No two teams have played in more games against each other - regular season and playoffs combined. NFL Jerseys Cyber Monday 2014 . Nor have any two teams met in as many Game 7s as the Montreal Canadiens and Boston Bruins eight - with the Bruins taking the most recent one last spring en route to a Stanley Cup win. Theres arguably no better rivalry in hockey than that of the Canadiens and Bruins - one that spans several decades. We pick the rivalry up in the early 1950s with one of the most famous goals in hockey history. In the very first Game 7 meeting between the two clubs, Maurice Rocket Richard returned to the ice from injury to score an iconic game-winner past Bruins goalie Sugar Jim Henry, sending the Habs to victory. The play also resulted in one of the most iconic photographs in the sports history - the handshake between a bloodied Richard and Henry after the game. There would be no handshakes three years later, when a clash between the two teams led to one of the scariest incidents in league history collectively identified as the Richard Riot. Bruins defenceman Hal Laycoes high-stick set Richard off on that infamous night in 1955, which led to linesman Cliff Thompson being knocked out cold on the ice, along with a suspension and subsequent riots that would be a part of Canadian history. The two teams won a combined 12 Stanley Cups in the 1960s and 1970s and met each other in the final in both 1977 and 1978. This period of supremacy was capped off in the 1979 semifinals with a two many men penalty and another famous goal. Guy Lafleurs notorious equalizer late in Game 7 came after the Don Cherry-coached Bruins were called for having seven players on the ice. With Yvon Lamberts OT winner, won the game and the series to advance to the Stanley Cup Final. Players such as the Bruins Cam Neely and the Canadiens Patrick Roy kept the rivalry strong throughout the 1980s and early 1990s and it has since picked up again in the last 10 years. In the 2002 post-season, the Bruins led the series 2-1 over the Canadiens that year before an elbow from Boston defenceman Kyle McLaren sent Montreals Richard Zednik to the hospital. The hit earned McLaren a suspension and helped swing the momentum in the conference quarter-final series the other way with Montreal went on to win 4-2. The teams met in the playoffs two years later with the rivalry kicking up a notch after an incident which the Bruins considered an embellishment on the part of Canadiensforward Mike Ribeiro. Boston was pressing for the tying goal late in Game 3 of their conference quarter-final series when Ribeiro fell to the ice with an apparent injury, one that the Bruins players accused him of faking afterwards when he was seen smiling on the bench. The latest episode of the rivalry occurred last year over a course of a couple of games. On Feb. 9, the teams met in a fight-filled affair that totaled 187 penalty minutes and saw a goalie fight between All-Stars Carey Price and Tim Thomas. A month later, Zdeno Chara put another spark into the rivalry with his hit on Max Pacioretty. One that sent the Habs forward into a stanchion, fracturing vertebrae in his neck and forcing him to miss the remainder of the regular season and playoffs. As luck would have it, the two teams met in the playoffs last season with the Bruins edging the Canadiens in the first round. Boston defenceman Andrew Ference did his part in adding fuel to the fire with an obscene hand gesture directed towards Canadiens fans after scoring a goal in Game 4 of the series. It never ends when it comes to Montreal and Boston. So our question to you is: What is the most memorable moment in the Bruins-Canadiens rivalry? As always, its Your! Call. Black Friday Jerseys .C. -- Kyle Busch apologized repeatedly Thursday for showing a "lack of judgment" in driving 128 miles per hour in a 45 m. nfl jerseys china .

[url=http://www.cheapnfljerseys2015.us.com/]jerseys from china . -- Kobe Bryant is back in practice with the Los Angeles Lakers, and even the five-time NBA champion gets a charge out of getting back to work. ABBOTSFORD, B.C. -- Fourteen games of professional hockey in Norway prepared Dov Grumet-Morris for a great return to the American Hockey League. The 29-year-old goalie made 21 saves as the San Antonio Rampage shut out the Abbotsford Heat 5-0 Friday night. Grumet-Morris signed with the Rampage three days ago after posting a 2.14 goals-against average and a .915 save percentage in 14 starts with Norways LĀ°renskog IK. "Its always nice when you introduce yourself to a team with a win," said Grumet-Morris, who earned his sixth career AHL shutout. "I know we lost the last couple games so from a team perspective it was good and from an individual perspective it was great." San Antonio (8-11-0) entered the game last in the AHL after back-to-back losses and the Heat (13-6-1) had just returned from a 6-1-0 road trip, so the one-sided rout came as a surprise to the 4,576 fans at the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre. "Obviously San Antonio didnt think (they were underdogs), and thats all that matters," said Abbotsford captain Quintin Laing. "They believed they could win this game and earned it. They outworked us. We got everything we deserved tonight, and it probably should have been worse. It was a humble experience for the team." Bracken Kearns led the way for the Rampage with a goal and two assists. Nolan Yonkman, Brian Sutherby, Bill Thomas, and Evan Barlow also scored for the Rampage. Colby Robak, Mark Cullen and Tyson Strachan had a pair of assists each. "We talked about being a greasy road team," said Rampage head coach Chuck Weber. "I thought we did a good job getting pucks in deep and being oppportunistic offensively. NBA Jerseys Black Friday. . "(The Heat) have one of the best records in the conference for a reason. We had to be ready for a big push from them." Leland Irving, fresh off being named the AHL player of the week, made 19 stops and was hooked twice in the game. "Both goalies worked and did what they could," said Abbotsford head coach Troy Ward. "They both made big saves but didnt play well in front of them." The winning goal came at 5:21 of the first. Yonkman took a pass from Kearns and one-timed a shot low to the stick side of Irving, giving the six-foot-six Rampage captain his first goal of the season. A power-play goal doubled the lead for the Rampage as Robaks point shot ricocheted off the end-boards right to Kearns, who backhanded the puck past Irving. Sutherbys first of the year made it 3-0 at 4:49 in the second, just after an Abbotsford penalty expired. A minute later Thomas finished off a 2-on-1 with Mark Cullen for his fifth of the year. Barlow scored his second of the year at 15:57, taking a feed from ex-Heat member Keith Seabrook one second after a power play ended. Abbotsford entered the game tied for first in the AHL on the strength of their road record, but dropped its home record to 2-4-1 this season. "A teams first game back after a long road trip can be a little bit of a struggle, so we know we didnt want to give them any hope early," said Weber. The two teams meet again at the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre on Sunday afternoon. "Theyre going to be (a tough team to play against) on Sunday," Seabrook said. "They wont be happy after that one." ' ' '
