The NHL Thread

[QUOTE=molds13;175024]I know right? 6-0. THESE are the Wings I'm used to.[/QUOTE] 2 good games right now. Montreal just scored 2 goals in about a minute to put them up 3-2 over the Pens!

OK strike that, they gave the first goal to Bertuzzi...which means that Franzen had a natural hat trick in less than 4 minutes.

Bruins!!!

[QUOTE=molds13;175456]Bruins!!![/QUOTE] I know! BRUINS!!! Thanks god for that last minute goal because what was supposed to be a great day in Boston sports was slowly turning into a very depressing day. I love me some OT playoff hockey! :D

LETS GO BRUINS!!!! *claps*

[QUOTE=molds13;175456]Bruins!!![/QUOTE] That was huge. I need this ****it! The rest of my night has gone to hell.

[QUOTE=tatertots;175457]I know! BRUINS!!! [/QUOTE] Well, I did originally say BRUINS!! but the caps lock limit demoted it to non-yelling lettering :D

[QUOTE=Bacchus;175459]That was huge. I need this ****it! The rest of my night has gone to hell.[/QUOTE] Tell me about it. That lame little half slide that just happened was so depressing.

[QUOTE=molds13;175461]Well, I did originally say BRUINS!! but the caps lock limit demoted it to non-yelling lettering :D[/QUOTE] I hate when it does that. ;)

Nightmare night on all fronts. Need to regroup.

Is the Bruins game being shown on Versus back in NE? I still have the Pens game showing here but it says the Bruins game is starting in 1.5 hrs on Versus even though it's going on now. Very confusing.

I ****** LOVE Canada right now. They are showing the Pens-Habs game here on VS.

It all comes down to game 7 in Boston...

There have been some surprisingly close series and some unexpected winners. I am liking the playoffs this season.

I'm just gonna root for the underdog this season. The thought of an 8-7/6 match up for a conference champion scares me (especially when they're going against the winner of a 1-2 match up). Unless Chicago wins the West. Then I'm gonna have to cheer for them.

Go Bruins!

Ugh, that was just disgraceful. Maybe if I liked basketball more I might be happier about having one team in the playoffs right now...

I was actually watching the game the other night... [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mx2AxYxgqRA]YouTube - Zdeno Chara Hits Max Pacioretty (March 8 2011)[/url] I might be a Bruins fan, but I am not sure I agree with the [URL="http://www.montrealgazette.com/news/canada/Canadians+react+imposes+suspension+Chara/4415254/story.html"]NHL decision[/URL] on this matter. You get a real close view at around the 50 second mark and it looks absolutely brutal which is exacerbated by the fact that Chara has 50lbs+ and 7 inches of elevation on Pacioretty.

I don't think he should have been suspended. It definitely didn't appear to be intentional and Chara hasn't had any...suspendable? offenses in his entire time in the league (13 years, or something like that). I think it was just an unfortunate hit at an unfortunate time and place (and this is coming from someone who watched Patch play at Michigan). Plus, let's remember...Chara's got about 50+ lbs and 7 inches on most players in the NHL...6'9, 280 will do that to you.

At least the good people of Montreal are not overreacting concerning a check in a hockey game... [QUOTE]Montreal police launched an investigation Thursday into this week's devastating hockey hit on Montreal Canadiens forward Max Pacioretty. The investigation follows a recommendation from Quebec's director of criminal and penal prosecutions to the provincial department of public safety look into whether Tuesday night's hit, during a game in Montreal between the Canadiens and the Boston Bruins, could be considered criminal.[/QUOTE] [[URL="http://www.leaderpost.com/news/Quebec+police+probe+devastating+hockey/4415801/story.html"]via[/URL]]

I just saw that! You'd think the Montreal Police have better things to do...

I can't believe the B's just pulled that off...

Thank goodness! I care way more about Lord Stanley than Larry O'Brien and was going to be very sad if my B's got knocked out this early and so easily.

Let's go Blackhawks!! Finally showing some life tonight!

The Blackhawks will not go quietly into the night!

Ryder for Bruins backup goalie?

Dear Boston Bruins: Fire your national anthem singer. Immediately.
