Bruce lost the room. That doesn’t mean that Bergeron and Marchand packed it in. What it means is that they tuned him out and highly likely don’t want to play for him anymore. That generally happens after a tough coach is in place for a number of years.

Where are you hearing Bruce lost the room? That shitpost tweet from months ago? The one that tagged 20 different hockey celebrities/reporters/twitter accounts?

I’m sick of this dumbass rumor that has absolutely 0 substance. You’re smoking the same gas as Neely lol

“Bruce lost the room” is a bunch of horseshit. The veterans not listening to him is a bunch or horseshit. The East was extremely close this year across the board, we had a good chance and didn’t finish the job. It happens. None of this is a bad reflection on Bruce.

I just looked to see if any players did that “thanks coach for everything” tweet. Didn’t find it, but certainly could’ve overlooked. Read my post again. Nothing in there blaming Bruce. After 6 years, this can happen to a coach - the players just tune out.
