How many of Kobasew's goals were of the empty net variety?

Aubrey Huff is the f***ing man even though Aubrey is a girl's name.

Even a sabermetrician needs to recognize the emotional damage it could cause - would Papi be lost forever and would the other guys take it as a sign of disrespect. *I do not buy into this, but there could be some merit to it*

Execute the f***ing scouting report against Evan Longoria.

Wind tunnel

You know as well as I do that Raycroft played way over his head that season in Boston and once he was figured out by the league, it was game over. I guess it boils down to whether or not you want Kessel, Rask, and Goalie X over Thomas, Rask, and skater Y. I have a tough time thinking the latter is a better option - especially since Timmy is an older goaltender and his style isn't conducive to aging. So what you're saying is, you think if Rask outplays Thomas, he'll win the starting job? In what universe does any hockey team pay a goaltender $5 million to sit on the bench? Oh absolutely - not at $5 million over the next four years. Thomas has earned that contract - it should NOT have been the Bruins who paid it. Salary cap? He's had a fantastic season and will probably win the Vezina - he's had a pretty weak series though. Ward has been ridiculous so maybe it's an unfair comparison - but it's clear who has the edge in goaltending this series. I've never believed the Price hype. I'll say it again - if Thomas could have been had for a reasonable price, I would be on board with the Thomas/Rask platoon. I just don't see how they make it work over the next four years - it's quite possible they will stunt Rask's development. Can't argue - I don't find Thomas at $5 million to be a reasonable alternative. I could be way off base but I think Rask is thought of at a higher standard than Price was. Who's going to take Kobasew or Sturm? Stone hands and a speed guy coming off kneww surgery? I agree - but there's gotta be times where Thomas comes through and doesn't allow these crippling goals when the team is tied or they are nursing a one goal lead. Like Schilling used to say - "If we only score one, I have to hold them to zero" - Timmy's gotta pitch a shutout every once in a while. I agree. Let's hope they figure it out tonight.

Awesome handle, it'd be nice if Lucic showed up for this series, starting tonight.

As mentioned in the picks thread, Strasburg is eligible because he will be drafted and signed this season, and the goal is to build the best team over the next 5 years. Liriano is still available.

BSN07 - Strasburg can be a minor league pick if you want it to be as such.

If he's the best ever he should be able to win at least one, is my point.

This has to do with baseball how?

f*** on Kershaw and Verlander, two guys I was targeting this round

Let's see him win one before we even say something like that.

Fact 1 v. 3 - I love how we downgrade "great" to "above average" Fact 4 - Logical fallacy Fact 5 - Rask could be ready next season and signing a vet on the cheap would not have been difficult. When Kessel bolts this offseason the majority of Bruins fans won't think this way. Why does Timmy never get ANY blame? The 2nd and 4th goals were atrocious last night. Let me ask you a question - do you think the Bruins can win this series if Thomas continues to play the way he has?

Cam Ward stood on his f***ing head in Game 2 and stole that game for Carolina - when was the last time you could say the same about TT? Ever?

You're off base. How many runs would have scored that wouldn't anyway? 10? 20?

So, when do we get pissed at Jon Lester and Josh Beckett the way we do Brad Penny?

Completely lopsided trade, not shocked it was vetoed

What was the supposed trade?

You're going to spend millions of dollars on Omar Vizquel when Lowrie is coming back in a month and a half?

Manuel.

Didn't answer the question. PS - How you holding up after yesterday's news?

Because it's completely redundant?
