2010 NHL Playoffs

[TheBeerPatriot]

As a Boston Bruins fan, I feel compelled to start this thread.  It's nice to see four of the Original Six in this year's playoffs, with 3 of them already advancing to the second round (and possibly a 4th if Montreal wins Game 7 tonight).

 

So who's your team? And why do you think they'll win (or lose)?

I guess I'll go with my birth town team... the bruins... that is about as much of a reason I can give with hockey.

Bruins vs. Flyers, Mr. Soy Boyo.  We'll bring it starting Saturday.  LET'S GO BRUINS!!

Wow Bruins really blew it.

They sure did, I'm totally disgusted by them.  They had a perfect opportunity to get to the conference finals for the first time since '92, but their offense and energy went dormant.

 

I do give credit to the Flyers though.  Considering they had their backup take over in Game 5, and still win the series being down 0-3 is a credit to them.  They withstood the early lead in Game 7, and stormed back methodically to take it.  You could tell from watching the game for the last 2 1/2 periods that the Flyers were skating hard and winning pretty much all of the loose pucks.

 

I still love playoff hockey, but I'm done with the Bruins until they can prove they can go deep in the playoffs for a change.  No way they should have blown that series.
