Boston needs another big 3rd period.

> 9 times out of 10? Really? The kid is good, but Thomas has proven to be a very consistent goalie all year. Price…not so much.
Price came in so late so it’s somewhat difficult to tell what he could do with an entire season. Then again, he’s 20 and playing pretty unbelievable. Thomas is what, 30+ and just starting to come along. I give Thomas a hell of a lot of credit because he did his time and earned his spot in the NHL, but Price is still way better.

This is gonna be a great debate until Montreal exits the playoffs. I still think Price will carry this team. Like I said, better to make the mistakes early when your team can bail you out against an 8th seed instead of cracking in the Cup Finals. And when they need him, such as this game 7, he’s rising to the occasion.
And if you’re right, well then you do get the last laugh…

Then they got Niedermayer back and to make salary cap room they traded Andy McDonald to St. Louis for Doug Weight. Then Teemu came back from retirement. They also traded Bryzgalov to the Coyotes but had a decent backup move in from their AHL team.

Anaheim’s penalty kill was the death of them in the series against Dallas. And they couldn’t make up for the loss with their PP. Special teams, physical play, and goaltending (in no particular order) win playoff games. Anaheim just couldn’t save themselves on the PK. 5th year in a row now the Cup champions have not advanced past the 2nd round.

Price looked good tonight. Lets see what he does against a better offense.

Yep, Price makes 25 saves for his 2nd shutout of the series, Montreal kills all 6 penalties they took and added one goal on the PP, and out hit Boston. Definitely a solid game 7 win for them, that’s how it’s done.

Yeah, not looking good for them heading back to Washington with Ovechkin finally waking up. I might still go 3 for 4 on my 1st round east picks. 🙂

I grew up on the border of NY and Quebec. All I’ll say is that french canadians sucks.
I really hope Montreal gets blown out in the next round.
