Hoping someone out West can take it because Boston winning is going to set the sport back even further than it is. Their brand of hockey kills the game.
If by "don't poke the bear" he means "don't get your skate caught in a rut" then yes Edwards and milbury have to be the two dumbest media guys with these kind of comments. Difference is Edwards is a pretty smart guy, he apparently has some massive advanced stats database that he codes and manages himself.
lol I get not liking the Bruins but this feels silly. How is their brand of hockey any worse than Columbus or Arizona suffocating opposing teams and hoping it goes to OT
Their final against the Blues was boring and unwatchable hockey. Nobody outside the markets gave a shit about it.
I did not expect Washington to be down 0-3. Good thing they won two years ago because (potentially) losing in the first round two years in a row would probably have the fan base ready to tear down the whole damn franchise. I’m sure some probably still feel that way since two years ago doesn’t give you a Stanley Cup today, but it certainly eases the frustration a bit (but that window of “eh who cares we won”) probably runs out next year for most fans
As shitty as the Seguin trade was, it actually wouldn’t look all that bad had Boston held onto Reilly Smith, instead of trading him for Jimmy fucking Hayes
