I only deleted it because I messed up on the link. I do delete a lot of comments, I agree. The weird part is I was thinking last night that Nick is probably going to say something about it this time. See how well I know you. I cannot argue with you. You are right.
However, when I deliberately answered the questions the exact opposite of how I really felt, I ended up being Marshand. Which means my personality is supposedly the least like him. That doesn't surprise me because he plays that sneaky, cheap shot style I hate even though he is a good player.
See who you end up being the least like. I am just curious.
Seguin in 3 games has a plus minus of +4 with 3 goals and 3 assists.
Is that a defensive liability?
Compare that with Martin St.Louis who is a -6 in the playoffs.
Would he fit into Julien's system?
Steven Stamkos is a -4.
The bottom line is two of Tampa Bay's top players are defensive liabilities. Especially when you consider that Tampa Bay is one of the two best defensive teams in the playoffs next to the Bruins. Those two players are on the ice when a lot of goals are scored against their team.
Chris Kelly has the best plus minus in the Playoffs with a +10
Zdeno Chara is a +9
Milan Lucic is a +8
Bergeron, Ference, Horton and Ryder have a +7
Kaberle is a respectable +6
The Bruins have 5 players in the top ten and 9 in the top 20. Tampa Bay has 1 in the top 10 and 3 in the top 20. Steve Downie is the best for Tampa at +8
I just love how the Bruins went into a "prevent" defense in the 2nd period (not). It prevented them from winning the game just like it always does in football. It was like the whole team thought: "Hey! We have 3 goals, there's no way Tampa can catch us now! Let's just take the rest of the game off. We deserve a rest. We don't even have to try to score on this powerplay we just got! We are all set."
It also would have been nice if Julien used his timeout at some point in the game to regroup the troops and tell them to start skating again and hitting someone. Like when Tampa scored their second goal. But,NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
5 Johnny - Most likely his last year as the leader of the stat pack (can you imagine how long stats will take to get posted next year?), Johnny squeezed out another Art Ross trophy for his collection. The question now is when does he switch to wing seeing as his defense took a big step backwards this year?
4 Mark - It’s too bad Griff tried to kill him a couple years ago or else his game might be even further along. Mark really emerged on defense this year and showed all the skill we wish Reggie had. Reggie is still better cause he isn’t moving to the terrible state of Florida.
3 Billy T- Another big big surprise this year. Billy also learned how to play defense at a high level and consistently got better from week to week making him a solid pick. Plus he drinks beer from a bottle. A big plus.
2 Jared - Came storming back when his season finally got underway after missing the first 2 months. Jared made sure he abused every sub-par goalie that showed up in Saugus this year (except for Bobby). Jared kept his complaining to an all-time low this year, but only because he doesn’t like typing on his iPad, and also had a winning year after 2 years straight below .500
1 JB - I don’t know what’s more impressive? Johnny getting 5 straight Art Ross trophies, or Borges getting within 3 points of winning it this year while being 57.3 pounds overweight? JB jumped right back into the swing of things and was visibly the best player all year long by far.
Honorable Mention:
Brendon - Just a couple more weeks vs. Kazes and he may have beaten JB in points.
Biggest Disappointments:
Mike D - Was picked after Brad a couple weeks. (no offence Brad)

Wouldn't miss it for the world.
I will play if my knee is up to it. I strained my patella tendon. It's day to day.
well, brendon, if you actually read up on this you would know the end of the world is 5 months later. Only the rapture is saturday. Lol.
So yeah, we can play sunday :) (borges, i couldnt remember your trademark smiley face)
I will be there.
Me Warren and Eric and his brother Jason are in. Darrin is still doubtfull. Billy is a maybe
I'm in, I'm surprised Eric is in...
Eric doesn't care about being cut from a team. He doesn't take it personal.
so...that leaves me asking:
what should the teams be this week???
Everyone needs to be on time. I want 3full games.
Especially the goalies.
Plus he's still making the trip.....for the contact bars
Johny, plan on getting 2 goalies. Darrin is unlikely
Brett, can Bobby play this week? I will try to get my father, but would still need another goalie.
And Nick, we should strive for 4 full games!
I'll ask him.
No Tony? Not even for the last week of the season?
Still have to hear back from him...
Tony's in. Will check with my father tonight...
dale, why must you delete every comment u make?
Im thornton btw.
Also Roloson played it outside the Trapezoid...on the PP...should have been a 5-3!!
now they mention it!
"the no touch zone"???
There was a 1:03 left on PP...
The only part of this that makes it better is we know they still wouldnt have scored.
Bobby is in. Tony vs Bobby for the last week of the season.

Should I delete this one, too? lol
the only weird part of this exchange is...nevermind, too easy.
The link worked fine btw.
brendon, you are a creep.
Hey Nick,
I was the most like Ference.
However, when I deliberately answered the questions the exact opposite of how I really felt, I ended up being Marshand. Which means my personality is supposedly the least like him. That doesn't surprise me because he plays that sneaky, cheap shot style I hate even though he is a good player.
See who you end up being the least like. I am just curious.
recci
I wonder which Bruin Brendon would end up being the most like? And the least like?
Here's another test:
How well do you know the Bruins?

I forgot...Dennis Seidenberg is also a +7.
Should have Billy this Sunday also. Sounds like it'll be the best game of the year
Another very productive hockey party today. One more and we should be good
Maybe, just maybe a possible Reggie sighting
