And Bozak won more than any Bruin, "killed" is extreme.
Bozak won't be taking 100% of the draws. To call it baseless, is ignorant at best. We will be starting a lot of plays without the puck.

That said, we were 15th in the NHL in faceoffs, so this won't be anything unexpected.

Does anyone here even hate the b's? Marchand maybe..but the guys got a ton of skill. I love the way they play.

I hate their fans a bit, maybe. But you are right, I enjoy and appreciate good hockey, love the way they play.

1)? 2-0 win over new jersey says hi, as well as a couple other ones

did you watch any leafs game near the end of the year where we were outshot badly, reimer essentially won those games for us, no doubt

A broken clock is right twice a day.

Being outshot in of itself doesn't mean **** when the vast majority of the shots (~90%) come from the perimeter (ie: vs Jersey, Sens, etc).

On a positive note, Kessel is a PPG when he plays in playoffs, especially in those games involving Bruins. :naughty:

Weird, B's fans say leafs are going to win. Leafs fans say Bruins are going to win. Hopefully for us they stay in a slump and we can steal one of the first two games before coming back to Toronto.

****'em. I love that they hate us that much.

We need to be finishing checks, and pushing the pace of games, not sitting back and waiting for them to make mistakes. We have the speed with Kessel, Bozak, Grabo, Lupul, Mac, to put the Bruins and their hardly mobile defense on their heels.

Forechecking is going to be so important. Bet your bottom dollar that Komarov, Kulemin, and McClement will play HUGE roles in any win in this series. We'll have to take it to them, so they can't play it their way.

We can beat Boston. I aint Scurrrrd.

BTFB, Ladies and Gents!

Canucks fans still have difficulty with the concept that nobody but them ever wants to see their team win. Normally when everybody hates you it's a cool thing but they get upset.

Maybe if their team weren't such divers.... I mean, they make Karlsson and the Habs look like saints.

I think the Leafs will relish the underdog role. You really have to think that all the pressure will be on Boston to deliver at home. If they can't do that, the Leafs have a chance to take the series.

My point is we aren't dreadful on the draw, Grabo can hold his own as well, to say we are getting killed already, I'm not sure.
