Burke is probably looking for a home in Toronto. The Ducks have internal problems with our owner being suspended from NHL for SEC violations. Burke was making all the business decisions.

 

I will be thankful for Burke for making some of the decisions that led the Ducks to the Cup but he left the team with cap issues and did we really need Todd Bertuzzi.

Brown didn't get suspended. Which is good, I mean, because he can do the exact same thing to Ribeiro tomorrow.

A good game could have happened if the refs had allowed it. Chicago wanted to play, Boston wanted to play, the refs decided "that's enough of that" and proceeded to call every single little fucking thing. 18 penalties so far as we head to overtime. Byfuglien got his shit rearranged by Thornton for being the third man in, even though Byfuglien was the third man in, Thornton gets the instigator AND a 10 minute misconduct. That followed Khabibulin coming out and clotheslining Kobasew 10 feet out of the crease.

 

It's always sad when the refs decide to affect the flow of what could have been a fun, exciting, interesting game. Too bad. Instead of a wild 5-4 shootout, we will end with a 2-1 game marred by unnecessary penalties.

 

As I type this, Barker is called for a minor hook :32 into overtime that will likely decide the game. Unreal.

 

edit: HOW THE FUCK IS THAT A FUCKING PENALTY SHOT. Sharp was even with Ward, who swept down and got puck then Sharp. Nope, somehow that's a penalty shot. This might be the worst officiated game...of the week or something.

 

edit2: Of course this fucking weird game ends with PJ Axelsson of all people scores the winning shootout goal. Weird, weird, weird.

The Pittsburgh Penguins are exhibiting John Cena overcome the odds mentality, and it's fucking pissing me the fuck off. Once the Flyers gained the momentum and took a 4-3 lead after being behind 3-0, they should have won the game. I'm fucking tired of the Penguins. They got a big fucking break to tie the game tonight and Scott Hartnell doesn't know how to handle a puck on a breakaway. Yeah, not so much a win for the Pens as the Flyers losing it for themselves.

He's on his own. I have absolutely nothing positive to say about the Habs right now, nor negative about Bruins. Fuck the Patriots, I'm 0-1 for the week, but that's for another board.

 

What's going on in San Jose? Or, more accurately, with Calgary, who're down 5-0 25 minutes in. This will (likely) be their sixth loss in their past eight. Even the two wins were by just a goal after opening up big leads.

These are the real Flames, the kind that go on a little streak every now and then to scrape in to the playoffs. No real secondary scoring and shoddy defense with complete goonery to "fire up the team" when they get down (aka give the other team PP's to increase their lead). It is San Jose but still. I hate the Flames so I obviously enjoy when they get crushed.

Boston Bruins - 6

Eastern Conference All-Stars - 1

 

 

Oh wait, there are fans in Boston? Nice to show up.

 

Team gets rolled in more ways than one...attack the fanbase. Nice to see Habs fans are still the class of the league.

I didn't go anywhere near this game on Pro*Line. The Habs should have won in theory (success against the B's, back-to-back games for them in two cities), but I just had this hunch. My Mr. Burns principle "The one who always screws up..well, he's due for a good performance!" is a blessing and a curse.

They are, I mean 6-1 is pathetic. It's hurts even more because its a division rival.

Barry Melrose lasts 16 games in his triumphant return to the NHL after 14 years. WTG Barry!

 

My reaction upon reading this was uncontrollable laughter. Charter a plane to Bristol, Barry. Maybe you can be home in time to be made fun of on ESPNEWS during the 8 o'clock hour.

It's going to be like that Royal Rumble where Jerry Lawler was in and out in about 5 seconds, then came back and kept commentating as if nothing happened. :lol:

Eh, the Habs probably just had a bad night. Don't get the panties in a knot. Boston's a good team (unfortunately) and the Flyers will probably get steamrolled tomorrow night because I'm sure the Habs are quite pissed. Flyers don't have that anger in them when they blow a game, so I don't think they'll care either way if they lose. I'd like to see their record in the shootout since 2005, because if I can remember correctly, I think they've only won two or three in that THREE YEAR SPAN.

How in the fuck do you hire a coach and fire him after sixteen games? Even if he lost every single one of them, which he didn't? Fucking weird. Looks like they just wanted to embarrass him for some reason.

 

This is what happens when the owners have no idea how to run an organization.

Disappointed in the Bruins loss, but they ran out of gas in the third. Three games in four nights will do that. Still, to take five of a possible six points is fine by me. No rest for them either, four games next week.

Great game tonight in Montreal. Great play by both teams, and it was good that we controlled the game for the most part. When we collapsed defensively, Biron was there to close the door. If only we can get this solid an outing more often, I wouldn't get so mad. Now we have to hope not to have a letdown against Atlanta tomorrow night, who we steamrolled 7-0 a few weeks ago.
