Barring some unforeseen collapses, looks like we're going to get Tampa next round and that's going to be 7 games of hate.

They definitely belong. They are up against a awfully good team playing really well.
Colorado is great but Nashville dominated the play against the Coyotes as well. They got outshot by 10 a game against Nashville and nearly 20 per game against Colorado right now. Absolutely not a playoff-level team, I think this is a great example of how wonky it is for certain teams to get in in this format playing 5 game series.

Well 8 teams in the conference make it. I don't see 8 teams that are clear-cut better than Arizona. You can debate the disparity between the top teams right now (Colorado/Vegas) vs. the lower seeded teams, but I would lump Arizona in with a bunch of western teams who are all about the same caliber IMO and can win on any given night, some that are also still in the playoffs.

Hopefully Columbus gives them a bruising anyway. Tampa seems to get away with murder every shift no matter who they play.

My only question is this: what did Jack Edwards think of the hit ???? ( immediately ducks for cover )

Depends:

If made by a Bruin - loses his mind in excitement.

If landed on a Bruin - make unnecessary and cringeworthy remarks about the player and his family.

If it doesn't involve the Bruins - oh look a hit.

Shoutout to the audio guys at NBC/NESN I’m sure their jobs aren’t easy right now trying to hide the curse words while still giving us the sounds of the game.

Canucks are trying to be physical and rough to match it with the Blues but they suck at it. They just draw silly penalties and take their focus off their game. Need to get back to playing their own way and making use of their speed and skill.

I get they're frustrated, we ALL get that here in Bruins land, but trying to fight fire with fire with St Louis will not end well for them. As it is I can see this series rapidly slipping away from them.

Yeah he was really effective. That 3rd line was such a massive reason for getting that far.

In reference to Binnington, in addition to the save on Marchand, he also had these ones:







Have to give credit where it's due, that was a big-time performance.

This is the first time I have looked at game 7 highlights since that night...ugg
