Dr Paul - You could see this coming once the no suspension decision was issued. With that said, the Bs recent history of giving up early and late period goals continues to haunt them. Must take care of the home ice Monday and Wed.

I am shocked that he didn't get a game....I've been very impressed with the way the B's have contained Vancouver's speed, but they have paid foe seemingly every breakdown or turnover. Tonight's game is the series.

That was a brutal chicken **** hit.

Best B's effort since the days of Robert Gordon......

Can they possibly play like this for 3 more wins? Who the hell is this team in front of Smith tonight? Cheap shot on Horton changed the whole damn game!
Wednesday will be interesting....

Very impressive performance by the Bruins. I think weathering the storm in the first period after getting nothing on the 5 minute power play changed the game. Luongo has a habit of letting games like this get in his head, so it will be interesting if the B's can take advantage.

Good old-fashion a$$ kickin last nite. Loved the energy lwhich again will be needed in Game 4. Expect Horton will be out for a game or two, maybe remainder of series which will be a big loss for the Bs, but will hopefully serve as a rallying point as it did last nite.

Those timing hits can be vicious when mis-timed. Aaron Rome needs to take a lesson from someone like Nik Kronwall on how to plaster a guy legally. There was absolutely nothing legal about that hit. Horton had passed the puck about two seconds earlier. Rome should get games for that nonsense.

Rome gets four. I'd say five would have been more appropriate. Still, he's getting some Darren McCarty-Claude Lemieux treatment when these guys meet in the regular season next year.

Really he get 4 plus whatever Horton has to miss.

Good point, there are only four games left in the finals. Appropriate punishment, IMO.

I think that should be the rule for the regular season too. It's an eye for an eye type deal.
If someone should deliver a blatent cheap shot (regardless of blind side hit, slash, high stick, etc....). The offender should sit out for as long as the injured party is out plus whatever suspension is handed out.

Obviously we are talking about match penalty type hits (which really don't occur too many times a season).

That was a ridiculous and unnecessary hit and it looks like it woke the Bruins up.

It's not an equal sanction at all....the Bruins lose a first line forward who is far more valuable than this goon who is replaceable by any defenseman Vancouver
has.

They should take a roster spot from Vancouver so they dress one less guy to make it close to fair.....
