I would of been more impressed if it was a Black and Gold with a Marchand's face.

LOL, well, the second bird was olive in color- maybe Brad?

I've been seeing a lot of black and yellow birds in my yard the last week or so- they love my apple and pear trees. It is such a rarity, though, to see them around my neck of the woods- they are beautiful. I was just so tickled yellow (intentional) to see that the first birdie to eat out of the bird feeder was a black and yellow one. I expected either a Robin or a Blue Jay- plenty of those birds around here!

High of 60 today.... that's awesome. Ice should be as good as it's going to get tonight.

Random Steve ott hate, but do you think he ever thinks about the brain trauma he caused his teammates when he wouldn’t answer the bell and would let guys like Barch get punished for him instead?

Probably not, he’s a sack of turds

Steve Ott was a giant piece of poop on the ice but I will never forget the support and kindness he showed after the Marathon stuff. He was one of the guys who approached the B's to plan the stick salute and also visited the memorial and some of the first responders.

Key words from Cassidy.
Play the right way.
Play winning hockey.
Team Defence.

Those words keep coming in Cassidy's interviews same as players. Play the right way, play our game. So they don't have to adapt to other teams.
Cassidy makes in game adjustments to situations.
Minor changes and adjustments.

They play the right way and they are winning the games.

Which isnt saying much!

Ive seen postings here that they're looking to do an overhaul of the system this summer. Hope that is true. Not to sound so negative but it's a little ridiculous and rough to have such poopy ice conditions after all of the renovations they have done recently.

I bought this at the beginning of the playoffs, it was something like 20$ at the time iirc. I can watch every playoff game live and I can also watch full games later from the archive. It's a great deal. But depending on where you live you, it might not work so well for you. It says blackouts apply (not sure if only to live games or also the archive). I live in the Netherlands and there are no blackouts for me, but you should check whether that's the case for you before buying it.

Many thanks! I live in New York, just subscribed, and game 1 is there with various options for which broadcast to watch. Looks great, I am officially not bummed.

I actually thought we were getting more calls this year. I have a theory as we get more skill we will get more calls. Meaning the bias is against the style of play we associate with and not the color of our uniforms. Still just a working theory.

We have to get them off their game again. It's one thing the Blues said the Bruins have an identity of and are really good at. Keep at it and force them to play our game.

VPN worked for me in Italy! Using the NBCSN app, and making sure my location services were off for that app.

I would of been more impressed if it was a Black and Gold with a Marchand's face.

With that face it wouldn't be able to fly. Skate like an MFer but fly? Naaaah LOL.

McGuire: Blues will be better in Game 2

NBC's Pierre McGuire joined the show to recap Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final.

"The Blues will be better in game two?" Welp, they couldn't be much worse!

Yea they have to upgrade it. Especially considering we expect to play deep into the spring each year.... hopefully they are in fact upgrading it this summer

Thanks Ali, I didn't know that. Until this very moment I thought that he was a *****!
Mind changed!

It might be 60 but it is humid.

I had to turn my heat back up...

Yea he got into some hot water for a few tweets that were a bit over the top but his sentiment was appreciated.

Longest work day every!!!!!

Drop the puck already!!!!

WE GOT THIS!!!!!!

I will be late in the GDT tonight have a chorus concert tonight at 7:00. hoping it will be quick and i can be home and caught up by the second period. total media blackout for me until i can back on track.

how dare they plan the concert for a game night. I am going to have to have a chat with that principal.

 

[Bruin]

I admit, I am very thankful I get to watch these on Pacific time I get one more game that I'm actually off the day of the game. The rest I'm going to be hoping I don't have to go on any farm calls and no emergencies through the doors at the last minute.

I have to agree, living in Alaska certainly has it's advatanges, like 9am Pats games on Sundays, 4 pm SCF games, and NFL games which are all over by 8pm. If I could get NESN up here i'd be all over it.

 

[Lordstanley]

Am I the only one that doesn't want to get any work or get anything done today....Lol
It seems like every cup game so far.....

 

[Alicat]

So Robert Thomas is out tonight

 

[lopey]

Blues reporter saying Robert Thomas out tonight, just reported on 98.5

[Prince Pasta]

So Robert Thomas is out tonight

obviously, he died the other night didnt you see his wiki page

 

[Alicat]

Brady is going to make the Garden literally shake tonight.

I love it!

 

[ODAAT]

I will be taping this on betamax, but fear not fans, I have an incredible 7-1 record when being forced to PVR playoff tilts so there`s that.

Expecting a much more physically engaged Blues team tonight as they looked disinterested in game 1 outside of a few hits here and there. B`s just need to do what they did vs the Jackets and move that puck quickly making it difficult and frustrating for the Blues to use their physical game as much as they typically like to.

This one ends with the same score as game 2, with the same team winning

 

[Gordoff]

That would be great! These older warriors are precious and in the ensuing years will be remembered and loved by young fans as Orr etc has been through the decades...
