Back to Vancouver for game 5. I hope that they get their collective heads out of their asses and remember to play hockey again. Luongo also needs to remember to STOP the pucks from going in. I swear, why does he have these meltdowns when they are least needed?

Of all the stuff to notice in the "bullcrap" category, you mention ONLY Marchand? What do you have to say about the bullcrap Burrows pulled at the end, when he knocked Tim Thomas' stick out of his hand while waiting for the faceoff? There's over-the-top physical play, like Marchand's (note "over-the-top" before you accuse me of excusing it), and then there's bush-league shit like what Burrows did. It reminded me of when Alex Rodriguez tried to slap the ball out of Jonathan Papelbon's glove as they raced for first base.
