Thornton should be scared....Montreal will dress someone his size in Laraque. Bruins suck, thanks for taking Ryder off our hands

Didn't see the fight, but glad to know we got a chance to knock some sense into Begin. Now we just need someone to go with that ***** komisarek, who wouldn't drop em with Lucic five or so times in the playoffs.

I'm not sure its bragging rights when a first place team gets taken 7 games in the playoffs by a team they swept during the season and was comprised of about half kids in their 1st or 2nd years who haven't even been alive as long as chris chellios has played in the NHL lol

Ok maybe just because it's early and I'm not in a fighting mood, but this is getting ridiculous. I will admit I'm a die-hard Bruins fan, but come on. The Habs dominated us during the regular season, and we gave them a big scare in the postseason. Looking at this game, 8-3 is a bad score to lose by, no matter who you're playing. However, Boston wasn't playing their starters, they had plenty of rookies trying to make the team like every other team in the preseason (not to menton Chara, Kobasew and Savard who weren't even playing). All I can say is I absolutely can't wait for these teams to meet in the regular season and, god willing, in the playoffs!

get ready for laraque!

Posted by Cid on Sep 24, 2008 at 6:40 PM agree

Someone his own size? Oh let me guess like that big 280lb oaf, Laraque? Too bad Thornton is only 6ft 205lbs. And Thornton has already kicked Laraque's ass once. lol.

Watch out don't let him wrestle you to the ground.... OH KNOWS it's big Georges....! lol.

8 to 3!!!!!!
