Heluva shot.

Don't think the Bs won the Cup last time while they were in town (and in fact despite Boston's championship run lately, very few have been won at home), so hopefully they can this time around.

Which part of "penalties aren't reviewable" are you guys struggling with understanding

I understand that's the current rule just fine, I don't understand why they didn't allow it in the first place if offsides was made reviewable. Beyond that I'd be shocked if the NHL doesn't change the rule after that game - they're generally quick to change rules when big flaws smack everyone in the face.

I mean there is a lot of people that think offsides shouldnt be reviewable (within reason)

I more just want consistency. I can see going either way (though I'd probably lean towards allowing the review), so long as it's an across the board thing and not an A and B, but not C thing. The NFL is really screwy with their rules and perhaps if they weren't so f'd up we'd have seen the right team facing the Patriots in the Super Bowl. NHL I find better about tuning rules logically, but I feel they sort dropped the ball on how they did reviewables.

Also, lordy long open net sequences are quite a thing.

Edit: Nice on Chara. Quite the fling. I had to laugh when I realized last game he had taken off the visor and just had the jaw guard going. I guess he can retire whenever so not like he has to worry about the future of his career.

Yes, I'm sure the best thing for the game is to give the same refs who turn "puck over the line before players" into brain surgery the power to go back and hunt for penalties.

Blues have been playing Bruins-style hockey all series long.
That's what would have made losing to them tonight or Wednesday hurt a hell of a lot more than losing to Chicago 6 years ago.

Bruins should volunteer to play game 7 in St Louis as they're better on the road and the Blues suck at home.
