and yea i mean cammy, and it was same for me too. i have a jersey with his name and im still proud to wear it.
i knoww rene didnt help us at all..our team still struggled.
you dont have to worry about gomez, he announced that he is retiring..

It was sweet though, just hoping that better days are around the corner.
You should be proud to wear it! Cammy is a pretty good player still, just playing for another team unfortunately. sad
Wait, when?

i wonder what are the chances of ever getting him back....
(im sure 0%)
well i dunno if anyone has made a big public announcement about it yet,
but i read it in an article that said he is retiring this season and wont be back
next year.

boston why? how could you loose sad

[klebold]

Boston needs to get rid of Zanon, Corvo, Ference, and... Lucic, yes looch needs to go, he fanned on every ******** play, everytime a goal was scored on the Bruins you could find Zanon doing something useless or on his face from falling, Corvo is made of glass and keeps trying to draw calls that result in being outnumbered, and Ference is just completely useless. If McQuaid and/or Horton was in the lineup instead of being injured for 50 years we would have won, not to mention our star player Bergeron was retarded from the head-hit.

Gotta give it to the Caps though, even with their crap record they played like a real playoff team, my 2nd team was Pittsburgh but they got knocked out by the Flyers, who I hate, so now all I care about is Phili, Florida, and Nashville losing.

Well...way to earn that President's Trophy Vancouver. You suck hahaha.

There's a chance Boston might not even make it past the first round either...

Yes there is...but at least my team didn't climb to the top just to be knocked out in the first round.

Good try Bruins! You guys fought hard!

Would have been cool to see them play LA. I love their regular season games. SO INTENSE! I cant imagine how great those teams would play each other in a playoff game.

The Pacific Division is my favorite. All of the teams are always so close. Its always an interesting playoff race. Other Divisions have the same teams every year in playoffs, but Dallas, LA, SJ, Phenix and Anaheim are always so close. Im a true Dallas fan to my core, but I love the SoCal rivalry. Its by far the best games I've ever seen. If Dallas didn't have the Stars, I would be a Kings fan, and the games against SJ would make it worth the trips to see those games. CRAZY! I had a feeling the Blues would take it though. Just because they had too much energy to break up.
SJ is amazing for the PURE fact that they have raped the Red Wings 2 years running in semi-finals (until this year). I love any team who puts Detroit to shame! haha.
And Thanks! smile Thats really nice of you.

Something I find very interesting.

Detroit, Chicago, Vancouver, Pittsburgh, and San Jose are all teams that provide great entertaining playoff hockey. Not saying the other teams didn't deserve to win it's just that all the teams advancing are very Defensive oriented teams such as Nashville, St. Louis, LA, and Phoenix. But I could be mistaken if the St. Louis and LA game turns out to be really entertaining.

But in all, I would have prefered to have the teams I listed as entertaining teams rather than have teams try and out trap one another razz

What! LA is an offensive team if I've ever seen one. As good as those goalies are, Its the entire team that works to win. Obviously the offense does its job if there are goals on the scoreboard. If those were all such defensive teams then why weren't all the scores lower? Because they arent. The teams that won have both! The teams that lost have one. Hockey is a team sport. Wins are never accredited to any particular line or if theyre front/back men. Its the entire team. Offense, Defense and a goalie. The defense's that lost are known for defending the goal. Their goalies are good too. They just lost.
Im happy about the way things are playing out. Im sick of the same teams being on top season after season. Its nice to see the hardworking teams who play well, get rewarded.

What I m saying is I would have preferred to see teams based on offensive skill with some defense and solid goaltending advancing rather than a team who is stingy and play the clock. For example, Vancouver vs Chicago last year was entertaining playoff hockey! Both sides didn't try to trap one another or settle for a 1 goal game.

Are you kidding? All the teams that have been eliminated are the teams who don't go for that "Play they clock" type game. Nashville is notorious for settling for a 1 goal game. St. Louis has been known to have the stingiest defense in the league. LA, with Sutton coaching has implemented the same tactics as St. Louis. Also, Phoenix relies heavily on defense first than offense.

Probably. : At least theres Patches?
Im hoping that that article is true... It would be so awesome, the Habs could get a 1st line center, or a few more good players.
So the Bruins lost! =D
