I do not care if the B's dress the second coming of Bobby Orr for game seven, it should have no bearing on the Habs. They either want it or they don't!It is about time that they come out of the shoot like raging bulls and put a stop to this debacle.
HOW ABOUT FOR ONE GAME WE PLAY 60 MINUTES THIS SERIES.
PLAY THE WAY THEY DID IN PERIOD 3 AGAINST NYR ON FEBRUARY 19 =D

1. February 19th, 2008, a day which will live in sublimity.
Man....
the worst part about this is that we KNOW the team can do it. They just need to execute!!
Yes, they are young and they're learning on the job. But that was what game 1-6 was for.
Class is done, time to win Game 7.
Fearless prediction: win or lose, I will have ripped at least 2 handfulls of hair right out of my head by the end of the game.
You're right - exam time now. Let's see what we've learned.
1. www.flickeringpictures.com - not a hockey site, but still kinda neat
2. Josh Gorges on Montreal's attack: "They're comin', they're comin' and they keep comin'. Just line after line, wave after wave..."
anyone else notice kessel's(i'm pretty sure it was kessel) injury right at the end of the game last night. It looked like a wrist or elbow injury, not that i like to see players injured but it could be good news for us.
I'm certain he is hurt but maybe some lod mouth in the Bruins hiearchy will blab it out ...

I think they said on the news that he would be in the lineup, although if he is maybe he'll be playing with an injury.
It's a useless move. I'm only going to take it as an advantage to us because they will have to sarcrafice a player for one that isn't really 100% and hasn't played since October.
Tommorow is going to be a real intense game so...
One hit and Bergeron might be out for long time..
I must admit, when I bought tickets for the fourth home game in desperation of not getting any tickets to the playoffs at all, I thought I was wasting my money. Guess I'm going to game 7, I really did not want to go, and really do not want to go... I am going to have a panic attack there if they lose...
My buddy is in the same boat, he bought game 7 tickets.
He then mentioned that he might have a heartattack on his way to the Bell Center, and really didn't want to go.
That prompted me to say well, you know, I'll buy them off of you...hell, I'll pay you double.
His reply, with a grin no less: "I may get a heartattack, but I'm crawling to that game if I have to. I'll be there when the Habs win the series."
Go Habs Go
lol thats exactly how i feel, and i wouldn't sell my tickets for a million dollars even if it meant extreme anxiety possibly leading to a heart attack or stroke lol.
go crazy for the team.
panic attack after the game, if required :)
actually, ill probably cry if they win or lose, it will be for different emotions though - loss will be because of anger, frustration, disappointment, etc. a win will make me cry because i will be relieved, happy, hopeful, etc.
hhaha i bet i wont be the only one though...
It doesn't matter if Bergeron is in or not, we have a team that (when it plays) can beat Boston no matter whom they have in the lineup.
It really doesn't matter who Boston dresses, it matter who shows up for the Habs. Why we are playing timid against this team I don't know, but for the love of god wake the hell up.
Don't care who they bring. Only care that the guys we bring play their collective hearts out.
GO HABS.
If the Bruins want to risk disrupting a formula that is obviously working by inserting Bergeron, a guy who has not seen action all year (let alone a game 7 in the playoffs), then let them.
RDS says he'll play if he's given the green light by the docs. That's a big if. And as far as I know, that's been the case all series, no?
If they didn't clear him in game 6, they wont clear him for game 7. It's a brain injury. It's not a leg.
bergeron only sees the doctor once a week.
he wasn't cleared for game 3 and they wouldn't revisit him until sunday/monday making him unavailable for the other 6 games. after his initial rejection last week, he hasn't seen the doctor again another poster figured he wouldn't be back until game 7 the earliest.
dead on. it's hype.
Word.
Ex nihilo nihil fit
Double ditto word!
Go Habs Go
wtv...we did what we had to...
they'll do what they have to...
in the end i just want to see the tower of power chara fall on his bum.
I'm not too phased about the prospect, and I don't expect the Habs would be either.
Label him with one hard hit, and you'll get the Bruins in a tizzy, and possibly off their game.
The Canadiens have to focus on their own squad, and getting back to a sound defensive game. The series would be over had they been able to properly defend the 3-2 lead yesterday.
It'll be a big psychological and emotional boost if he dresses . . . he won't light the place up performance wise after sitting most of the season, but we all know not to discount the mental side of hockey.
I don't see a raise there. You're gonna have to put in two of him just to keep playing with me.
Great...... (sarcasm)
