Listen, before i go any further I want to say that I have a very basic understanding of hockey and I'm really not a huge fan of the sport. I consider myself an expert in many things, such as: Working at Grocery Stores, Watching TV, and Talking about the Big 3 sports. However, hockey would be towards the bottom of my expertise list, somewhere below Organic Chemistry yet slightly above the Female Reproductive System. But anyway, I've noticed recently that Bruins fans have been constantly complaining about lack of production on the powerplay. Yup, that's right, the B's are 8-1-1 atop the Eastern Conference and people are complaining. I guess that's Boston for ya. But my problem with it is that the Bruins won the goddamn Cup in 2011 while having poor powerplay. So not only have they done this shit before, but the players from that team have built much more chemistry and are still barely in their prime. Do people know Tyler Seguin is just 21? Did you know Patrice Bergeron is only 27 even though it seems like he's been on the team since Viet fuckin Nam? Chara is only the best defenseman in the game, too. Oh and that alien looking motherfucker in the net is pretty decent. How bout a little Marchmont and Lucic (both mid 20's) and you got yourself one hell of a dynasty. Plus, all these players are locked up on good contracts that don't jeopardize the teams financial standing. So, all im saying is lets take a deep breath about the powerplay and just enjoy the best era of Bruins hockey we're all probably ever going to see. This is Boston. We're gonna have plenty of shit to complain about.
Cool. I think this just about meets my hockey quota for the year!
Well Said
