Serioulsy milbury is selling Kessel short here, bad goal not so much, through the legs at light speed perfectly placed...

I always wondered what happened to my grandmother's drapes...

 

[Bruinswillwin77]

I want the caps to lose but I don't want the pens to win? Weird feeling series...

 

[ashnathan]

Kessel on FIRE!

 

[ashnathan]

Cals are toast. Toaaaaaaaaast. And its all Orpik'a fault. That is HILARIOUS. Orpik is such a piece of **** hahahaha

 

[BklyNBruiN]

Oh my goodness.. Wow.. Looks like Ovie/Washington will lose yet again in the post season.

 

[BklyNBruiN]

Not over yet but hmmmmm..

I'm Waiting for Orpik to give Trotz the stone cold stunner and rip off his jersey, revealing a Pens jersey

I don't like either team but it is nice to see Holtby get lit up . How often through the year did we have to hear how good that Washington team was and now they are done like dinner .

 

[Bad Puck Bounce]

I've been actively rooting against the Caps from about March on . Just can't stand being force fed how amazing they were and how no one in the East had a shot at them.

 

[ashnathan]

My bracket challenge is looking more and more likely. Pens Blues with a Blues win, what do I win? haha. Seriously though, I never thought Caps would top Pens, kryptonite, honestly. Pens to them are Caps to us, can't beat them. The monkey is still on the Caps back, 2nd round wonders.

Kessel 17 goals in 33 playoffs game
But too fat and not good enought for clode and bruins
Oh it is true, not important to be good in playoffs , bruins not make it since a moment

Has anyone ever said Kessel wasn't good in the playoffs? That isn't why he isn't a Bruin, unlike Seguin.

 

[Bruinaura]

I am not a fan of either team but I want the Caps to lose, so I am rooting for the Penguins while holding my nose. But I like Sullivan, and there is part of me that wouldn't mind seeing Kessel succeed.

 

[since76]

Some coachs can use kessel and pure offensive players in a positive way and some other just not good enought....and those coach who can't are not in playoffs in 2015-2016 NHL amd will not soon

I have read here thousand of negative post about kessel and how he is not energic , he is not trying hard...bla bla bla...but when playoffs come he is always better than any current bruins players and he was dominant against habs...but......he is not kelly or axelsson so..not good enought for clode

 

[Cronuss]

I absolutely despise the Capitals.

That said, I'm not sure how ANY Bruins fan can actually wish the Penguins to beat anyone other than Montreal.

Go... Caps.

Sadly yes. Actually quite a few.

In fact, I don't remember who, but there was quite a group of posters that pinned Toronto's game 7 loss, I kid you not, on Kessel.

I'm going to hit the search function:

Edit(Ignore the Reimer highlight, all I could remember is saying that it's not Kessel's fault Reimer can't stop a puck):

among others

One of HFs biggest BS lines is that Kessel isn't a playoff stud. Don't know where it came from, don't know why it came about. I think it's just from lots of practice. "X isn't a playoff performer, so we didn't want him!" and Kessel accidently snuck in there.

 

[ashnathan]

Kessel is feeeeeeeeling it.

 

[bruinsfan1970]

I hate the Caps, hope pitt finishes them off tonight

 

[Caper Bruins fan]

3-2.. It should be a wild finish .

 

[Bruinaura]

Not smart to leave Justin Williams all alone there. Caps are making it interesting.
