The Negative Thread 2011-12

A listless effort against our number one rival.

I don't want to be "that guy", and a few years ago I probably wouldn't have given it a 2nd thought but doesn't Boston have to be our number 1 rival at this point.

Boston is, for sure, without a doubt our number 1 rival.

Not to further downplay the TO rivalry because I hate them but in MY mind, the last decade it goes like this:

1 - Boston - I'll never get over them winning the Cup after going through us. HATE everything about the Bruins, particularly Jack Edwards and NESN that I am forced to watch because of stupid Center-ice.

2 - Philadelphia - They have bullied us for several years and always manage to cheat league and cap rules, the Betts thing is just so Philly-esque. HATE the Flyers, I also especially hate how they're always good by being big, when we're munchkins.

3 - Toronto - I can't stand the Leafs but they've been irrelevant the last few years and our last PO matchup with them was well before I was born, it's hard to honestly hate them as much as the first 2. Dion Phaneuf has cranked up my hatred for them, so thats good but it's not as deeply rooted from playoff 2 week obsession hate as the Bruins and Flyers.

Having said all that 2 things that make my stomach turn, even though its only been 5 days: The Boston Bruins are the defending cup champions AND the Toronto Maple Leafs are undefeated so far while having the league's leading scorer.

I think I just threw up in my mouth.

Gomez.

Now, I could promise to come on this thread and say that every day it applies (which is most every day) until Martin sends him down to Hamilton, or Gauthier rummages up a trade (somehow), but I expect that would only irritate the mods here.

It's one of of my (few) rules: don't irritate the mods at Canadiens.com FanBoard.

Wow!, how about that Sabre face-off play 5-on-5, with 5 seconds left in the 2nd period!

Recognized it from my hockey days, long ago.

Coach chalked it up on the blackboard for us, showing us how to defend it.

I can't remember if it was Tyke or Atom minor hockey, but I do know it was before Pee-wee, 'cause I still had some of my baby teeth.

Meh.
