Okay. Enough trolling and kindly GTFO and back to your playoff boards.

Rangers probably not even in the playoffs without him. Kid is very good.

You can probably search the thread, but most if not all were disgusted. I know I was and my post in that now legendary thread corroborates(sp?) this

Uh not too thrilled? Troll on my friend!

Chara is such a ****ing baby. Slashing and/or cross checking someone every time he gets hit.

Watching the Bruins / Caps you get the feeling Cole-DD-Patches would be a greater scoring threat than either teams top line.

He almost took off Ovechkins head after being hit into the boards

A lot of people defended it to the death, they are mysteriously not here anymore.

White outs are so stupid when the other team is wearing white jerseys.

About the same as when you guys finally realized you signed an AHL player for, what, $39M?

Holtby is having a heck of a game against Boston. I've been watching on and off and have been impressed. He also took a roughing penalty when he decked a Bruins player that was about to run him. I think he show he wasn't going to take any crap from the Bruins.

I remember the disbelief well when news 3 broke

**** you Chris Kelly

[Shadyone33]

Dang, I was hoping Washington could pull one out for Holtby.

[Craig71]

Perfect pass from Pouliot to Kelly......I hate this year.

[Shaby23]

I swear if the bruins win the cup again...

nightmares of Chris Kelly

F the bruins.

[Craig71]

Boston is so strong down the middle, and that is what we lack so badly. Yes I know about Chara.

Kelly's a beast for them in the playoffs. That was a great pick up by the Bruins.

[gusfring]

Kelly for a 2nd. Unreal trade for the Bruins.

Gotta admire Boston's ability to win OT games

I'm amazed how long we've been content to have no flexibility or advantage in the matchup game with a strong middle position.

True. Although Horton was a big part of that last year. I hope they can't keep it up this year!

That used to be the Habs. But since the first round in 1998, we've gone 4-10 in playoff OT. Blech.
