GDT: Game 7 - Montréal @ Boston - May 14th

Everyone has been underestimating new york this postseason. They can beat mtl, they have the better goalie which can be all the difference

We shall see.I can guarentee you this and I'm a
Leafs fan so no Habs bias here,Price is not Fleury
or Mason/Emery so we'll see how the Rags handle
a real goalie.Not gonna be many goals and right now,
Dale Weise is playing a hell of a lot better than Nash
so personally,I think your Rangers are in trouble.
 
I am shocked, i won't lie, as i had the B's taking the cup this year, but hats off to the Habs for waltzing into Beantown, and taking game 7. Say what you want about either team, or any players, but this was one hell of a battle, and one hell of a great series. :beer:
 
Raise your hand if you have Habs VS Rangers in the ECF. No one? That's what I thought.

I like to see this though, new blood in the East. Now, if the Hawks can manage to beat the Kings or Ducks (which I highly doubt they will), I don't know who is rather play. Price and Lundqvist are two of the best goalies in the league who can and do win games on their own, will be tough to beat either 4 times in a series. I'm thinking Rangers, but either team is formidable. If the play the Kings, and beat Quick and then either Price or Lundy, that will be one hell of a tough road and a seriously impressive run to The Cup.

Good luck to all remaining teams (but not too much to the Kings/Ducks). :devil:
 
Briere is unsung hero. Underrated.

B's took so many dumb penalties. Marchand's snow job on Price was another example.

I wonder how long management will tolerate his antics. He hurt the team more than helped it this playoffs. Take a dumb penalty, break the team's momentum, especially already when you're behind.


As for playoff revenue, with the Habs going to the Eastern finals, will it boost the salary cap? There was talk about a 4% drop due to the drop in the CAN$.
 
The Rangers have a very capable team their defense can frustrate many teams, same can be said about the Habs though. A very even matchup in my mind.
 
Cripes, the B's first line was nonexistent through this whole series, and I'm pretty sure Bartkowski can start looking for a moving company. Iggy too, he's probably going to look elsewhere to win a cup before retiring. Stupid penalties, poor passing, wild shooting (18 posts hit in the playoffs for Boston, was that an accurate count? Feels like it.) They just lost because they didn't play like a team that wanted to win. Montreal did.

I had the Rags, and Bruins. Now my bracket is done as I had the B's going all the way. :vomit:
 
Reading on Twitter that Lucic threatened Weise and emelin in the handshake line ......real classy

Hmmm! I thought I saw the players stop abruptly, and turn around during the handshake, at that point I wondered if something was said, but they continued on, so I didn't think anything about it. If this is true I just lost a ton of respect for the guy. Bad enough the series was a bit over-shadowed by a few racist comments by a handful of classless Boston fans, but poor sportmanship is pretty bad. If Lucic did this he should be ashamed of himself, and i hope he's punished somehow. :eek:
 
Aaron Ward just ripped into Lucic, apparently Lucic told Weise "I am going to bleeping kill you next year." Then he called Weise a baby in the locker room after . . . interesting.

wow. that's a real shame if in fact he did say that. I'd think there would be some kind of respect to a team that just took you to game 7. It was a hard fought series. no one should feel shame for losing. could have gone either way when it comes down to a 1 game series like that.
 
I have to imagine you start to lose your teammates respect when you pull a stunt like that in the handshake......friggin embarrassing if you're a Bruin. I feel bad for Iggy who was behind him.
