I'm hoping they use the hit on Raymond as something to rally from. Guy got his back broken for this cup, go get it for him.

On the other hand, Boston has played 6 very good games. Vancouver has played 3 good games.

Boston is due for a stinker :)

Oh, and this, fixed:

Correction, Thomas played 6 very good games. The Bruins only scored twice in the 3 games in Vancouver, shutout in 2 of them. Thomas kept the score close. I would say the Canucks are due for some goal production.

OK, prediction time.

Kelser is going to lay it all out there and make the difference in energy. He can heal tomorrow.
Twins will be doing their best, but I don't expect them to get many points.
Canucks win 3-2 with all the scoring coming from the guys who have been doing it to the Bruins… Burrows, Lapierre, and Torres, but I would take a pretty one from either Sedin.

:lol: I am just happy the cup needs to be in our arena.

The moneyline sits at +120 for the Bruins and -140 for the Canucks.

I didn't know until just before I posted it myself.

Basically it means the odds makers are picking Van for the win. The -140 means that if you bet $140.00 on the Nucks, you will make $100.00 if they win ($240.00 back). On the other hand the +120 means if you bet $100.00 on Boston and they win, you will make $120.00 ($220.00 back).

It seems to me there could be a less confusing system.

To make a better comparison, 100 bones on Boston to win and you could make 120.00, 100 on Vancouver and you would only make 71.43.

Last game would have been the perfect time to do that, why wait til game 7?

Noone knew it was a broken back during the game.
I hear he's still in hospital in Boston.
Horton was released from hospital 12 hours after he was concussed, and was at the next game in the bright and loud stadium 48 hours after?
I guess no suspension since broken backs aren't a big deal like concussions.

I read that Raymond suffered a cracked vertebrae, and that the crack goes completely through.
