SAKS-AVENUE Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Trying not to read into this too much, maybe just look at it as confidence. OB talks about his mohawk and 5 guys left in the room that need to shave their head. His tone seemed a little ahead of himself in the way he refers to the next round and how he has a first round stripe already notched on his head.. I hope OB and the boys don't count their chickens before they are hatched. GOHABS GO!!!!!!!!!! 1st round stripe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAKS-AVENUE Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Wow interesting move. I wonder who will play the point on the PP with Markov. Streit had a therapy day yesterday so he may be pretty banged up. Carbo is hinting LlL TlTS on the point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbhatt Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Carbo is hinting LlL TlTS on the point. Oooooh....I like the sound of that; a guy with the speed to zip in for the backdoor pass is just what we need to throw the Bruins penalty killers off.

SAKS-AVENUE Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Anyone reading this? Harry Sinden However, Bruins' Harry Sinden is not impressed by Savard's play. "I'm not a fan of his," Sinden told the Boston Globe on Wednesday. "He's one of these guys who has batting average but no runs batted in. You know what I mean? He gets a lot of points. He's a good player, I'm just not a fan." Sinden also raised some eyebrows by mentioning that stalwart defenceman Zdeno Chara may be playing injured. "We've got a hell of a leader in Chara, but I think he's hurting right now," Sinden told the Globe. "This rib injury. He's playing OK, but he's not as aggressive." Sounds like he's taking a page from "The Motivation School of Guy Lafleur" For one Savard is the most dangerous player the B's have at the moment, and two ribs? I thought it was a shoulder if he is indeed injured at all. Doesn't Sinden still work for the Bruins? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoZed Posted April 17, 2008 Author Share Posted April 17, 2008 No Streit at the point and Lil Kost in replacement means not many shot from the blueline from that part. Either Markov will take the shots now or they'll try more plays down low. In any case, our PP has been so lame a change wouldn't hurt. Anyone reading this? Sounds like he's taking a page from "The Motivation School of Guy Lafleur" For one Savard is the most dangerous player the B's have at the moment, and two ribs? I thought it was a shoulder if he is indeed injured at all. Doesn't Sinden still work for the Bruins? It's a few days old. Many B's fans are pissed at Sinden for revealing Chara's rib injury. Especially because Sinden still works as an "advisor" to the Bruins owners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athlétique.Canadien Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 (edited) OK Habs, let's work hard tonight to redefine the "B" on our enemies' jersey to stand for "BURIED" It may not be a broom we are using but I'll accept a shovel GO HABS GO :hlogo: Edited April 17, 2008 by Athlétique.Canadien Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime Minister Koivu Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I think we will see another tight checking, hard hitting game as usual. If the Habs can score an early one then the floodgates will open, especially if it is a softy. Thomas has been great the last three games. He isn't the type of goalie to continue like that for much longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Habs can score an early one then the floodgates will open, especially if it is a softy. That's sort of my feeling too. If the Habs can hit early, it might knock all wind out of the Bruins and discourage them for the rest of the game... ... BUT I wouldn't count on it. I just hope the boys don't come out over-confident and flat and let the B's get in a groove. They need to show some of that killer instinct and impose themselves.

Easy Ryder Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 The Bell Centre will be a crazy place tonight. Last game there was a tailgate before the game but it rained and the party didn't rise. There should be a giant outdoor screen somewhere for nights like this. Go :hlogo: Go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Familia Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 why have all the bulldogs been called up i hope carbo isnt thinking of putting them in the line up? is he trying to scare his team? i dont get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toren Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 why have all the bulldogs been called up i hope carbo isnt thinking of putting them in the line up? is he trying to scare his team? i dont get it There's no roster limit in the playoffs and the Hamilton Bulldogs are out of the playoff. He can either send all the Bulldogs home early, or have them practice with the team and gain some experience. They probably won't play, but if they're needed, then they've already been practicing with the team and are ready to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonus Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 not that I really care, but does calling up these guys affect their salaries? AFAIK, there is no additional salary paid to players during the playoffs (are there playoff shares like in baseball?), but I know players with 2-way contracts make far more when up with the big club. Is there any way that calling these guys up works out to be like an end of season bonus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any way that calling these guys up works out to be like an end of season bonus? I believe the players vote on the playoff shares. It may have changed. I believe they are given a certain amount to divy up among themselves and the more players they include, the less the individual share becomes.

Neech Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I don't really get why these players are up. Sure, they can help practice and stuff, and they have nothing better to do, but I don't know how good it would be to have that many more people who aren't playing in the games. Maybe they'll send a few of them away soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanpuck33 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 http://ne.cn8.tv/channel/channelhome.asp?lChannelID=647 Came across this link today, it would seem to be a stream site for tonight's game. I have no idea if it will be limited to US IP addresses or anything, but I figured I'd pass it along, since it seems to be an above board way to view the game for us non Canadians.
