half-way there! gogogo

**Tomturkey46** · 05-10-2011 01:57 PM

Yes 17 years BUT we made it to the Cup final and gave them a run for it!

The Turkey

**bigred** · 05-10-2011 05:31 PM

It'll be at least another year before you win a cup

The Bigred

**Miffed22001** · 05-10-2011 05:36 PM

San Jose vs Tampa IMO

San Jose vs canucks will go 7, but i reckon tampa will wipe up boston 4-1

**bigred** · 05-10-2011 05:52 PM

I'm predicting SJ > VAN 4-2

Boston > Tampa 4-2 (possibly 3)

The Bigred

JL · 05-13-2011 04:15 AM

Bring it on Sharks!

Van > SJ 4-2
Bos > TB 4-2

**donkbee** · 05-13-2011 06:30 PM

I'm disappointed that game didn't go to triple OT or something.

Get used to disappointment for the rest of the playoffs if you're not a bruins fan.

**a500lbgorilla** · 05-13-2011 08:08 PM

Implying that only the Bruins fans are truly prepared for disappointment?

Quality spin sir.

JL · 05-16-2011 03:01 AM

This series is gonna be so good

**donkbee** · 05-16-2011 03:03 AM

omg i know, thank god no more predators!!!

**donkbee** · 05-16-2011 03:04 AM

emotion right off the bat even before the puck dropped, this is more like it!!

**Penneywize** · 05-16-2011 04:09 AM

so yeah I am starting to dislike vancouver on the basis of their fans screaming LLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU on even the most routine saves

really annoying imo

chant goalie's name when he's playing out of his mind, not making peewee stops

I still like the green men though.

why? because you thought they might win or for other reasons.

Obviously for other reasons...those reasons being that the games were low-scoring and boring compared to Chicago/San Jose

**Sasquach991** · 05-17-2011 03:10 PM

I guess I like one goal games. A 3-1 or 4-1 game is boring unless the losing team is know for comebacks. You could tell the Sharks were sitting on a lead and knew the nucks would eventually comeback.

I guess you like 4-3, 5-4 games better but I like defensive games where one goal can be huge.

JL · 05-18-2011 03:07 AM

Crazy game between Boston and Tampa. Should have been more like 6-3 but Thomas was not good at all.

JL · 05-19-2011 03:57 AM

**Alexos** · 05-19-2011 06:33 AM

the green men have some competition!!

**donkbee** · 05-19-2011 06:46 AM

wheeeeeeeeee

**bikes** · 05-19-2011 07:24 AM

LETS GO! ANYONE BUT THE CANUCKS! literally anyone will do.

I'm rooting for Tampa Bay in the east. Roloson needs a cup!

My good friend (also from Edmonton) says.. "I don't know if I'd want to live in a world where Vancouver has won a cup".

**Penneywize** · 05-19-2011 05:14 PM

try as I might, I just can't root for Vancouver. Sorry Courtie / JL etc. I'll only be able to root for em if they end up playing Boston in the final. Then, all will be forgiven.

JL · 05-19-2011 07:59 PM

It's all good. I was rooting against Montreal last year when they made it this far.

**donkbee** · 05-20-2011 05:14 PM

I would cheer for Montreal but root against Toronto.

I hate all these early game starts. I guess I can forgive 6 pm, but 12 pm on Sunday??? That's SCOOP Main Event day. FML

**donkbee** · 05-21-2011 03:52 AM

I hate San Jose and their fans SO much. Like stop with the hits from behind already. Apparently they need to take out all our defensemen and spend a third of the game on the power play to have a fucking hope.

**donkbee** · 05-25-2011 08:36 PM

i pretty much can't believe this is real.

**Galapogos** · 05-26-2011 12:16 AM

Kesler's pretty badass. Anyone think that was a cramp and not a real injury? His recovery was a little too miraculous even with whatever insane drugs they're able to pump into them to keep them going.

**meeloche** · 05-26-2011 04:28 AM

Cortisone shots are a magical thing.

**meeloche** · 05-26-2011 04:29 AM

Also respect for thorton, playing the most minutes of any san jose forward with a separated shoulder, thats impressive.

**donkbee** · 05-27-2011 09:24 AM

I definitely have huge respect for Thornton.

Game 7 tomorrow! I'm looking forward to it.

**Galapogos** · 05-28-2011 12:50 AM

Pffft, that's nothing compared to having your eye shot out!

Insane recovery if he makes it back in time for the finals though:
Updated: Malhotra cleared for practice with contact

JL · 05-28-2011 03:01 AM

Boston Tampa game 7 was very good. That's the definition of how a 1-0 game can be epic...not a single penalty all game.

Bring it on Bigred!

**flomo** · 05-28-2011 03:51 AM

Go Bruins!

**BankItDrew** · 05-28-2011 06:50 AM

I have $250 riding on this series. Going with the Canadian team.

easy money

**a500lbgorilla** · 05-28-2011 03:01 PM

Boston in 1. Those Canuckians will refuse to play another game after they taste Bruin hockey. Go America!

Besides, everyone knows that Canadians only stole hockey from the Massachuset tribe of the early Americas. The Canucks play today is an insult to the rightful ancestors of the sport. It's time the championship returned to its proper home.

**bigred** · 05-30-2011 01:04 AM

Fuck yeah Bruins...and America!

**Galapogos** · 05-30-2011 05:09 AM

So if the Bruins lose will that make america the inferior country?

That's like asking if the Sun doesn't rise tomorrow, will Africa have the best beaches?

**bigred** · 05-30-2011 03:44 PM

It's just hockey...

I look at it this way: still neither of us is Sweden.

**a500lbgorilla** · 05-30-2011 06:45 PM

And still none of us are the Great Galactic Mexican Alliance. That doesn't change the fact that Boston wins this series.
