    The Savard bite on Carcillo was alleged, there was never video evidence. Add to that Carcillo is a World Class piece of crap. Alex Burrows bit on video, for the World to see, one of the classiest players n the NHL.

    The Chara play was a hockey play, 29 GM's agreed it was a hockey play that went wrong. If Montreal did not have the hardest glass in the league AND the worst stanchions Patch would have been fine. I'm on record on another site saying I would have given Chara 3-5 just to diffuse the situation.

    I never came with a "woe is me" attitude. I came with an attitude of "I'm sick of the Canucks whining and diving and embellishing". Their AHL 6th Dman knocked our first line winger out for the series and longer, the team galvanized around it. The Canucks have continued to try and play their game but they have run into a team that will not put up with their crap. Fine, flop on the ice, we'll give you a reason to fall down. Want to slash behind the play (Kesler, Burrows), fine...we'll hack and whack all night with you.

    To be honest, I had a tiny bit of shame watching my beloved Bruins the last 2 games. They have stooped to the same level as Vancouver, and kicked the crap out of them at the same game. Brad Marchand is a great little player, he needs to cut out the antics. Lucic and Rex waving the finger in front of Burrow and Lappy was shameful, but funny.

    Tonight they got it fed to them AGAIN. The Canucks still have the advantage. They are the best home team in the league and it is a tough place to win a game.

    Best of three for the Stanley Cup....I love it.

    You honestly have no idea...LOL! It is a horror show. I'm to the point where friendships, long term ones, are being endangered by this series.

    Just have to say that I love everything about Brad Marchand's game. I'm sure other teams despise him the way we dislike Burrows, Downie and Carcillo, but good god is he in the Canucks' heads or what?

    Can't really argue with that. Hopefully things change drastically when they return to Vancouver.

    No worries. I apologize if I sounded like a huge d-bag. I'm a little defensive right now because of the daily crap I hear in this city about my hockey club and I tend to go off.

    I'd never discourage good, well reasoned, solid debate. I love it. Keep keeping me on my toes.

    On the treadmill lastnight and they replayed Thomas (I must have missed it), absolutely slash the crap out of Burrows in front of the crease, and they got into it....it was gross, and all I can say is this.....they both have thrown some cheapshots, we cant get into a pissing match about who has more cheapshots thrown, or like in the NBA thread where people are arguing about the refs.....

    Here is to the last 3 games and getting down to the game itself and hoping all the cheapy crap from both sides stops now, because unlike the NBA, the offciating will let this game go without penalities, and the let the game itself decide the champion......

    that being said, this has been a great series thus far, and cant wait for Game 5!!

    Not a problem. I'm sure the press you're getting there is as slanted (in the other direction) as what I get down here. I pretty much end up skipping the pre-game and watching the games on mute because I can't stand it any more. The only one who ever has anything positive to say about the Nucks is Weekes. Maybe we should swap homes next year if they both make it back to the finals.

    My God...I'm already sick to my stomach and the game is not until Wednesday.

    Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final.

    The words make me nauseous.

    He made a bad comment about us, calling us women. I don't know how he looks at women. I would be pretty mad if I was a woman.

    I think he overreacted a little bit... I hope Boston can win this thing...it would be sad to see them out play them and lose this.

    Tomorrow I'm going to any casino and putting money on the Bruins and under 5 1/2. Should be a close game. 2-0 Bruins! I can't wait! Great playoffs so far! People who hate hockey just don't get it...it's a great sport and these playoffs have been so fun to watch!

    Maybe the Sedins should actually do something.....

    Great game if you are a Bruins fan.....I have never seen anything like the tale of two teams that is the 2011 Boston Bruins....

    Well... Game 7 eh? I haven't watched any hockey this season, if anything I'm a Kings fan. Which would usually make me anti Vancouver. Plus, since the Olympics were up there, I don't think I could root for them after what happened... Not a big Boston sports fan either for obvious reasons. Flipping a coin on this one. Would just like to see a great game... OVERTIME!! wooo...

    Doesnt give Milbury the right to call them women. Women should be offended and Im glad the Sedin's played that card. Maybe Milbury should stick to destroying hockey teams and trading Roberto Luongo and Olli Jokinen for Oleg Kvasha, Mark Parish and Rick Dipietro. Guy stunk as a player, as a coach, as a GM and now as a commentator. He doesnt really have wiggle room to comment on the effort anyone else is putting forth. Ooops

    Vancouver and the Sedins are making him look smarter than he is.....

    Oh speaking of a Sedin, these guy are soft as soft can be.....I have no doubt that Boston wins tonight....especially if they stick one in early...

    Congrats to the Bruin fans. Sorry the Nucks couldn't give them a better game 7. I won't be going in to the other thread, so this is it for me. Hopefully your BC friends work things out with you soon UT. If they are real friends, I'm sure they will.

    Shame that the Canucks put out such a weak showing but Boston certainly earned this one. Maybe next year...

    Happy for the people here who are Bruins fans. I still hate Boston teams but Canuck fans showed they know how to act like idiots after the fact anyway so they dont deserve it.

    Went to the Palms today where the NHL awards are being held at. Saw the cup! pretty cool. Met Dan Bylsma, real nice guy, was with his wife and kid. Nick Lidstorm was pretty cool to. Met Daniel Sedin. He was really cool too. His brother was not there. luongo was there and he is a prick. he did not sign anything just scribbled stuff and would not take photos.

    Off topic, the Palms missed out today on a golden opportunity. They had the most NHL fans they will have in that building, yet they did not have the future for the 2012 stanley cup. They have 2012 NBA championship but not NHL
