Series Thread: Second Round: Boston Bruins vs Columbus Blue Jackets

[gob]

The late surge makes me feel slightly better, but I always thought the winner of this game would win game 6.

Not very confident

Welcome to me after game 3.

I was talking to a friend, and fellow Bruins fan, father, Bruins fan, on Wednesday night and we both agreed that it was over.

Oh have the past 2 games changed our mind

Boston going to win next game. This series is over. BJs know they are going to lose. Its why they tried so hard.

This the NHL playoffs, anything can happen. That's why 7 of the 9 teams to have 100 points this season are out of the playoffs already, including both conference winners. I won't disrespect a good, hard working team like the Jackets by counting them out in a home must win game. I want the Bruins to win, I hope the Bruins win, but I'm not guaranteeing anything and anyone who does put your money where your mouth is.

Well, poop.

It ain’t over til it’s over.

CBJ swept the presidents trophy winners. Bruins need to go 100% tomorrow or else we’re going to a game 7.

I would be shocked if it wasn't a game 7. These two teams are pretty dead even, only effort sometimes is a difference.

And it will probably go to OT.

Like the article I posted in the NHL board. Tampa peaked to early and Stamkos/ Vasiliskey let them down

Yep. Coasting into the play-offs often makes it hard to flip a switch. And when a hungry, hard hat type of team is there, it isn't a surprise to see the upset. And like you say, the star players have to be counted on to overcome that and the Bolts didn't get that.
The Bruins are sitting in a good spot right now with all those upsets. I like their chances but they need to bring their A game and try to end this. Can't go 7 games again. Too much attrition in the playoffs. Canes are sitting rested and ready.

Proud of my town

13500 to sit and watch a game on the jumbotron. During OSU football season we can struggle to get that many to watch an actual game.

Let's hope this enthusiasm carries over to next season.

Wish I could have gone but yesterday was a run around day for me. Kid 2 had an Ultimate Frisbee tourney, we went car shopping and my Pond Hockey team had a game. Didn't get home until halfway through the game. At least I got to see the good part.

All season people griped about Riley Nash, but it is painfully obvious how much he is missed. And we need Nutivaara back (Fuck Kucherov). Gavrikov looked promising, but he really fucked up on a goal against. Harrington has been playing well above his head for a while. I feel slightly panicked when he is out there.

There's a rumor that Bemstrom may be on the way over. If we somehow manage to get through, he might be ready for the next round.

Feels like this series should go 7. No matter what it's been the funnest season as a Jackets fan and I couldn't be more proud of the way Bob has carried himself this playoffs.

It'd be awesome for the offense to show up in period 1

Was out of town Saturday (was only able to watch a small portion on of the game on my cousin's phone). I saw some other people streaming a game, asked them what they had on, and it was the Walleye's game, haha.

It's cool that many showed up for it. I wasn't sure what type of turnout they'd get. On the radio that put the over/under at 10k, I think. I would have went to a bar to watch anyway... Better logistics, and cheaper beer.

Resale market says around $450 for tickets in the first 8 rows behind the benches

That is pretty cheap.

$350 on the glass by the penalty box. Wow.

Those young ladies trying to create a buzz to jump start their careers don't have that much money to spend on tickets, Dave.

Honestly, very odd... You can buy tickets for less than face value right now. I bought tickets, presale at $95 for the upper bowl Game 3, and there are tickets for sale at $90 right now.
