YTD 34-24-3 +24.09 Units

Bruins - ML will be the play when the number is released along with a small on the under.
The Bruins have the Hawks playing the same way the Pens did last round......East/West......Hawks cant establish a forecheck at all.....and if they don't get going North/South, this series will be over in 5 or 6 at the most. I will play the hot home team versus an average road team as the Hawks are a totally different team at home versus their play on the road.

if chicago can't score first and force the Bruins to get out of the defensive mode, they will end up just like Pitt, frustrated.

They'll need to pinch and take chances, and come out flying, but this can lead to odd man rushes, and then who knows.

Also why were kane and toews split up

This

If Chicago can get the lead or play even, they have a chance. If they fall behind they are royally screwed.

Every time I watch Rask play, I'm reminded of how the Bruins fleeced the Leafs by trading Andrew Raycroft for him :mj07:

They want to play fast. Although not as "finesse" as the Penguins, they're pretty close. They have some physical guys, but so did Pitt. This is why I don't like the "finesse" term. That said, Lucic is handing out checks like the first of the month, and players on Chicago have already taken notice, and either dumped the puck, or changed direction. This plays right into the Bruins strength. They'll muck and grind you to a nub, and create opportunities.

Patrice Bergeron is an absolute beauty wheels.

Yeah, Toronto hasn't done so well dealing with Boston.

They absolutely need to get this to be a track meet if they have any chance. The Bruins are grinding down the Hawks.......the Hawks better get going North/South in a hurry!

Kane and Sharp have been absolute no shows this Final........Kane keeps playing perimeter hockey and needs to go in the dirty places to make things happen.

Its funny because many Leafs fans refuse to accept the fact that if not for their ridiculous moves with the Bruins, the Bruins wouldn't have a Cup from a few years ago nor would they be in the Final right now. Rask, Seguin, Hamilton......unreal!

Outside of Rask......Bergeron has been as important as Chara in a lot of ways this playoff run!
