Mixed Emotions....
.....I guess that's the best way to sum up my thoughts on last nights game in Toronto. First and foremost, I'm thrilled at another win. But on the flip side, the boys had another one of those games where they couldn't seem to get the puck out of their own end. Thomas was under siege much of the night. The Leafs hit three posts. The result could have been much different, if not for more horrid goal tending from Vesa Toskala (thank you VS for interviewing Ron Wilson right after the Kessel goal... Read Full Story
STUNNER! as Hab's "Fans" Accused of STUFFING Online All Star Ballots
Will these truly sad and warped losers ever quit cheating at anything...? Seriously... Anyway this reprinted from this past Sunday's Canadian National Post & Montreal Gazette: *All-Star Game’s online ballot-box stuffing an embarrassment From Dave Stubbs, Canwest News Service Published: Sunday, Nov 16, 2008 MONTREAL -- For decades, Montreal Canadiens fans have been known for their passion, knowledge of hockey and love of their team and its rich traditions. (This love is conditional, of... Read Full Story
Game Day @ Toronto 11/17/08
Short & sweet preview today, if only because it seems like we play these dopes every other day now. Word of the night for Boston has to be EFFORT. They barely showed up in Manhattan, they better make a big statement in TO. One game like the one at MSG Saturday is understandable, it happens. But if they follow it up with another lackluster effort.....well, you'll be sure to read about it here. Bottom line is, the B's are a WAY better team than the laughs, erm, Leafs. Their goaltending is a... Read Full Story
Sloppy, second
Well, I did say that beating the Rangers would have just been icing on the cake.....assuming the B's played well. And despite what I'm reading from the team and the media, I don't think they played well at all at MSG last night. Too often, those old bad habits of being too casual with clear attempts came back to bite them. Far too many times, guys like Chara made soft, lazy passes in their own end. If you fail to clear your own zone, eventually it will come back to haunt you. Personally, I... Read Full Story
B's NewsFlash! - Andrew Ference out 6 - 8 Weeks with Broken Tibia
This as just reported by Kevin Paul Dupont's on the Boston Globe Bruins Blog: NEW YORK -- Less than an hour to go before faceoff here, and Peter Chiarelli, the Bruins General Manager, just announced outside the Boston dressing room that defenseman Andrew Ference sustained a fractured tibia (right leg), will undergo surgery Monday for the insertion of a surgical pin, and will be lost to the lineup for up to eight weeks. ''He'll be out a bit,'' said Chiarelli. ''Maybe, collectively the whole... Read Full Story
Game Day @ Rangers 11/15/08
Game day today as far I'm concerned may as well be "Gravy Day". After beating Chicago and Montreal on back to back nights this week, winning in New York tonight would just be gravy. The B's have already had a huge week. Now, trust me, I'd love nothing more than to see them head down there and lay a beating on the Strangers. But if they don't, as long as they play well, I won't be all that upset. Then again, at this point I expect a win from the boys every time out.....kind of a nice change... Read Full Story
B's NewsFlash- Big Pansy Faints at Habs Post Game Spread!
Kynch's Korner has just learned that upon seeing a replay of the BEAT DOWN he suffered at the hands of Milan Lucic during last evenings B's/Habs game, The Big Pansy known as Mike Komisarek fainted over the Habs post game spread at the Garden! It's currently not clear if and how long The Big Pansy will be out the Habs line up but it's fairly certain that he'll mysteriously come down with a sudden case of "NoFightis Bruinitis" which is more commonly known as the Claude Lemieux Disease on or...

Beantown Beatdown
HAHAHAHA!!!!! Where to begin? A complete and total BEAT DOWN of epic proportions last night. Score one for the good guys. Since I can't decide where to start, I'll start with that over rated, under performing head case of a soft, feeble minded goalie of theirs, Carey Priceless. This kid is a classic front-runner. Give him a lead and play great hockey in front of him, and he plays great. Score on him early and create traffic in front of him, and he folds up like a cheap pup tent. I've said it...

International Diving Competition come to Boston...
.....disguised as the Montreal Canadiens. All I have to say about those pansies from Quebec (is that redundant?) is if they DON'T win tonight, they suck! The NHL seems to have gone out of their way to ensure those Mary's cruise through the season, in honor of their 100 years in the NHL. Three times Boston plays Montreal as the second game of back to back games. Including tonight, while Montreal chilled out in Boston, the Bruins were in a death struggle in Chicago. Not only was the game... Read Full Story
Original Six Week
Big week for the black & Gold this week. The fun kicks off Wednesday night in Chicago for a tilt against the resurgent Blackhawks. Years of awful play has earned them draft picks galore, which they've been using to stock pile some of the best young talent in the league. Patrick Kane, Jonathan Toews and Patrick Sharp are the most prominent youngsters up front. They also have the prolific Martin Havlat and former B's prospect Kris Versteeg chipping in quite a bit as well. In net, it's the two... Read Full Story
