Sedin had the puck when the check was initiated, and a goalie can check players. Therefore legal.

I like his quote when asked about it: "that's how I decided to stop the puck from going into my goal."

Luongo had a rough night tonight. Bruins completely dominated the game. They were beating the Canucks all over the ice. The Canucks may have had more shots but a lot were from a long way out.

Bruins continue to dominate with great goal tending and a physicality and aggressiveness that has the Canucks searching for answers .The whuppin has gotten into their heads and has affected their style of play .

Musta been a helluva "players only" mtg in the locker room after the game :D

I feel like I should change my vote. I think it's going to 7 games in Vancouver's favor.

Gotta hang in there. The Bs win back at home Monday to force Game 7. One of these 1-goal games has to go in the Bruins' favor.........don't give up yet.....

imo, for this series, the matchups have become so important. Thus, home team does have a significant advantage more than ever given they have the last line change. Yes, they can shift lines early but the Bs has made a living clogging up the neutral zone and have to be careful not to break down their defense during these shifts given the Canuk's has great team speed.

I dont usually watch a lot of hocky but Tim Thomas was on fire yesterday.

They seriously need to pull their shit together when they are on the road. I don't get how they can massively outscore at home but eek out losses on the road. That's my biggest concern in game 7.

Tim Thomas is clearly the best player in the Finals. The Sedin bros have disappeared.

Bruins totally dominated again last nite. They have to find a way to do that in Vancouver tomorrow. If they can score 2-3 goals, they will win.

So which is a bigger surprise? The Sox winning the Series twice, the Pats winning the Super Bowl 3 times, or the Bs potentially winning the Stanley Cup? I still think the Pats coming out of nowhere to beat the Rams in 2001 was the biggest surprise chamionship in Boston history, but if the Bs win the Cup it will be very sweet.....

GO BRUINS!!
