Tim Thomas 11-22

Tim Thomas and -- who were open were talking here a couple of its. Just on on five year mean and wiggle. It is the is the Spanish term for that it's just unbelievable what he's been -- because you know you look at. Goals against number one point 78. Say oh my god this guy's unbelievable. Now. Let's face it -- we going to -- what Tim Thomas the goaltender for the Boston brought to. It's. Get arrested on how are you. Not -- -- welcome to the planet Mikey showed it was his program. Are no not very often because. If we're going to put my kid that all listening the next are you going to -- about our. New going to have to check it out because we have like a lot of people knew and invigorated emotions about the Boston Bruins this year part of its thanks to you my friend. You have a pretty nice little season error -- lead the league it was last Jimmy led the league in GAA. I don't know -- someplace -- -- I think as it. But not for the long I don't think. Mostly -- particular collection I was real high -- -- the -- would not vote against the. Yeah Iowa 944 save percentage right now it's just been a lot of fun outside and you know and and I know we all know that this areas say is a hotbed of hockey. Fervor however. And yet haven't really been represented affairs -- represented properly the last few years because of -- lot of different reasons but this has got to feel good for all the team. Made some viewers. To know that up people are fired up about the issues Bruins team. Yeah not. Now myself personally yet. Over the top played for the bruins' third I -- three years now I've been in the group organization basically the 2001. Not owning a lockout year -- I've been on time. And that got the you know how that. Other cities reacted to team and thank you part of the team that's giving the city what they do what they want the current team that they want and now you know -- to have success personally helpful. Now go back a -- -- your rug what 34 right. So you're you're born in 74 which is like a year or two after the Bruins last won a Stanley Cup. And of course the league has got bigger do you have that locked up problem all that stuff but. This is a a a town and I think is totally ready attempt to embrace. Run the Stanley Cup this year and is is the sick a feeling it's rampant amongst your teammates that you guys have what it takes this year. More so maybe than ever before to actually get that done. In yeah I definitely know that you know this is -- great sports town period but I I know that. Deep down there's a lot of our hockey town. Do you know -- acting not you know the photos of the parade after they won the cup and seven in 32. You know I've talked to old players that played here -- -- Simon. And that is the excitement there it's is that it under the surface it has been waiting and waiting a lot of people who -- -- by the woodwork. He pulled out of the sporting XL long but it had to take a lot of heat for not. The people who are fans of other sports that are. And not. So. You know it it's -- did that. We make those people crowd it amounts -- hey look former Bruins -- you know at the other part of your question I'm not trying to be a politician replica away. First. But yeah you know all we we feel we feel good about ourselves we feel good about -- what we've accomplished so far. Having said that well quarterly through the season. -- we want to take it one step at a time. And we want to continue to have any kind of expects the tests were having -- or more about unity years that comes closer right now. He's got a ticket. Now. You've been looking like you're you know that this is the kind of streak that people go onto and you know you hear the expression no you know you're get a -- of hot goaltender you can -- into the playoffs you're you know your hot goaltender right now what do you do to sustain this kind of thing. For an extended period time and his goal is goaltending like any other. Sport in the you have your your ups and downs as far as I don't lapses of concentration. Nor overall energy level -- anybody sustain that him. Are. Well. -- -- it's very Independent. It. You and you can have. I'm going to get you don't even notice that as a team not backed off you know you know. I I I personally I really don't. Even feel like. I don't know -- hot but that is the way that still I'd still like complain about my level at sort of played pretty well this in my life implant for. Rex in many years my career to that team is that. Playing so well along with me and it seemed. And that make my. It must step in. My result look so much better. -- -- You know lock out your -- and then. Not trying to -- and added fifteen shadow compared to -- While offs so now that that's the name of the team we can't pronounce -- we got our heads together here China. Trying to figure walker -- you look at it. No but you -- Helsinki. Yep. He sure -- -- just abusive swear word on the year but you know just as a -- And don't yeah. He simply a part time and Javier crafted ethnic. So you -- fifty shut outs and how many games over the or that I cleared out there is that accurate or. So get a bunch of guys around you were on the same page they they keep you -- they may help you avoid those situations that might make you stats look a little worse. Exactly and they you know -- -- -- -- the big up and down the big its willingness. In on the that ten game. Athletes you know ever there there are going to be gains that the other especially in the NXL. With 82 game season and I have kept us in the world is that. On any given night every team in the league can beat any other team in all it's. So that there would there will be the only blip on the radar but I I'd like to think that I can just keep playing in the same rather have them play and because. But -- tomorrow. You guys are six points ahead of Montreal. Their second place with 22 points now I gotta be honest with yet. -- as much as we'd all hoped