Prepare for full on rage mode:

Ok so Boston ices the puck, and right as the whistle blows, Patrice Bergeron jumps on the ice for his line change. He should be sent back over the bench, since he wasn't on the ice for when the puck was iced, but the linesmen missed it and he wins the next 2 ensuing defensive zone draws.

Pierre notices and informs us all about it: "Look at this here EddyandDoc look at how the Bruins sneak 37 in black Patrice Bergeron as he takes his man off the ice on a line change! He's not supposed to be taking these faceoffs by rule that is just great coaching there!"

Then Doc says something, and 15 seconds later Pierre again....

"THAT'S JUST UNACCEPTABLE DOC THE LINESMEN CANNOT LET THAT HAPPEN THE BRUINS WINNING THOSE FACEOFFS COULD CHANGE THE COMPLEXION OF THE GAME. THAT CAN'T HAPPEN."

I THOUGHT IT WAS GREAT COACHING. MAKE UP YOUR (frank)ING MIND YOU (frank)ING (frank)

in basketball, don't they usually make ridiculous trades, like all the picks plus 1/2 their team for 3 guys from another team? seems that way some times.

This is why I enjoy the CBC broadcasts so much. They were saying that the guy Bergeron came on (Paille)for went off with an "equipment problem". They were ripping Paille for the whole penalty kill.

Basketball is next to impossible to change your teams fortune do to the ridiculous luxury cap structure(which the rich teams exploit). The one year the cap was in the 55 millions range, but the Lakers, Mavericks... had $100 million payrolls. Nuts'

I give Hinke a ton of credit for hitting the reset button in a very creative way. The team plays real hard and try's to win, but Hinke traded any player not part of the future and got back what he could.

- BulliesPhan87

Absolutely.

I hate how he knows stupid, trivial stuff, which he then shoves down our throats. I hate his glasses. I hate his bald head. I hate how he thinks he's the voice of reason and how he thinks he has the end all be all words of the wise. I hate his interviews. I hate how he tells grown men to "have fun out there". I hate how he interrupts the play by play commentary every 41 seconds. I hate how he says "Eddy en Doc". I hate how he calls superstar players by their numbers and jersey colors like we don't (frank)ing know who they are.

I hate Pierre McGuire.

But then the Habs scored and I forgot about everything
