Yes, they're not that bad either, smarty, they're ranked 7th in the power rankings.
Not to go too off-topic
Actually, yes, to do exactly that-- they're looking really solid this year, and should be good for the next several. It's a good time to be a Boston hockey fan.
Stupid is as stupid does
Is this worse then killing a kid for a pair of shoes or a phone?
