EQF (4) Boston Bruins vs (5) Toronto Maple Leafs (Bruins win 4-3).

I feel bad for Brian Burke. This is his team and the goalie he always believed in is playing lights out.

Reimer is the real deal.

I want to cheer on the Leafs because I like them but for the sake of my pool, Go Bruins!

[Flamenspiel]

Second night of a back to back for the older Bruins tomorrow night. They are done. I'd really like to see Rangers-Leafs.

Leads/Rangers series would bump the Blues pick up for sure.

Not taking anything away from Reimer, he was good and made the positional saves needed. Bruins did crap their own bed tonight though in my opinion.

Their plane is also stuck in Toronto with a mechanical issue, and they won't fly out until the AM - one more wrinkle in their routine.

Screw the Leafs. Go Bruins. Leafs are Canucks East to me in terms of hatred

[Iggy Snipe]

I bet Boston wins big time tomorrow night. Toronto is giving them a good run, but Boston has not played their best.

Bruins will have airplane legs tomorrow. Leafs with an advantage.

Strange that the Bruins would have plane issues given the situation and quick turnaround. Definite advantage for the Leafs. When is the last time that has happened? Leafs fans working on the plane?

At least the YYZ workers didn't put snakes on their plane.

Man does Boston ever struggle to manufacture offense. Just seem to have no idea what to do once over the blueline.

Everyone wants to put Reimer on a pedestal but truth be told he's J-S Giguere part two. Tries to play a blocking style and is very weak up high especially glove side. Watch the way he tries to raise his glove on high shots, its more of a shoulder shrug than anything else.

Not once did Boston test him up high. They keep trying to muscle pucks into the net which just isn't going to work given Reimer's ability to fight off low shots and Toronto's collapsing defense that outnumbers the Bruins down low and in the slot.

If Boston makes the necessary adjustments they'll win tomorrow. Not sure they will though; something seems to be missing with them this year.

You say J-S Giguere part 2 like it's a bad thing.

Referred more to the style of talent and play than accomplishments.

Giguere has had two huge playoff performances but one came in a dead puck era on a Mike Babcock coached team and the other came behind a defense that had Scott Niedermayer and Chris Pronger on it.

Giguere was a hard worker but he was a very flawed goalie and ever since he's played for ordinary teams he's shown himself to be a backup at best.

Reimer can be easily exploited, if the Bruins are smart enough to do so.

Despite the momentum on the Leafs side, I'm taking Boston to win the series tonight in game 7. It's one thing to win in a scenario where you are playing in an elimination game and your opponent isn't. It's quite another to win when your opponent is just as desperate as you are.

JS Giguere won the Conn Smyth in a year the Ducks didn't win the cup and later won the Cup... I think Reimer and Leafs fans would thank you for the compliment

[Fire]

Bruins win 5-1 tonight.

LETS GO LEAFS

This is bad I'm a Canucks fan and I'm cheering for the leafs so this is what Hitler felt like

[Table 5]

The amount of Leaf sympathy in this thread is disturbing.
