On the line? Fire him already!

ESPN keeps saying that this is the first time a #1 seed has blown a 3-1 series lead to a #8 seed, but didn't the Bruins do just that to then #8 seed Montreal like 5 years ago? A close friend of mine is a Bruins fan and he swears it happened about 5 years ago.

Anyone?

I think you're thinking of 2004 when Montreal came back from down 3-1 but Boston was the #2 seed that year. Montreal beat #1 seed Boston in 2002, but that series was 4-2.

And, of course, the Canadiens' goalie for those series...Jose Theodore

Correct!

If anyone wants to jump on the Bruins band wagon feel free. They are real starting to come together and Savard will be back for this series. Plus the Flyers are banged up.

Caps should make a play on Tim Thomas i nthe offseason since Rask has been lights out of late.

The most recent example of what we're going through is what the Sharks went through last year.

The San Jose Sharks were the Western Conference regular season champions and the Presidents' Trophy winners with the best record at 117 points.

Sharks lost 4-2, to the #8 seed Anaheim Ducks. I'm telling you one day both of us will get our act together and face off in the finals.
