Yeah, they need a block of cheese in that booth. If you watched the Sportsnet East feed, those 2 clowns are the biggest bunch of homer whiners on earth. Every time they can, they attempt to fabricate some kind of conspiracy bias against Ottawa. It's the same ****, rinse and repeat during EVERY sens game no matter who they play. Hopefully the Bruins games are on TSN, because Greg Millen is just as bad if not worse when he does the HNIC games.

FLA also needs a point as Ottawa holds the tie-break over them. From 3rd to 8th for the cats on Saturday haha.

Really now?

Have you watched him play lately?

My fav part of today was Ottawa sports radio, saying

1) The Bruins were very beatable this year, and didn't have the same mojo as last year
2) If you block the up pass, the Bruins are predictable
3) Ottawa is the highest scoring 3rd period team in the nhl

Well

1) No
2) No
3) No that's actually us

Now 32-0 after leading after 2. Junior B's gonna dominate

A lock, really?

The Sens play the Devils which will be a tough game.

Washington has the Rangers (who will probably rest a whole bunch of players, and start Biron).

Edit - Panthers would need 1 point (at home against CAR).

In the short sample of 2 games, Krug looks quite poised and ready to play at the NHL level.

Anton was spectacular tonight and looks like quite capable back-up for Timmy if Rask is unable to go once the play-offs begin.

Either a language quirk or a serious indictment of the Providence D but that was hilarious when Khudobin was telling Naoko that the NHL is easier than the AHL.

He'll go through times when he's not as active as others.

But to describe Ovechkin as "lazy" is completely inaccurate.

And rightfully so. The Panthers backed in tonight--how fitting.

if washington gets 2 points though they could pass ottawa for 7th and we might end up with them

boston should win round 1 easy against either ottawa or washington though and if we lose its us losing. neither of these teams have what it takes to give us much of a series if we are hitting on all cylnders.

imagine if florida somehow beats jersey and we get the panthers in round 2

we might be looking at clear sailing right to the final 4

and if you go back 2 seasons to our collapse against philly and realize how close we were to a final 4 matchup against montreal... this team is as close to dynasty as anyones been to for awhile now

takes a bit of luck though... obviously we didnt finish off philly when we should have... and we havent done the job yet this year either. but it sure seems to be a great time to be a B's fan if you ask me

im ready for the playoffs and i see a boston/vanocuver rematch if im putting down my 2 dollar bet today
oooh I hope not! Have had enough of their garbage

Philly Pitt will be awesome, also very excited for Nashville Detroit

Yeah man, he actually made some good physical plays behind the net. Also, great stretch pass to Paille

If the Sabres had not been eliminated tonight, the pressure would have been on the Bruins to play their starting line-up on Saturday.

With the Sabres now eliminated, Claude can once again give some of his key players some well-earned rest.

Got to like our chances against Ottowa it might be the easiest series in the quater finals to predict

Motttau should have played instead of McQuaid

I'd rest Lucic, mostly to avoid any cheap shots. One of Marchand or Seguin, and Seidenberg, with Boychuk and McQuaid sitting out to get healthy.

I know we're all assuming Washington will beat the resting Rangers on saturday, but doesn't seem more like Torts to try and send a message in the last game? Start that series a game early and punish their first round opponents.

Coach Julien said B's were being careful with 54 who wasn't feeling quite right. However CJ said McQuaid could skate as early as Fri.^BISH

Damn, what more do they have to do to get Ottawa a point? If only that Tim Thomas hadn't stolen another game from them...
