Oh well. You obviously never want to blow a 3-0 lead on the road, but Tampa's good and they're good when they're desperate. Ultimately the Bruins did what they needed to do and that was win one in Tampa.

And penalties are killing the Sharks again.

Did Vancouver really have three 5 on 3's?

Five-hole pass.

What a wacky way to end the series.

Good job Canucks. Onto the next round...

Suck it, Sharks.

And of course it comes down to a Game 7. This has been a great series. And the odd thing is, both teams could've won in five games. I guess that happens in every close series though.

And good timing on my part. I'm leaving on vacation tomorrow (that's been planned for months) so I'm not sure how much of the game I'm going to see. Hopefully the Justin.tv app will come through for me. It better for $4.99.

I'm gonna root for the Canucks. I don't care much for hockey but I'm tired of US team domination of it.

Go Steve Yzerman!

Boston just dominated that game. Roloson was the only reason Tampa was in it.

Bruins/Canucks should be good.

Also, no penalties all game. When was the last time that happened?

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I'm game if he is.

21 years ago according to CBC.

Also, GO CANUCKS.

Canucks > Bruins in 6. (or 4, 5...I can't take 7).

I'm in for the bet, although I do believe I should point out that it'd be a bet between a true Bruins fan and a "backup" Canucks fan.

Hey, you can always do it with Bluebomb instead...

Nah, I like our matchup. I consider us to be rivals of sorts.

Interesting (for everyone except jmart) Boston facts:

-Of the five Stanley Cup wins, only one was against a Canadian team (Toronto)

-In the last fifty years, Boston has lost in the Stanley Cup Final five times... four of those times against a Canadian team

-Before 1960, Boston lost in the Stanley Cup final seven times... six of those times against a Canadian team

-Overall, in 12 Stanley Cup Final defeats, 10 out of 12 were to a Canadian team... they are 1-10 against a Canadian team

And they have never played Vancouver in the Stanley Cup final, but I know everyone knew that.

Also, if any of my facts or math are wrong, go fuck yourself.

Congrats Winnipeg!

Now I just need Detroit to move to the East. Then the DOMINATION will begin!

That was a fun game, with some great goaltending.

I hope it wasn't offside. I mind losing a game that was that close (and looking at it objectively, a great game) but I'd mind losing even more if we lost that kind of game thanks to a blown non-call. I thought it was offsides and I thought NBC did a shit job of explaining why it was or wasn't, but it was close.

As for the real reason they lost, they should just scramble the lines on the power play at this point because even though it looked good, it's still not producing anything and it cost them another game.

To me, whether or not it was off-side doesn't matter. Goalie made a bad play, after playing a good game. He came out too far. Now hopefully Bruins can find a way to score, to win some games.
