^^ I can't imagine trying to trade tix to tonight's game for either of those events...tonight would be soo much better. Unless of course they're just extras and you're still going tonight.

5/12/2009 8:28:03 AM


I AM already going and these are 2 extra but the GF wants to get her money back on these. We bought them the day they went on sell because I KNEW we'd go to game 6, got the cheapest ones which are 50 plus the 9.80 ticketmaster fee, so we are selling them for face value at 60 each or 120 for the pair. They are side by side which is a plus since the college ones aren't anymore. I would recommend for anyone who has the money to go to a game if we make it to next round or that round after that when tickets go on sale go ahead and buy game 6 tickets. They almost always go that long for one thing and for two if they don"t you get your money back. Like I said we will take a trade also with CC 600 tickets or 4 george strait tickets so work your magic people!

is it 7:00 yet? the forslund before the faceoff got me pumped up some more.

hopefully the canes can come out flying so the bruins don't start with any momentum. the b's will probably try to assert themselves physically, but hopefully you lucky fans at the RBC center will fire up the canes so they can beat them to the punch (maybe pun intended).

and the bruins better not try any cheap shit tonight, because if they do, there will be blood:


oh, and the pic works for page 14/3*6=28

CANES!

^^^ Thanks! Has that been up there all day? I swear me and a coworker looked this morning on there and did not see it.

man, all these bruins fans on the N&O blogs are superentertaining.

5/12/2009 2:53:00 PM

Grapes talks about the Walker/Ward incident at 5:02

5/12/2009 2:54:56 PM

C'mon Aaron Ward... I like you a lot man, but you sound whiney as hell saying stuff like this. Just drop it and get over it already.

"“Out of convenience, (Carolina) went to another story and I obviously feel it’s a convenient story that the NHL accepted. And I think if you as the media accept that, you’re a bunch of sheep. It’s a convenient excuse and in the moment it allows people to get off scott-free and not have to deal with it. “It’s a joke. It’s honestly a joke.”"

Quote :

"Asked directly about the ruling, Ward said, “I don’t feel like getting a bigger fine than Scott Walker did for voicing my personal opinion. They showed me based on their decision that I don’t matter, so to voice my opinion now isn’t worth it.”"

Quote :

"Ward was also upset with comments from Carolina general manager Jim Rutherford – Ward’s former boss -- that it was the Bruins [team stats] who’d been taking liberties with his players and that the ’Canes simply reached a point where they could take no more. “I know Jimmy’s a pretty staunch Republican but I didn’t know he brought Karl Rove in here to spin it for him,” said Ward."

WHAMMY!!! love it

5/12/2009 3:15:23 PM

think it was an accident Ward was wearing a McGregor Draft House hat during his interview? Too late to save face now

5/12/2009 3:19:47 PM

Forget the punch on Ward.

Forget the "slash" on Chara.

Forget about getting shut out.

Forget what's being said in the media.

They've got to come ready to play tonight. Plain and simple.

Get ahead early, and I think the Bruins will get frustrated and off of their game. I want this over with tonight. I don't want to go back to Boston for game 7.

5/12/2009 3:27:50 PM

^ true enough. We've proven we can win on the road in game 7 already this year, but I'd rather go ahead and seal it up at the RBC tonight.

3:30 1 hour 30 minutes left at the office.

THEN IT BEGINS

5/12/2009 3:32:05 PM

I'm off

5/12/2009 3:43:08 PM

going to my first canes game tonight!

not really sure what to expect, but i'll be at the very top somewhere.

5/12/2009 3:51:21 PM

my first time was Game 5 of the NJ series in 06. clinched the second round at home.

hope the same thing happens for you.

5/12/2009 3:54:49 PM

I must say I feel like tonight is a must win. This feels a lot different than the Jersey series in which we gained a lot of momentum from late game heroics and winning game 6. Also the Devil fans were absolutely terrible and that place wasnt very intimidating to play in. If we lose tonight though we have dropped 2 in a row and the last game was laughable at best with how we played. We already have sideshow shenanigans with the Walker/Ward thing and we have some of the best fans in hockey. Should we lose tonight and have to go back to Boston I think they will end up taking the series as they will have all the momentum, the home crowd, and lets face it if they play to their ability are just better than us as a team. So that being said I really want to see us put up the first goal tonight so we can get relaxed and play our game and take care of business and pretend like the egg we layed Sunday night was just so we could win this bitch at home.

5/12/2009 4:00:54 PM

I have a softball game at 7
Then 40 min drive to house
Hopefully I will catch the 2nd period on the radio and the 3rd period on TV
I'm stoked!

5/12/2009 4:11:13 PM

lets go canes! would be awesome if we won tonight and I snap the winning goal.

5/12/2009 4:12:15 PM

The girl I was going to tutor tonight canceled, so I can watch the game! Yay.

5/12/2009 4:31:05 PM

She probably wanted to watch the game too.

5/12/2009 5:04:53 PM

PTI picks against the canes (sort of)

lower expectations ftw

5/12/2009 5:55:28 PM

Wilbon always picks the wrong team so since he picked the Bruins (kind of), we should win (kind of).

5/12/2009 6:02:17 PM

ah, PTI

two men who know tons about hockey

5/12/2009 6:03:53 PM

yea they pretty much said that

i just want to hear as few people pick the canes as possible

5/12/2009 6:08:57 PM

Anyone got a feed for the game?

5/12/2009 6:13:37 PM

I need a feed, stat.

I'm at my fiancee's house and she doesn't have cable.

I wish I had the FS feed. Wouldn't mind hearing Forslund and Tripp

5/12/2009 7:09:53 PM

how the fuck do you not call that a penalty

5/12/2009 7:13:36 PM

already? shit.

5/12/2009 7:13:50 PM

jesus.

5/12/2009 7:15:43 PM

FS announcers say no goal but i won't get my hopes up

Yep, goal counts. But if he hadn't been sliding in the first place I think Ward gets the save.

Fucked by the refs on goals twice now in this series, FUCK YOU!

5/12/2009 7:16:47 PM

anyone doing an online feed for the game i am up in the mountains and dont have VS this is bull shit

5/12/2009 7:17:18 PM

Babchuk's fault. You just can't crash into your own goalie like that. It's not like he was pushed into him or anything. He just didn't play that well at all.
