I'm sure he regrets it now.
The Bruins looked spectacular in the series against the Penguins. In order for LA or Chicago to beat the Bruins, everyone of their top scorers has to score, and have to play at their most elite level as well. I also don't think the Blackhawks or Kings can beat the Bruins, they ended up being better as the playoffs went on. I don't think it will be an easy win for the Bruins though, but my pick is changing to the Bruins for 2013 Stanley cup champions in 7 games.
Also with the three teams left, those are the three last Stanley Cup Champions as well.

I feel bad for Iginla to a degree. I don't think it's fair to criticize him for "chasing a Cup" when that's what people have been calling for him to do for three years.
And I'm just going to call it now: I think Rask is going to deliver the Cup to Boston this year regardless of who comes out of the West.

All I heard coming into this series was how Quick is the best goalie in the world but I'm sorry to say he didn't impress me. With the exception of two games, he looked average at best. He got outplayed by Crawford. If the Hawks win the Stanley Cup, Crawford has to be in the conversation as one of the best goalies in the NHL
I think the Bruins have this, too. In 6
I'll take the Blackhawks, just to keep it interesting....
I should punch you in your whore mouth.
Actually, I kinda hope the Blackhawks win, but I don't think they will.

Go for it, I could use the free dental work....
After being a lifetime Oriole fan, it's against my very nature to root for any team from Boston.
I'm from Chicago. You know who I'm picking
WTH ... ... where you been?
I don't really have any ill will towards Iggy, he's always been one of my favorite non-bruins. But when he went out of his way to block a trade to the Bruins to go play with that overhyped punk, and then gets bounced by the team he (sort of) gave the finger to without really even showing up.... He justifiably deserves some "lol iginlas".
Oh, and bring on the Hawks. If Tuukka plays anything close to the way he did against Pitt, this thing's already over.

Not hatching an assassination plot against the Sedin twins, I can assure you that.
Must be ESPN "hockey experts?" I've never heard anyone call him "the best." And I agree with you he isn't (personally, off the top of my head, I'd build a team around Pekka Rinne, but that's just me).
quick isn't the best but he was the hottest goalie going into the series against chicago.
with that said I'll take Chicago in 6 (still can't get over how the bruins came back over the leafs, its mind boggling)

That said, I was amazed the Leafs came back from down 3-1 in the series. And it's not that mind boggling. When you play your defensive players, like McClement, for example, for 12 minutes, it's not that confusing. Best defense is a good offense. If the Leafs wanted to be in the Bruins zone, Carlyle shouldn't have had Kessel (who finally earned my respect after four years), Lupul, Bozak (minus faceoffs) sitting on the bench for 85% of the third. That was horrible coaching after a great year and series to that point.
Posted this in the nba thread by accident.
Toronto and Detroit had the conference champs on the ropes and couldnt finish. Nobody else even gave them trouble. Oh what could have been.
I think the west has had the stronger teams this year, but Boston looks like world beaters right now. I'll go Chicago in 7.
Anybody think Crawford is making some noise in the Team Canada goalie race? Fleury is out. Brodeur is out. Ward maybe. Luongo maybe. Price will be there, but I don't think he's a shoe in to start. Elliot and Crawford should both get a shot. Maybe the U.S can lend us a couple. They're stacked in net.
