I've gotta tell you, I think it is total bullshit that goalies like Thomas can throw checks in front of the net, but the second any opponent touches him, it's big trouble.

Either he plays a physical game, or he doesn't. That shit should be a penalty for him if it is for everyone else.

Fucking stupid "protect the goalie" rules have created net minders like Thomas. Take those rules away, and he'd lose his nerve.

Goalies have been wacking guys in the nuts in front of the net for - well - probably forever. That is nothing new at least to me. I've seen my entire life and lived through it.

I actually have felt the opposite; they are actually storming Thomas' net and I've seen him get plowed a couple times. Of course he is gonna get chippy if guys are flying into him, spraying him - all that shit.

And how many freaking PP have the Canucks had tonight? I could swear they've been on the PP for half the night. :2 cents:

5-0

Expect the Bruins to tie this bitch up in two days. Yes sir.

There goes the shutout.
 
Well, this game has turned into pushing-shoving-trying to get psyched up for next game bull shit. I've turned it off.

Someone let me know if Vancouver ever manages to get their head out of their ass and score in this game, won't you?

They did just break the shutout. 5-1. A moral victory of sorts I guess, fuckers.
 
im glad the series is assured of going back to Vancouver. i dont get versus, so i can only watch it on NBC, where it wont be back til game 5

What the fuck Vancouver?
 
Are you fucking serious? Why do you suppose they left him in after, say, 4 or 5?

I know the D played poorly on some of those, but seriously, even still that's atrocious. And this isn't the first time he put up monster numbers. Pretty sure if I remember he let up some really bad games against the Preds, Chicago and the Sharks. It would be one thing If I wasn't seeing this recurring poor play, but he's had some pretty bad games, IMO.

If you want to do something that is worth your time, perhaps you might enjoy this brand new article that I wrote today for Bleacher Report on whether or not Winnipeg's team should be named the Jets.

Shameless plug!

I read your article. One thing that crossed my mind is new revenue (which they will no doubt need) with a new jersey and memorabilia? If all those people just rock their old Jets jerseys wouldn't that be a financial hit of sorts? NHL teams are all about a buck first and foremost. I wonder what that would do to their bottom line.

Hello Sexy girl how your Toes doing?
Hmmm. impressive showing by the Bruins tonight... :clap: I love chippy games... :horse: I missed the big hit on Horton, I tuned in right after the hit cuz the B's had a 4:30 something still remaining on there PP and I was like UTOH who got a MAJOR and for what??? I pretty much watched the rest of game too see if any crazy shit happened... The pucks were flying in from everywhere for the B's tonight.. that 1st shorty was pretty sweet, and T. THOMAS was spectacular if I may say so... :nanner: Can't wait for game 4 now. :elaugh:

P.s. I hope N. Horton is OK and can comeback and play in game 4 but he's probably got a concussion. which sucks. Rome should get atleast a 5 game suspension if not more. :2 cents:
 
What a dirty hit by Aaron Rome. Way too late and shoulder straight to the head of an unsuspecting (because the hit was illegal, not because he was careless) player. I guess that's the way these Canucks POSs are playing it. If Rome is suspended for the series, it's a pretty good trade-off for them. A fifth or sixth defenceman for one of the best clutch goal-scorers on the Bruins in Nathan Horton. Despicable.
 
Fuck the Canucks. What a dirty team. Rome should be gone for the series.

Does Thomas think he's Lawrence Taylor? How can a goalie hit a player like that, but if your skate nicks the goalie you get an interference penalty?

I don't want to root for any of these teams.

You can root for the Detroit Vipers!! :D

......Oh wait, they don't exist anymore :(

It was one of the biggest hits of the year (and yes, it was dirty). He fucked him up. I think the Canucks have played dirtier this series, but I think yesterday was the dirtiest game for both teams so far.

I look forward to tomorrow to see if Boston can do this damn thing. Maybe they will be going after the Twins or Kessler for that vicious hit...:surprise:

I enjoyed watching Luongo, the Sedins, and the rest of the fucking Canucks get humbled last night. Man, I fucking hate Vancouver. Tim Thomas was in beast mode all night long and even had a fatality against one of the Sedins. If you're going to drop the puck in the goddamn crease, you deserve to get lambasted for it.

I love it when the series gets chippy. I hope they go all seven games.
 
It's shaping up to go to the limit. I think TT found his range yesterday, but I have admitedly found netminders to be notoriously streaky individuals, so there is no telling...

I am with you though; when hockey gets ugly it makes for great drama. A game 7 in Vancouver would be a classic and could really go either way, especially knowing the infamy of the Canucks' choking ability.

Go B's!

Rome suspended for 4 games, so he is out for the rest of the playoffs..Horton out with a severe concussion. And I am sure Burrows is looking for more fingers to munch on. Oh yeah The only guy that took more shots then Luongo was Bin Laden.
