It's weird that the Jets don't get any coverage on TSN in Canada.  Instead of BB's game with important playoff implications, we get to watch Boston play the Flyers in a pointless game.

that pointless game could keep Montreal on 4th place and lead to their glorious elimination by the Laughs... Er, leafs. 
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Montreal is locked into either fourth or fifth place, since they won't win another game for the rest of the regular season.  But the Leafs won't be able to eliminate anyone.  Goon-style hockey doesn't win playoff series.

they're what, 3-1 against Montreal this season?

But the last game is key. Whoever wins that carries the momentum.

Yeah, but that's to be expected.  Hockey coverage in the US runs on big-name teams, regardless of how competitive they are.  Boston and Philly are both big names.  In Canada, Canadian content is more important, except for the Leafs who are universally hated due to shitiness.

I'm surprised there's a team, let alone a Canadian team, that Neil holds in lower regard than the Canucks  :huh:

People still hate the Leafs more than the Jets.  Just because people like player-hating Beeb about his sports team, his pants and his choice in personal computers doesn't mean that they can overlook the evil heart of the Leafs.

Think of the Canucks as being Cassius to the Leafs Judas in the NHL Inferno.
