Bruins ...

So do the Bruins end their hopeful chance to make it to the finals tonight against Montreal or will they win and drag us out a little deeper before they pull the boat out from under us? I myself think tonight's the night they seal their fate, especially after watching that 7-0 beating they took 2 nights ago, man did they just suck!

Insanity is a long and winding road ... I think I finally made it there.

I watch the games and can't help but feel like Boston has become an expansion league team. One decent game followed by a few losses. They have no consistency and the sight of seeing all of the empty seats at most NHL games makes me sick.

being a "hockey" fan- B's in particular- it's so damned hard to watch ...seems the spoked pride is nowhere to be found...

I agree 100%, no heart with this team. They Haven't had any in the last 10 years, they are already losing tonight 1-0 going into the 3rd. They haven't even gotten close to putting a decent scoring drive on the Montreal goaltender, they shoot the puck 4 feet off the ice and all he has to do is catch it. Montreal has the edge all the way around tonight and the B's are basically watching them skate right by them by giving up the blue line. Stick a fork in them they'll never come back against Montreal tonight, break out the golf clubs, go down to Florida and do what they do best ... watch the rest of the hockey season on television like us. Pitiful, to call themselves hockey players. Only bad part is that there is some talent on that team and those guys lose because of the poor coaching and lazy players. I'd almost rather watch paint dry but I have a hockey heart, might be from getting hit with too many pucks when I was younger.

Are the fish here yet? I need something to do. Any fish will do, even the ones at an aquarium will do right now ...

hockey stopped being hockey in the late eighties, early nineties.... i was a HUGE hockey fan, big, bad bruins all the way. i stopped watching hockey when that shadowing scrub stevie kasper benched a hall of famer like cam neely and kevin stevens in montreal , just to send a message??? neely was the heart and soul of that team...... there's no way any one can give me a logical explanation on the joe thornton trade. or samsonov, letting the razor go. you can not possibly get any better by trading your best players away. jacobs needs to go..plain and simple.

Yep, No doubt that the Bruins will never be Big or Bad again until the Jacobs relinquish ownership to someone who actually intends to put a championship team on the ice. Enough is enough. The Bruins are one of the most profitable Hockey franschises in the country due to the combined ownership of the team, the Garden and food service franchises. The only thing the Jacobs care about is profit and the only way they will sell is if that profit slips. Boycott, Boycott, Boycott.

I think they tried to make some good moves. They just didn't make any. Zedano was the worse. I haven't seen a big defencemen that can't skate and is to slow to hit someone since Hall Gill. He coughs up the puck at least 3 times a game. I'll be glad when the season is over.

Me too, and they look damn decent. If they played the whole season like they placed this first period we'd be real happy tonight.

I went to the Elton John concert last night so i missed the game ... it was great, nice relaxing night with great tunes, no stress. Thank God I missed the game! Well they are done now, the fat lady is singing her a$$ off (oh, and laughing it off too at how miserable the Bruins are as a team). Next year ... how many times have we heard this? I don't see them doing anything for at least 4 years, not as long as Jeremy Jacobs owns them. That guy is such an idiot, he cares nothing for the fans, only profit, but I think he's about to get his dues because it's us fans that pay to see the Bruins... ergo his profit is about to be largely diminished because of his money grubbing ideals as more and more fans find other paths to follow taking our money with us. As I and others have said ... THEY SUCK!!!!

Insanity is a long and winding road ... I think I finally made it there.
