Missed last week's 2 games in Czech while I was in NYC, but finally getting to watch a game live now - Ryder just scored to go up 2-1 on the Devils in the 2nd. This team seems to still have the same problems as last year, but may actually score some goals this season. Let's hope.
Man I fucking hate Jack Edwards so much. If this thread lasts the season expect to see me bitching about him every game ... he's such a fucking TOOL.
yeah, like the scoring from so many lines. Caron & Seguin look like they belong. Krejci/Looch/Horton line looks awesome. I just wish they had dumped Wheeler in the off season, that dude bugs me.
And how about Thomas? Back to his 2009 level of play, so far!

I like Wheeler, or more accurately the *idea* of Wheeler. He's a big kid who can stickhandle through traffic with ease. If he could play up to the physicality you'd expect from someone with his frame he'd be a front line goal scorer for years. As it stands he's got the tools to coast along the way he's been doing and still come out of it with a decade long career as a second or third line guy on a few playoff teams.
I think I just realized he's the JD Drew of hockey...fuck.
on the Wheeler tip...I think he's better suited for a wing spot...so once Savard gets back...I think him and Seguin are changing positions...which could make this team very formidable
I just think his routine is pure clown shoes. and he seems to be getting worse, every freaking save that Thomas makes now it's "OOOOHHH!!! ABSOLUTELY MINDBLOWING SAVE FROM TIM THOMAS!!!! OOOOOHHHH!!!"
I just like my p-b-p guys to be more low key. put it this way, Fred Cusick was my ideal p-b-p guy, at least as long as his eyesight held out. he would be embarrassed by Edwards' shtick, as am I during every game.
I used to stand up for Wheeler, but his game just bothers me. maybe it's his size but he seems to dog it out there a lot, and his finish - which was great in his rookie year - seems all but gone. maybe he can come on again, and he hasn't been "bad" so far this year, he just doesn't do much for me.

Even though he scored tonight I really hate Ryder, maybe because he's a Newfie. Or maybe because at least three times a game he'll have a goalie dead to rights and miss the fucking net by five feet.
as long as Ryder is skating hard and finishing checks, like he has been so far, he's alright with me. especially if he's on the 3rd line - the Bruins depth allows for him to play without the pressure he had last year, which should pay off.
i'm still hearing people shit on tim thomas. some of my coworkers said he was "getting lucky." people hate him because he's an unorthodox goalie. anyone remember a guy named hasek? definition of unorthodox, and he won 6 vezinas, 2 harts, finalist for 3 harts he didn't win, and a stanley cup.
i'd like to see the bruins go out and get another defenseman. i've heard they want keith yandle, which would be awesome, but he's probably phoenix's best overall player, and they have him at a low cost, so they'd be retarded to give him up for anything less than the toronto first rounder.
a week ago I might have been willing to give up that Toronto first rounder, with how well they were playing, but the B's smackdown seemed to bring them back down to earth and that pick is still looking like it could be a top 10 ... I still might trade it for Yandle though.
gotta love how none of the 4 goal scorers last night were over 24 years old ... the core of this team is so young and talented, the B's should be contenders for years to come. And I'm starting to have a really good feeling about this season.
How about Caron?? Kid is 19 and looks like he's been in the league for 10 years!

Watch out for Joe Colbourne, Matt Bartkowski, Yuri Alexandrov and Steven Kampfer down in Providence. Colbourne looked to be at the same level as Caron in training camp. Bartkowski and Kampfer REALLY impressed the Bruins.
Pretty awesome first period-and-a-half from the Bruins in Buffalo, as they put up another 4 goals ... but it seems like they lost interest after getting the big lead and are letting Buffalo walk all over them - now it's 4-2 and they still aren't playing very hard.
Of course, the fact that the refs decided to let Buffalo play pretty much the final 30 minutes of the game on the power play hasn't helped things much either.
yeah Rask makes some amazing saves but lets in some absolute stink-ass goals : (

I was there. Those first three fights were unreal - never seen anything like it. I've seen fights one second into a game numerous times, but those three were nuts. Entire game was fantastic!
my Edwards line had to be "AND HE IS JUST DESTROYING HIS FACE" or something along those lines. Bruins didn't just look tough tonight, they looked mean. Not a lot of letting up in the hits or fights, borderline shit like Marchand hitting on an icing and Ference throwing punches when dude went down. I love it.
the best lol of the night had to be the 12 guys in the penalty box though. old motherfuckin time hockey for REAL.
way too many Canadiens fans in the building - you can hear them booing Chara and calling for gay penalties just like they do up in Froggytown. I hope the B's fans are making it very uncomfortable for them in the Garden.
Meanwhile, Bruins up 1-0 halfway through the first and looking pretty good so far. needs moar violence.
dude they always lose 1-0 to the fucking Rangers.
Lundquist has like 5 shutouts in 20 games against them.
if they play the Rags in the playoffs it will be the most boring series ever.
Looked a lot better tonight! Good to see the power play a weapon again, and LOOOOOVVVVE the sound of Flyers fans booing their own team as the B's beat them on home ice.
lololol anybody see the midget get Chara's jersey in the "shirts off our backs" ceremony yesterday?
and then when they went back to the studio Katherine Tappen was like "it's so cute to see the little ones who could use the jerseys as a blanket," obviously meaning the little kids and Barry Pederson goes "yeah, imagine looking up at Zdeno Chara like that" lolololol

