Post-Game Talk: ECSF/ADF - GAME 6 - GOODBYE COLUMBUS - BRUINS WIN SERIES 4-2

[Lady Rhian]

Colorado and SJ play Wednesday.

You're right. They still don't have the game yet on the Bruins site, either, but it probably will be on Thursday. I'll edit my posts so it doesn't confuse anyone.

I would get no pleasure from seeing a player I don't like get injured, especially a video like this.

He is hard to listen to

TV scheduling is my guess, B`s still get 2 days off between games, the boys will be fine

I think they probably would have started friday, but with the Celtics playing, they went the day before. I saw something that said Game 2 is Sunday at 3pm?

Carolina Hurricanes to face Boston Bruins in Eastern Conference Final

It does say this isn't confirmed.

It has to be great living in the city of Boston and being a sports fan since early 2000. You guys win everything. Congrats, its a great city. I drive down to Boston from Nova Scotia (11-12 hr drive) to attend various sporting events. We usually go down in November. 4 of us go (2 Oiler fans, 2 Bruin fans). I had a good chat with some local sports fans there at a bar. They went to all the parades and they said the Bruins one was probably one of the biggest. I figured the Red Sox. Im just curious, what is the pecking order of the teams? I understand it depends upon who is winning but as I said, you guys win everything. Am I wrong to say the following:

1 - Boston Red Sox
2 - Pats
3,4 - Bruins, Celtics (depends who is winning?)

Around my area, there is a very heavy influence of Boston teams for the favorites. We also have too many Leafs and Habs fans. They drive ya nuts. I'm an Oiler, Green Bay Packer, and Montreal Expos fan. As you can see, I have been losing. Now I have to join a new ball team. Hello Red Sox!

You got the order correct, except swap Patriots and Red Sox. The reason the Bruins parade was the biggest is:

1 - It was on a Saturday
2 - It was 85 degrees and sunny
3 - It was the team that had been waiting the longest for a championship

In that order.

Right. I can't stand a few of the announcers either. But that doesn't mean I get some satisfaction in watching a video of them being badly injured.

 

[The National]

I go to Italy next week I need to start strategizing how I’m going to watch the games.

NBCSN app hopefully.

 

[Lady Rhian]

True, for some reason I thought they`d start on Saturday

I guess we're wrong. I read somewhere that TD Garden has something going on on Friday night of course.

Good point. I didn't get to see the old Gardens but I loved watching the games on TV. It seemed like the fans were right on the ice. It is good to see you guys stuck with the Bruins. Some fan bases quit and come back when they win (Carolina)

Well its just convo with another fan. Don't take it so hard

Same here. We were ticked off when others gleefully posted videos of Bergie and Savvy knocked out, this is just as bad, as well as the blood. Ugh.

Pet peeve coming!

It's "Garden", not Gardens. The Gardens in Boston are where the duck statues reside. The "Gardens" in hockey is where the Leafs used to suck, before they continued to suck in their new place.

Atsa nice!!

Leaving for London on June 7th then on to Berlin on the 11th for another 8 days.

Need this wrapped up by then.

The Bruins have out rated the Celtics and have been voted ahead of them in the Boston survey I think in 9 of the last 10 years

2018 the Celtics passed them but this year Bruins over took them for 3rd in the city again

Game 7 Bruins finals 2011 did a 43.4
Game 7 Celtics Finals 2010 did a 33.3

The Bruins have always been the 3rd team in town and it’s not even close really

better not be Thursday or Mother's Day.

ugg, and another poster showed a matinee game, what a joke, playoff hockey in the afternoon

 

[RustyBruins72]

A public convo about a player severely injured and you taking pleasure in it because you can't stand listening to him.

Maybe that's a better "convo" done privately.

I think the parade for the 2004 Sox was the largest by a wide margin (86 years will do that to you). I never know how much stock to put into crowd estimates, but i've heard the Bruins parade in 2011 was over a million people.

Hi Lou. How's your day.

I think you'll be going 0/2. Sorry.

The Celtics bandwagon is a little bigger when in full swing since basketball is a far more accessible sport than hockey but the Bruins are #3 historically/overall and have a far bigger fanbase when both are bad/mediocre.

Was better before I saw the proposed schedule haha

The Ratings don’t show that though in the post season

The Bruins have our rated the Celtics when head to head in playoffs nearly every year except 2018

And the Bruins Finals ratings Crushed the Celtics Finals Ratings

Technically, it's not. It's Thursday AND Mother's Day!

I worry about the NBCSN app reading my location and not allowing me to view it for being out of country.

If I can’t turn off the location on wifi I’ll have to try a VPN.

WHATEVER IT TAKES!

 

[Caper Bruins fan]

I hope that Sunday afternoon is incorrect. I am working 3-11 and it would be impossible to watch but more importantly impossible avoiding knowing the outcome of the game before I could watch later .

Matinee games suck, in my opinion. I hate them during the playoffs.
