This year's Bruins team has thrived under adversity. Chara goes down with injury in November? No problem, next man up. Bergeron goes down the next game? No problem, next man up. Pastrnak goes down in February? No problem, next man up.

It was the same in the playoffs. Toronto goes up 1-0? Fine, Tuukka's just gonna stop everything the next game. Then Toronto goes up 2-1? Fine, we'll drop a 6-spot on you and then let you get close to think you have a chance. Now Toronto goes up 3-2? Don't worry about it, Bs play their best game of the year in Game 6 and then leave no doubt in Game 7.

So now the cute little Blue Jackets have a 2-1 series lead and they like to shoot off cannons in their building because apparently Ohio has some kind of great war history despite Wikipedia telling me that less than 2,000 men have ever died in battles fought in the state of Ohio. Oh, and to top it off, the cannon is a model used by the French during the Civil War. Nothing like using a French military instrument to try to spur your team to victory. Yippee.

This team from Columbus and their overconfident fans need to be put in their place. And that place is understanding that making it to the second round of the playoffs and winning a couple games doesn't mean shit. Because your hot goalie isn't really that hot, he just got saved by three posts on rockets that he had no chance of stopping last game. Tonight, that tide turns, and Fraudrovsky will shrivel.

I expect nothing less than a 4-1 Bruins victory tonight.

Do not rip their hearts out. I want them alive for the coming destruction.
Who’s going to win the Derby?

Backes is a monster. Never would have thought I'd say that in the regular season. And no one can ever say anything ever again about Tuuka.

I was wrong about Backes in the Toronto series and I was wrong tonight. I didn’t want him anywhere near this game. Glad to be wicked wrong. Woot.

Am I misremembering or was Backes also pretty solid in the playoffs last year? Feel like I remember him doing the same kinda stuff.

Was putting my four year old to bed and missed the penalty shot. What was the fluky occurrence that led to it?