Just finished reading some article on boston.com essentially saying if they don't at least make it to the finals it could be Julien's last season coaching. Personally I think he's done a great job and don't think it's fair to blame a coach when your players just decide to stop skating and start coasting to pucks.
I'm also sick of all these articles talking about how they don't have Savard. Yes Savard is a great player, but honestly they've gelled as a team without him and seem to play better when he hasn't been on the ice. He's not the huge impact player everyone makes him out to be.
Did anybody listen to felger and mazz talk to the sergeant from the Montreal police dept yesterday? Apparently, they won't interview chara until after the playoffs and the crown(quebecs version of the attorney general) are the ones pressing the issue of going after chara, not the police. He flat out said he hates having to assign two guys to investigate this. He also called all of the people who called 911 to complain about the hit "stupid".
post by sigh at Apr 13,2011 12:55pm
Yeah if people go to the Montreal games at the garden the sign-age needs to rip on them for that bs. It's hockey...they signed contracts and in their somewhere I'm sure it says you might get hurt doing this.
Sigh, I think julien definitely gets shitcanned if they don't make it out of the second round. He was lucky to escape last year's debacle with his job. I'm glad they kept him, but if they don't deliver this year, he's gonna go. They need a coach who can develop seguin and I'm not sure claude is the right guy for that job.
hahahahahaha THERE'S STILL HOPE hahahahahaha no there isn't.

FUCKIN HEARTSTOPPER KEHD
god they looked like shit for long periods tonight but they did it, they said fuck you frenchies and won both in Montreal. Now it's a best of 3 and they have home ice back. FUCK YEAH.
and how about Ference flipping off the Habs fans after his goal? F U C K Y E A H !
Here's to hoping they can swing a trade this offseason and get rid of Ryder and Savard. Maybe Ryder's heroics of late can dupe some team into thinking he's worth something.
they won't need to. ryder's an unrestricted free agent and savard is probably retiring. if he doesn't retire or sit out another year, there's no way another team would trade for him.
fuck that wanna-be negatory thread, I'm resurrecting my OG.
Bruins back in the ECF at last!! Should have been there the past 2 years but now they are going AND they have home ice!!
FUCK the Flyers.
Man, Bergeron better be OK we fucking NEED that dude so much. Just like the Flyers to take out our best player on their way to the golf course, fucking homos.
what a fucking garbage start by the B's ... they've actually been the better team since late in the 1st period but can't get anything by Tampa. Shit is so frustrating, looks exactly like the 1st couple of games against Montreal. FUCK.
HAHAHAHA NO HOPE FOR THE BRUINS , TILL THEY FIX THAT POWERPLAY.SEGUIN 1st goal just now!!!lol WOW TORONTO GOT SUCH A BETTER DEAL YOUR POWERPLAY WOULDNT SUCK IF U GUYS STILL HAD KESSEL.DUMB DUMB DUMB
yeah, that was a hard game to watch. All my gusto got sucked out in a 1:19 second span... on the other had, Seguin's goal DID look fucking awesome. Nice move between the stick and the skate of the defender.. hope C.Julien keeps his minutes up.... AND hope to see Bergeron at some point.
HAHAHAHA NO HOPE FOR THE BRUINS , TILL THEY FIX THAT POWERPLAY.SEGUIN 1st goal just now!!!lol WOW TORONTO GOT SUCH A BETTER DEAL YOUR POWERPLAY WOULDNT SUCK IF U GUYS STILL HAD KESSEL.DUMB DUMB DUMB
Dude.....Seguin WILL be better than Kessel. He already has a better work ethic.
such a sick game from the B's tonight. not flashy, but motherfucking WINNING hockey. this team is the balls on the road. Bergeron back = YOU CAN'T STOP US FUCKERS
post by sigh at May 20,2011 11:13am
And if Seguin keeps getting more ice time they've got a good chance this year. Bye bye Savard.
some radio fags in Tampa made it their mission to get the Bruins to take those signs down, giving out a bunch of Bruins office phone numbers over the air and telling listeners to curse people out when they called ... and the freaking Bruins gave in and took them down!
First line is finally alive, Krejci just needs to pull the trigger more. Looked really strong for stretches of the first and third.
Last night felt very similar to Game 6 against MTL, I knew they weren't going to win it, knew they were going to get killed by hometown penalties but they played fairly strong, were in it until the end and should come home with the confidence to close the series out tomorrow night.
Vancouver is looking really good lately. Luongo is playing strong as well, which is what I felt was their weakest link. Stanley cup begins on Wednesday in Vancouver.
the nhl is raviolis. burrows should've been suspended, not scoring 2 goals and an assist. i hope he dies a horrible death, along with the entire nhl front office.
they just need to lay the smackdown and get it back even at home.
it's not like they are getting destroyed, they could have won either game and should have won tonight. They need to get up early on this team though, Vancouver looks so much more fresh in the 3rd, B's look gassed.
a couple of those 2-3 goal outbursts in the 1st or 2nd in Boston and they get back in this shit.
Coming back 2-0 against Vancouver is going to be hard. I agree. Both games they could have won, but both games they seem tired towards the end. The OT goal was a fluke, but they need to somehow control their energy levels throughout the game. It was the same thing in Game 1.
but it never should have gotten there because BURROWS SHOULD'VE BEEN SUSPENDED
Agreed. But it is what it is and the NHL is raviolis for not suspending him because it's the finals. And that's the only reason they didn't suspend him. Faggots.
i'd be disappointed if they got beaten fair and square, but i'm enraged about the circumstances surrounding this loss. also, tim thomas (one of my favorite people on the planet) dun goofed severely on that ot goal.
What the hell was Thomas thinking leaving the net like that? There was a Bruin right next to that guy giving pressure and stopping any sort of play on the goal. BUSH LEAGUE

