And technically, I thought Crosby had two concussions back to back, which does multiply the severity.
Correct. Not every concussion is the same, hell I've been dealing with PCS for nearly 7 months now it sucks.

Edit: NVM, dumb question.

Should be interesting to see the hockey culture for Philly and NY.

I think Pronger will make it worth the watch.

Could that champions presentation take any longer? Watching MTL/TOR on GameCenter and both teams look pretty rusty

When you don't win one in 39 years you can take as long as you want. STFU and enjoy it! WOOOOO

That ceremony was pretty nice.

Bruins have looked a bit flat but, Marchand is looking good tonight.

Voracek gets the GWG in his Philly debut as the champion Bruins lose their opener.

Ha sorry I'm used to them I guess, I've already seen 4 of them in my lifetime and it's a short one at that. Maybe the Wings will make it 5 next year

I'm big Jimmy Howard fan, went to school together....i should say same school. I didn't know the guy and he graduated/left two years before i did. I was surprised how competitive he is considering he wears shell necklaces. He came across more as a surfer than hockey player.

High school or college? And I think it's the attitude of Lidstrom that really sets the mold for the rest of the team. So maybe that's what changed him but he was a warrior in college and probably had the greatest season in NCAA history in net. I knew from the get go this guy was unreal. Very Ryan Miller like

Red Wings get another solid win taking it 3-0 over the avs. Boy is this team great defensively. Lidstrom looks actually better and Ian White has really contributed well. Them and Chicago will really be a battle for the division this year
