The pre-banter thread was ripe. This rivalry doesn't need much fuel to erupt.
Banter 2014: This time it's still not personal
Pro-Habs talking points (repeat these until they're true)
Anti-bruins talking points (these are actually true)
If you're ever caught in a debate, just fall back on the previous points and refuse to concede any points. Always remember the following:
Happy posting!! And don't forget the Avatar Bet Thread.
Banter 2014: This time it's still not personal
Pro-Habs talking points (repeat these until they're true)
- The Habs are the ONLY Canadian team in the second round. All of Canada supports us - even if they say they don't.
- Team Canada's *STAR* Player, Carey Price, is a Hab. He's the best goaltender in the league.
- One of the most underrated coaches in the league, Michel Therrien, preaches respect to all his players and gets them to play an attractive, no-frills kinda game.
- Great young players like Subban, Gallagher, Eller, Bournival, Beaulieu, Tinordi and Galchenyuk are relied upon for important duties at all times.
- Wily vets like Briere, Bourque, Bouillon and Murray bring stability to the lineup with their consistent play.
- Deadline acquisitions Weaver and Vanek go to show that we're truly Stanley Cup contenders
- Physical players like Parros, Moen, White, Emelin, Murray keep the other team on their toes and honest.
- Stars like Desharnais, Pacioretty, Vanek and 40goal man, Brian Gionta, can pretty much score at will. If you want high-octane hockey, you'd support the Habs
Anti-bruins talking points (these are actually true)
- They're the MOST notorious divers in the league.
- They traded Seguin away because they have rotten leadership who couldn't handle an 18 year old.
- Chara's mobility issues will be the end of him - it's a matter of time. Every time he's on the ice for a goal against - it's another sign of his impending drop-off.
- Rask is a basket case who is a career loser against the Habs.
- They got rid of patriot and hero Tim Thomas for his politics because the bruins organization hate free speech.
- Bobby Orr is the most overrated player of all time, if he's so good he would've played for longer than 8 seasons.
- Lucic is obsessed with player safety - when a player doesn't have his head up, or his cup on Lucic makes it his mission to remind them.
- Claude Julien is a loser who got fired from the Devils with 3 games left in the season. If it weren't for owner Jeremy Jacobs and Daddy Campbell, the Bruins wouldn't have won anything, ever.
If you're ever caught in a debate, just fall back on the previous points and refuse to concede any points. Always remember the following:
- Every hit by the Bruins is dirty and had intent to injure.
- Every hit by the Habs was clean and old school hockey
- The refs are CLEARLY biased against the Habs because of Jeremy Jacobs and Daddy Campbell
- The Bruins' 39 year drought is still longer than our 19 year drought. **** the Bruins.
- The Habs are obviously playing injured
- Chara ate his twin brother in the womb.
- Every win by the Habs was a dominant win and it wasn't even close, no matter what the scoreline says.
- Every win by Boston (yuck!) was by the skin of their teeth and the Habs woulda won if some of those bounces went our way.
- HFBoards is against the Habs because they're jealous of our success
- We're the underdogs. We're always the underdogs.
