B's Playing Solid....

don't look now but the defending stanley cup champs are playing some damned good hockey. 10 straight wins after a slow start. took me a while to get into the 'new' nhl (still hate the shootouts) but this is a hard working, hard hitting team with a helluva goalie. expect a deep playoff run.

I am not a fan of the shootouts either but last night's was entertaining. 10 in a row is uncommon for any team. Wonder what the record is? Tough test tomorrow afternoon against Detroit.

Finished November 12-0-1. Looks like they're over the hangover they started the season with and are ready to defend the Cup. I'm surprised there hasn't been more talk about them in here.

They may never lose another game! I remember feeling that way last season and it turned out well. Great to see them beat Toronto- Thank. You. Kessel.

Very little not to like with this team.

Yeah I think I'm finally starting to come around with hockey. Never really got into it as I'm a die-hard basketball fan. But it was an impressive month for sure.

B's smoking Florida tonight! 6-0 after two periods. And the game isn't even that close....

they've scored 2 goals in under a minute like 12 times this year, they know how to keep the pedal to the metal.

Have to agree with Mark Recchi's comment on the difference between this year's team and last year's.... speed.

sign of a good team- play one good period and come away with 2 pts. loved the way mcquaid handled torres . put a questionable hit on a bruin and you pay a price.

Boy do they look good... Crushed the Devils 6-1 last night. Up on the Flames 3-0 midway through the first period tonight. Tick tack toe passing. Very balanced.

9-0...they are steamrolling teams. They are a stronger team now than last season. Lets hope everyone stays healthy and they ride this for all it's worth.
