Official NHL Thread: 2011-2012 Season

[pleasepassthesoup]

That series was phenomenal and the game was outstanding. As always, it's a lot more fun to be in Boston when their teams lose than when they win.

Not to say that those dynasties weren't amazing, but back then there were less teams and less talent. Virtually no European players in the NHL back in the 70s/80s.

Honestly, with the salary cap, free agency, and more teams, I'd consider something like 3 in 5 to be as impressive as the 70's/80's dynasties.

There were what, 3 dynasties in a row in the 70'/80's?

Good. These racist scumbags are giving good hockey fans a bad name. Sure most of them just got done watching their first 7 games since last June.

Montreal Canadiens won 6 in the 1970s and the New York Islanders and Edmonton Oilers won four each in the 1980s.

The old joke is, Boston is a North East city that should be in the South....

That's pretty sad and pathetic. My father went to Northeastern University on a scholarship in the early 70's. Being new to Boston- and the country for that matter- he never experienced any kind of racism until he got to the Noetheastern campus. He was so disgusted about the treatment he got that he coudln't wait to leave. with the scholarship he had he was able to transfer to certain schools. So he wound up transferring to NYU after his 1st year.

He swore he would never go back to Boston, and to this day he hasn't. Reading some of those comments just reminded me of the things people called my father back then.

Kudos to the Bruins organization for condemning those comments.
