Smiling, struggling Horton’s head hurting Bruins as much as his hands
Whatever it’s going to take to get Horton’s head straightened out enough so his hands can produce the way he’s supposed to, the Bruins have to find it fast. Their fortunes or reliant on him as a point producer, not just a pretty smile.

I was watching the bruins beat calgary last night and they said to go to nesn.com seventhplayer to vote . I went to the website and cannot find anywhere to vote . whats up ?
Horton is too talented to stay snake bitten forever, and it is true that his efforts of late have been much better (not counting last night.) When he finally snaps out of his cold streak, I have a feeling that he and Savvy are going to go on an absolute tear. Trouble is, I’m not sure the Bruins can stay on a winning pace for much longer without that top line producing.
Karl Hungus: “… i’d rather see paille playing for him right now.”
Take it back Karl.
You don’t really want that sort of quote floating around the interwebs attributed to you, do you?
flip looch and horton. i keyed on the latter last night and it wasn’t pretty. kid has zero confidence right now. move him down to krejci’s line to take the pressure off. i’d rather see paille playing for him right now.
Yeah, the turnovers/dead head plays hurt last night, but give this kid a break on the lack of offensive production. He’s been getting chances and has been absolutely robbed quite a few times in this stretch. He’ll snap out of it sometime, but come on, we all know that snipers are streaky scorers. Let’s not pretent that this lack of scoring for long stretches isn’t an aberration. At least he’s putting forth the effort and up until last night, hasn’t really cost the team in the win/loss column. He’s been visible every game, he’ll break out of it soon.
Maybe Horton should let this stuff bother him. if it doesn’t bother him, which it seems it doesn’t, then he was a very slow heart beat.
It’s frustrating to watch him right now. Early in the year every shot he took I expected it to find the net, now (like today on the breakaway) I just assume he’ll muff it. I liked Brick’s analysis of Savard on the PP on the NESN broadcast. It is nice to see Savy making those clever plays with confidence. If these two start clicking, it will be fun to watch.
