getting real sick of Pierre McGuire...

he has never bothered me before, but this series is driving me crazy. Every shift Jagr takes, at least 3 times McGuire says something to the effect of "Jagr is gassed, he needs to get off." Last night he said it a couple times during a Jagr shift, and then Jagr stayed on the ice for another whole shift and was the most productive player on the ice. In game one McGuire was going on about how Chara was playing too many minutes. Its fucking Chara, he plays 30 minutes a night.

Boston leads the series 3-0 and can advance to the conference finals as early as Thursday at Madison Square Garden. Only three NHL teams have rallied from an 0-3 hole to advance.

However, the Philadelphia Flyers did it to the Bruins in 2010 in this round.

"We can talk about it all we want, but that's in the past," Bruins coach Claude Julien said. "We had to live with that and we still have to live with that."

Boston also nearly blew a 3-1 series edge in the opening round this year against Toronto, before rallying from a three-goal deficit in the third period and capturing Game 7 in overtime.

"The Toronto series, I didn't think our team was in the zone the way it is right now," Julien said. "I anticipate -- knowing my team -- that we're going to come out the same next game and certainly not be the Jekyll and Hyde team that we were in the first round."

the Bruins were using Trent Whitfield as their second line center by the end of the 2010 series...seeing as they have virtually nothing but centers up front, that won't happen again

His love affair with Ryan Callahan is incredibly annoying too. He pretty much makes the game unwatchable for me. I never in a million years thought I ever say this, but I miss Jack Edwards.

They've really gotten to Toews. He has an argument that they aren't calling some of the interferences and hooking, but the Wings are still outskating the Hawks and Howard has been lights out.

You realize that's what they've said around here about the Red Wings in every year they haven't won the cup?

I love the way the Hawks have played with desperation. It's a team that needed to face some adversity, and they've stood up to the test. Game 7 will be epic.

Oh yeah... I can't wait to see Iginla light it up against the Bruins. That would be extra sweet!
