But what’s wrong with Maxim Lapierre? Please elaborate.
Dude…honestly? He’s a modern day Kenny Linseman. He’s the definition of a coward, and epitomizes the entire Canadiens club. Remember 4 years ago, when admittedly the Bruins blew a 3-1 series lead, with Ribeiro flopping around like he got hit by Foreman and Kovalev pulling the stunt I mentioned above…that’s what Maxim Lapierre represents.[/quote]
Kovalev was slashed pretty good if you watch the replay, his reaction not so top notch. If Kovalev hadn’t taken the famous dive years earlier, nobody would accuse him of faking from the class.
How dare you accuse Ribeiro of diving, the replay clearly showed a strong gust of wind blindsiding his as the Bruins player make a cut no less than 2 feet from him…OK it was a dive, but it was an Oscar winner!

Well they quickly got rid of Ribeiro…
And this year Kovalev has re-created himself and has become a true team leader.
Oh yeah, Habs in 5 (Boston will win game 3 in OT even though they don’t deserve it)!

I haven’t had much time to be here since yesterday, but the Wings are sitting on a one goal lead late in the third. Ya know I like Crosby, but the hype has turned me off and I find myself cheering for whoever they’re playing. I can’t explain it, but I also found myself rooting for Calgary last night too, despite the debacle we had with them last year. Maybe it’s because they aren’t given a prayer by anybody of getting past San Jose.

Well, not the start I was hoping for, apparently there were some nerves among the Bruins at the get go which the Kostytsin boys were able to capitalize on. Once things got settled down though I thought the Bruins played an ok game. They weren’t obviously outclassed or outplayed as a lot of people thought they would be. They just made some mistakes and the canadiens made them pay the price for it.
I was surprised, Montreal was more physical than I’ve seen them play all season, whereas Boston wasn’t. Boston’s penalty killing was better than expected, although the refereeing was a bit inconsistent (going both ways). Price and Thomas both made some fantastic saves and all 5 goals were on shots the goalies had no chance at saving.
So overall, not the start I was hoping for, but I think it showed Boston definitely has the skill and speed (Phil Kessel really turned on the jets a couple times, man he can move) to compete with the canadiens if they just keep their heads in the game, play hard and physical, and stop making stupid mistakes.
I only got to watch a little bit of the dallas anaheim game, pretty exciting from what I saw. Turco made a couple of great saves, selanne was getting a little scrappy, I can see that being a great series.

You know what sucks? I couldn’t even watch the game. Here in Florida, people don’t give a shit about hockey, and they sure as hell don’t give a shit about Canadiens hockey. Plus, Florida is New York 2, so Boston can go fuck themselves for all we care ; )
Hopefully I’ll catch some of the games if they end up making it to the Conference Finals. Until then, ESPN.com gets auto-refreshed every 30 seconds.
