Yeah, lucky call there for the Bruins for sure.

It's 2 freaking minutes. Not a huge loss for either team.

A loss of a potential PP for the Habs is kind of a big deal, actually.

Boston needs to use their size better. They're all giants compared to the Habs but they're not using it to their advantage enough

Agreed, but not in the mauling/hitting department so much; more traffic in front of Price would be nice. And whatever happened to Chara playing the Holmstrom role on the PP?

I was talking about the fact the commentators always make a huge deal when one of the better players sit for 2 minutes. It was Chara and Subban sitting. They cancel each other out. Not a big deal.

Ah, okay, gotcha. My bad.

Even then, both teams losing their #1 defenseman opens a hole at either end.

I see your point, though. It's an equal trade off that, all things equal, doesn't necessarily impact one team more than the other.

Woot !!!!!

What a stupid, lazy play by Marchand in the neutral zone

Weaver is having a heck of a game

[direwolf]

Brutal turnover by Marchand. That goal is totally on him.

[Nufy]

The other good guys tie it up...

[direwolf]

Boston has suddenly become turnover machines.

[SeeBass]

Bad on Marchand but he is the kind of player that will be the hardest worker the rest of the game.

[puckluck2]

Bruins are playing Montreal's game. They have to start dumping and chasing.

[direwolf]

Oh Iggy...so damn close!

[puckluck2]

Iginla is coming so damn close. Great pass as well.

[The Yen Man]

You have got to be kidding me. How many posts is that?

[M*A*S*H 4077]

The Krejci line has been the only consistently good line for the Bruins so far in this one

[puckluck2]

Can any team be any luckier?
