That would do nothing to disrupt Lucic and is not Laraques M.O. That's all I was getting at, that he was out there to disrupt Lucic, if he could get him off for 5 minutes, great, but the Habs didn't want to risk being short-handed either...tight intra-divisional game is not the time for that.



Most of us guys? I'm not a Habs fan. I'm a B's fan, and I watch the B's and attend games regularly...in the first period Lucic did look off his game, so I think the tactic worked for a period of time. Also, let's remember that Lucic's goal was scored with George on the bench. Again, I was simply responding to what sounded like you were suggesting he go after skill players to coax Lucic in.

Sorry I called you clueless and called you "bro" which you seemed to be especially bothered by.
If you guys are going to argue amongst yourselves, maybe you should take to a more appropriate forum, like, oh, I dunno, the bruins' board? Someplace where you can discuss the finer points of cheapshots, 26 years of futility but how great you are now, Terry O'Reilly and your usual bruins topics.

If this thread is not closed maybe it should be moved to the Bruins board? I mean - they seem to enjoy posting in it ..

Can you two goons take your little kissy show back the B's board? Thanks, bro.

You know what? You guys are exactly correct, that shoulda been taken elsewhere, so I apologize.

As for why I've posted here in general, I was interested in your perspective on things. I've been a hockey fan since about 1968, but typically don't have exposure to the goings on in the minds of other teams' fans.

At any rate, I think I'll stick around and post now and then...I'll just keep the other crap out of your threads, ok?

BTW, thanks to the guys who greeted me here...it's appreciated.

The power of Marc Savard

Savard said that Lucic was told not to drop them against Laraque, that we know. What we don't know is that you guys remember when Savard went to Laraque and Lucic at one point during that big conversation they were having.....

Well Savard said that he said to Laraque to let Lucic alone and that after that, Laraque was quieter....

Savard is THE MAN!!!!!
