Post-Game Talk: Heads high boys and girls

[Rocko604]

My anger as turned to the Detroit Red Wings. They don't blow a 3-1 lead, we'd be Cup champions. No doubt in my mind we'd dispatch LA in 5 or 6.

It's all Detroit's fault.

Probably true but Bs had command of Chicago too and let them squirm away. Coulda shoulda woulda been a VERY satisfying victory lap to beat those guys. Still, a very respectable showing.

While this loss will sting for a while,I can still say I fulfilled my dream as a Bruins fan when we won the Cup in 2011.Rask is clearly going to be our no.1 for a long time but this loss only reiterates how special Tim Thomas's goaltending really was.Thank you Tim.

Agreed.

...and the Sabres.

I don't hate Buffalo.

Flyers, Nucks, Habs and matt cooke.

 

[Ladyfan]

Alright, I am over it.

had we not won 2 years ago, they likely would be planning my funeral.

I am ready for next season. When is Dev camp?

You have a good point. That cup in 2011 really makes things not as bad.

 

[Ladyfan]

i really dont think he was hurt.
i honestly dont think he liked playing with jagr as a linemate.

whatever it was, he was a complete no-show in the finals. when he did get chances, he missed the net by a mile.

Well ....my favorite moment in all of the playoffs was Marchy blowing past cooke and scoring that goal...and then skating up to cooke and yelling "WHAT ?"

They may never say but I believe Marchy was playing injured.

I'm still so sad

But i am already looking forward to being back in my seats come September for the first pre season game at the garden

To cheer the boys on and hope they can take me on another wild ride this year was a lot of fun

Toronto game 7 was the greatest sporting event I have ever attended and I was at the Superbowl to see vinateri split the uprights in 03

 

[hooked]

I'm in denial. I feel like I should be reading a GDT and getting ready to watch a game 7 that would probably go to OT.

It's over. This sucks.

I blame Malkin.

I am already looking forward to the 2013/ 2014 schedule so I can plan my one away game.

I do wish we were watching game 7 tonight though.

 

[blackngold4877]

Honestly feel cheated that we don't have a game 7 tonight. Just seems like this series deserved it. Bruins just didn't have enough in the tank to close out game 6. Sucks. Even if we eventually had lost tonight still feels like we should have seen a 7 game series.

 

[MoreOrr]

Well, we've reached the last moment of mourning, I should say. Mourning the loss of game 7 that would be now, which unfortunately was lost before it was able to happen.

Great Playoffs, Bruins. You know we're always with you through the highs and the lows.

Yep!

100% Malkin's fault

 

[Shaun]

We should be getting ready for puck drop

 

[ElkabombKid9]

and as usual it looked like they went into their defensive shell instead of continuing to attack

I said that also after Lucic scored the go ahead goal. They went into that defensive shell instead of continuing the attack. In other words they played to lose instead of to win, in those final few minutes. My opinion of course.[/QUOTE]

I agree. Just can't figure out why this mindset continuously either seeps into their minds or is told to them. I mean you literally dominated this team all night, killed of a huge penalty right before and decide the best game plan is to let some of the best forwards in the league come at you. I am by no means a Claude fan and have heard much criticism on his personal decisions on the last goal. But now knowing What Bergeron was dealing with it's a though call to put him out there and this is one of many crucial situations losing Campbell reaaaally hurt. Still (and I know he didn't have his regular go to guys to rely on) putting the correct personnel on the ice in the final minutes is Not Claudes strong suit offensively or defensively.

I just watched the replay of the Hawks last two goals again(I was in a state of disbelief the first time around).I mean how does Brickell get that wide open in front of the net with a minute left in the game,Lucic,I love you man,but where we're your brains and the last goal is one of those plays that 99 out of a 100 times just does not happen,it usually ends up as a broken play.That was our game

 

[BeantownEMT]

I went from "we're going to win the game" to "aggh another OT" to "...that did not just happen". Still reliving those 17 seconds.

On the Bickell goal that is just a 6 on 5 situation, someone is going to be open.

The winning goal shouldn't have happened though - 1 Hawk beats 2 Bruins to the net.

Perhaps you are right but it is not like Lucic was covering anybody else at the time.
