I believe in the past 2 season the Habs are 9-3 vs the Bruins. And before the 2008 season didn't the Habs win like 11 straight vs them.

Completely agree. They are professionals and are paid to do this. Look at Pouliot, Begin, even us getting Metropolit giving his heart out, these guys don't care where they play they wanna play and get paid. I doubt they care about the rivalry as much as the fans do. Take Marchand for example right now, not getting what he wants from the bruins you think if the Habs would offer him something he wants he would turn it down? I really doubt it. These guys grew up as fans just like us, hated teams but eventually it became their job and now IMO they don't give a you know what about other teams and where they play. There might be a handful of them but not more IMO
