Stupid Boston Bruins...
...great way to let a team get back in the series...now you're gonna lose the seventh game at home and blow the chance to host the eastern conference championship.

2. Teams seem to come back more frequently in hockey than in
other sports.

3. I think coming back from a 3-0 deficit has only happened 3 teams in the NHL.

But there is a lot of instances of teams coming back from 3-1, which is still impressive.

Look at it this way, Joey. Remember back in January when the B's won the Winter Classic and then proceeded to go 0 for the rest of January and slid to 13th place? If you had told me then that they were even going to make the playoffs I would have been thrilled. Let alone taking the 2nd round to a 7th game. Win or lose, I'm thrilled they made it this far at all.

They're getting instant help from the draft this year (2nd pick overall, either Tyler Sequin or Taylor Hall, both of whom are potential Crosby like talent), and they'll probably grab a free agent for more offense, so imagine this team next year with that D plus an improved offense.

Things are good in Bearsville, no matter what happens tommorow. :)

5. This is classic
Everyone was saying how the Sharks were going to choke again and the biggest choke this playoff year might be the Bruins. Or should I say the Brew-ins? Gotta lay off those pre-game brews.
