It's crazy that the Canucks are getting outscored 14-6 and they have the opportunity to win the series heading into game 6.

At least Luongo can't get the Conn Smythe right. Outside of their series with the Sharks he has been all over the place.

Hopefully Vancouver can close this out Monday.

I'll be pretty damn surprised if this doesn't head back to Vancouver for a game 7.

I'd say so. Looking at Thomas' overall numbers I think he is the Conn Smythe winner this year, win or lose. Unlike, when Gigere got it after a loss it would be hard to argue a vote against Thomas.

+1

He definitely deserves it.

Someone has to 'splain this home ice advantage to me.

DevsJetsYanks88 · 06-13-2011, 10:51 PM

For the series, it's now 19-7 Bruins, yet we're seeing a game 7.

I can't remember a Stanley Cup Final quite like this one.

Big L · 06-14-2011, 12:11 PM

The team who hits the hardest and finishes their checks will win game 7.

He did it in the Chicago series, and we've seen it happen even worse up in

Boston. The Chowd-crowd has been merciless on him, which seems to add

even more to his unraveling. Sitting out game 6 would also enable him to be

fresh if the series does end up going back to Vancouver. He has played a ton

of games this post season and, IMO, a rest would do him good.

Too late to answer this, but I was 100% in starting Schneider.

Ditto. No way the scummy Canucks deserve the cup. I've never witnessed such a bunch of classless, crybaby, cheap-shot floppers as on that team. Down to the man, they are all bums.

If Vancouver wins Game 7 by one goal, it will officially become the NHL version of the 1960 World Series.

Yeah, and Boychuck's hit on Mason Raymond that broke his back was a clean check (with no suspension....glad to see Shanahan is being as consistent as Colin Campbell)

Or Thornton's antics firing pucks at Luongo during practice.

Or Tim Thomas' arrogance.

Or Zdeno Chara...period.

Stay classy Boston fans.....as always.

Great post.

I started out rooting for the Canucks but as the series progressed, I changed my mind. I have no idea why. The hit on horton changed my mind.

Agreed. Boychuk should have been suspended on the same basis that Rome was suspended.

Vinnie overstated it a bit. There are certainly some very likeable Canucks. Malhotra, Hansen and Schneider come immediately to mind, but there are others as well.

That said, I'll gladly put the three Bruins of your choice in a league-wide "biggest douches" contest against Lapierre, Burrows and Luongo. Outside of Vancouver and Montreal, I would expect the Canuck trio to win in a landslide.

I'm not a Bruins fan but I live in New England he went to college here at University of Vermont. I've always thought he was a laid back quiet guy.
