The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the week, every six hours. Up is worse. Dashed lines are games.
Worst game: Tue, Oct 13, L 2-4 vs Calgary Flames
In-game fan misery, every 15 minutes.
What happened
Two games, two 2-4 losses, and a fanbase that stopped pretending. Calgary set the tone Tuesday, and the verdict was unanimous: "Calgary outworked us, plain and simple." Boston copied the homework three nights later, same final, less surprise. The turning point was that repeat scoreline, which turned frustration into blame, with calls for Leo and Lacombe to "step the fuck up" and open hostility toward the officiating after Poehling's injury went unpunished. Misery climbed from 44 to 65. Identical losses hurt twice.

“If refs called the hold on Beck it would be our game. Fucking ridiculous, considering what they called for 5 on 3.”

“So that's not a trip but it's okay to take Poehling out for 6-8 weeks on a similar sliding play. Okay.”
