There Ya’ go, now I see why the games are so different in Boston, the ice is broken up. You can see the puck bouncing all over the place.

The Bruins are not used to playing on good ice.

Like we gotta' stop the Canucks from acting like hosers eh.
"Ya' like way ta go eh."

It does not help that the Canucks, are playing like soccer players.
I always say, "You can't win a hockey fight by hoping for a penalty."

While this series is stressing out everyone in this part of the country, it's great for the game of hockey for this to go to a seventh game.

The Nucks better come out playing like crazed wildmen to pull it off Wednesday.

I'm not much of a hockey fan, but I like to see any Championship Series go the distance.
Good, close, well-played games and a full series give the fans their money's worth, and even the best players have to earn their pay.

Not to be confused with a 3 or 4-game sweep.

By which time each team will be down to half the players because of misconduct penalties.

I have seen cup games go to overtime where the players were dead on their feet, but surprisingly few penalties. No one wants to be short-handed in overtime.
The players on the Canucks have to learn that referees don't help you win games, and that they are playing hockey not soccer.

The Coach (Don Cherry) says Vancouver will win to-morrow.
He has been calling them right all along, so far.

At least it isn't Los Angeles, you won't have broken storefronts and arson.

In 1994 after Vancouver lost to New York there were riots downtown. We take our hockey seriously, apparently. (Well, we take our getting drunk and stupid seriously.)
