I am first off going declare that i am a big Bruin fan so I am not at all Complaining, but what is going on with Ballard. I havn't watched him at all this season but I can recall over the years watching the Bruins, Panthers games that he was a very good defenceman, even all-star like.

Boy did he look bad so far in game 4. I know now why he wasn't in the line up more often. Was he like this all year?Maybe Bowmiester made him look better than he actually was.

He hasn't been bad all year - he started slowly in Sept/Oct, and never really got it going. He played extensively in Jan/Feb/Mar because of the injuries and was pretty good, but once the top-6 got back into the lineup he came out.

He has had a pretty brutal game tonight for sure - I think its probably more rust than anything, he hasn't been in the lineup since early round 2 or late round 1. But with Hamhuis injured and Rome suspended, they have to get him going.
