LOL Krejci just hooks and slashes the crap out of Aho and then Martinook gets called for a big LEGAL hit. What an absolute joke. 

It was borderline legal. But if this series has taught me anything. It’s not the Boston Bruins. It’s the Boston Floppers.

We avoided a sweep this year so I guess thats something. Guess all the fans who wanted Boston so badly and said it didn't matter got what they wanted...... another exit from the playoffs!  We took out the caps and swept the islanders last year before being swept by Boston in the conference finals. We just dodged a sweep this year by one win. Not all matchups are equal and barely getting one win between two playoff series shows that.  The poor officiating argument doesn't really help the reasoning why some would want to play them so badly either. Clearly, playing them matters. It is what it is but just makes me laugh how the ones who were all bring them on are now crying foul.

 

It reminds me of when Alabama squeaked into the top 4 for the 2017 season. Clemson fans were bragging about the tide not deserving to be there and to bring them on. Seeing them cry after losing and watching Bama grab the championship was pretty sad.

Name one person here who “wanted” Boston. And with the way we played it did not matter one bit. Philly, TB and the Caps all would’ve beaten us.

I did. I fuging wanted revenge and thought we were catching them at a low point. 

Well....didn't happen.

As long as the Caps and Bruins lose, I can watch again.

    • Not much to tear down on the roster. A few contracts to dump but really pretty bare bones due to years of poor management and not being able to get more expensive people to come into their mess.  100% on holdovers. The problem is the Teppers will be a part of the hiring at some level, which they have failed at in every way. I can't see a way around that hurdle unless it's pure luck at this point.
    • Like I said, it doesn't matter how far he can or cannot throw the ball. Most (95%) of the game is played within 20 yards of the line of scrimmage anyway. Having a big arm is plus for sure but not completely necessary. Height and  weight is up there and I would argue more important than arm strength. Accuracy and being able to function under pressure is priority number 1 if you ask me.
    • A serious mid-week question:  If you were forced to pick who'll win straight-up for this week's game, who's your choice?  Carolina or Atlanta? Pros for Carolina:  finally, a home game. Carrying over some of the excitement from last week's last 5 minutes. Division rival, chip on our shoulder to prove we can win, etc.    Cons: some key injuries, XL.  And, well.... (waves hands around) all that other stuff Pros for Atlanta: uh, they won last week? (reason for the question: weekly office football pool has the matchup on the sheet and I'm debating which to go with)
