Well don't agree....after Laine's goal...still around 50 sec. to play and with an explosive team like the Jets you never know.....

Gaby you said Subban did a bad penalty. Penalties are only bad when they result in a tying PP goal. If you are winning and the other team doesn’t tie the game it’s not a bad penalty. It’s a good penalty because you created a good advantage for your team and got away with it. It’s like a walk in baseball. Sometimes they are good but if the game tying run scores not good.

A good penalty Is when you stop a shure goal, bring a better player to the box with you or when you come to a teamate's defense. In most cases you then have to kill that penalty making you vulnerable. I don't see how that can be advantageous. A deliberate walk In baseball is a very common occurrence that helps the team on the field by getting rid of a dangerous hitter or by filling the bases to make it easier to get outs, it is a gamble. Once again I don't get the comparison... But that's me!
Anyway the Bruins are 2down seem out of it and come back with a goal... All 8 teams in these playoffs have the fire power the Habs lack.

2-2 very fast pace and exciting hockey.
In a bar with other hockey nuts, mostly sad Hab fans... That don't see the light at the end of the tunnel yet... Especially in comparison with these teams.

 

[gaby]

yep 2-2....would not be surprise if we are going in ot.....BUT what about Marchand's attitude..kissing and showing his tongue.....disgusting....he really needs a boyfriend.....lol.

 

[EagerBeaver]

I did not see it but I heard that Marchand licked the face of Callahan. I know he was warned by the NHL not to lick opponents, but if there is no penalty against licking it can't be called, can it? Or is it grounds for unsportsmanlike conduct to be called?

 

[gaby]

Yep.... IMHO it could certainly be called for ,,,MISCONDUCT and 10 min. penalty.

 

[tiga]

I would suspend him for the rest of the playoffs just for his bad breath, enough. Yes unsportsmanly.

 

[gaby]

Well well well....here we are in ot...hope for another goal from Stamkos....

 

[tiga]

NHL Issues To Marchand Cease and Desist Order on Licking

http://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/...-forward-brad-marchand-stop-licking-opponents

Brandon Prust is quoted saying that the $5,000 fine he got for spearing Marchand was the best 5K he ever spent including his Turks and Caicos vacation LOL

 

[jalimon]

I can't believe a guy like Bergenon is not capable of telling Marchand to concentrate on hockey and stop being a complete idiot... He is a distraction to the team which are now down 3 - 1...
