Probably one of those cases where they should've called a hook and a dive, but they don't seem to like calling guys on the dive.

Daniel Bryan theme? :laugh:

I feel like every game other than Boston/Detroit gm1 has been phenomenal hockey start to finish. Maybe not from a defensive standpoint, but on entertainment and intensity they're all 10x better.

Once again the Jackets sure could use play off Horton right now.

Would love to see them take this game.

I always wonder if I'm harder on the B's because I'm too emotionally involved and too familiar with them.

Maybe I would have thought yesterday's game was better (purely hockey-wise) if it were played by 2 neutral teams.

Nathan MacKinnon man, too good. To think some people actually thought they should have taken Jones.

Jones may eventually prove just as valuable (defensemen take so much longer to develop) but MacKinnon is absolutely the real deal now. He barely looks like a rookie.

I think there is an element to not having any loyalties to the teams involved. I find I am far more critical of the Bruins than other teams.

But I thought the Bruins game looked messy and kind of tense boring.

I wonder that too. I think we just know that Boston is capable of so much more than we saw, and it kinda killed the game for me. I still think they played very well but they were missing the aggression for long stretches.
