It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Part of me agrees with you and then part of me thinks that they played well enough to win last night and are one win away on Sun afternoon from forcing a game six back in Boston.If I'm Cassidy I start Anton Khudobin ...
The only thing that saves us is a goalie standing on his head ... maybe he can ... Rask hasn't.
He has been playing well ... but we need a Tim Thomas effort right about now.
Chara and Krejci are looking very old out there ... we're screwed.
We'll never see bloody rivalry such as the mid/late 90s early 2000s Avalanche /Red Wings ever again.Those squads were stacked. Pretty much an NHL all star lineup once they added the Russian national hockey team to their squad.
Crap.Krug seen leaving in a walking boot on crutches. That’s a huge blow.

Hopefully we’ll never see another Claude lemieux in the league
A despicable hockey player. Right up there with Bill Laimbeer for most cowardly, cheap, pathetic professional athletes in sports history.Hopefully we’ll never see another Claude lemieux in the league
Yea he really is....Bad news, there is one. You've been watching him for years
Agree.The Bruinshave gotten the worst end of the calls but the Lightning have outplayed them in this series. The bottom line for me is that Tampa Bay has more talent and depth. This Bruins team has a ton of character but they are too young right now to beat a team as good as Tampa is. I’m still hoping they can make a series of it and push Tampa to the limit, but it’s hard seeing them get out of this round. I’m not a Tuuka basher but I would seriously consider going with Khudobin as well. It sends the message that good isn’t good enough at this time of the year. If Rask can’t handle that then look at moving him in the offseason. It’s a risky move but I’m just not sure he will raise his game when it’s needed most, and caution doesn’t win championships.

Crap.
Yea thats a tough one.
Chara has been an enigma. Big Z certainly has a presence out there...but...its clear his D partner has instructions to cover for Chara's lack of skating ability....And Chara no longer can get the puck out of the zone. His turnover rate is glaring. Same goes for the other defensemen. Team strategy in their own zone....keep the puck on the boards or in the corners...don't put the puck in space where Tampa's speed can lead to opportunities.
I have never seen Marchand turtle. Lemieux was a coward, a talented coward but a coward nonetheless. Marchand is every bit the over the top instigator that Lemieux was and sometimes he is close to being as dirty but he doesn't run and hide. I think of Marchand as being more akin to Kenny Linesman but with much better hands. There's more of Theo Fleury in Marchy than there is Turtle Boy. Come to think of it, Marchand is this generations Fleury.
