Towel has yet to be thrown. White flag also has not been seen waving. However, seed of doubt has been planted.

Heres looking to game 6. I'd like to see a game 7 just to see Vancouver squirm a lil bit. I think they have officially got H Sedin going though which doesn't bode well. Luongo hasn't looked like he can shutdown SJ, I'm taking a wait and see approach. Go Sharks.

FWIW I like our chances in game 5, even on the road.

We're wrapping it up tonight. It'll be nice to have a little rest and hopefully the Bolts can drag the series out a wee bit and wear those Bruins out.

San Jose got robbed and jobbed. That was a horrendous no call on the icing. Should have been heading back to Jose with a 2-1 loss in the books. Linesman handed that game to them. Honestly i didn't see Vancouver losing three straight, and had them winning it all from the beginning, but SJ was absolutely robbed last night.

While SJ simply did not have a good series, I agree that they got screwed over last night. What a strange OT goal as well. Canucks got very lucky last night, but not in the series overall.

Big game tonight. B's have to show that killer instinct.

I had no clue it went in and was surprised when they started to celebrate. What a weird fluttering dead duck shot. Niemi must have had his head up his ass, because that was a very weak point shot. Tampa has been a much better opponent than most gave them credit for. Should be a really good game, the playoffs have been outstanding this year regardless of the one bad no call last night. Congrats to Vancouver its been 17 years. They have a tremendous squad as does San Jose.

And the "choke" label lives on for another season. Can't wait for that small disfigured pulp of a dead horse to be beat again for 12 more months.

Congrats to Laces Out Dan!. Good luck in the finals, I'll be pulling for your team if you match up against Boston. It's too bad the series didn't live up to the epic matchup proportions- game 5 did, and that's exactly how games 1-4 (and 6 or 7*) were supposed to be.

Tough breaks with the icing call for the tie, and a once in a lifetime bounce off the boards to setup the game winner. Safe to say championship teams always have a few bounces go in their favor along the way, and it looks like the Nucks had them while the Sharks couldn't get that "break" they needed.

Besides the Sabres series last year I don't remember a Bruins series that didn't go either 4 or 7 games. I think it was New Jersey almost 10 years ago.

At least they get a 7th game at home. Tampa Bay is much better then people gave them credit for.
