Johnny Damon's at the Bruins game with his new fiance, and let me say...WOWZA. Big tittied blonde with full lips is much better than the porker he use to be married to.

Absolutely INTENSE play by the Bruins so far tonight. They're hitting, playing solid fore and backchecks. Good puck movement, being a little creative, but also knowing when to just let 'er rip. Razor is playing superbly again so far.

 

Still, it's 0-0, and the Bruins will have to keep it that intense throughout.

Hey if the Bruins played like this the entire series, it would have been over by now.

 

 

I predict this game will go to 2OT.

Great to see the Habs win this series. They battled back and played very well tonight. They however, will have a very tough challenge against Tampa Bay. Good Luck to them.

Hey Bruins, welcome back to being the Black Sheep of the Boston sports scene. Hell, if this lockout goes long enough, the Revolution will be more popular than them.

 

I had a good feeling it was over once that first goal went in.

well, these playoffs have been fairly unpredictable so far, but im happy to say that I've had the Habs the whole first round

 

really wasnt expecting jersey and st.louis to be out right away, but whatever

 

all it takes now is for ottawa to win(and i really hope they do), and then with toronto out there will definitely be a lot of new matchups

 

tbay and montreal? i like the canadiens' chances

Awesome play by Thornton this series. I mean all those goals? And those assists?! MY GOD!!!

 

 

 

Raycroft played well for the most part, but Michael Nylander and Sergei Samsonov seemed to be the only constants.

 

Let's go (golfing) B's!!!

I hate to show my Hockey dis-intelligence but would someone explain to me what

"HABS" mean?

 

They are MONTREAL CANADIANS right?

Short for "les Habitants," an old nickname for the team.

Ah. Silly Canucks.

You know what? I'm not as hurt as I thought I would be after this loss. Why? Well, mainly because I half expected it. I mean, Jeremy Jacobs actually spent money on the team this year, and yet the thing still fell apart. But hey, I think what this series proved was a couple of things.

 

1. This team needs a healthy Joe Thornton to be effective.

 

2. A defensemen that plays more solidly throughout would be nice on your lower lines. Here's looking at you, Hal Gill.

 

3. Do not try to overproduce and be too creative. Go to the net, and let 'er rip. You can't be too "perfect" in your set-ups, especially in the playoffs.

 

4. Andrew Raycroft is a goalie to build around. He had an amazing season, and a very solid first playoff series. He was extremely solid tonight, save for the one goal. As it turns out, it was enough, but he kept the Bruins close when they should've been in the shitter.

 

5. The forecheck needs to be extremely strong. All the time. The dump and chase only works when you forecheck well.

 

6. This is a team that gets frustrated too easily. It will take unnecessary penalties at the worst times, especially tonight. Discipline needs to be emphasized.

 

This is still a team Boston should be proud of. It may have been awful later on in the playoffs, but it was a damn finer team than the Celtics will ever be. Here's hoping to a resolution in the collective bargaining agreement, because I am gladly a season ticker holder for next year.

 

And a quick rant: Who in the FUCKING HELL was in the press box tonight wearing Canadiens colors and waving a flag around after the game? Because you are bound by NHL Guidelines not to wear team colors, nor cheer before/during/after the game, or in the building, period. You're an objective member of the media, and can't be pulling that shit up there. I lost my passes FOR THEM???? (/end rant).

 

Anyways: I'll gladly have Philly come out of the east. Mainly cause Roenick's a local. Thanks B's for a putting a glimmer of hope in Boston winter sports, cause we all know the Celtics suck. Horrendously.

All of us with intelligence, anyway. I have a douchebag friend who is trying to convince me that the Celtics are winning the next four games.

 

Ah well. Fucking Bruins, we'll get 'em... next yeeear...
