Weren't they considering throwing Simmonds on Jagr's line?

Not a fan of the 3rd line at this point. Excited to see JVR/Giroux/Jagr together.

Stanley Cup Champs. Book it, bitches.

this whole thing made me sick watching Boston celebrate. They deserved it but farg boston

Don Ho · October 06, 2011, 07:28:36 PM

Wonder if this is all helping deal with the Red Sox collapse?

Love the music from The Contender. Waiting for Sly and Sugar Ray to hoist the banner.

Not so much Timonen.

Train wreck has started early...

Looked bad early but you had to know Boston was going to come out on fire considering the cup ceremony at home. Could have been a lot worse, Bryz made some solid saves. D looks like they've settled in.

Yeah, they've turned it around nicely. That was a pretty pathetic display by Pronger and Timmonen during the power play goal, though.

Chara is a cowardly flag. And so is the bitch in the booth trying to poo-poo it away.

BigEd76 · October 06, 2011, 10:03:08 PM

good win
