Feel bad for Rask. 2 of the 4 Flyers goals were off of Bruins defensemen.
Wheeler does nothing for me. 6'5" and is afraid to get in front of the goalie. Ryder seemed to step up, but if they can get anything for him I think they have to take it. Wideman can just go.
They need to get Thomas to waive his no-trade clause.

Not sure why Julien had the team stop attacking after the first period, too long to protect lead for two periods. Frustrating. Rask could have played better. The "fluke" goal in the first he should have stopped and he simply handed Hartnell the puck on the second goal. Way too many "juicy" rebounds. I think he wore down like many predicted he may before the playoffs. Compare him to Halak and what he is doing.
Regardless I am ultra bummed too as a B's Habs showdown would have been awesome. Right now I do not care about the draft or next season but I will still be watching the rest of the playoffs.
