Thoughts: 1) We will have our first Live Playoff Chat of the series Thursday at 1 p.m. Be there. Or else. 2) Somebody mentioned to me about Mr. Jacobs, you know, the Bruins owner who was probably the single most responsible person for giving you fans the finger during his… Read More →

When their first round was two games old, they looked exactly like what they had been for 48 games during… Read More →
