Congrats Coach! (Jack Adams)

Congrats Z! (Norris)

Congrats Timmy! (Vezina)

There’s no Stanley Cup this year, but the B’s brought some hardware back from Vegas.

Is anyone else getting antsy for next season?

T-E-A-M! 3-0

Another awesome game by the B’s. No matter the flurry of offense the Habs threw at them nothing seemed to rattle the B’s too much tonight.

Bitz was exactly what the B’s needed him to be. No one could tell that this was his first post season game.

While on the topic of post season firsts… congrats Thorty! Shawn Thornton got his first post season goal of his career tonight (with a helper to Bitzy!). It’s a bit comical that Bergergon gets into his first career fight in the same series that Thornton gets his first career post season goal.

And of course, it almost goes without saying, but there were numerous HUGE saves by Thomas throughout the game to keep the Habs and their fans out of it.

To keep with the Mortal Kombat theme…. “Finish him!”

The B's are a win away from the next round

Strong showing for the B’s, 5 – 1 victory.

It was a team effort last night. The Bruins came to play and the Canadiens didn’t. A few things worth mentioning from the game. First, Timmy Thomas with an assist. Secondly Patrice Bergeron takes on Josh Gorges (both 6′ 1 and 190lbs). Patrice won that one hands down. I don’t think I have ever seen Patrice with that level of anger and passion. Third point is that Lucic lost his cool last night and took a bad high sticking call. Because of that he was penalized with a game misconduct with an attempt to injure. Reports that I have seen on the net state that Lucic may be suspened until review by the NHL. Lets hope that gets squared away early Monday and he is available to play Monday night.

Video of Bergeron vs Gorges here

What a game…

Here’s some pics from Thursday. Here’s a YouTube video of Rancourt performing the national anthem.

Luch set the tone physically all night. Timmy was spectacular as usual. Axelsson looked like an All Star laying down some big hits and moving the puck all around the ice. All in all, other than some hiccups in the second period that was an awesome game.

The crowd was going nuts from the national anthem all the way till the fourth goal.

The B's take down the Habs in game 1

A great game and a brush with fame….

My voice is still hurting from last nights game, my hands are sore from all the clapping and high-fives that were going on last night. There were an awful lot of Canadians fan there last night rooting on the Habs with the chant of GO-HABS-GO, which was quickly followed up by HABS-SUCK. We can’t forget the Ole-Ole followed by the Your Gay – Your Gay. Section 314 was rocking last night! What a great evening! LOL.

All I can say is if Boston and Montreal happen to meet in the playoffs the city of Boston and Montreal respectively should call out the troops, because its going to get a little rough!

As for the brush with fame… After the game we went on over to the Boston Sports Grill for a bite, not too long after we sat down who shows up? None other than Tim Thomas. He was all dressed up and was hanging with a couple of other guys that I didn’t recognize. He sat one table away from us. The crow in the bar started chanting TIMMY-THOMAS …. Tim was very cool as usual, he signed some autographs and took some photos. Even for a few Montreal fans.

Bruins clinch Eastern Conference Title!

just home from the game, (will post pics later).. After a pretty slow start IMHO the Bruins had an energized third period and played well. The star of the game was definately Thomas with a solid game and the fact that he went after the punk Avery. I really hope the NHL looks at Averys stupid attempt at starting something and suspends him from play or fines his sorry ass. That was low and completely a hack move. I really wish Thornton was on the ice for that, I bet there would have been a different outcome.

Recchi! Recchi! Recchi!

Recchi scored twice in front of a very fired up and at times antsy Garden crowd. The B’s must be happy to have a win, but that was a sloppy way to win. Timmy’s awesome play kept the B’s in the game when Chicago could have easily had another handful of goals.

Other than a handful of awesome saves by #30 which got the crowd going, two other plays stand out. First was Recchi’s second goal and the other was Axelsson’s open ice hip check during a penalty kill in I want to say the second. Recchi had the crowd chanting his name when he came out for the #1 star.

No goals or big hits by Luch, but he did get a helper on Kessel’s goal.

Bruins Win!

Recchi hands out the stick for being the #1 star

Timmy!

19 players with point in the last two games including Tim Thomas who gets an assist on the Kessel goal, according to Andy Brickly the only Bruin without a point in the last few games is Hnidy.

Thort, Luch and Savard?!

carbone — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 02:07:15 +0000

Only the second period so far but what a display of total team play. Hunwick is taking care of business on both ends of the ice, Thomas is looking like the All Star he is (with his saves AND his assist!).

Thornton responds early in the second and has a go with Parros. Thort held is own, taking a few shots and ultimately got the take down. Parros looks like he’d play on the antagonist’s team in a movie.

Luch absolutely pounded Brown. Definitely not your normal bout. That was a personal battle being fought. He was certainly fired up afterwards.

We learned that Savy can only be pushed so far. Not much of a fight due to what looked like a loss of balance.

Of course, thrown in between all this fighting is four B’s goals with two of them scored by Kobasew.

Great fire and great team chemistry happening tonight.

John Bishop wrote it best…
“That is a fired up Bruins team going to the locker room. Anaheim poked the bear and the bear woke up.”

This should be an exciting third period!

Not too much excitement so far, but Bitz shines again. Good effort, good show of strength as he scores his fourth goal of the season.

Awesome team effort tonight

This is the best they’ve looked in a while. Good power plays, good penalty killing (SHG in the third!). Luch had an assist, a bunch of shots and bunch of hits. He keeps coming closer to back in form.

The Bitz, Thornton, Yelle line was fun to watch all game. I’d have to imagine that would be a hell of a line to go up against in a line brawl! Bergeron played very well – even had a huge hit in the 2nd. Sobotka made his presence know with his “Little Big Man” (thanks Jack Edwards!) style of play all night long.

Timmy was the man again. How many times has that been the story line for a B’s game this season?
