    Ryder and Krejci coming up big so far in game 4.

    Excellent play on the second goal. Looks like they weathered the storm at the end of the period to keep it 2-1.

    Even if the Habs were able to maintain that consistency they wouldn't stand much of a chance with our defense clocking out.
    I hope Grabovski (leafs) gets absolutely pummeled first game next season for taking out Markov.

    watching a replay of the game, wow ... Kessel was so offsides on the third goal (the one where he came out of the penalty box) ... I mean, it was a fast moving play ... but, he was offsides by a few feet.

    Thank frick a Boston fan caught this.
    I was laughing my ass off, and my buddy (boston fan) was naturally telling me he wasn't.
    I saw three replays that made him look way offside, but no one said anything on the bench, announcers, or the Montreal forums so I figured I just wasn't seeing it right.

    NESN picked it up down here and showed a replay later in the game.

    Was hoping for the Rangers, but Lundqvist has been damn good. I honestly think they're the best team in the east. Good goaltending and real deep, not many teams can consistently roll all 4 lines. I'm just glad to watch a real good team for a change because it's been a very very long time in the making.

    Koivu pretty much just said if he's not signed by July 1st he's gone.

    Where'd you see/hear that?
    I will miss that guy. Heart & Soul.

    Thanks for the link. I can understand his sentiments. Also glad to hear Kovy wants to stay. Tanguay having surgery, I don't expect him to resign as he's making a lot more than he's playing over the last 2 seasons.
    Komisarek doesn't sound too reassuring, lol.

    And as far as you guys go, you definitely have potential and a real shot. I think the B's need to play a little more disciplined depending on your opponent as you got away with a lot of calls against Montreal. If you run up against the ice chickens you're going to be shorthanded a lot.
    It'll be harder, too, going up against a team with a defensive core, but given the 'johnny on the spot' sort of luck and positioning you have had all year, you never know.

    Komisarek probably looking out west to get away from Lucic. lol

    B's gonna have to fit Krejci and Kessel in under the cap which will likely go down.

    I thought the cap decrease was 2010-2011?
    nah, Komisarek isn't scared of Lucic. I do wish he'd stop trying to fight him though, and let Georges take care of it. Injured all year because of that.

    Hope you're right about the cap decrease.

    Georges not ready for lucic after being TKO'd by Bergeron thundering lefts, in his first and hopefully last NHL fight.

    Good enough to keep him on the top line in place of Tanquay most of the series. What the hell was that about? Hickey the reporter from the Gazette said Laraque can hang on to the puck just doesn't know what to do with it.

    That was to keep Chara away from Kovalev, and it worked, but it was bizarrely over-used.

    He had amazing success in drawing penalties from the Penguins, because they couldn't knock him down off the puck and would end up getting a hook, crosscheck, etc.

    PS - it is good to have a hockey talk with an opposing team fan (Bruins no less!) that isn't entirely consisted of macho gloating.
    The buddy I've mentioned numerous times has had a good gloat streak this year. I didn't say a word to him over the last 2 playoff eliminations of Boston, or the 12 in a row streak ending game 2 this year. Karma will get him ;)
