Thornton made a great pass that led to the Setoguchi goal on the first period power play. (Speaking of Setoguchi, he's one of the least likeable guys going from an opposition fan standpoint. No idea why, the man just grates on you.) That being said, he has a long and storied career of diving and other assorted gutless plays.

I have a hard time rooting for the Sharks, though the number one reason why has to be Dany Heatley, who makes me wish Claude Lemieux were still around.

Tampa owned the Bruins last night. They are on a big time roll right now.

Wonder if the cheap shot at the end of the game will set the tone for the rest of the series.......

Should be a good one tonight.

Goaltending has not been great, but save Chara, both defenses have been awful with the puck and both goalies have had to face continual odd man rushes because of turnovers. Not entirely their fault, but it should be another high scoring affair.

Goaltending - Boston
Defense - Boston
Offense - Tampa
Special Teams - Tampa
Coaching - Tampa
Home Ice - Boston

Winner - Boston

Is that coaching or choking that you give the edge to Tampa?

What's wrong with Bergenheim? I love the "undisclosed upper body injury". Whatever the hell it is, put some ice on it and get back out there.

Undisclosed upper body injury generally means concussion. If he wants to be speaking clearly in 20 years, Bergenheim best sit this one out.

Thank you for your spell check.

Not that it matters, but it is "lower body". Rumor is it is a groin strain, which is not a good one if you have to make a living moving and changing directions quickly on skates. Either upper or lower, he is not playing tonight.

My favorite "lower body" was the Nick Lidstrom injury of the 2009 playoffs. I'm in pain just thinking about it.

Wow, what a first period. Then again the whole series has been this good.
