OT: Bruins vs Zebras...er...Lightning Game 5

[maust]

Nash upended...crickets

 

[maust]

Man that ice is slow

 

[SHOWTIME15]

The guys in the black & white uni's have had a bit to do with that

Boston just hasn’t played well for much of this series

 

[RobertWeathers]

****ing Miller. Fans on the clear

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Great goal by point

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

Lightning even it up at 1 a piece. Damn refs.

 

[maust]

Another giveaway...another Tampa goal

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

This team deserves to go home despite the lousy officiating. They have been sloppy and they can't get anything going offensively.

 

[Kontradiction]

Wasn’t Rask considered one of the most promising up and coming goalies when the Bruins won the cup a few years ago? What happened?

All the other series have been competitive minus this one.

True. You'd think in consideration of that Tampa wouldn't need the help they've been getting

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Clean hit on Backes

I wish our guys could create offensively. Marchand for the most part has done more licking than goal scoring.

 

[maust]

Big PK here

 

[maust]

...or not

 

[RobertWeathers]

Out hit + Out skated = Out scored

 

[PatriotsNumero1Fan]

If you can't beat them just give them penalty chances. This series has been a complete dissapointment. I expected a long series and it will be a short one for the Bruins.

So what do you do with this team going forward? To make the playoffs's an accomplishment and they got past the first round. It seems like they just might be good for only that.

You add more talent and mental toughness.

He was but just hasn't lived up to being a top netminder in this league. His meltdown with 1 minute remaining in Game 6 of the cup finals between boston and chicago a few years ago told me everything I needed to know.
