PrintThe Bruins roll into Tampa Bay tonight to find the 'Ning Back In Black after Tampa dropped Game 6. The Lightning hope to leave Boston Thunderstruck and force a Game 7 near some Dirty Water. The Bruins want to put a fork in Tampa Bay so that they can roll out some new commercials since this round didn't go so well.

Christobal Huet actually has something going for him. His wife in incredibly hot.
A man who stole my whisky used the defense that no one could resist a bottle of Scotch. I had no choice but to testify on his behalf.
I know almost everyone on this board at least is rooting for Tampa. I am rooting for Boston simply because I LOVE Tim Thomas
But if Tampa got by them, I wouldn’t be broken up about it. I just hope whoever wins in the East beat Vancouver. That should be good enough for everyone…right?
Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?
I'm rooting for Tampa for the same reason... the goalie.

I’ve been pulling for tampa…and there they go! Sweet! But I wouldn’t be disappointed if Boston won. I dig them too. I’m with ya tho…as long as they beat Vancouver in the SCF
Oh, and Detroit? You can stop believin' now.

I’ve always liked Tampa.
Because 30 is different than 20 and 34 is different than 27.

Datsyuk may have done it first, but he learned it from Peter Forsberg.
Thanks for everything Foppa!

Tampa became my team when I lived in FL and it was damn near impossible to catch the Avs. That being said, I really ought to be cheering for Boston this series. Why? B/c I hate Vancouver right now a lot more than the difference between my affections for TB over Boston. Here is a diagram to help illustrate.

Sorry
say what you want, but his analysis is pretty strategically smart. I noticed that particular play with Kelly, but never could have analyzed it like that.

No, I like JR, he’s hilarious. It’s just funny he said “I know you all like it when I say come with speed”

Have we drafted Larsson yet?

Thomas has looked like shit in some of these games…

Alright this has been pissing me off
The whole “the Canucks clinched on the exact same day 14 years ago” thing is annoying. Both clearly had to be in the 3rd round. Based on the schedule there was a 1 in 14 shot that it would happen. If they won in 5 games this year.
Then take into the fact that each conference finals was alternating so really the odds aren’t that crazy.

OS lost 7-3. They gave up 2 freaking SH goals. Losing both Hishon and Wilson was just too much. And why in the hell did they play Stajcer instead of Binnington
