Boston Bruins are on the verge of one of the biggest chokes in sports history

[Chado1]

There have been 162 NHL series where a team has taken a 3-0 lead...

14 of those 162 the losing team has come back to win 2 games...

5 of those 162 the losing team has come back to force a game 7...

Only 2 times in 162 has a team ever came back from 0-3 down to win a series...


It has only happened 3 times altogether in the history of sports where a team has came back from 0-3 down to win a series. Twice in the NHL and once in the MLB. The 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs. The 1975 new York Islanders. The 2004 Boston Red Sox.

So even though it has only happened 2 times in 162 NHL series and once in MLB. If you include all the MLB and NBA best of 7 series I wonder how many total series? I have a few Bruins fans buddies and I would prefer to play them instead of Philly anyway so I really hope they dont make history tomorrow night in the worst possible way by losing. Hasnt happened in 35 years in the NHL!!!

I will be rooting for the Bruins to bounceback and win tomorrow night for sure!!!

At least they wouldn't be the 1st in hockey to do it ... unlike those 2004 Yankees in baseball!

No doubt first is the worst..

What makes that even worse is no salary cap in baseball so Yankees bought a team of all stars for like a billion dollars and still choked more than any other team in sports which makes is like 100 times worse...man thats probably the most pathetic thing known to man still remember it like it was yesterday..

Here's why I want the Bruins to win tomorrow night:

1.) Habs were 5-1 against them in the regular season
2.) Bruins were the lowest scoring team in the league
3.) Their leading scorers Krecji and Sturm both out (dont know for how long though?)
4.) If Ovechkin and Crosby cant score on Halak how would the lowest scoring team in the league?

Why not Philly:

1.) More balanced offensive attack

Why Philly:

2.) Weak goatending

Should be a good one tomorrow...cant wait!!!

b's might win tomorrow, but honestly don't think they have much of a shot vs the habs with how they are playing. the bruins peaked pretty quickly in the playoffs, but think they have flattened out, and kreijci being out is killing them.

WHY Boston: I want to go to a game

None of it matters anyway because neither the 6, 7 or 8 Seed in the East will beat the 1 or 2 in the West. Sorry, i don't see it.
