[Zach]

So much for Bruins in 4 or 5. Hope the Habs get the next game.

The Markov nut shot that started the melee.

I'm sorry that the word 'gooning' just totally messed that up for you. Perhaps you'd prefer 'weak bull####' instead?

its hard to find one their size when they're ALL 6 inches shorter

Or the reflection of the that big red goal light in his visor?

Smart play or being wusses. Depends on your point of view.

Wait a minute, who says you can't be smart and a wuss?

They've done a good job of not being intimidated and after six games,I don't think it's going to start, unfortunately. That doesn't mean the Bruins are going to stop trying though.

The only problem I had with the whole thing (and I'm about to agree with Don Cherry, which is unfortunate) was that Markov started the whole thing with that trip on Chara, and then bailed out only to see Weaver take a punch in the face. Even when Iginla was into it with him a bit he was doing the whole babe-in-the-woods "who, me?" routine.

If you don't want to push and shove (or fight), don't blatantly trip the biggest toughest guy on the ice at the end of a 4-0 game and then pretend you don't know what happened or look to the ref. Just don't trip the guy. EDIT: and that gif above shows he also pulled the old "I'm going to introduce my stick to your balls" trick and then turn around. What a punk.

Bla bla bla, it's over. I am pumped for this game seven either way it goes.

He has been hot garbage this series.
I guess that's all he can contribute.
I could care less for the late game antics, one way or the other. It just reeks of desperation from the Bruins. Which is good

i don't think so. i'm sure i saw a laser pointer on the helmet in the one replay, but none of the videos show the replay when the camera is sorta behind the net. rrrggghhh

Probably not. It's probably that giant red stationary light that always comes on in that direction when there's a goal.

[Yamer]

I'm not sure if people are knocking Weaver, but really the guy has some pretty big stones to even confront a player a full foot taller than himself. The guy truly is a great hockey story.

Disappointed that the Bruins didn't just finish it off and advance tonight, but as a hockey fan I couldn't be happier that we get to witness a game 7 between these two rivals.

C'mon, Wednesday.

Apparently the could of been more severe . Lundquist was just fined $5000.

It's based on a percentage of their salary.

Typical Montreal BS. Cheap shot and then he cries to the ref.

[AcGold]

most likely the giant red light reflecting off the red cross bar

You are right it is . total bs tho. Thornton doing it had been during the play and on the benck. Lundquist was after and both on ice after the play . TotL garbage should be a across the board not based on %.

Don'tthink is a cry to the rEF situation. Its more of the linesman was quicker to the draw then either player.
