He is talking about the number of arguments he had with his mom while living with her in his youth hockey days. He wanted to chill with the homies, mom had other ideas. One time they fought three times during one "period".
I agree that the Bruins are ****s and the reality is all their talk is about trying to get teams to stand up to them and play their game. Nobody has a chance if they want to fight back after every whistle and stand up to everything they do, they know that. However it would be nice to have a few guys that could be an intimidating presence but still be able to play a little hockey. I would love to have a guy like Jordin Tootoo on this team, a career 15-20 point guy although he already has 20 points this season, and he is physical, can skate and can throw. We need a few guys that can come out bump some bodies and give an energy shift in their 7-8 minutes.
Bieska could knock anyone of those guys out...minus chara cause he has ape arms.
Canucks dont need to fight draw penalties and score on powerplay.
Chris Neil is what they need....can throw the body and can play!

But since Ottawa is making the playoffs I don't see Neil being moved. But a Neil-esque player would be nice.

And also Two-Two's gf is a former Vancouver barstar/server who's family lives here...maybe we can coax her into sweet-talking him to move here from Memphis?
Well Bruins logic is ass backwards so I figured you'd want your name the same so you could understand me

Marchand you dirty cheap shot son of a bitch! What a fcuking rat bast...............wait a minute. Is it just me or is Marchand actually explaining what really happened? He's going to bat for Dale Weise. WTF? This is confusing behavior for Marchand, and frankly, I don't like it.

Wow, Marchand is really doing a number on a lot of you Vancouver fans. 
I wish that was me getting pinched... I'll take Seguin's paycheque thanks...
I'm not going to drag this into a pissing war, not my intent in standing up for the Bruins. And of course I'm a fan; thought that was clear from the SCF thread last year. Apologies if it wasnt, I certainly wasnt trying to hide in the weeds on that. And I'm also not going to call any of you "anus lickers", or imply that you perform fellatio on members of the Canucks. I thought we just lost the youth soccer discussion on here for that type of stuff, but I could be wrong.
Also wasnt trying to suggest the Bruins are angels. For the record, I dont agree with the company line that Marchand's hit was legit. You never see guys duck in hockey, which means Salo cant be expected to see it coming - which is exactly why he lands on his head and gets hurt. So its a dirty play, and as a repeat offender he's full value for the five games. And no, not all the post-whistle stuff is in direct response to anything a Bruins opponent has done, and the videos posted show that the Bruins are no more immune to embellishing than most other teams.
That said, its a bit much when Mason Raymond and Dan Hamhuis go just as low on Bruins in the SCF, Vancouver fan cheers their head off for those, and then wants Marchand strung up when he does it to their boy. Either its a dirty hit or its not, pick your horse and stick with it.
The Canucks are the proverbial schoolyard shithead that runs around at recess ****ing with everybody. Then, when his classmates have had enough, he runs to the principal and whines "they're chasing me"... Only, one day the principal is off banging the substitute teacher, and the shithead gets his ass handed to him. The fact that the Bruins took the odd detour on their road to the Cup to call the Canucks on their bullshit is something I will not apologize for in the slightest. To me, "dirty" is the shite-disturber, not the guy that says fcuk off...
Re Bieksa - I would guess that he could hold his own against any of those three - except maybe McQuaid - I say guess because of how long its been since he fought anyone at or above his own weight class...
I dont see hiding your starting goalie, ducking a couple of fights, and whining your way in and out of town as "standing up" to the Bruins. They took full advantage of more powerplays than a team gets in a playoff series, and snuck out of town with a one goal win. If that makes them feel like they slayed Goliath, yippee for them.
Me? I'm not bothered. Say what you want about the Bruins. Shawn Thornton has his name on the Cup twice. Brad Marchand got his name on it in his rookie year. The Cup currently resides in Boston, thanks to a triumph over the Vancouver Canucks in a series that most people in this city had over in four the other way. Bothered... How could I be better?

Count me as one of those Canucks fans that doesn’t entirely like the make-up of our squad. I don’t like the taunt and turtle element that has become commonplace on our squad. With Burrows, I’m OK w/ it for his production, and it serves a purpose on that line. But, with Kessler, he proved last year that the play between the whistles w/ out the trash worked wonders for his focus and game. I really wish Laperiere was a better fighter, because I like his game otherwise.
That said, I don’t think I’d make too many changes, but consider this: if the Bruins were to offer Marchant straight-up for Mason Raymond, would you take it? You’d be nuts not to. You’d definitely need to make other changes then, though…because the ‘Nucks would be even more hated.
Lucic is a rare breed, and a player like him comes along once in a blue moon, and remember…he wasn’t supposed to even make the show, which is what makes him such a special player. A special as the Sedins, I might add…who have developed their game beyond what anybody except maybe Brian Burke would have imagined.
What I’d love to see is the ‘Nucks make a run at acquiring Jerome Iginla as a rental player for this off-season…a la Colorado acquiring Ray Bourque for his final two seasons. Jerome is well past his prime, but he is the type of player that can summon it for a chance to hoist the cup. He’d be a daemon for those 3.5 months, and add a much needed element of toughness on the 2nd line.
Loving the player Cody Hodgson is developing into, and I think he’ll just keep getting better. He does not look out of place at all on the second line, and I think that line could be even better w/ Kessler out wide and Cody in the centre spot.
Just give me a player like Iginla to take Raymond’s spot for the playoffs, and one fourth liner of the “tougher” variety (Byron Bitts???), and I think the team is set to go.

There is a reason why he hasn't fought in a while. He has no takers. He is an excellent fighter, but at the same time, if I'm the coach, no way I want one of my top two d pairing getting in fights on any sort of a regular basis.
That said...not sure he'd beat Lucic or McQuaid, but pretty sure he'd pummel Thornton.
