it's a big choke job, but no way is it NEAR the sox v yanks.
I don't know how you can say that. Like I said, the yanks never led in game 7. That Sox/Yanks game 7 was over in the first inning. the bruins were up 3-0 in game 7!! That's like a 9 run lead in baseball.
Anyway, it was a great series between two average hockey teams. I'm not trying to pour salt in your wounds...tough loss. You guys still have hoops to fall back on. I don't feel bad for you though...boston has had too much sports success this decade. Nice to know philly still has one sport up on you guys
You said it in your post ... two average hockey teams, there was NOTHING average about the 2004 Yankees. People expected more out of that team ... beleive me ... in a few months, people won't really remember this, but EVERYONE will remember the 2004 ALCS.
Again, it was a choke job, no doubt ... but, imagine the Yankees losing Jeter and Matsui heading into game 7 of 2004 (I won't even say A-Rod because the Bruins had NO one on their roster that was that good), then what would people be saying?

Boston fans sure do what to put there head in the sand over this one.
oh well, we wern't suppose to make the playoffs
oh well, we wern't suppose to beat buffalo
oh well, it's just anouther game, no big deal.
i bet the papers have something diffeernt to say tommorrow.
at the end of the day tho, the next time a team is down 3 nothin in a series, you will be reminded about tonight. next team a team is down big in a game 7, the coach can say, remember that Philly Boston series from 2010 and the Flyers were down 3-0 mid way thru the 1st...well, they didn't quit, they kept fighting and won the game.
as much as you wan't to say this game, this series doesn't matter, just remember, people are going to be talking about it for years to come.
ok, now you can close up this thread for the year and i'll head back over to the Flyers thread.

I see what you're saying. I don't necessarily agree, but I got you. the bruins were still favored and the flyers were also without carter for most of the series too.

Nicely put
Im not gonna rub it in but to say it wont be a big deal for years and years in Boston is ridiculous

One last time. This is a big gag job, I never denied that.
But seriously, how much is a #6 seed really favored over a #7 seed.
And again ... they lost 2 key players in the first 3 games.
It sucks ... no doubt, I could never deny that ... but you really don't understand the differnce between cheering for the Bruins vs cheering for the Red Sox if you think there's any equivilence between this and 2003/2004.

you're on the other side of the fence this time. I'm sure yankee fans were singing the same tune as bruins fans back in 2004
but you're right...not like it was a monumental upset, just an epic choke job

Sorry this thread will never be closed it's just THE BOSTON BRUINS. So it'll be here next year when the team will battle for the Cup once again.

and Philly was without there number one goal scorer from the regular season (carter). Gags missed three games. they went thru 3 goalies. plus a top penalty killer was out for the entire series. please stop with the injury excuse

The Bruins ... this team ... most people probably didn't follow them until they made the playoffs which was what, a week before the payoffs started? And it's not like they lost to the Canadiens ... it was the Flyers.
Seriously, you don't see the difference?

so the stench of tonights performance will live in perpetuity. excellent
....And that's fine because what the Bruins did this year was a bonus towards the future. The future for this team is bright and so will the posting right here next year. Beat the Habs!

the bruins and yankee's are both in catagory that only has 4 teams. you can agure which of the 4 failures is the worst, but at the end of the day...you are still talking about the 4 worst collapses of all time.
Problem is this happens to the B's year in and year out. Last year they had the best record in the conference and lost in the 2nd round to a team they should have beaten. In 2004 they had a 3-1 lead over Montreal and ended up blowing that series. That was the legendary series with Kyle Mclaren beheading of Zednik. Can't the B's find a goalie who can stand on his head ala Halak. Rask really sucked in this series just roof everything and he is very average. They say he is the future I think that was said about Andrew Raycroft and Blain Lacher. This organization just don't have it whatever it is. Too many men are you fucking kidding me. Nice job claude lets roll 4 lines in the 3rd when you need a goal. When the celts go into a big game like last night, for the most part you know they are going to win. There is an aura of confidence about them. The B's have none of that and never will. At least we B's fans don't have to worry about the pink hats taking over the Garden. I am way too pissed off.

AGREED!!! I never said anything different.
However, the Red Sox ended up winning the World Series, their first in 86 years, and they went through their hated rival in an amazing fasion to do so.
The Flyers haven't won a trophy ..... yet. If they end up winning it all .. they way thay made it into the playoffs on a shoot out, and beat the bruins, and whatever else is to come ... will be one of the gretest stories ever.
But, before tonight ... could you name the other two teams that were up 3 - 0 and lost? Probably not .. but, I'm sure you could remember the Sox beating the Yanks in 04.

I hear ya. honestly I don't really feel like debating this. I think the B's choke job is right there with the yanks of '04. The flyers aren't the B's archrival...I get that. but it's still the playoffs. and they just blew a lead that only 3 teams in pro sports have ever blown. and they were up 3 in the deciding game.
any way you slice it this is one of the biggest chokes in US sports history. you can rank the yanks ahead if you want, but it's a case of 1 and 1A
Hey like I've been saying all Playoffs....It could be worse
You could be a CAPS FAN!!!
:rim shot:
Great point. I am just too pissed right now.
I hear ya dude
I would be slitting my fuckin wrists if the Flyers did this
This was bad it just happens too much. I guess its better this way as the Canadians would have beaten the Bruins anyway. They don't match up well and ahndled the B's all year. Hopefully the flyers can beat the Canadians. Halak has been fuckin nasty in the playoffs. I hope Hartnell or Richards nail that little prick Camallari. I would love to see Flyers and Hawks for the cup.
