Unfortunately it is looking more and more to me that neither Boston nor Tampa Bay has the defense to beat the Canucks. I hope I am wrong, but I have a bad feeling about this.

If the Canucks win the Cup, might be the first Cup celebration I do not watch.

The Bolts defense may not be playing that great, but if they are able to cut out the sloppy turnovers, they definitely have the offense to keep up. A lot of Boston's goals in this series have come from bad turnovers that were the fault of Tampa Bay's poor puck handling and not because the Bruins played it well.

I have a feeling that game 7 will be another one where the Bolts give up some soft goals and Thomas stands on his head when it is needed most. If Boston does win on Friday, never mind the cup celebration, I won't be watching the series at all.

Agreed about the Bolts offense, Robert, my concern was their defense and goaltenders' abilities to stop the Canucks.

Bruins Fan · 05-26-2011, 03:02 PM

The problem with the B's is the coach, he will not change,he don't fix a problem he just sticks with what he is doing.
There are guys on the power play that have not scored a point in 17 games and they keep playing.
With Julian as long as you skate your lane and finish a check you can play.

If the Bolts do win on Friday, we may see some high scorings finals matches. Can the bolts put out both goalies and have one less forward?

I understand trust me. However, I put the hatred of the team and fans aside at that point and look at the individuals. They work their a$$ off their entire life and I mean from a very young age with the dream of one day holding The Cup above their heads. The sacrifices they and their families aand I mean mom, dad, siblings, wives and kids is hard to understand if you have never been a player or player family member. The smiles on the faces tell the story in it's self. Hell, if the Devils won I would watch the celebration to see those smiles
and I friggin hate the Devils!

I totally understand your point as well, Al, and have done it (watched) every year. Watched Mario and Jaromir skate the Cup around our house in '92, and several other teams I wasn't a fan of. But that is the issue this year, I don't like many of the Canucks as individuals eiither. Hell, I probably like Raffi Torres more than anyone on that team, and I'd like to punch him in the face.

Point taken though...I seriosuly doubt, as a true hockey fan, that I will be able to change the channel.

icehog3 · 05-27-2011, 09:47 AM

Have my own game at 8PM CDT tonight, so I will be watching Game 7 on delay. See y'all after I am done....Hoping for a great game.

Ahbroody · 05-27-2011, 10:19 AM

Raffi Torres? Hes the biggest douchebag cheap player on that team!

I am sure I will watch, but I am still holding out hope someone rips the team and citys heart out. To much crap out of that city in particular over the past 10 years (I wont rehash) to want them to experience that joy. Stuff happens both ways, but a majority of it seems to come from there. Maybe I wont watch actually.

How come I dont remember other teams spraying confetti all over the ice so players cant skate in past conference finals?

Bruins Fan · 05-27-2011, 10:50 AM

How about the douche bags in Tampa,sore winners.
Yeah Horton threw a water bottle back at one.
I think the last thing you want to do is start throwing stuff at someone that just lost a hard fought game.
The B's were getting pelted with noise makers
Krejci got hit in the head.

i noticed that live. I was think why the hell would you give out something cheap that people will throw.

Ahbroody · 05-27-2011, 12:53 PM

Im not condoning any of this, but Bruins fans threw $hit on the ice after you lost a game this series.
So before anyone gets on their high horse and speaks ill for doing something your fans did you may want to stop and think.

. No one likes hypocrites.

The fact a tampa player didnt get hit by debris thrown from a Bruins fan could have just been luck.

Bruins Fan · 05-27-2011, 01:15 PM

I didn't see any Bruins tossing stuff in the stands.
There are a few clowns in every arena,including yours Mike

Exactly my point! I hate the rest of them more than I hate Torres!

I thought the Tampa fans throwing chit at the Bruins was classless. I know that some Bruins fans were throwing stuff on the ice after game 5, but the Bolts fans seemed to be trying to hit the Bruins players.

Apparently the Tampa fans don't know their hockey history.

I never said there wasnt. Im not the one talking ill of the tampa fans doing something fans from my own arena have done. I will try to find the video. I was going to post it when it happened but decided not to. I dont know how you missed it if you watched the game it was clear in the vs feed. They cut away not to show it when it started.

Edit I saw the Boston fans do it after game one where the lost. So if Tom saw it after game 5 that makes two games.

. So lets realize that all fans can get stupid. I just remember being shocked Bs fans were littering the ice after the first game.

Wow Tom thats some deep hate. Torres is scum with a history to back it up.

Is it as classless as the Bruins players gooning it up after every game they lose? How about Horton spraying fans with water and tossing the water bottle at them? And as we have already seen, the Bruins fans throw stuff on the ice too. I think it was game seven this year with the Canadiens where the fans were throwing stuff at the players as they lined up to shake hands. And there was also at least one game in this series where Boston fans threw stuff onto the ice. I don't agree with the fans throwing stuff intentionally at the players, but they aren't going to get hurt by that little plastic toy. Classless? Maybe. When you act like classless goons, you shouldn't be surprised when you get it in return.

icehog3 · 05-27-2011, 04:29 PM

Robert, I have no dog in this fight as I am neither a Bruins nor a Bolts fan. In facty, I like the Thrashers better than both of them.

But the Bruins players gooned it up? Right...they are players, and it is hockey. Fans don't get the right to throw stuff at the players for the price of admission.

E.J. · 05-27-2011, 04:45 PM

Pretty excited for the game.... Don't know what it is, because this series has not grabbed me....

Don't like either team, don't dislike either team... I was going to cheer for TB just because I thought it would be a Hell of a travel series, Vancouver to TB... But wiki knowledge tells me that the distance "as the crow flies" is only a hundred miles difference...

Need to find something to smoke...........
