this game is going to give me a heart attack

BLAH!

Okay- just two wins away from hoisting the Cup but one loss away from the golf course. How are you all feeling about the chances tonight and potentially Wednesday? We have every reason to believe they will bounce back tonight as they have been nothing short of resilient all playoffs long. The very thought of watching Vancouver skating on Garden Ice with the Cup should be enough motivation to win tonight.

If they win tonight can the somehow find a way to win in an anything-can-happen game 7?

I say yes and am anticipating nothing but celebrations throughout Bruins Nation!

Woooooooooo!

ProfessorM 06-13-2011 06:43 PM

if they win tonite, I feel they will win it all. B's that is

Stop & Shop has a new type of Swiss Cheese out called Luongo.

That was a lot of fun to watch. This has been an epic season, epic playoff run and epic finals series that is just waiting for an epic conclusion. It would not surprise me one bit to see game 7 go into overtime tomorrow night.

While I did not go to a single playoff game (a first for me) I will absolutely be on an early train into Boston tomorrow and will be planting my large butt in front of a big screen in a bar somewhere very close to the Garden.

Any recommendations for a good place to watch/celebrate? The Harp? The Greatest Bar? Sullys?

Anyone else heading up there?

Mr. Sandman 06-14-2011 06:56 AM

Well played. They will be bringing that game to Vancouver you can bet money on it. Luongo is fragile and has some real holes in his game at times he is worried about, the city is very nervous. If we get a couple quick ones I think they could cave. I would love to see him get yanked in game 7. Lastly, they are a very sore and injured team...we just need to keep banging away. They can't take much more hitting. Keep on banging Boychuk, keep on banging.

I am sure the B's have some bruises as well but they are jacked! This game is theirs if they play like they did at home.

No matter how it plays out though...they had a great season and only a few of us knew it could really be this good, most of the experts called for their early demise. Remember how the experts all said the teams in the east suck compared to the west... Yeah...well, suck on this.

I want a blow out. I can't take an O T. Game.

I am really jacked and nervous for tonight. I keep saying that anything can happen in one game, a lucky bounce a bad call anything... No matter what, win or loose I am really happy for the team this year. IMO they are the best team team in the league. I hope the refs put the whistles in their pockets and B's take them a part. The Canucks are a beat up team. We can pound them into submission and then play mind games with their goalie and win this. OT will probably kill me.

Saltheart 06-15-2011 12:35 PM

I say the B's blow them off the ice tonight. :)

Mr. Sandman 06-15-2011 01:04 PM

I just heard this on the Radio

LABRONGO

:rotf2::rotf2: coffee shot out of my nose!!

Haven't been this excited for a game since game 7 against Yankees in 04. Gonna take a few beers to take the edge off the nerves for this one.

Watched the game upstairs at "The Fours" last night and got to experience to insaneness of the Boston Celebration. I have never high-fived so many people at one event in my life. My hands are hiyrting, my voice is shot and despite the beers, my head is ultra-clear this morning.

Congrats to The Bruins and THANK YOU for bring The Cup back home!

eskimo 06-16-2011 12:15 PM

wow, wow and wow.

The depth of the bruins prevails. Fourth line played like a second line and every player did more then just chip in.

Hats off to PC as I watched each player he acquired for the B's do what he expected. As much as I would hate to admit he has a eye for players that have potential that doesn't get recognized becaue they are stuck on a line that doesn't sync somewhere int he NHL. Peverly and Kelly being the latest additions along with Campbell and Horton and even Rechhi when he came with Morris and Montador.

Most players he sought out added to the core of what was there.

I always look forward to the CBC montage of the SC play-offs and I haven't seen it posted so here it is.

The hockey gods saw the sissy style of play done by the canucks and unleashed their wrath on the team and city.

4 - 0 at home HA HA HA!! Pulling the goalie with 3+ minutes to go, ... just awesome.

Way to go Bruins, we may not of had the regular season numbers, speed or talent, but when your heart is in the right place good things happen.

BRUINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome back to Win City!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :buds:

fishbones 06-16-2011 12:28 PM

Cool video. Thanks for posting, Eskimo. After watching that and thinking back through the entire playoffs, I'd have to say that Tampa was the second best team this year, not the Canucks.

Agreed and as much as I hate to admit the Montreal series was really a grind too.

Mike P 06-16-2011 03:12 PM

This is their third Cup during my lifetime, and this one was probably the most deserved. Let's face it, in 1970 and 1972, the B's were loaded and far and away the best team in the NHL. They really should have had 5 Cups in a row, but as usual, the Habs were their roadblock.

This is a lunch bucket team that Grapes would have been proud of, and for all of the surviving Gallery Gods who used to sit in the second balcony at the old Gahdin, this one's for them.

ProfessorM 06-16-2011 06:27 PM

I agree with Mike. I experienced the 70's and was bummed when they only came away with 2 cups. I was 14 and playing hockey 3 times a week back then and Hockey was king. I ate, slept, and lived hockey as did most Boston sports fans of that time period. We never missed any games, regular or playoff games, for many, many years. I slowly faded my attention for a bunch of years as other interests grew but always kept tabs on them. This year I dedicated my interests to watching them and really came away with a real appreciation for their hard earned Cup. I have not always been a fan of the dump it in and go get it style, loving the stylish wide open Olympic and European style but I really enjoyed watching a lesser talented, compared to V C, team just impose their will on the Cunucks. By mid third period last nite they were a beaten, frustrated, and out hustled bunch of players and it was a thing of beauty to watch and as stylish as any style I have watched in a long time. They had a plan and worked it to a T. Congrats to the Bruins this year as they epitomized the word team. Oh yeah and thanks Timmy T. you gave a performance for the ages. Now I can get a good nites sleep, what a ride.
