Game 6 - Bruins @ CBJ

[NYCSox]

TWO U’s TWO K’S

And two series wins. For now.

 

[scotian1]

Rask was phenomenal in that game!

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

No way to know for sure besides the way they have played late in games, but this squad appears to be extremely well-conditioned for the most part. They have been dominant in 3rd periods. Things were a little wonky the other night obviously but on the whole they have been so good closing out. They weathered the inevitable desperate rushes tonight and threw the knockout punches instead of just sitting back in the shell.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

They won’t announce a schedule until this round ends, correct?

 

[LogansDad]

Holy shit, guys. Eastern Conference Finals.

FUCK YEAH

 

[The Mort Report]

I kinda want a Bruins/Avy finals. Ill go back there for atleast a week

 

[Dollar]

Ten years later, it's time for payback for that Scott Walker OT goal in Game 7.

 

[FL4WL3SS]

Tickets in Carolina were $190 for the first game they host. Might bite the bullet.

Do it, totally worth it.

 

[Detts]

F

That fucking prick should have been suspended for that game too.

 

[scotian1]

Torts should remember that guarantees are for toasters.

 

[TSC]

I'm absolutely going to a game in Carolina.

Just need to see the schedule and I'm there.

 

[Jordu]

Point leaders for the series, each with 4: Marcus Johansson had a goal and three assists, Pastrnak had four goals, Coyle and Krejci had two goals and two assists.

 

[Norm Siebern]

This was my first thought as well. That pissed me off to no end.

 

[Dollar]

Count me in for a RMPS bash in Carolina depending on the schedule.

 

[Norm Siebern]

I just noticed it tonight for the first time, but Rask has more than a passing resemblance to Leonardo DiCaprio.

 

[DJnVa]

Do it, totally worth it.

Gonna depend on the day of the week...only 2.5 hour drive though.

 

[DJnVa]

Someone should start a thread.

 

[veritas]

I'm scouting flights around when game 3/4 should be. So down for a RMPS bash in Carolina. I promise I won't wear my Canes' #19

 

[Detts]

1.5 for my wife and I before we move away. Also need to force Tim.

 

[TSC]

Marchand, fucking lol

 

[The Napkin]

Anybody else see Marchand's on ice interview?

 

[Dan Murfman]

Well right now their is a tentative Celtic game scheduled for Friday so I’m thinking game 1 will be Thursday night and game 2 Saturday.

 

[TFP]

Tuukka painted his masterpiece tonight. Just an absolute goaltending clinic all night long.

Extremely satisfying win. The Bruins made a million smart, subtle plays all game. Much more like the team I know they can be.

Evidently playoff hockey is too intense for people to read posts before replying.

Or was the 'major that doesn't exist' really that subtle of a joke?

I’m just catching up now but for what it’s worth I got it on the first read.

 

[The Long Tater]

Kitty Hawk. Checking in. Set it up

YES!

 

[lexrageorge]

Well right now their is a tentative highly unlikely Celtic game scheduled for Friday so I’m thinking game 1 will be Thursday night and game 2 Saturday.

Fixed typo for you.

So may it be said. So it may be so.

Wow, time flies...also...looking it up tells me that game one of the ECF started on May 18. That's friggin late, right?

 

[FL4WL3SS]

Gonna depend on the day of the week...only 2.5 hour drive though.

I see what you did there, built in the excuse already in case you don't go.

 

[catomatic]

This was my first thought as well. That pissed me off to no end.

Aaron Ward's jaw broken by Scott Walker's absolute sucker punch and no suspension. Let's not forget that, either.

Context for the Marchand interview:

 

[McBride11]

No---the tickets were for whenever they hosted the first game in Raleigh.

Got ya. I got excited.
But at 3-3.5 hours I need a weekend

 

[RedOctober3829]

Gotta think the series will start on Thursday so NBC gets Bruins for Saturday 8 pm prime time game.

This. Columbus physicalaty dropped off a cliff after game 4. They couldn't keep that pace for a full series. Bruins got stronger as it went on despite having to play a 7 game series and not having all that time off

 

[Zososoxfan]

This was tuukkas Series. I love all the forwards - really tough to play against 4 solid lines. Krejci continues to play very well. I’ll be interested to see how the d holds up against the canes.

 

[SoFloSoxFan]

I've been watching as much as I can on public wifi in south Florida. It's been enjoyable. Eight wins to go.

 

[Dummy Hoy]

Butch deserves a lot of credit for what a phenomenal 3rd period team this is.

 

[TFP]

Butch deserves a lot of credit for what a phenomenal 3rd period team this is.

If he could fix the 2nd periods they’d be unbeatable.

But I agree

 

[RedOctober3829]

 

[cshea]

Rask had .951 save percentage the whole series. Monster.

 

[Dummy Hoy]

It's like night and day. Thank god for Tuukka.

Edit: I felt good coming in, but once they got out of the second tonight, I wasn't sweating a thing. They grind the shit out of games in the third, it's a joy to watch.

 

[TheoShmeo]

Rask's play inspires a lot of confidence. I'm very optimistic. Only halfway home but this is the kind of goalie play that makes winning possible.

 

[TFP]

Rask had .951 save percentage the whole series. Monster.

I think that’s just his 5 on 5 numbers.

He was .948 overall. Monster.

 

[Saints Rest]

I kinda want a Bruins/Avy finals. Ill go back there for atleast a week

If that came to pass, the Bruins would have played a 5, an 8, a 7, and another 8. Does it get any easier than that?

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

Aaron Ward's jaw broken by Scott Walker's absolute sucker punch and no suspension. Let's not forget that, either.

Only 2 mins for a hit to the head.

 

[Red Right Ankle]

DOOOOOOOUGIE

DOOOOOOOOOOOOGUIEEEEEEE

 

[Myt1]

Absolutely. I'd say better.

Outstanding.
