The biggest choke in NHL playoff history

[Lefty]

The Bruins were up 3 games to none over the Flyers and went on to lose the series. Not only were they up 3 games to none, they were up 3 to nothing in two of the games they lost, including tonight's game seven. The Bruin players are going to have a very long offseason. This will go down as the biggest choke in NHL playoff history. Ouch!

You could almost say top 3 recent chokes in the major sports.

1) Yankees Vs Red Sox 2004 ALCS
2) Oilers vs Bills 1993 AFC Playoffs
3) this choke job

You should have left your original post. The bRuins losing the last 4 games of this series does not equal what happened to the EVIL empire. Hockey is, well its hockey.

I wouldnt really call that a choke job, they just got beat because Justin Timberlake put his gum on David Tyree's helmet.
