IMO

Jack Edwards although entertaining at times, he tries too hard and says the same thing over and over “Gretzky’s Office, etc, etc. (Brickley is top notch on the color though)

Dale is and always was terrible (can’t stand him on the radio either)

Wasn’t impressed with Neumi , he should stick to Horse Racing and the Olympics……..

Wish Fred Cusick was still around, he was the best……………

Neumi is great. No filter at all. Never forget him interviewing the women's 4*100 team right after dropping the baton and asking them if passing the baton was something they practiced.

Yes, that is all good. I think Jack does a good call of the game though yes some of the lines are corny.

Dale, though I liked listening to him on talk radio, couldn't call hockey play by play for a mite league. Absolutely suc*ed.

Not just sure if it is because I grew up listening to Fred Cusick and Johnny Pierson but they were indeed the best of the best.

Indeed. My fiance saw sides of me she had yet to see in our six years together. Went from ultra-pumped before the game, to distraught and sitting on the floor in almost-tears when it got to 3-1, to disbelieving joy when they got back into it, back to depression after Suban's bullet-goal, to draining relief when Kelly tied it up and ultimately to literally jumping/fist-pumping/ and diving on top of her in elation when Ryder sealed the deal.

Playoff Hockey at it's best! Ferrence flipping off the fans was awesome!

Great game last night! That's why playoff hockey is so much fun to watch. Thomas was unbelievable and the Krecji/Lucic/Horton line finally came through. Marchand and Ryder both had very good games, too.

great game indeed! lucic and horton are both disappointing in my book- even the blind squirrel finds a nut. marchand was a find- kid has heart! thomas (2011 vesna (sp) winner)was great! since when has gill become a tough guy?...when pushing around guys he's a foot bigger than. love to see charra lay one on him.

Unreal. Gotta love playoff hockey, best sports playoffs without question. Hope they blow them out on Tuesday because my heart cannot handle another game like that!

Tim Thomas has been money, he has kept them in it the last 3 games,,friggin awesome. This third win was just awesome action. as much as i love watching the NFL, imo NHL playoffs are more intense.

I don't mind Jack, he is enthusiastic about the home team and that is is the way it should be. Versus has great "neutral" coverage...I prefer the bias when I watch the Bruins. (I can watch Catherine T all night) I find hockey so much more exciting than Baseball or Football, I just can't watch them anymore. Maybe because I played alot of hockey as a kid but I just love the game particularly in the playoffs. My question is WHY can't the refs call games like this all year???

Tim has been OK in this series but I think he has let in too many soft goals (while making the killer hard saves). I would like to see the Bruins trade him after these playoffs, I am not sure he has much left in him He is worth something now, last year he was worthless. It is just a matter of time before you get stuck with a 5 million dollar has been.

Big game tonight...They need to hit them hard right off the bat and take the crowd out of the game.

BTW, I love the finger. The Habs are a great team (diving aside) I dislike Habs fans! When they boo-ed the American National Anthem last year...F-them!

The lighting in the Hab's rink is piss poor...look at those shadows!
Also we are getting some crappy calls against us. I take back what I said about the refs earlier.

Ugh- yet another home game 7 for this team. Despite carrying the play for most of the night, they had few quality scoring chances and the ffffing power-play is an ffffing JOKE. Lucic getting the gate was NO BIG LOSS as he was doing nothing and has done nothing all series long. Kaberle is even a bigger disappointment. Thomas not at fault giving up two 5 on 3 goals.

As big of a fan as I am, I would not go to the game if someone gave me tix for tomorrow night. Was there for the game 7 loss against Carolina and cannot put myself thru that again.

yeah the PP sucks. They use to have a good PP early in the season but it eroded to squat. They have got to improve that.

IMO they were the better team tonight, they outplayed them all 3 periods but were at the bad end of many really bad calls, many one sided calls too. Lucic should have gotten 2 mins for that hit...it was not that bad and the guy turned his back to him, if you do that you deserve what you get.

The habs could only score with 5 on 3. That is pretty sad considering that was the best they got.

P K Suppan would look very good in a Bruins sweater..... Poise beyond any rookie I saw this year. Handles the puck really well, and has a cannon... He did take a dive tonight though.

Gionta is a punk. Someone should knock him out. His cheap chit is not deserving of wearing the C on that jersey.
