Re: Playoffs!!
Blackhawks fan here. Great series, guys. The Bruins play a style that is beloved in Chicago. Tough, gritty, hard nosed, and blue collar. We had some really hard fought games this series -- lead by the marathon 3 OT war in Game 1. Chara is a heck of a player.
It was interesting because you guys pounded Pittsburgh, who basically is a poor mans version of us. And beat down the Kings, who basically is a poor mans version of you guys. So it was only fitting that the two best teams would face off in the Finals.
Boston has had so much success (Patriots, Red Sox, Celtics, and Bruins) and we really haven't. So it's exceptionally sweet for us.

Exactly! I wouldn't be as pissed off if the story of this season wasn't how they blew third period leads every other game. How can anyone not be pissed off at that, especially when you do it in the finals on game 6.
On another note, Bergeron played with a broken rib and torn rib cartilage.

Just wanna echo these thoughts.
Specifically to: j_angel, Celtics_Champs and Geoffrey P... been fun talking puck with you guys. I'll be dropping by the offseason thread periodically.
