I put in a request a long time ago as it's an available option with vBulletin software, but to date, no dice on bringing spoiler tags to the Hoop. Too bad because it is a neat feature for hiding texts as well as images that are large in size.

Lighten up, Francis




Gee, and all this time I was led to believe the people of Boston were tough. Boston Tough. No, that's not it. Boston Intestinal Fortitude. Boston...

It's on the tip of my tongue. It'll come to me.

Great job staying classy :clap: Enjoy the game threads everyone. I'm not going to be part of this shit.

C'mon guys, cut it out. Its only cool when Bruins fans piss all over other threads.

A few things I believe to be true, being honest so I wont really argue the points.

I think the Bruins will have a relatively easy time with the Habs. I'd be surprised to see a game 6. I do think they embellish and dive just about as much as the Habs. I don't see how any Bruins fan complains about the crowds in Montreal. The Bruins fans are just as loud, cheer for calls, and bemoan calls just as much as Montreal crowds. They don't often sing though.

Habs had 140 PP chances this year versus Boston's 112 which BTW was dead last in the league. The habs was at #16 and Bruins at #30. I do not see anything there that equals out. That being said I am not going to discuss calls once the games start. As I said I may post something about a particular call but I will not engage in debates regarding diving.

2013-2014 - Regular Season - All Skaters - Power Play - Home Power Play Opportunities - NHL.com - Stats

I also will add that the Habs are a team built for speed and that certainly would create problems for any/all teams. If someone is faster you have to throw that hook out there to slow em down which probably is the end result in difference between the 2 teams.

To me the play of Price is gonna make or break the Habs. If he gets hot the Bruins will get frustrated. If it is a special teams war and the Bruins lose in that battle the Habs will have the advantage. Overall I expect a very hard fought series. I wont predict who and in how many games but it wont be easy for either team.

I thought I read that Seidenberg may be cleared for contact soon as well.

He would be a big addition - Hopefully Chris Kelly can return shortly as well.

No way Siedenberg plays this playoffs. Chris Kelly?? back spasms? he hasn't played in 3 weeks...wtf?