and and and I thought this team would be improved I don't think anybody was quite ready. Four of the drastic improvement that you guys have made. You know 1234. Man that's nothing to sneeze at. And -- he Matra looking up at you guys what team Missouri is the team do you guys Agassi fear. But our most wary of in the east. Not then -- at this so far. Very that are there than it seemed like I think that. When that in this team has had this year's. You don't. I don't talk a lot of putter I haven't haven't. I would kind of don't have fear except. You know I mean that's like if I'm like wow or with how things are going to Lola I think now we're just -- in the referring at a rate that we're capable of they're not. So my point has so far we haven't played every team. You know and a bit of fire everybody that we played we. East Benoit was electric in Q what kind of night in night out basis that you don't win every game but I you know -- director in the back remind you like to think it. Hey you know we beat them in the playoff series and so I think. That we were apparently. You got some interesting stories on this team obviously the return of -- Patrice Bergeron is is huge and I'm sure the -- guys are all really young opponent for Hampton. A to produce in and get back to all that he was prior to his -- tragic accident there. That's one big story obviously that's going on which also got like Lucic is very very popular and -- because of his style of play. Is reminiscent to many of the fans here of of the wave Bruins hockey should be played from a musicality point of view. Yeah I mean not -- -- is that. It you have to pick the prototypical -- throughout the Bruins protect history I think he fits the mold. It on the back and he gets compared to camp nearly quite a bit I don't necessarily think that's fair at such young aides concede that he's his own person. You know in the play exactly like Cameron in back. He he plays that his own game but he. That a little bit everything you know put points on the board. It is just huge body check than that. And any goes down every once -- -- I -- hectic that you -- have been called find somebody who is that. Everybody would. Think of it -- you know hit the ball. He seems to like and not knocking people over consensus of the Hindu and a clubhouse does. Crack not too much we well. We -- mother guys that he had a -- ever a time with because you know certain big man back on burden -- pretty. But. Is that you walk the extra around the locker room to make fun and I've everytime I come near me I think about it and I decide better I think I've made Bledsoe took so -- Now you you've been added actually around to -- -- time if you take your University of Vermont years I mean it was a a stretch for you there. I'd that you you were -- go by the Quebec nor -- I -- it seems like a long long time a golfer guy you're rates. Yeah -- he had no I access to throw that out the young kids make them feel like -- I'll hold its respect. -- but I think Garrett you know some funny that -- we've. Yeah many figured out a couple weeks goes I think we -- both -- about expect verdict in the same draft junior yeah he -- I think so I mean not. -- -- stuck in my locker rooms so I can remember. Exact year I think all the money for a I don't know protects -- heading into anymore I have been both originally drafted -- back in the same here. Well now last night they obviously early in the first period was was tough for him he settled down nicely. Antigua DC your your your partner out they're getting killed a little bit early and out of Bruins came back you know -- a big way and an obviously yeah. The outcome of the game was was -- just wonderful but that's got via a little bit tough. For you or for him to watch your haven't -- period out there. Yeah well it's like gap or yet. First you know from watching the game. You realize that he can be blamed for any of those cold then they're open -- he realizes that because that's what if I was playing. I'd -- now you know that settled down and not that you figured that out needed -- and active period. You know came up with a win so but it part -- wasn't. Thinking about -- Everett mean. I'd like I'd like to hope that I think that don't happen. In the ever but it's going to happen. The pocket and bounce and if I hear reactor and I think he he reacted well you know we come out with a win that I was and that I think -- of course that. They would equally importantly what we won the game the other two point. You're too. I was born in Flint, Michigan you're an American goaltender -- the ever used the the Canadian reference of standing on your head to actually have you ever actually stand stood on your head in the between the pipes. Yeah actually have physically I act. And yet that the Clay -- not practice there. Wanna when I was well not too much younger -- into the NHL but I did that needs -- engineers -- as kind of restricted and a man had a mountain have execute they couldn't they couldn't committed to this looked like after the -- try to Earth's. You have video of that my friend. No I don't I don't I I could probably still do it. -- -- The team might not like you screwing around with that stuff right now the way things are going but may be right in the season and you know you guys win -- win the -- -- -- -- -- publicity -- for next -- -- -- -- Well listen Tim it's been great talking to you best of luck with the -- and the Bruins were all really happy proud you guys the job we do and so army you've got a record it's. Right now comparable with the with Detroit and you're right at the top of the top of the crop here and a world really happy for. McDermott will talk -- you soon. Tavis everybody's the goaltender for the the 123 and four. Boston Bruins will get back in action tomorrow night we have Celtics action for it tonight right here on his radio station coming up with a pregame at 725 right after the shortened version of the planet --
