wow. that is a ugly stat.

I love the fact that they were playing Stone Cold Steve Austin's music over the PA as it was happening. The Patriots need to sign the guy who threw the beer to a vet minimum contract and get him to camp. That was one of the finest beer throws I've ever seen. A laser.

it was a center mass shot. bullseye.

They need to change this Sunday. Tough to win when the offensive stars go MIA.

Unfortunately game 6 was in Boston and the Canucks were horrendous on the road.

Fortunately the Blues are 500 at home.

Sure, but what’s their home record since the start of this calendar year? Big difference going from worst team in the league to the springtime. A lot has changed since they went #31 to #12, overall. For one, Binnington was 24-5 since being inserted as the starter. The .500 stat is likely heavily skewed towards their disastrous start.

Still....fingers crossed. Win on Sunday night (a daunting task in that environment) and things begin to look differently. Unfortunately, none of the top 6 players decided to join the team for this finals appearance, so it probably won’t matter.

As bad as the top 2 lines have played, I’m surprised the series is still going

I think they’re 500 at home in the playoffs

home ice in hockey means next to nothing.

Oh, well that’s a big difference from where I was going. I had not heard that stat. I stand corrected. I simply assumed that a team that was in last place in the entire league would have some skewed numbers prior to taking off.

Ya I think they’re 6-6 at home this playoffs, 9-3 on road

Wow.. Makes it seem like they’re shooting on this guy..

They are certainly beatable. I expect we will see the Bruins' best.

I watched a little NHL Network and the St Louis bias is just over the top. It's clear the league is trying to direct the narrative here. They were blaming Acciari for not getting up and one bozo actually said it was a borderline call. Maybe they missed his head bouncing off the ice. I don't know why they're bothering. Everybody outside of Boston is thrilled. It's like non-overturns the Eagles befitted from when all that year those weren't catches. Nobody cared because it went against the Pats.

He should be having a meeting with league safety along with Barbashev and both the guys who had head shots on Krug. If that was Marchand he gets at least a game and any other Bruin gets a game.

NHLN = Toronto.


Toronto, fans and media, hate the Bruins.

I was actually surprised to see Craig Button’s take on the non call during Leafs Lunch today
