I picked Vancouver but I hope Boston wins. I'm liking Vancouver less than before after watching this series so far.

I loved the Boston players shoving their fingers at the Canucks' mouths during scrums.

Big time cheap shot by Rome. Would've loved to see a Bruin do the same to one of the twins.

Chara or Lucic needs to drop the gloves and go after one of the Canucks; Thornton needs to go after Torres. Its a shame the refs threw Thornton out with so much time to play. It would have been fun to watch a good fight.

No. And that's why the refs (at least attempted to) take control of the game.

No cheap shots are good. No matter who it is (although it's really hard for me to think about the cook top.

Those girls will bake alive if we leave them be.


Let's leave them be.

man these Bruins are hot, 12-1 the last two games. They're just outworking the Nucks.

2 games that could have easily gone the other way in Vancouver and two blow outs in Boston, the Cunucks are lucky this is a 2-2 series.

Vancouver better answer the bell at home in game 5 because this series screams over to me.

Yeah, the Momentum is totally with the Bruins now, after outscoring Vancouver 12-1 over the past two games. none of these dudes have prolly gotten whacked like that since junior hockey. I don't see how the Canucks are gonna shake that off, mentally, even if they are going back home Friday night.
You could see it on their faces on their bench after Boston went up 4-zip in Game 4 tonite. All those Canucks sitting there looked like they just got a shot of novacine. Like they knew it was over. I think they sorta shot their wad in the first two games, trying to--and doing a good job of--beating Boston at their own game of head-knockin' hockey. But now I think the Bruins are peaking at the right time.
But now Boston has their special teams play back on track, and Thomas (their keeper) is in The Zone. 37 saves!
The Cup is coming back to Beantown.

I would bet the house that the bruins locker room is very level headed right now. Their coaching staff will not let them get ahead of themselves despite two absolute blowouts. To win the cup, they need to win one in Vancouver which will be difficult. Expect game 5 to be “game 1” for both of these clubs.

Fortunatly, Boston’s first four games have all been good, even with the loss. Vancouvers has not. Boston will continue to bring it. Vancouver is thin on D, and Bostons cycling and forcheck got the better of them. It will continue to do so. On the flip side, Vancouver’s PP is a measly 6 %. Boston’s D in the neutral zone and in their end looks like a Stanley cup winner. Burrows/sedin’s can’t solve this Defensive system at all.

I like where this is going. A win in Vancouver and I’ll be losing sleep until Monday night…

Boston needs to come out strong in Canuck-land on Friday. If Vancouver can score a couple early--watch the Bruins deflate. This is all about the Big Mo...and the B's have it and a lot of it! If Boston scores early and often on Friday...strike up the band in Gov't Center, the cup is coming home.

Heck, I'm getting antsy just talking about it.

Let's go BRUINS!

What gets me is that the so called experts still think the Canucks are the better team.

I would love to see the Bruins win it. And have another origial six team bring the cup to there home.

Canucks are showing a textbook example of Eurotrash hockey.

If Boston can steal game 5 on the road, they're taking it in 6. A couple of bounces go Boston's way in games 1 and 2, Boston sweeps. Vancouver is extremely lucky this is a 2-2 series. And if Boston wins in another blowout tonight, expect Schneider to start game 6.
