Meaningless

TIM THOMAS HAS NEVER WON A PLAYOFF SERIES

Means something, but considering the Bruins are a far superior team, shouldn't matter that much.

[ryanspeer2001]

I'm not a big hockey guy but I'm sure if you look historically very few if ANY teams have a winning playoff record against Montreal. Also Tim Thomas has only been a starting goalie for about 3 years and 2 years before that did 1/2 duty with another goalie. During the last 4 seasons Boston was only in playoffs this year and last year.

I agree its hard to lay the chalk here but I still think Boston should prevail 4-1 or 4-2 when its all said and done.

[Nicky Santoro]

axel,

these guys at sbr have no clue here. they all go by who has a better record.. LOL..

i feel bad for the clueless kids here. they dont understand that playoffs is a different story.. reg season means shit. habs have planned to finish here so they can meet boston..

mtl in 6

[betplom]

Most of those stats started 60 years ago.

Montreal had first rights to any Quebec player for years back in the old days, meanwhile players from Ontario played for every team in the old NHL.

If Toronto were allowed first crack at Ontario born players they would have enjoyed a similar advantage.

Ever wonder why no big name french stars played for Chicago or the Rangers back in the day? How did they all end up on the Canadiens roster?

Don't you think Richard or Belliveau would have been wanted on the Rangers or Blackhawks back in the day?

[Axel Edge]

why are we talking about Ontario Players there are no teams from Ontario in THE CDN Playoffs...dont know much about Geography in Canada...but thats my 2 cents.....

Nicky I respect your word but MTL in 6 is just not likely. If you believe MTL will win this series how do you figure in Bostons 2 wins?

Do they lose 2 at home? Even if they split the first 2 games in the series and Montreal wins both theirs at home to go up 3-1 I see Boston stretching this out. I just can't make sense of a MTL win here.

Either way I could care less who wins

[Axel Edge]

Anyways I may be out to "lunch" on this but......history has a funy feeling of repeating itself....especially when it comes to Mtl Bost Playoff series.....different year ...same story.....All i Know is you will make Money playing Montreal every Game at these odds....

[betplom]

why are we talking about Ontario Players there are no teams from Ontario in THE CDN Playoffs...dont know much about Geography in Canada...but thats my 2 cents.....

Most NHL players hail from Ontario, have a look at the Bruins roster, full of Ontario boys.

My point was that Quebec born players were taken by the Canadiens before any other teams had a chance at them, they had a huge advantage and the stats reflect that.

What relevance do 30 yrs of stats between the habs and Bruins tonight?

NOTHING. Bruins in 5.

[Axel Edge]

I guess your from Toronto........catn take the Habs right....does that rivalry still exist....where the parade goes to Mtl for the Game and smoked meat?

[Axel Edge]

anyways i got the "Habs" tonight.....couldnt pass up on the odds.......Plekanec vowed in their Paper that oyu would see a different Player in the Series......last year he was lights out with Kosyn.....Mtl needs a second line and they win........Nobody can reckon with Kovalev-Tanguay-Koivu.....but the 2nd line is a Big IF

[Nicky Santoro]

I guess your from Toronto........catn take the Habs right....does that rivalry still exist....where the parade goes to Mtl for the Game and smoked meat?

axel, i don't know you, but i already like you. you seem like a very knowledgeable guy, unlike plommer. pay no attention to him axel, he's a very jealous guy.. he hates montreal cause we have 24 stanley cup to toronto's 0 in the last 42 yrs. i do feel very bad for him. he is very frustrated.. do you blame him?

You're obviously quite intelligent as you cracked the code and figured out my location.

Here's another obvious piece of information, Leaf fans do not like anything about the habs, too often the habs had good teams and loved rubbing it in, now that the habs are nothing near the powerhouses they once were, Leaf fans enjoy their failures, simple.

Understand this, the habs have ZERO chance of beating the Bruins this round, NONE.

It feels good.

Yes, habs fans have more previous Cups, that is a fact, also fact is that they are no closer to their next cup than Toronto.

[Axel Edge]

Not at all....i think i got TO down as 1967....but i do feel bad for them, isnt it Canadas largest city .....they deserve one......im not a Habs fan Nicky....but I like their speed this year......its similar to the young guns In Van City.........Ive been capping playoffs for 20 years.......with Markov they take the Series hands down again and again........but now its gonna all be up to Carey.....if he plays like he did in the Junior Championship.....they go on...........

[DwightShrute]

why don't they drink tea in Toronto?


All the Cups are in Montreal

[Nicky Santoro]

i can't wait to remind you of this after this series.

[Axel Edge]

Betplom i think u know ur hockey....but the HABS are indeed closer to the Cup......Edmonton Oilers which seed where they in when they went to the finals?....im not saying we are talking the same things.....But a shot they do got............enough said

[Matt Rain]

Ditto.

But you'll claim the habs were big underdogs and were up against it with injuries etc.

Nicky we in Canada are used to all the shit that comes from Quebec.

I doubt you'll take it like a man, its not the Quebec way.
Whining and crying, thats the Quebec way.

[Matt Rain]

Let's drop that puck already.

The only whiner here is you, miserable little man.

[DwightShrute]

Habs 4-3 in OT

[Flyers09]

stats go out the window in stanley cup finals...bruins will win!

Don't you think Richard or Belliveau would have been wanted on the Rangers or Blackhawks back in the day?

It would have started back from the 1920's I believe... as there's no way they would have met 31 times in the playoffs in 60 years.

[betplom]

I'm hardly little, mon ami.

[hels]

and the Canadiens have won the past 3 series, with the Bruins winning the 4 series previous to this

[supershark]

habs suck, they are by far the worst team in the playoffs. See Ottawa last year if you want to know how this series is going to go. Bruins in 4.
