I am relieved that the Habs will be back in Boston...they will stop playing wide-open hockey to impress the home crowd, and get back to playing Martin's system that served them so well in games 1 and 2.
Right before the Bruins brought it down the ice, I turned to my friend and said "WTF are they doing with two forecheckers deep? They should have one man in and four in the neutral zone so the Bruins can't come back with any speed!" A few seconds later, it's a tied game. They are too aggressive and offense-minded at home...they need to correct that.

wide open? they stopped competing with a two goal lead and when they went up by one in third with 18 mins to go. They didn't impress anyone.
Retarded strategy.
Keep using your speed and suffocate the bruins would have impressed me. Play to win not, not to lose.
