Re: crossposted: Bruins chance to win Stanley Cup?
[ QUOTE ]
This would be a good bet if the Bruins had a better goalie. In order for them to win the Cup, they need a goalie to carry them to the Finals.
They don't have one good enough, and they won't be able to pick one up at the Trade deadline. Save your money.

Exactly right. No, Truth, I haven't watched the Bruins in a while - I do get Center Ice but haven't been using it lately, and the Bruins are about the last team I would choose to watch anyway. Zurvan is correct in saying that if the Bruins were to have a better chance, they should have a worse team and better goalie - I would never trust Tim Thomas in a pivotal game.
And while a 1 seed seems to lose to an 8 every year, that 8 seed rarely advances much farther.
