The hockey gods are making it seem like they're trying to have Boston miss the playoffs. Kobasew out 4-8 weeks.
Hope Boston gets in to spite them.

We will persevere! We've battled injuries all year long, but we have more heart than anyone!

I have lost 2500 in the last 2 days, but I'm still happy! If only Washington or Philly would lose games. 92 might not be enough!


Also, Serge if you haven't been watching, Krejci is playing amazing. He's going to be gold next year.

Helllllllllooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo PLAYOFFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



WOW! I'm on such an incredible high right now! Thomas eats Senators for breakfast! We are IN!

Best case now is a Washington loss, and us playing Carolina. That would still be a tough series but I am thinking Car > Pitt > Mon as far as who we play. Although how SWEET JUSTICE and VINDICATION it would be for us to play the Habs and win in 4 straight!! Oh my God, just thinking about it is giving me a sergegasm!

thinking about playing the Habs should give you cold sweats, but you are right, it would be a short series.

I would rather play Ottawa, Boston or Philly in the 1st round over Washington or Carolina and I would love to play Washington in the 2nd round.

If the boston doesn't play the Habs in the 1st round, I hope they play Carolina and move on to the 2nd round to play the habs. That would be a good series.
Zach6668
You won't have to worry about Washington or Carolina until the 2nd round anyways. They'll either get 3rd, or be out.
troyomac
This is sooooooo sick! I'm friggen ecstatic! We could end up playing Pittsburgh, Montreal, Carolina, Washington, or New Jersey.


ANNNNND there's possibilities of Patrice being back!!!!!!!




Also, you can't know how impressed I am with all the young guys stepping up this year battling through all the injuries. I can't wait to see our team in 2 or 3 years!
coesillian
Krejci and Sergei kostitsyn are tied for 13th in scoring amongst rookies with 27 pts in 55 and 51 games played respectively. Krejci was picked 68th overall in 2004 while Sergei was picked 200th overall in 2005.

This isn't a knock on the Bruins, just a casual observation. Impressive job by both.

I can see why you'd be happy to play the Habs. That 0-7-1 record against them should give you allot of confidence.

I obviously don't expect to win the series against any of those teams, but there's always a chance.

Remember when Ottawa owned Toronto all year long then the Leafs beat them in the playoffs. It's a whole new season!

I want to play Montreal the least out of those teams, but there's a good chance we'll play them. I am excited though no matter who we play!

congrats to Ray and the Bruins. After all the injuries, after everyone said they were a bottom of the conference team, they still made the playoffs. thats a pretty impressive feat.

Tim Thomas, WEEEEE. Your reactions are superb.
Milan Lucic, you're so good but you can't buy beer yet.
Marc Savard, hey bud.
Phil Kessel, hurt to just sit and watch?

Never really thought about this... how weird is it that he can't even go to the pub and celebrate a win with a nice cold one.

Another reason why Canada > America smile.gif

Not sure what happened to this guy....He was dubbed as the American Sidney Crosby the year before his draft, and I know he had a serious health scare with cancer, but pretty much he hasnt lived up to the hype..

I like the guy though and hopefully he can come back and have a great career..The kid is only 20..
Zach6668
Don't think he was every hyped up to be as good as Crosby.

It's his 2nd year in the NHL, for some guys, it takes a few years to adjust. He's probably still a top 6 guy in the long run. Certainly not a franchise player though. His tout pre-draft was probably a bit exaggerated, though.

Healthy Scratch.
Apparently not buying into the system of Julien. Which I would guess would mean taking care of his own end. Savards line has been better in game 2 and 3 without him so I wouldn't expect him back anytime soon unless there is an injury.

He was a HUGE prospect as he was the go to guy on the US junior team for 2 years straight. This guy was supposed to be as good as Crosby (I know Zach he is not though). This hype was probably more of a pipe dream for the US media.

What makes it worse is that I am in 4 pools and have him in 3 and he's watching from the stands.

Uh Thomas was pathetic in game 1, and Price is the only reeason we are up in this series. I'd say as of this moment its pretty clcearly price playing better.

Some nice words from a professional gambler...www.sportswagers.ca

BOSTON +1.00 over Montreal PINNACLE

The Bruins have suddenly made a series out of this and have progressively gotten better with each passing period. An argument can be made that the Habs should be down 2-1 instead of up 2-1. Now the Bruins will come into this game with that proverbial monkey off their backs and a serious boost of confidence to go along with it. The Bruins continue to play a sound defensive style and frankly, they’re just a tough team to beat, period. Then there’s Milan Lucic, a guy who refuses to lose and has absolutely been the best player on the ice in this series. Lucic is a monster and will attract a heap of attention tonight, which could lead to others getting some good scoring chances. The Habs appear to be a little frustrated, especially on the power-play and that’s a huge part of their game. Bruins are dangerous and the Canadiens know it. Play: Boston +1.00 (Risking 2 units).

As the Bruins fan, I actually agree with this.

Both my computers are not working, so I'll be on very rarely until I get my laptop back from being fixed..guy said 7 to 10 business days. GO BRUINS in the mean time though!
WestcoastCanuck
No comments on Sinden throwing everyone under the bus? I was never a Marc Savard fan, but he has been one of the best players in this series. What a clown.
Zach6668
I liked Julien's comment about it. "He says that from Florida, right?"
No_Neck
It will be interesting to see how Price bounces back after give up two soft goals last night...


Lets at least go to game 7.

Congrats Ray! Great series and Boston played great. Being a Habs fan I've always hated the Bruins but I hate them now more because they are so hard to hate. I don't think anyone has more fun than Tim Thomas and Lucic is a monster. Boston and Montreal are definitely two teams that look to have a great future.

Good series, however the Habs were exposed in several of the games, and even the Montreal fans will agree that the Bruins could of easily won this series..

Congrats anyways to the Bruins for putting up a great series.
