    it's odd, because I really have no feel for how this is going to play out. This series has been full of streaky play.

    Sure, last night the B's won 4-2 and led by 2 or 3 for much of the game ... but, Carolina did out shoot them 34 - 19 and probably dominated the play for at least half, if not more, of the game.

    It just feel like when the Bruins score first, the Canes panic ... so, hopefully, the B's can put one in the net early on.

    Don't worry Bruins will win 4-1. Both Canes goals yesterday Thomas blew. He'd even admit that.......as for watching the game what are you waiting for? Call all the bars and find one that'll have it, even if it's an hour away find that bar!!!

    Looks like Time is noticed the lack of NHL coverage too. More to do with the Caps/Pens series than Boston, but still relevant.

    good read ... thanks for posting ....
    The series is drawing a smaller audience than last year's College Baseball World Series, on ESPN, when it averaged 1.4 million viewers.

    ouch!!!

    Some dissappointment in the Capitals loss to the Pens. Great season by the Capitals and great play by the Penguins but the Caps will be back.

    Now time for the BRUINS to get the job done tomorrow.

    Well it's not that surprising.To keep it going for one more game was asking almost to much.
    Congrats to the Pens.

    The Caps sure showed up to play tonight! :arrow:
    {if (work != 0) {
    work = work + 1;
    sleep = sleep - work * 10;}
    else if (work >= 0) {
    reality.equals(false);
    work = work +1;
    }system("pause");
    return 0;}

    I hope the Bruins and Wings can play a much better game than the CAPS did! What a let down :(

    That wasn't just a loss....that was a complete embarrassment on their home ice. That was a sad, sad performance.

    I said Washington caved, then they won so I said maybe they hadn't, and then they pulled that last night, so, I was right the first time ;)
