Bottom line for me is that they are a better team than I had anticipated. Yes, I know it's the eastern conference finals but they are very solid thru all four lines and their passing (forward to forward) is some of the best I've seen this year. Couple that with Rask and they are just darn tuff. Granted last night was the first night we've shown up but this series is a tall order
It took Boston a little while to find their playoff footing, but once they dug into that Toronto series, they've been darned near their best. That Columbus team they dismantled wasn't exactly chopped liver, after all. And this Boston team playing at or near their best is VERY good indeed. They ripped off a couple of runs like this in the regular season too, so this really shouldn't be that surprising to anyone.
