[KillerVee]

Wait, what? Are you talking to me?

I quoted you, didn't I?!

 

[KillerVee]

Oh, man. Yeah. Be thankful you never had to experience The Swamp, Cricket. Enough to drive you to violence. Those people are awful.

 

[Cricket]

Anyway. Hell of a game. Can't wait for the Friday. And I did fully expect to see tons of smack talk when I made my way over here. But I suppose that comment just didn't sit right with me.

And Vee if I came across as upset with you. I'm sorry. That was not my intention. And if I happened to piss anyone else off for whatever reason. I might be sorry to you too. It depends on the reason you got mad in the first place.

 

[IPostedWhat]

I slipped in all this whipped cream and must get my friend Sarah to help lick me clean. Boy you guys must hate me for being such a clumsy girl. Jinkies, it must be these darn ugly glasses why I can't see so well right now?

I was literally raped there.... by a turtle.

Nah, I'm cool. Go be happy and revel in your teams win! Some of us aren't so lucky anymore

 

[KillerVee]

I NEVER SAID THAT.

IPW is a trickster.

What if I got mad because of the situation in the Middle East?

 

[Cricket]

I'm guessing the response you got would be something like this: Please leave a message. Your complaint is important to us. Some fuck wad who acts like he actually gives a damn, when in reality all he wants to do is go hook up with his intern or secret gay lover, will get back to you never.

My wording could be off though.

 

[PhillyPhaithful48]

So Tampa won? I'm busy watching the Phillies in the 15th inning

 

[IPostedWhat]

[puckhead]

I knew that.
because your friend's name is Nikki.

 

[KillerVee]

I have a friend named Sarah too though! And Nikki just got engaged

 

[IPostedWhat]

See, that proves you said it. How lucky could I get to guess the name of the only other friend that you have?

Boston needs to work on their powerplay & penalty kill. If both don't improve it won't matter if they win Game 7, Vancouver will crush them.

I don't know how Vancouver can't look at this game tonight and not be thinking that the Cup is theirs whoever wins on Friday. Boston's special teams are just horrendous right now and even though Tampa Bay won, they played so frightened and lazy in their own end it's a miracle they hung on.

Looks like the SCF doesn't start until Wednesday now so it will give the winner of Game 7 some time to refocus themselves.

I agree. The one thing Boston has going for them in any series is Thomas, but he's been hot & cold in this series.

No matter who wins Game 7 their goalie will have to stand on his head against the Canucks. Right now I don't believe either of them are going to be able to do so on a nightly basis against the Canucks.

Kelly Hrudey made a good point I thought after the game. Vancouver's depth really stands out after watching these two teams play, because it always seems to be the same guys for the B's and Bolts.

Actually the Bolts have gotten a lot of production from their 2nd through 4th lines. They miss Bergenheim who's scored 9 goals in the playoffs. Teddy Purcell has 5 goals & 1 assist in the Bruins series alone. Downie has played well. He had a couple of assists tonight.

Bergeron has played well since coming back. Seguin had two good games. They're relying way too much on their 1st line though. I didn't agree with the decision to put Chara in front of the net duirng the powerplay tonight. He's got the hardest shot in the league. The Bruins are a big team. They can put Lucic or Horton in front of the net. Chara needs to shoot the puck.

Well I said it earlier, Boston was getting guys to the front of the net, but the problem was the Bolts were blocking the shots before they ever got to the net and had a chance to be dangerous.

Plus Kaberle's refusing to shoot is one of the big reason that PP can't click. Tampa know he isn't going to shoot it so they simply take away his passing options.
