The 2011 Playoff Hockey Talk Thread

[beefycheddar]

Really weird fact of this series- In 4 games as my wife turned the TV on going to bed, the Bruins scored within 20 seconds. Tonight she turned the TV on as Bergeron scored the third goal.

Beefy- Is the city of Boston just as excited for the Bruins as they are for Sox/Celtics/Pats in their Championship runs? Or is hockey on a smaller scale there? Im just curious...

And you guys are so lucky right now. theres nothing quite like your home city winning a mjor championship!!

Honestly I'd say this is slightly smaller than 04 Sox, but equal or ahead of the others. But I do only listen to Sports Hub where they actually covered Hockey before the playoffs unlike WEEI.

I'd echo this. This team really grabbed hold of the city, even more than the 08 Celtics.

I laughed. I certainly hope that the people in Boston understand what was happening. There's a unique hatred for Betman in Canada.

I didn't really care who won, but it's nice to see Recchi get another cup.

No it wasn't, but the media makes a big deal of the Cup drought for Canadian teams. That was my point.

Awesome to see Nathan Horton hoist the Cup. All those awful years in Florida to a Stanley Cup Champion!!


One of my favorite cards i own...

I will say though, the Vancouver fans are acting very politely for the Bruins.

I got sick of Jim Hughson and love Pierre Mcguire so I watch NBC whenever I can.

Way to go Boston!
