Hello there folks. I'll start by saying that im pretty sure that everyone else that has posted in this thread knows more about hockey than I do.
I moved to boston about five years ago. it took two years to become addicted to everything red sox, then one more to really be hooked on the pats. But, no matter how hard i try I can't get into either the celtics or the bruins. Of those two teams the Bruins clearly seem like the "better" team (and by better i mean if you put them on a baseball diamond and force them to do pushups the bruins would be able to do more). But I just can't get into the bruins. I've tried. It could be the sport I guess, but I don't have anything against hockey. Everything I hear about the bruins is that they are a strong, fast, skilled team, but it seems like the trap is used pretty often and quality of the games suffer. I could be wrong. I've only watched parts of maybe....6 or so games this season. In general it seems the bruins are fun against the west, and not as much fun against teams lik nj. I'm sure thats an over generalization, but that's my impression.
Again, I really could be wrong that the trap is the problem with the excitement of the game. But there is a problem. I'd like to be a fan, but it just isn't going to happen. I listen to the radio here; from the way Dale talks it sounds like the Bruins don't draw more than 12k on the average night.
okeeee im done. shrug shrug.
4 men on the ice! forwards cant skate backwards through the ice.
