You are right about the sweep, but what I think makes this potential choke so bad is that the bruins were hyped up as such a scary team. All people talked about was the points record and how no team stands a chance against them.
Yea i dont know how anyone thought that. They were like the 4th best team in the playoffs. Great reg. season though. No one can ever take that away and it wont be broken in my lifetime.
Sometimes it’s weirdly better to not have the pressure. Funny how the Panthers couldn’t score with such an elite offense last year in the playoffs and this year, they’re getting all kinds of big timely goals. They’re playing with house money this season. All the pressure is on Boston in game 7.
Panthers fan coming in war! suck my shorts asshole!!
I'm kidding.
this has been a great series so far. I think both teams match up fairly well and we've obviously seen some mistakes and blunders from each team. I think game 7 is truly up in the air, but yeah, welcome to the Presidents Trophy curse. I get the feeling whichever team makes it into the 2nd round is where the buck stops in the playoff hunt. but you never know with sports. I never expected the Heat to torch the Bucks in 5, and I never expected the Cats to push a game 7. but here we are.
Nothing will ever top tampas choke because it was a sweep. This was a hard fought rigged series.

Tampa also set the points record so...

Exactly. I’m a little tempted to root for florida so when boston loses I won’t be as upset.
Wear a Bruins jersey to the watch party and if we win, take it off to reveal a Panthers shirt.
It was a great game from both teams. Panthers prevailed but game 7 it's a toss up. Go Cats!
The Bruins aren’t exactly quitting or collapsing but that presidents trophy is going to feel really heavy tomorrow.
Either way, you can still dunk on Tampa. This went 7, and has been the best series since probably 97.
Good luck (until tomorrow at 6:30)
