    Confident we are better than them, look at it from their point of view, they beat us barely, to hold the home ice advantage, one other note Chara is so overrated, he's a giveaway waiting to happen

    yes i agree about Stralman, Mac, Boyle and Pyatt, Stepan.....thought Hagelin played well also and Zuccarelo as well aside from the back check on the OT goal.

    Yes, Cally and Nash.... yuukk.

    The PP is just a joke, first off, they continue to lose every face off on the pp, immediately get the puck dumped into their end, and then can't even enter the offesive zone and set up..then when they finally do, there's like 10 seconds left in the pp and they get 1 shot on goal.........rinse and repeat.

    Umm, hello, Hagelin?!?! He may be the most consistant player this post season.

    Assistant coaches are like umpires and referees. If you know their names, it's because they aren't doing a good job.

    I wish Tortorella would show the same passion in coaching the power play that he shows being a sarcastic ass to the media.

    That's a pretty rational way of looking at it. It's true.

    he played great and the game would've been over much earlier in OT if not for him.....but still managed to let in an infuriatingly staright on blue line slap shot with no screen in front, don't care that it was Chara..........so again i go back to my theory for opponents, shoot from far out and you've got a better chance on Hank.....

    but they cannot let that many shots through again

    Truthfully they didn't let all that many through. Boston attempted an unreal amount of shots - 93 (!). That's a shooting gallery, and the fact that only 48 got on goal is pretty impressive. I mean, the Rangers blocked about 30.

    yeah guess so.......considering it was 4 periods basically, just thought they were pretty loose defensively last night overall....especially in OT.

    We just need to take one from them in Boston, I'm not that worried. The Bruins are as inept as us offensively and we kept it close despite not playing our best hockey.

    Hank is beating himself up after letting that OT goal in and mad Hank= Inhuman Hank (like the last two games vs. the Caps). I like our chances Sunday.

    Holy shit does our PP suck though, YEEEESHHH

    the pp, lol, not to beat this to death, but it is literally cringe worthy.......I can't watch, it makes me uncomfortable!

    I think by now most of you might know that I'm generally pressimistic regarding this team, so it's no surprise that 'm getting an ikky feeling here.

    most fans here and out and about, on the radio etc, seem comfortable that they will bounce back........even I felt better as a fan coming into this series than I did against the Caps.

    Now I can see them getting swept by losing 4 OT games in a row here........yes me of little faith
