Tonight is the anticipated rematch bewteen these to teams sicne Marc Savard recieved a concussion from Matt Cooke. It should be WW3 but I doubt it'll turn into that.

I doubt it either... The Bruins Head Coach Julien said that the Bruins will not be about retaliation tonight, but rather they need to focus on the game and get the 2 points to stay alive in the play-off race. With all the NHL officials on hand tonight to make sure things don't turn ugly, the only way I see Boston getting dirty is if they are down in the 3rd period with a 2-3 goal difference.

I think that Boston needs to keep their head on straight, because after last nights "lack" of performance by the Penguins, they have a very good shot at beating them. What is up with the Penguins??? The fire is gone. The only 3 people that are playing consistent since the olympic break are Crosby, Dupuis, and Johnson. I'm sorry, but Malkin needs a bottle to go with that whine he has... He skated all of 15 seconds before the New Jersey game and said he couldn't go. Is his foot broke??? You are getting paid millions to whine like a baby and flat out SUCK on the ice. I swear if I see him weave through defensemen one more time, go the the left side of the cage and then just shoot it around the boards I am going to scream. Fleury is on my last nerve too... How can you make all those near-impossible saves, but let the routine ground balls through? How many shut-outs do you have this year? The number of times he has been yanked and replaced with Johnson exceeds the number of his shut-outs. If he continues his poor play through the play-offs its time to start looking for a new net-minder. When he is on, he is one of the best around, when he isn't, its bad... Hopefully the Pens get their heads right tonight, come out and destroy this Bruins team... They just need to be careful if they get a lead because the Bruins will start getting dirty.

They should try to end Crosby's life tonight, but I think they'll pull the pussy act and say the game means too much to risk penalties.

is this game on versus?

Nope. Only regional......

that sucks........... oh well, there is a lot of good basketball on anyways

Well I don't understand this comment at all, why would you attack Crosby from something Cooke did? The Bruins got it out of the way with Cooke early on, the fans were satisfied... The Bruins gave the Pens a power play and then they also got beat 3-0. Good show by the Bruins... But a better one by the Pens

What went down with Cooke at the beginning was absolutely retarded. Thorton bumps him, they drop gloves, no good hits, over in 5 seconds. Stupid. They should have done nothing at all.

The Bruins just suck this year. The only consistent forward for them all year is Patrice Bergeron. But yeah what I was expecting didn't happen at all and it was good to see Rupp get into a scrap with Chara.

The icing on the cake would have been a Cooke hat trick

Cooke takes out one of Boston's stars, and they want to take out Cooke??? Not equal. Cooke is not a star.....

An eye for an eye says you take out Crosby......

^^ Wrong. Let's go back 14 years to Claude Lemieux cheap shotting Kris Draper and breaking his jaw and ending his season. Would it have been right for Darren McCarty the following season to go after Joe Sakic instead of Lemieux? No. You don't go after someone not involved with the Cooke hit. He and everyone else knew he was a target last night. Got in a fight, got pummeled, and that was it. That's hockey.

I was only 5 or 6 when that happened but, youtube is great to watch this brawl. Whenever I watch it I laugh when Roy comes out and gets tackled by Shannahan.

^^ I was watching that game live and I was 11 and was just stunned and cheering the whole game. Everyone forgets that game was a really good game that went to OT before McCarty of all people scored the winner.

And BOS is w/out a goal scorer and Cooke took a couple punches. How's that even???? Cheap shot my star and I'm comin' after yours......

What's the incentive for Cooke not to do this again??? He didn't get suspended, didn't get injured. His team is still feeling fine while BOS is w/out a huge piece and trying to find a way to make the playoffs....

Dont pay no mind to strap-on. He's just a two bit street punk that is jealous of the success of the Pittsburgh's sports teams.

Hehe. Here comes Crapon, internet stalker. What, are all the little boys inside now that it's dark so you've no one to prey on but me???

It's the big leagues strap-on. If the multimillionaires cant handle it, they can go play for the Nailers.

Just shut your yapper! You're just pissed because the Pens owned your shit ass Sabres this year.

Even with Savard the team couldn't score, and who's the leading scorer for the Sabres? Pominville? Connolly? Roy? You guys are paying Vanek 7.2mil a year and he only scores what 60 some points a year?

What does this have to do w/ Buffalo again??? Nothing??? Oh, okay. I'm just telling you if I were the Bruins I'd do more than make Cooke fight one time.....

If you don't agree, Tough Shit. It's my opinion....

Maybe every American Hockey Player should fight Ryan Miller or cheap shot his ass for blowing the Olympics? Thats just my opinion.

Good one......

^^^^^Shut the "F" up. You're a jealous hater!
