Post-Game Talk: ECSF/ADF - GAME 6 - GOODBYE COLUMBUS - BRUINS WIN SERIES 4-2

[ODAAT]

Matinee games suck, in my opinion. I hate them during the playoffs.

Agreed, I`m still adjusting to "night" games starting here at 4 pm

 

[Seidenbergy]

I think they probably would have started friday, but with the Celtics playing, they went the day before. I saw something that said Game 2 is Sunday at 3pm?

Carolina Hurricanes to face Boston Bruins in Eastern Conference Final

It does say this isn't confirmed.

Sunday afternoon game would make zero sense IMO.

Thursday and Saturday for games one and two of the ECF. Garden is available, unless they have something going on that isn't on the official calendar.

Friday and Sunday for the WCF.

NBC loves them some afternoon hockey. I think they're dictating the afternoon game. Fenway might have a better explanation.

I think the parade for the 2004 Sox was the largest by a wide margin (86 years will do that to you). I never know how much stock to put into crowd estimates, but i've heard the Bruins parade in 2011 was over a million people.

I heard that as well. As fella mentioned earlier, weather is a factor

 

[rfournier103]

Uh, I wouldn't go that far. There is nothing more fun that eliminating Montreal

Yeah. Exactly.

The Toronto/Canadian national media whine more, I think, but NOBODY has caused the Bruins more heartache than Montreal. Although THAT bill will never be paid off, but it’s VERY satisfying whenever the Bruins take a nice little bite out of the Habs.

Anyone who thinks that eliminating Toronto is a bigger deal than eliminating Montreal either hasn’t been a fan very long or doesn’t know their history. It’s like comparing WWII to the invasion of Grenada.

 

[Oilers in NS]

Pet peeve coming!

It's "Garden", not Gardens. The Gardens in Boston are where the duck statues reside. The "Gardens" in hockey is where the Leafs used to suck, before they continued to suck in their new place.

No worries, I got a guy here all mad at me because I put a video of Kyperos getting KO'd.

Oh BTW, the Leafs still suck. Im a Canadian but I hate the Leafs and the Habs

Im gonna get removed from here because fella is all mad. Rustybruins72 all worked up. Oh well

I worry about the NBCSN app reading my location and not allowing me to view it for being out of country.

If I can’t turn off the location on wifi I’ll have to try a VPN.

WHATEVER IT TAKES!

Or you can (whisper whisper....) off the internet. There are quite a few (whisper whisper whisper....) who carry the games.

Try living in Leafs country,been a Bruins fan for 50 yrs ,eliminating the Leafs is a bigger deal than Montreal now for me.

The Bruins have out rated the Celtics and have been voted ahead of them in the Boston survey I think in 9 of the last 10 years

2018 the Celtics passed them but this year Bruins over took them for 3rd in the city again

Game 7 Bruins finals 2011 did a 43.4
Game 7 Celtics Finals 2010 did a 33.3

The Bruins have always been the 3rd team in town and it’s not even close really

So am I safe to say:

1-Pats
2- Red Sox
3- Bruins
4 - Celtics

Yes but it’s quite a hassle finding a good feed, plus ads and such.

That’s an option though!

Well if you would ask me it is Bruins and I don't give a crap about the rest !

 

[Oilers in NS]

U might get in trouble in your town of Boston saying that in public

 

[BRUINS since 1995]

Well if you would ask me it is Bruins and I don't give a crap about the rest !

Red Sox and Fenway Park are legendary and the Sox jerset is beautiful. Pats, Belichick and Brady i just like. Celtic.... well i am a Raptors fan!

Boston is way in front.. i am a hockey guy first.

I don't care. I watch the Red Sox sometimes but I can't watch after playoff hockey. I have always disliked football and just don't care about basketball

 

[Ladyfan]

Why the **** are they rushing Game 1 on Thursday instead of Saturday?

I was wondering the same thing. I told my daughter (who is flying home from Calif for Mother's day) that I thought game 1 would be Sat so she purchased a very expensive ticket for game 1...Now she won't be home until Sat and has to try and sell that ticket and purchase one for game 2....

 

[whatsbruin]

I go to Italy next week I need to start strategizing how I’m going to watch the games.

NBCSN app hopefully.

pm me if you want.

Has it been confirmed yet ?

 

[BTO]

There's so much inaccuracies on this post... it not even funny.
Good God.

?? What? Why? It's literally true, that's exactly what happened. Whether he was pi**ed-off enough to not want to talk to KB after the game last night is another matter. But KB did ask him and he did snarkily skate away. Not inaccurate at all.

NBC loves them some afternoon hockey. I think they're dictating the afternoon game. Fenway might have a better explanation.

I believe NBC has two broadcast windows for the NHL this weekend - 8 p.m. Saturday (after the IndyCar Grand Prix from Indianapolis that will air Saturday afternoon) and the Sunday matinee.

The big issue is the WCF. If it's St. Louis, the Blues' building is booked Friday, so it would want to get Game 1 in before the ECF Game 2, thus a Thursday-Sunday-Tuesday-Thursday-Saturday setup for the ECF and a Saturday-Monday-Wednesday-Friday for the WCF. I believe it also allows things to be finished in time where the Stanley Cup Final could begin the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend, giving NBC two prime-time windows for Games 1 & 2.

It needs context. It misses the reason why Marchand acted that way. Kyle B trying to be a smart ass and rest of panel
Making fun of it.

That's the reason why Marchand schooled him.

I don't live in New England, but I've always perceived Boston as being a Red Sox town more than any. The Pats' successes during the Brady/Belichick era certainly push them up the pantheon (and possibly on a plane with the Sox), but there seems to be a special passion for the Red Sox.

 

[BTO]

It will be the minimum game suspension as he is not a repeat , the only thing he got going for him in this pow wow

They can suspend him for game 7 tomorrow night against Torts.
