The_Admiral Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 I don't hate the Bruins as many do. Maaaaaan, that one stings. That's two historic chokejobs in the Bergeron era. Wow. You really get the highs and the lows with that team, huh. Quote ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramerica Industries Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 It's a small token of solace for me this weekend that the 2018-'19 Lightning no longer hold the record for most points to go one-and-done in the playoffs. It's an extra small token of solace that it is now the Boston Bruins who hold that record, and that record will probably never be broken.

Sport Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Nobody except like three of you freaks is thinking about how they’re a sunbelt team. The team with the most wins ever choked in the first round -I’m sorry, but that’s notable. Let me remind you the last time a team had an historic season they were a sunbelt team and they didn’t win a single playoff game. Stop making this non-thing into a thing. 6 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~Bear Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 I really thought Boston was going to make a deep run this year; they looked the part. Hats of to Florida, just goes to show how unpredictable the Stanley Cup playoffs are. Honestly the most entertaining playoff in sports. It's cool to see Toronto in the 2nd round too. Between either Florida or Toronto, we'll have a team in the ECF that hasn't been there in a long, long time, which is always fun to see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if the Bruins deserve to be more in the same tier with teams such as the Maple Leafs (this year not withstanding) and Wild and other poor playoff performers. They do have the one Cup in 2011 but it was their first since 1972 and they haven't done much playoff wise any other time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rangers have that one Cup from 1994, long enough ago that I was less than year old when they won it, and you still never hear the end of it, so they're absolutely in this equation as well, btw. I wrote elsewhere the other night that when the Wild got eliminated that them being eliminated in 6 games is the perfect embodiment of that entire franchise. They define the concept of being aggressively average in the regular season already; they make the playoffs more often than not, but they also never win their division, so they're never one of the top teams. Then they go into the playoffs, win a couple of games to show that they aren't bad enough to get humiliated, but also never good enough to be in position to win their series, either. Every Minnesota Wild season unfolds the same way. It's honestly impressive and a perfect reflection of Minnesota sports. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think @JerseyJimmy is wrong to make this political (not everything is ffs) but he is a pretty dedicated Isles fan so you can't blame him for being upset his team lost. 2 Quote PotD 26/2/12 1/7/15 2020 BASS Spin the Wheel, Make the Deal Regular Season Champion 2021 BASS NFL Pick'em Regular Season Champion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look man I'm a left leaning guy but that's got zero to do with it. I hate the Bruins and they got eliminated by a team I always assumed was a money laundering operation. It ain't that deep. 2 Quote PotD 26/2/12 1/7/15 2020 BASS Spin the Wheel, Make the Deal Regular Season Champion 2021 BASS NFL Pick'em Regular Season Champion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still remember 2003 when they scored one goal in four games and got swept. Man, hockey sucked then. It sucks now, too, but it sucked worse then.
