Go Pens! End this annoying series.
(Yes, I expect my "point" total to drop!)
Game 7 would make for a hell of an exciting game and atmosphere...I'll take them winning it here and save me some years on my life, though!
Pens are a shell of what thye used to be.
Malkin laughs at your assessment.
Not sure how well his algorithm holds for the NHL, but it is interesting all the same...
Team | Standing | Pred. Score | Pred. Win. Prob. |
Pittsburgh | # 6 (54-33) | 3 | 49% |
@ Columbus | # 10 (45-42) | 3 | 49% |
San Jose | # 5 (54-33) | 2 | 44% |
@ Los Angeles | # 9 (48-39) | 3 | 54% |
Colorado | # 4 (55-32) | 2 | 43% |
@ Minnesota | # 14 (45-42) | 3 | 55% |
Probably the best I've seen the Pens play in a few months, scary for the East (including Boston) if they put it together now
Crazy how good they are when they actually give a shit and don't expect teams to just bow down to them, eh?
Game 5 and this game has been the best they've played in a long time.
They weren't the same once Sutter and Vitale got hurt. They had to break up the Malkin/Crosby/Kunitz line.
My god, the pens are unraveling!
Not sure what the hell happened there...I come back from missing 5-10 minutes (saw the first goal, shorthanded) and it's 4-3. Damn. These guys need to start playing 60 minutes of eff'n hockey.
Wow, thought CBJ was going to tie that thing. Quite impressive effort from the team and the crowd.
Yeah, hopefully Sutter and Vitale aren't seriously injured. If they miss the next yound Pittsburgh is in trouble regardless of if it is Philly or the Rangers.
CBJ showed heart, man. Gotta take pride in the first two playoff wins in franchise history.

What a disaster going with Stalock. San Jose needed a win and Niemi should have been the guy.

It went through his legs and behind him into the crease. He never covered it.
He played well, but not good enough for a playoff game. Those weren't soft goals, but you don't advance in the playoffs without a goalie who can make those saves.
