Game 16 and 17 Recaps THIS BLOG IS UNDER REVIEW

I didn't see game 16 because I had a friend's band's show, but that's never stopped me from recapping before.

The Bruins took heart from actually scoring in the previous game (a week ago as I type this) and went, well....

WIN!

(7-7-2)

p.s. I have an irrational hate for Jason Pominville. I don't know why, but I don't know why I should stop. Pominville, Population: Douchebag.

Then the Penguins (well, half of them anyhow) came to play on Tuesday, but the Bruins came to play even more. Hunwick scored even if the ref didn't believe it, and then that funny bounce was ridiculous. Here's a chatlog with friend of the blog Greg Nation about the game since I don't have time to write my usual stuff:

11:19 AM Greg: i was very impressed by whittman's and bitz's performance

last night

11:20 AM and of course, Tim Thomas wins the Tim Thomas award for last night

incredible goaltending

me: whitfield

Greg: hell fleury had some ridiculous saves too, but not enough

whitfield, yes, sorry

me: yeah, I hear that

11:21 AM most scary penguin when on the ice? Probably Staal

11:22 AM Greg: yeah we shut down crosby

11:24 AM me: Chara owned

we blocked so many damn shots

10-2 shots after the first

11:25 AM Greg: yeah our D did block a lot of shots

11:26 AM Morris had a huge game defensively, Wideman had that sick one-on-one where he deftly used his stick to break up the attack

11:27 AM me: Wideman also tripped over the blue-line right before that

he has breakdowns but when he's good he's pretty damn good

11:29 AM Greg: yeah, i thought we played pretty well

it was such a fast paced game, very fun to watch

me: you bet

Greg: and that crazy bounce that sent the puck off the post when thomas was out of net

then the diving thomas save to knock it out

me: that was INSANE

yeah

11:30 AM Greg: he has such a strong stick arm, people take shots with two hands on the stick and he just whaps their stick and puck out of the way with his one hand

like the recent habs game with 'big whiffer'

he just stopped the shot and shoved the puck back out with his stick hand

11:31 AM me: Thomas owns

3-0
WIN

(8-7-2)

GO BRUINS!
