That's just great.

A guy who shouldn't have been allowed on the ice scores two goals.

Don't get me wrong. Vancouver is the superior team. I expected them to win the series from the start.

But, it's a damn shame to see something like this. I guess the NHL better write in the rule books that biting another player is fair play. Maybe I wouldn't be so pissed.

+ 1. Ridiculous that they said that they did not have enough evidence considering that the frickin replay clearly showed him biting.

Never watch hockey, but being a Bostonian, have hopped on the Bruins bandwagon (do they sell pink B's t-shirts?). The fighting and physical nature of hockey turns me off. So..when all this fighting and tossing players ass over teakettle is perfectly fine...a little bitty bite is enough to suspend a guy? I guess I'm just not 'up' on the rules of where or how blood can be drawn.

This is rich. Boston fans complaining about a player on another team not being suspended.

:lol::lol: I guess the same could be said of Flyer fans. Haven't thought the Bruins were too bad since the early 70's. This coming from a Devil fan, the guy should be suspended.

In full disclosure I only began really following them this season. I watch a lot of college hockey (my alma mater is Middlebury) but over the Easter weekend I sat down with my Father in Law and we watched the Bruins on TV. The action on TV works for me. I was bummed that my satellite did not cover the game last night :blink: so I listened on the radio.

That game was great, way to go pouring the goals in at the end.

Am really bummed that Horton is out for the series due to that BS hit.

Lucic holding his fingers in front of Burrows' mouth was a nice touch as well!

Tie it up tomorrow Bruins!

Big game tonight - the Bs need to keep the momentum going. Throw a bunch of shots at Luongo to stay in his head....

Welcome to the NHL. We need more fans though I like college hockey too. Was VS blacked out in your area? You live in an interesting area as you border on Canadian territory but I would think you could get a broadcast out of Montreal up there.

We're anteanne'd by choice, and it looked like all games would be on NBC, but the next 2 are on Versus. :angry: This is the only major sport finals on pay TV.

+ 1. I don't get Versus or CBC on my Satellite Dish. I had just assumed that I would be able to see it on NBC as I had on the weekend. But instead NBC had their very lame Monday night primetime programming.

Little Timmy Thomas laying the smackdown on Henrik Sedin was AWESOME. Sedin must be a foot taller than him and Thomas basically said, "stay out of my goal crease...."

Truthfully, I'm surprised he could get away with a big hit like that, right in front of the goal. I've seen goalies shove guys out of the way or even crack them with their stick, but never flatten a guy straight up like that. I suppose it's just another check, but that one almost looks like it could have been called for interference or even roughing. Oh well, tough sh*t for Vancouver.

Bs tie up the series tonight.....another low-scoring game. Both goalies better bring their top game tonight......

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