Running Diary of Bruins vs. Canadians and Red Sox vs. Yankees (game 3s)

7:05 Kessel is a healthy scratch again. WTF?! I know he may be a defensive liability but the B’s need people out there who can score as well.
7:08 Rene Rancourt is the man: Great job with both anthems to set the mood.
7:13 Bruins and the fans seem amped; energy results in B’s getting first Power Play
7:14 Bullshit boarding call on Lucic negates P.P. I guess the refs did not get my memo that it is the playoffs and they should eat their fucking whistles
7:15 as expected the Montreal Fans are pulling a Red Sox fans at the garden and are loudly rooting for their team and booing Chara
7:20 Savard hits Lucic in the slot who shoots my favorite type of shot in hockey (wrist shot to top corner blocker side) GOAL! Bruins Lead 1-0. A “sad but true” fact this is the first time the B’s have had the lead against Montreal all year. (random other fact: “sad but true” is the name of a pretty good Metallica song)
7:23 Sturm gets stopped trying to go blocker side with the back hand on a break away. Damn It!
7:26 Tripping call on Ward. This one was more legit then the one on Lucic  earlier
7:28 Bruins kill of power play and do a good job of keeping Montreal on the perimitar
7:32 Thomas almost slips and lets a sliding puck in the net ala EA’s NHL 93
7:34 A highlight package seems to show that Montreal is targing Savard’s injured back. The B’s need to fuck some Canadians up in response to this.
7:36 That’s what I am talking about; Lucic puts big hit on Komisarek
7:37 Jerry Remy looks almost superimposed into that Jordan’s commercial
7:41 Last few minutes Montreal has been carrying the play
7:44 First Period over and it was a good one for the B’s Wait! Fight! Hnidy vs. Latendresse ; ends up being a kinda a stalemate but I would give the win to Hnidy for throwing more punches.
7:45 Time to eat some bread and butter, drink a Pepsi until the 2nd period and the Sox start.
 8:00 Interesting Intermission fun fact; Bruins vs. Canadians match up has happened more times then any other pro-sport playoff match up.
8:04 Murray tips good scoring chance wide. Glen aint what he used to be. (subtle Simpsons reference)
8:10 Bruins fuck up and lose the puck behind their own net which leads to goal by Brian fucking Smolinski. Former Bruins always seem to score on us in the playoffs.
8:13 Montreal fans start their oolay oolay chant
8:16 Damon stole a buse 1 out runner on second
8:17 P.J. gets checked off of rebound when he might have had an open net
8:18 Chara huge hit on Kostopoulos
8:19 Lucic can’t score after great pass by Savard.
8:20 Dice-K gets out of inning
8:23 Jacoby works a walk. Come on my fantasy team needs a steal to tie that category for the week.
8:25 booyaa. Jacoby gets a steal and reaches third on an error
8:29 Bruins have no sustained pressure on their power play
8:34 Bruins almost pick pocket Price for a scoring chance
8:35 Manny being Manny again. RBI single 1-0 Sox
8:36 Sack Fly for Yoooouuuuuk
8:37 Second period over. Montreal is playing better then the B’s right now
8:38 Sean “great value signing” Casey hits ground rule double
8:40 Hughes has thrown 110 pitches this inning; Yankees already have guy warming up
8:42 Wild Pitch Manny scores 3-0
8:43 Tek strikes out on close call
8:56 Montreal fans are singing again after penalty on Ward
8:58 Dice K out of inning after lead of walk
9:02 Crisp increases his trade value by beating out bunt single
9:03 Crisp, Lugo, Ellsbury hitting back, to back, to back. Fastest trio in Sox history?
9:09 Montreal on power play
9:11 Bruins kill off pp and then break out with a 2 on one, but Krejci gets stopped by Price
9:13 Joe Morgan admits he does not know anything. True Story, he said this.
9:15 Damon gets second steal of the game
9:16 Bruins fail to score on anemic pp.
9:23 lots of back and forth action with B’s and Montreal and somehow the Yankees got a run; now 3-1 Sox.
9:28 Montreal almost scores; that would have sucked
9:29 here we go again, Sudden Death Overtime
9:30 Yoooouuuuk singles to score Drew 4-1 (remember when Drreewww Bledsoe used to get the Yooooouuuuk treatment?)
9:34 Hughes out after only 2+ and throwing 244 pitches. In the words of Nelson, haha.
9:42 Another wild pitch, 6-1
9:45 Jacoby singles 7-1
9:47 Puck drops for OT
9:50 Huge save by Thomas on a presumed Greek Dude Kostopoulos
9:51 Schaefer gets high sticked and no call; now the refs decide to eat their whistle, good timing guys.
9:52 Thomas gets another good save on a deflection
9:54 Thomas comes up big again by grabbing puck out of mid-air after flurry in front of the net.
9:57 7-2 Yankees are being patient with Dice-K who is not hitting his spots tonight.
9:58 so far Montreal has had all the scoring chances in OT
10:01 FUCK YEAH! Bruins have an odd man rush witch results in delayed penalty, the extra skater is on and Savard gets the puck in the slot with a lot of space to shoot and drills it into the back of the net! We have ourselves a playoff series people.
10:07 Dice-K still shaky with control; sac fly makes it 7-4
10:17 Manny jumps 4 feet when change up comes near him; funny shit.
10:19 Joe Morgan says the word “hands” 50 times in 10 seconds.
10:20 damn it Tek hits into double play with basis loaded.
10:31 Dice-k’s 6th walk is followed by Posada single.
10:35 Giambi flies out and Dice-K gets through 5.
10:45 If there is a female in the room when that Needham Bank commercial with the 2 cute kids comes on, they will say they like the commercial or the kids are cute; my sister is no exception tonight.
10:55 Aardsma can’t find the plate, ugggg.
10:57 but manages to get threw the inning unscathed.
11:03 Pedroia gets thrown out at second and is heard screaming Safe! And then No!
11:07 Aardsma goes 1,2,3, in the 7th. Great Job new random 2008 season middle relief Dude !
11:27 fucking growth hormone Giambi hits one out off Timlin
11:30 Timlin out after 2 more hits. Mike has not been good in his 2 appearances since coming back from the DL.
11:35 Javy Lopez the pitcher not the former catcher who was on HGH with the Braves in the 90s and who Maddux never wanted to pitch to get a huge DP and then another out to end the inning.
11:46 Those running Red Sox. Crisp steals base, advances to 3rd on a sac fly, then gets a run on a sac fly. Good job getting the insurance run guys.
11:51 Pedroia steals a base.
11:55 The crawl showed Kapler got 3 hits today including his 4th HR today for the Brew Crew. He also managed a single A team to a victory and shot a commercial for GNC.
12:02 Boooyaaa Delcarmen K’s A-Rod
12:06 Delcarmen gets Matsui who has been a tough out all night to end the game. Great job by the Sox pen considering that Oki and Pap where not available. Props the B’s for making this a series and winning the game tonight. Go old friend Jumbo Joe Thornton and the Sharks who are currently 3-3 in the third vs. the Flames.
12:12 Curtis Joseph is in net for the Flames!?! Who knew he was still in the league? Dude must be 50 years old by now. Upon doing some research Joseph is 41 in 2 weeks. On that note, good night everybody.
