know every time it seems like we have a lull in the game -- happening Calgary in the second period the other and it comes back to bite us a month into the season he says that's kind of the thing is looking for from his team is a consistency."
[1:28]" Yeah every coach is looking for veteran players looking for that and you're not going to get it in over an eighty game schedule but you -- want to have a more often than not. I think it's started to creep and actually later in that first period action after Patrice Bergeron made it one to nothing in in that game against congress senate since -- creeping in. Later on that first period and then of course the second period. The Bruins were hit with a bunch of penalties and some of it self inflicted you know and and their penalty killing has not been good this season so. In another area that needs to be really cleaned up for them is that penalty killing and they're going to put themselves shorthanded they've got to find a way. To get better at killing these penalties and and you know collapses in time all that was a lapse in time and that put him behind. If you're behind by two goals against Calgary and third periods to be tough to come back on all."
[2:13]" Penalty kill Claude Julien addressed this morning he should there's times were just too soft on the clock the chances -- the puck in this times we don't do and it comes back to cost us."
[2:21]" Yeah that's usually variety of things and you can look back great beginning you know from first few games -- played this year and and you know the reason sport whether it's. Being soft on the puck equal Drew and sit and not getting that puck all the way down on the ice whether it's being. Too passive. Either up the ice or in your own zone thought that was the case for a couple of games. And then once you do become more aggressive and start to try to adjust everybody asked me on the same page of one guys jumping him being aggressive that next guy has to be ready to jump and it's -- they -- that -- he's not doing that. Then you're going to be in for some problems as well because that's going to leave open people and and if you're not jumping at the right time that's going to leave somebody with some time and some space in order to make plays in the guys on the power plays. Are generally your most skilled players and they're going to find the open man more often than not so yeah the power plays against the Bruins -- the Bruins has been. You know a sore subject it was last year and it continues to be this year so they've they've got to find a way to goaltending has -- better that was Tim Thomas that's something -- who it was looking forward needed better goaltending. They got that on that road trip but still with two power play goals against Calgary hurt them."
[3:24]" Tweaks to the lineup tonight so Marco -- is going to play on what is basically the third line with David Craig Shipley Wheeler in the put PJ Axelsson after Bergeron line include -- saying Sturm has to be more involved really in all areas of the game."
[3:36]" Yeah -- you know it you go through spells and that's that consistency go back to where you. You're playing well we're not playing well you hope to. Minimize the games and you're not playing well and and and make them just a couple of you know slumping for a couple games -- break out of it. -- Marco Sturm had some problems earlier this season them getting going offensively I guess and and yet close -- and they were going to get him back. Getting more involved you know he. He he has ability to via a gritty type of player he wins battles went back to that goal scored against Montreal Canadians in game six Regis. He bumped Roman Hamlet cup but not once but twice in the same shift came right out in front was they -- score was a huge goal. Against Canadians in that game six do you think back to that type of ship that's you know that's the desire to get it done that's desire to go to those areas that you need to go to. When you're struggling to score goals and and find a way to get them so. They hopefully we'll change of scenery for him where replacement David -- David Richards certainly are gifted playmaker and you know -- and going to use his speech to his. -- one of his best assets is his speed and he's got to use that's been tumors have been."
[4:43]" And coming into tonight against Dallas as you said the stars team that is always seem to be one of the best goals against teams in the league but so far this year that as in the case that allowed more goals than anybody we're thinking maybe Marty Turco tonight after you've got the night off last."
[4:56]" I would assume so in here and play I didn't play last night Jazz opened last two games actually hurt. Dallas and he has been struggling early on in the season but last night's game against. Chicago was more about you know what the guys are going up the ice the turnovers that they had they gave up so many odd man rushes against Chicago Blackhawks last night that is. Completely on characteristic of -- Dallas Stars in the we're used to seeing a team went to the conference finals last year before eventually losing. To the Detroit Red Wings so this team complaint they've been hit hard with some injuries as we mentioned. They're they're missing some guys here in this game coming in and it's a perfect time for the Bruins try to take advantage of them you know a team that's struggling early on in the season to. Two to not -- it winds are actually are on the same records they were last season at this exact time. But the goals against is something that they really want to try to cleanups of Boston a team has been challenges were most troublesome this early part of the year. Should be good matchup for them."
[5:50]" Good to be back all the Bruins have finally -- said they they get through tonight they get some time off and be back get a Thursday released trying get a positive result on homeless."
[5:59]" Only three games in the next what is it 1012 days that after today so they can't forget about today they don't play handle Thursday. Coming back a road trip a little tired of times on what ever throw all that stuff all the windows you know you're planning it's a team that's struggling. And they've got to get themselves assumption on my statement you know and they've played three games here. The old one wonder X 21 loss in a shootout at Pittsburgh the disappointing loss Toronto. And then a game against Atlanta that they were fortunate to get a win -- because they didn't start off all that well in that game so this is a chance for them to. To start establishing themselves at home few games in a row here. And it they went nuts when a starter right now coming up the road trip that build some momentum coming off the road trip don't lose because of that game and Calgary."
[6:43]" Well Bruins in Dallas Stars tonight we'll have a -- on a 655 pregame at WBZ and WBZ 1030 dot count."