They need to kill one of the sedins so the other twin will be really sad and damaged for the rest of his life.
They need to hook one of them up with Kelly Preston and the other one with some other broad so some guy can try to shoot them in a refinery or something, I haven't watched Twins in about 23 years so I can't remember most of that shit.
cant imagine being a bruins fan and watchin the nhl NOT suspend burrows and then the game he had. total bullshit van would of never won that game .too bad the nhl showed no integrity or justice on that bite.boston bruins should play nothing but dirty oldtime hockey in game3
Tonight is gonna be sick. Goin to Backstreet in Hudson, NH. There's a redhead broad I'm tryin to pork that should be there. Giggity. Oh yeah, the game is on and yes, they should play oldtime hockey tonight. BEATING OF BURROWS IS IN ORDER!!!
they couldn't score a single fucking goal in the 5 minute major
Yea. I'm shocked too that they score on a POWER PLAY. it's almost pathetic how terrible they are when it comes to the power play. No scratch that. It IS pathetic.
Best game I've ever been to! Timmy's hit on henrik and lucic getting in the face of burrows made the game. I was hoping for a cheapshot on luongo to avenge Horton, but luongo made so many dun goofins that vancouver would've been better off if he had gotten hurt.
A pack of young ruffians in my section thought they were badass for bullying and basically assaulting a senior citizen couple wearing canucks jerseys. Threatening a little old lady and slapping her husband on the ass doesn't make you much of a tough guy.

This is why you can't take me anywhere, I'd have started some shit and probably been beat up.
that fucking game was unbelievable. I watched the first 2.5 periods before i went and played drums. By that point though, it was a done deal.
post by RustyPS is on the move at Jun 7,2011 1:06pm
Bad news (but not surprising) : Horton has been ruled out for the rest of the Finals
Good news: Rome is also out for the rest of the Finals.. the NHL suspended him for 4 games, which btw would extend into next season if the Finals don't go to 7 games
oh man at this point the Stanley Cup is almost secondary to just beating these Canuck faggots for being faggots. these terds make the Canadiens look classy. I hate them and can't wait to beat them once and for all.
I hope you nancies are raging tonight. I may be up at the parade. Went to the Sox parade first time around for the boozing and whoring. So abundant. Fuck school, burn shit, kill people.
Oh I know. This helped bring the cup home to Boston! LET'S FUCKING GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
post by LPCustom at Jun 16,2011 12:51am
Can we talk about all my annoying friends on Facebook that found out the Bruins existed in June of 2011? I don't like pulling the "bandwagon" card, but give me a break! Same thing for every other team the past few years too, but Jesus Christ!
So yeah, obviously very happy about the win.. but holy shit, getting to Brookline from Southie at 12:30 this evening was a pain in the fucking ass. SOOO many douche-bags out in full effect.

Haha that sucks. Fucking parade is going to be much worse.
Parade was actually pretty awesome.
I rode my bike down and watched it pass by three different times. Thomas and Chara on the first boat with the Cup was sick. confetti madness.
thomas and chara didnt have the cup on the first duck boat, someone else had the cup towards the end of the boats, 1 or 2 boats behind toucher and rich I do believe...

They were passing it between the boats. Marchand had it when they were passing me by, and then they stopped the parade to hand it back to Bergeron's boat
fun times were fun

Absolute madness. I got there at 7:30am. Maybe a little early, but I was front row against the guardrails at cambridge and Somerset. Seeing them turn the corner and slowly approaching and the crowd going fucking ape shit gave me chills. Also, when jack edwards came by we kept yelling "get up!!!!" and he gave us the two thumbs up. Highlight of our day. Oh, and only riding the t from park st to north Quincy with a mr. t impersonator is real. Everyone kept yelling "I pity the fool!". And when he got off, everyone clapped and said bye. Fucking strange. Everyone was in such a good mood. I was expecting a bunch of douche baggery to be had at the parade, but that wasnt the case at all. Everyone was in great spirits, and just having a good time.
