The Boston Bruins
Despite what has been labeled "inconsistent" play for the first half of the season, this years team is leading the division and currently playing a good stretch of hockey, scoring lotsa goals (40 in the last 10 games) and the goaltending has been the best in the leauge with Thomas playing at his best. The "energy line" has been energetic with Thorton playing over his head and Marchand a surprisingly agressive and talented forward. The young defensemen have givin the team a real boost and are playing offensively minded. Bergeron is the best player on the ice nightly and the mix of young and old players seems to be a good one.
So yes, I am a diehard and I truly want to believe that this could be the year they finally bring home the cup. But then I keep flashing back to last seasons nightmare exit from the playoffs and get afraid to believe. It has been almost 40 years since they won it all and I am feeling like a pre-2004 Red Sox Fan at times.
Who thinks this will be the year? Who thinks this will be yet another early exit from the playoffs?
