Apparently JVR was the only guy who showed up to play :cool::D Still don't know what happen to D:eek:. It's getting to the point where I can't even watch Boosh:rolleyes:

I wonder if the "Mystery Man" will show up on Wed.

JVR is a real talent in the league and if Timmy wasn't so on he would have had 7 by himself. Both teams had too many posts hit and open nets missed. The Bruins D needs to stop giving up the breakaways.

Anyway, we'll see what happens Wednesday. Unfortunately it looks like I'm going to have to give up my tickets for that game and Friday because of travel :(

hell of a game last night.

The breakaways are because of the D being agressive and pinching down to keep the puck in the offensive zone. So far it has helped us more than it has hurt us, but the forward on the opposite side needs to be better at rotating over to cover for them.

that sucks. I am going tomorrow night.. section 310. First playoff game of this season for me, and I'm so excited.

Timmy is playing out of his mind, like he won't be denied.

I can't believe that the Wings are down 2-0. Didn't see that happening.

I didn't think that the Bolts would be up 2-0.....I thought they would split the games in DC. I do think that they'll take the series.


Anyone else think that the 1st round > 2nd round so far?

The two clear favorites being down 2-0 is definitely surprising, but its what makes the sport interesting. Round 1 was great though, with half of the series going to a 7th game.

Boucher played well last night. There was nothing he could do about that OT goal.. one timers like that are impossible to react to... it either hits your pads or goes in.


I can't wait for tomorrow night... the Garden is gonna be rockin.

Enjoy -- I haven't actually sold my tickets for Wednesday yet so I might go. My flight is really early the next morning though which will hurt badly.

Speaking of the Garden rocking -- I took this video at the end of Game 7. Sorry for the shaky quality but I was getting shaken, beer was flying, and it was generally crazy.

holy **** those are some awesome seats. I have only sat in loge once, I go for balcony every time. The atmosphere up there is always electric (plus I could only go to 1/5th of the games if I bought loge). tomorrow night is going to be my 9th game this season I believe.

"boston goal scored by NATHAN HORTON.. assisted by MILAN LUCIC" love it

Thanks :D - I have these seats for next year as well. I'll sell you a game at my cost if you want (which is basically $100/seat for regular season games). I'll probably have some games through the rest of the playoffs as well but even my costs are getting pretty high.

What was amazing is that at the same game I saw a lady get hit in the right side of the head with a puck -- IN ROW 2!! She took a puck on a poor clear from the other end of the nice right in the head. It just skimmed the low glass on the exact right trajectory. You'd think row 2 would be safe. We've had to duck a number of times to not get hit this year...
 
The blue t-shirts that the fans in TB are wearing are making it look like there are tons of empty seats. :p

Bolts are up 3-0. Very nice.


Woo-hoo......CBC coverage of the Canucks/Preds on Versus!

I might have to take you up on that next season.. thats not too bad. I imagine the costs are getting up there for playoffs though.. my tickets for tomorrow were $135 each face value off ticketmaster.. and that's balcony.

I guess she should have been paying better attention to the game so she could have ducked too

No problem. PM me.

We heard her glasses crack from getting hit - nowhere to hide. I'm certain from that angle no one saw it (they all ducked after she got hit!)

My tickets for this round were ~$175. Next round is ~$250 and then the finals are ~$330 -- per ticket. And that price is only because I committed to the whole package. It really is ****ery.

So far selling them hasn't been a big problem since I'm not looking to make a lot of money - just cover the costs of the games that I don't go to. Same with my tickets for next year.

Anyway - Looks like we are going to see Hnidy tonight. Hopefully his experience will make up for anything else.

Wow on Tampa -- holy crap. I love the "we're just a regular team and they are so much better than us" attitude -- then take 3 in a row.
 
Zio and Mooney
Enjoy the game tonight, it should be a good one ;) I will be watching it with my dog (wife and kids are work'n):D Every time I watch the game with my dog they win ;) I'm not too superstitious...:D By the way,my dogs name is " Clarkie " and no she's not a pitbull.

Peace

He won't play much though. When Chara missed that game against Montreal I believe Hnidy played only 4 minutes, and that was with their TOI leader not playing. I doubt we will see more than 5 minutes from him. Hopefully quaider will be back Friday, they said he was just day to day with a strained neck.. nothing too serious. Glad it wasn't a concussion.

Yup - and with Seids turning in some big numbers that will help as well. I'm glad that McQuaid didn't break his neck. That looked too much like Travis Roy (BU) from 1995.

have fun -- make some noise.

EDIT: Wahoo!!

Sweeeeeep for Tampa! They sure laid the smack down on the Capitals this series. It looks like the Bruins are well on their way on following the Bolts into the Conference finals with their 5-1 blow-out against the Flyers. Will the Flyers make another 4-3 comeback this year too? I doubt it. :eek:

I'd love to see the Flyers come back and win in game 7. And Tampa really brought their A game. Everyone stepped up, and that team is definitely going to be hard to beat.
 
Who really thought the Caps were going to win without Ovie... :p

Corrected.



I want to quote a paragraph from a sharks fan site (featthefin.com)

For the second straight postseason in a row the San Jose Sharks went into Joe Louis Arena with a 2-0 series lead. In what was previously a house of horrors for the Sharks, a place where dreams went to die, the Red Wings attempted to defend their home ice
And for the second straight year in a row, the San Jose Sharks prevailed.


This is exactly how I feel right now
 
Props to the Bruin's for out playing the Flyers in EVERY aspect of the game last night :cool: I think the tank is EMPTY... :rolleyes:

otav89 :(:(:(
 
The goalie situation in Philly makes my head spin... and it's been this way for years. They never seem to enter the playoffs with a clear #1.:confused:
 
You never know, the Flyers did it last season. Who's to say it won't happen this year?

Regardless what happens, Homer should trade Boosh, Leighton, and Carter in a package deal to the Panthers for Vokoun.

I'm thinking BRYZGALOV from Phx;) You can't blame it all on the goalie;)
Defensive breakdowns...:eek: Fowards not playing D...:eek:

Carter, Hartnell , Verstegg and Leno should go;)
