Brass Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I wonder what Julien thinks about his players doing the finger taunt after saying that he wouldn't allow that in his organization. Seems a wee bit hypocritical. Oh, stop it. It's called the heat of the moment. The "pro-Boston media" isn't out there. The coach isn't out there. It's easy for a coach to say "we're not going to do that" and then a player doing it to get under the skin of the opposition. Have the Canucks stop embellishing hits and I'm sure the Bruins won't mock the finger bite anymore.What a game, though. Everybody showed up to play from Milan Lucic to Daniel Paille. What a GREAT goal by Brad Marchand, too! For a smaller guy, he's absolutely nasty at getting body position on a defenseman and then he absolutely tooled Roberto Luongo. Hopefully the Bruins can keep this up in game four. On 4/10/2017 at 3:05 PM, Rollins Man said: what the hell is ccslc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly, I never watched that many games but for some reason I liked them. Not anymore, people complain about Boston fans being outlandish and ignorant, you Canucks fans are just as bad (not all of you). I can't stand this team, at all. Admiral's Pierzynski reference was spot on, they just get under your skin; nothing better then seeing them flat out quit in the third period. I'm mildly surprised Sedin went a whole ten minutes in the box without flopping once, good on him.As for the game, I'd have to say this is the most complete performance I've seen the Bruins put together since Claude has been here. Am I wrong, Brass? The passing was as crisp as I've ever seen it under this regime, great decisions, shut down defense, they gained the zone without their dump and chase/turnover scheme; I almost forgot I was watching the Bruins. If history means anything, the Bruins will come out Wednesday and play like total garbage, but let's hope I'm wrong and they finally carry some momentum from game to game.

If history means anything, the Bruins will come out Wednesday and play like total garbage, but let's hope I'm wrong and they finally carry some momentum from game to game.I'd say you're correct. Probably better than their 7-0 thrashing of Montreal a few months ago. Not doing the dump and chase system worked wonders, as they just don't have the legs for it, especially against Vancouver. I thought they were going to go with that after they scored the first goal and hope they could shut the 'Nucks down defensively, but they didn't. They did what any team with a lead is supposed to do in the Finals - go for the jugular. If this game rocks Luongo, the Bruins have a great chance of winning the Stanley Cup, hopefully in game six. Thomas is on a roll and in the playoffs, having a hot goalie is a priority. Was I the only one surprised by the Ryder/Campbell/Paille powerplay, either? Despite Ryder putting the puck in the back of the net, Campbell set a really good screen in front of Luongo to allow it.Horton is done for the Finals with a concussion.Then have Rome out of the rest of the series, too. Have the punishment match the crime. On 4/10/2017 at 3:05 PM, Rollins Man said: what the hell is ccslc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slapshot Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I think the point Lee was trying to make is that Rome is not exactly Vancouver's top defenseman, and can be easily replaced in the lineup, so it's not like the fans will be rioting in the streets over him not being on the ice.Right?

Lee. Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 More or less. I'm also sick of the "tit for tat" suspension angle that people like to go for, and if I really need to explain that one to everyone, I'd be more than happy to.Last night was the result of a pumped Bruins squad, spurred on by an injury from an unfortunate hit, and Vancouver being down a defenseman (which was a questionable decision, but Bruins fans will be unable to see the logic in that theory). The entire Canucks squad gave up in the third, Luongo was left out to dry, and this happened. I expect a much different, and much more violent, game 4.edit 1: Recchi and Lucic shoving their fingers towards the Canucks were "heat of the moment?" Bitch please. I'm not defending Burrows, but I don't care who it is, if someone shoves their fingers in my mouth during a game, :censored:ing right I'm chomping down.

slapshot Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Like I mentioned before, I only saw 2 Canucks hustle when they were on the ice, Bieksa and Malhotra.Hard to play against a charged up team when 21 other guys give up early.

slapshot Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I thought I mentioned those two specifically. Oh well.It felt nice to have the Bruins fight back instead of playing a passive game. Also easier when you have two obvious villians to hate.And I only had twitter access on my cell phone the first two games, it's harder to update that often.Brass-like? That hurts.

Sodboy13 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 So, as I try to analyze the suspension, I should break it down as 1 game for the actual hit, 2 games for the end result, plus another game for "oops we goofed and let things get to this point whoopsie-daisy", right?

Still MIGHTY Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 The Canucks are the small, yappie, loudmouth bully that talks s**t and pokes fun and jabs at the bigger kids because they know the bigger kids won't fight back...Funny you say that. My impression of Corey Perry has always been the kid that stands behind the bully and says "yeah!" every now and then, which given the makeup of recent Ducks rosters, is actually kind of what Corey Perry is.Well that was unprovoked. Corey does poke the bull (See: falls on goaltender) and usually doesn't actually end up in the altercation and pisses people off, but then he'll turn the other way and score 50 goals and, well, piss people off... So whatever. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brass Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Well, Brass-like proportions are always better than Lee-like proportions.If people didn't have a problem with Burrows biting Bergeron's finger, then isn't a bit hypocritical for them to condemn the taunting? Yes, it is. It's another case of "it's ok for me or my team to do it, but it's not ok for you or your team to do it." On 4/10/2017 at 3:05 PM, Rollins Man said: what the hell is ccslc?
