Montreal Canadiens Hockey

Me I was pulling for Boston.

Why? Because they were playing at home, and nothing beats partying at home.
Congrats Bruins!

I'm partial to both teams but I think the Red Wings/Blackhawks series might be even better than the finals. :exciting:

Wings are tough, Hawks need to crank up the intensity and play full tilt!

 

[NorthStar]

The Wings have skills and spirit, the Hawks have stamina and guts.

Spirit vs Heart.

Toronto fans, did that epic 3rd period collapse really happen last night, or was it just a horrible nightmare? Anything can happen in a game 7, but that? really?? I was pulling for the Leafs but glad I'm not one of their fans, sorry it went down that way!

Before getting on the ice to play my game, I walked into the bar at the arena with all my gear on. Leafs up 4-1 in the third. It's all over but the crying. Play my game, come off the ice to hear Boston one. Me and my fellow Leaf fans are the ones crying! What a major choke. BUT - lets keep in mind, this is a young team. They will learn from this experience and be better for it next year when playoffs arrive.

I feel for ya. I went to the CHL championship game 7 last Saturday night and the same thing happened. Down 2 goals halfway through the 3rd and the home team (Allen Americans) tied it up and then won it 2 minutes into overtime. I felt so sorry for the other team, especially the fans who drove the 6-8 hours to see the game. I was happy Allen won, but I can't imagine being on the losing side, losing like that.

I was never more disappointed in my life:reallymad::reallymad: You're right, the Leafs will learn from this experience and hopefully be better next season.

Just caught up to this thread. Hey dlb2, you had to post a video of the 79 Canadiens beating MY NY RANGERS?!?!?!?!
@#$%^&*
We had dem bum Habs beat good in game one, but we got cocky (and some of the boys got coke-y, if you know what I mean), and down we went. Man, that was frustrating! Anyways, sorry boys, love to see dem Habs lose, although Ottawa is a dirty team, so don't like them much either. Can't believe my Rangers actually stole this series from the Caps.

(PS- you do know that the only reason the Habs have all those Cups is because they had territorial rights to the best young players in their region, right? It was a rigged affair for many a decade for the Habs. Now without the benefit of a rigged draft, they are known as the Hab Nots, hehe )
