Frozen_Puck: FastJeff: I'm a Habs fan anyway.

Nice, me too. Nice to meet you. Hopefully we'll be here talking about our team next year. :-)

God, we can only hope. If they get a good GM and a good coach, perhaps they can get it together. Because they're a farking mess right now.

Also, mmmmm, Braden Holtby.

paj		2012-04-21 03:22:11 PM

Game on!

change1211		2012-04-21 03:22:15 PM

Heh, the Bruins backup goalie stops a puck before their starter.

Silvara		2012-04-21 03:23:26 PM

Laugh...well, the announcers and I were thinking the same thing at the same time. "What the hell was that?"

FiendishFellow05: pregerstheHobo: FiendishFellow05: All right Boston, let's take the series lead and go back to Washington with the Caps up against a wall.

Obligatory:

I've always been curious about why boston and chicago, especially chicago feel so proud of their so few cups? They were in a league with only six teams for so long that you would think it would be more of an embarassment.

Don't want a flamewar, I'm only starting a thought that's been in my head for awhile. This is a serious question.

That's a screen cap from an ad that ran during the 2011 playoffs. We have 6 including the one we just one. And while you'd think we'd have more, we rank 4th in number of Cups won (behind Montreal, Detroit and Toronto, in that order). So we're proud of what we've got - it's more than most.

/Uh, Holtby looked like a serial killer there. Yikes.

I'll take that.

Russ Feingold's Brass Balls		2012-04-21 03:23:30 PM

Some Bruin just when all Juablo going for that puck.

ytterbium		2012-04-21 03:23:43 PM

Nice... smart kid!

Haha, Caps just shoved Thomas into his net!

Pituophis		2012-04-21 03:25:12 PM

Well that was...interesting.

Silvara		2012-04-21 03:25:31 PM

Oh man....wtf?

You slam a guy into your goalie (which the Bruins are good at), and the guy who got slammed in gets a penalty?

FiendishFellow05		2012-04-21 03:25:34 PM

That...was a clusterfark.

ytterbium		2012-04-21 03:25:35 PM

No he made no attempt to stop.

robsul82		2012-04-21 03:25:48 PM

Bruins to the PP.

Like you said, they're good at that.

ununcle		2012-04-21 03:25:52 PM

Bruins PP yeah!

And I hope they get another shot at the Bruins. Came so close to putting them out. Still, was one of the best series I seen in a really long time.

Primitive Screwhead		2012-04-21 03:26:10 PM

They poked the bear!!!!!

That's how it works for the Capitals. However, if we do it, it's going to go against the D-man.

FiendishFellow05		2012-04-21 03:26:46 PM

And this afternoon, Washington vs. The Keystone Cops. Seriously, that was the most lackadaisical faceoff ever.

I_Love_Cheesecake		2012-04-21 03:27:01 PM

Ting!

paj		2012-04-21 03:27:06 PM

TINK!

Frozen_Puck		2012-04-21 03:27:08 PM

Lucic is probably NOT amused, could take a run at Holtby soon. He's good at THAT.

TING!

robsul82		2012-04-21 03:27:10 PM

TING!

RsquaredW		2012-04-21 03:27:12 PM

Another TT blocker punch to the face, no match penalty. Someone needs to stop that douchebag.

Primitive Screwhead		2012-04-21 03:27:15 PM

No, he was trying to stop and got helped in. But the ref missed the push.

Speaking of which, Rush has a new album coming out later this year. Dr, Krieger is pleased.

Also, post!

Hah...I think the idea has been bounced around a bit. It would be completely awesome. If for nothing else, it'd give a major boost to the team.

FastJeff		2012-04-21 03:27:59 PM

Looks like Chara isn't holding back. Will ending up blasting holes through Caps defenders to get a goal.

Theseus		2012-04-21 03:28:25 PM

well the Bruins managed one shot on the PP, so progress, right?

robsul82		2012-04-21 03:28:27 PM

Caps kill the penalty.

ununcle		2012-04-21 03:28:35 PM

What the fark Bruins. Take a shot!

ytterbium		2012-04-21 03:28:35 PM

desertgeek: ytterbium: No he made no attempt to stop.

Yeah, saw that on a different angle. First replay it had a goal-level shot, seemed more deliberate.

I_Love_Cheesecake		2012-04-21 03:28:40 PM

Nice save, Timmy.

Frozen_Puck		2012-04-21 03:28:45 PM

Damn, thought Washington was gonna get one there!!

Man, I missed you guys yesterday! Thank the hockey gods I am off today with no where else to go. Shopping? Done. Yard work? Done. Beer? Cold. Let's do this!

robsul82		2012-04-21 03:29:03 PM

Thomas with a great save.

lunchinlewis		2012-04-21 03:29:33 PM

Yeah, that's been a rumor for a little while now it seems. Lots of articles lately about how Roy would be open to discussions. I wouldn't hate it. I've also heard Pierre McGuire's name thrown around for GM though?

Silvara		2012-04-21 03:30:26 PM

ytterbium: Yeah, saw that on a different angle. First replay it had a goal-level shot, seemed more deliberate.

Yeah, when you see it on a different angle you see he was starting to try to stop and then got a bit of help.

Yay!! Good to see you :)
