2018-19 Stanley Cup - Bruins vs Blues

[fair catch fryar]

I would agree. Why would the NHL care? But its Bettman we are talking about, the dude is literally boo'd everywhere he goes.

Further, Boston's run in the last 20 years has been a "city/region wide thing". It transcends a single team or sport. If the NHL can't understand that then they are simply more tone deaf than I give them credit for.

Bettman blows...almost as much as Goodell.

Yeah we used to heat our new blades over the stove too, though I didn't bend mine to the extent my brother did. He was a Bobby Orr man and played left-handed defense, while I was an Esposito man and played left-handed centre, though I gradually switched from left-handed shooting to my more-natural right-handed shooting...but I loved the back-handed shot, which is far more effective on a straight blade, so my blade curve was never really pronounced.

Whenever we did see other kids with seriously-curved blades, they reminded us of one of Esposito's linemates at the time, Ken Hodge. Talk about a curve...his had to be only barely legal...and you're right, those shots that kids would take with them used to go all over the place.

You have a couple years on me. I became a full on fanatic during the Rick Middleton, Gerry Cheevers, Terry O'Reilly, Brad Park Bruins.

David Krejci Jokes About Possibility Of Tom Brady As Bruins Banner Captain

A little birdie told me TB12 will do it game 7 if it gets that far.

Can he pull a hammy waving the banner?

Ahh the good old days when the Bruins had 1.5 lines - 2 D-Lines and a decent goalie.

Back when every B's fan was praying for the good Lord to call Jacobs home because we didn't stand a chance with his cheap azz holding the purse strings.
Who knew a hard salary cap would work almost as well?

The cap absolutely helped the B's no question.

Read something which stated since the cap was implemented the B's have the 3rd best record in hockey

I'm among the first to rag on Jacobs for his cheap azz ways back when all the B's needed was a couple of second line guys to put them over the top but I'll at least give him the nod for not being a hypocrite. He never pretended it was anything other than a profit driven business and they've pretty much spent to the cap every year. Jacobs didn't really set out to own the Bruins. He bought the Garden, the team just came with it.
