Pre-Game Talk: ECSF/ADF GAME 5 7:15 PM 5/4 - THE BEAR needs to defend the cave

[Marcobruin]

I won't get to see this one, but i'll be going crazy while at work the whole time...

Cannot believe the Hurricanes are in the Eastern Conference Finals this year. That is not something I would've believed at the start of this season! But good for them I guess. I hope Boston can get there without another game 7. Team needs rest.

It was obvious the canes this year had a talented young team.i am not surprised they made the playoffs But beating Washington and finishing the isles in 4....no way BUT if the bruins get past columbus. The Buck stops here for the Canes. However if columbus happens to win series then it just continues to add to this years playoff unpredictable craziness .

Better win tonight and just play Bruins hockey and like I said before the last game just slow it down and screen Bobrovsky. Still hoping to see Clifton get the game winning goal.

 

[Krupp]

Hope you're right about the Bruins and the Canes, Marco....I'm worried this lack of rest is going to hurt Boston if they can't finish this in 6 games. Hell, even 6 games is still two more the Canes don't have to play..

These ain't spring chickens we're talking about. Boston's dealt with it all year. I've heard the Canes have had some struggles with injuries as well though

Even though they won, Columbus is outplaying them. They better show up or it’s over in Columbus for them.

Woke up feeling good. The first thing on my mind was tonight's game and a line from Ludmilla Vobet Drago in Rocky 4. "It will be a good victory."

Bruins better tighten up Their PP and giving up all these SH chances. It was a bad sign during the regular season and it has showed its ugly head again

That’s for sure time to go with two D at the points.

It's out there in the universe. It's a sign

Much better. No Rooney, Peel and Joannette. Much less stressful to watch. I am surprised yet grateful Chris Lee isn't reffing this round or the rest of the playoffs. I wonder what he did to be in the ref doggie house.

Oh me, too. Maybe you could hook up a fog machine near the entrance of his bench tonight with your sister?

Would you prefer Clifton in the lineup or Moore assuming Moore is healthy?

Clifton and it's not even up for debate.

I don’t want another repeat of what happened last series - having to win two elimination games in a row is taxing. Win tonight, win Monday, and have nearly a full work week before the ECF starts.

Game 6 is on Monday and you can fully expect the ECF to start on Thursday at the latest if the Bruins win in 6.
Even with a potential game 7 in San José on Wednesday, the NHL might start the ECF on the same day.

I thought that unlike the NBA, the NHL waited until the entire round was finished before starting the next one.

I know it's been done in the NBA, starting the next round before the previous round is over, but I don't believe the NHL has ever started a round before the previous round is completely finished.

Very doubtful they start Round 3 before Round 2 is over.

It is for debate, I would rather see Moore over GZ...

All due respect to John Moore and that fantastic contract he signed.....

I would plug you, me and the monkey from Most Valuable Primate before I slot Moore back in there.

I thought it had been the case a few seasons ago. Checked it and I was wrong.
In some instances they even gave all 4 teams an extra day off.

But still, if the Bruins win in 6, they'll most likely have game 1 on Thursday.
