Simple as this. Florida is the better team.Bruins area solid defensive team with very good goaltending. Their lack of skill at the center position and scoring in general is what did them in.

I had a feeling that whoever got the GWG no matter which team it would be a soft/weak goal. I'm just glad that it wasn't another controversial GI special or something like what happened in the Colorado/Dallas game. He gave up a bad rebound and was screened by Wotherspoon on that shot. No one to blame but our own guys for that. Can't be mad at him at all though with the playoffs he had.I get Swayman played well but that gwg was an awful one to give up. Im sure he wants that one back
No one in Toronto ever commented that either. Boston has officially received respect in the hand shake like.Because no one in Boston has ever commented on the fact that they got much respect in the handshake line - or, even worse, suggested that it was some sort of indication that it was any kind of progress.
I never realized the boys wrote a song about being Leaf fansFacts are facts
Also a fact - Bruins choked yet again but yeah 2011 Yay!
Do yourself a favor and stop claiming this fool, as your boy, lolGreat series. My boy Cashflow is a huge Panthers fan, he sent me this pic from his watch party

Your right, my mistake.... Boston got their NHL "Love-card" revoked that series too. That's two times in-a-row other franchise/player stories trumped Boston's. Wow, that must of made this past series -vs- Florida Thuchuk's even more weird. Especially after considering how Boston fan-base has been one of NHL's favorite child for years. That's the way it rolls sometimes: one might be on top now, but later on, one might find themselves on the bottom. Still, weird situation for those who are use to top all-the-time (AKA- Boston Bruins fans)You clearly didn’t want the 2019 Final if you think it’s weird for Boston to be on the other side of referring.
They didn’t choke. Team had no 1st and 2nd line centers. Most people didn’t even pick them to make the playoffs. Good season for them considering.Facts are facts

true, but he was roughly screened by his own Dman....and for once it wasn't McAvoyI get Swayman played well but that gwg was an awful one to give up. Im sure he wants that one back
Yes the leafs own that titleNo. No. No.
That is just not fair. Toronto started and earned the “handshake line respect” metric. Takes a special kind of team to fight for that award.
So while it’s very kind of you to try to honor us with that compliment we must respectfully decline. Say what you will about Boston but we don’t fight hard enough or care enough about respect in the line to be given that award.
Fair is fair. It’s Toronto’s title and we are just NOT worthy of same. Maybe one day.
Yep. Bruins over achieved. Good on them.They didn’t choke. Team had no 1st and 2nd line centers. Most people didn’t even pick them to make the playoffs. Good season for them considering.
Same here.Whew. Got florida in some pools. And I got NYR too so I got my east coast stacks find and dandy. My western players are shaky. McDavid and gang might blow it. But I think tons of people have Oilers guys so might not be that bad. Need Dallas to finish off Avs as I got Dallas guys too.
Since when is losing to a better team in 6 games choking? Have you seen the Roster the Bruins had? Floridas was MUCH better and absolutely no one had them the favourites.Facts are facts
Also a fact - Bruins choked yet again but yeah 2011 Yay!
probably a leaf fan who after the Jackets and Habs took them out in the first round and being losers of 5 straight game 7s ..... choking ? losing? same thing to a leaf fan.Since when is losing to a better team in 6 games choking? Have you seen the Roster the Bruins had? Floridas was MUCH better and absolutely no one had them the favourites.
Either you don’t know what the definition of choking is or you’re attempting a very sad troll attempt
no ragrets! Kno’what I’m sayyn?Great series. My boy Cashflow is a huge Panthers fan, he sent me this pic from his watch party

One pool I got approx 4 of each. Full rosters worth between Edm, Dallas, Flor, NYR. Pick any player you want. Pavelski and Hintz killing me.Same here.
I have 5 Panthers. 4 Stars. 2 Oilers.
I posted Boston just has to add a couple offensive forwards maybe a center to get past better teams. The goaltending just can't carry a team that long. Hard to add talent but Bruins may decline unless they add more offense.
Somple se thatThey didn’t choke. Team had no 1st and 2nd line centers. Most people didn’t even pick them to make the playoffs. Good season for them considering.
Hmm...Good point, when a team loses to another team higher in the standings or is simply an equal or better team, it's not coking. I think I agree with that.Since when is losing to a better team in 6 games choking? Have you seen the Roster the Bruins had? Floridas was MUCH better and absolutely no one had them the favourites.
