1st Round: Pittsburgh Penguins vs Philadelphia Flyers

[Ravin]

So does anyone else need to know again why I fucking hate Malkin?

I think they need to split that line up now. Can't fuck around waiting for them to start scoring. Put Crosby on that line, throw Malkin back. Kunitz seems to be the only guy on that line giving a fuck.

I haven't been able to watch either game but scoring isn't the issue for the Pens, obviously, it's D and goaltending.

If they don't decide to start playing defence, they might as well just pack it in. This is a team that won 11 straigh, was dominating down the stretch, and now they seem to want to play Washington Capitals hockey and just try and out score the Flyers. Bad turnovers, costly short handed goals, and multiple mistakes by defence is killing us, and I will be the first to say, if we don't play defence, we don't deserve to win the series period.

You Canadians and your silly spellings.

0 goals from Hartnell/Simmonds/Read in either game, I expect that to change today.

 

[Slateman]

Turn on NBC to see the fights. Looks like a game of hockey might break out

 

[wingsfan77]

How the Penguins get a PP out of the scrums with Giroux/Crosby and Letang/Timmonen doesn't surprise me at all. Asham should see a lengthy suspension for that shit but I doubt he will since Weber got nothing.

 

[killgod]

4 more goals. fucking lolz.

 

[Slateman]

More goals than a shootout

 

[leaffan]

Bryzgalof is god awful.

 

[wingsfan77]

Bryzgalof is god awful.

And Fleury's been even worse

 

[leaffan]

And Fleury's been even worse

Yeah no... lol

 

[Woy]

Congrats on your sweep, Philly.

What an embarrassing and baffling implosion.

 

[wingsfan77]

Yeah no... lol

Please, Bryzgalov made some HUGE saves in games 1 and 2, plus Fleury's let in more soft goals so far.

 

[wingsfan77]

If the Flyers go up early on Wednesday it could get real ugly. If Neal isn't suspended someone needs to go after him.

:rofl:

 

[leaffan]

The pens PK is really really bad right now and I've seen some bad pk's lol :smug:

"Hockey is a tough, physical game, and it always should be," said Lemieux, the Penguins co-owner. "But what happened Friday night on Long Island wasn't hockey. It was a travesty. It was painful to watch the game I love turn into a sideshow like that."


"We, as a league, must do a better job of protecting the integrity of the game and the safety of our players," the Hockey Hall of Famer said in his statement. "We must make it clear that those kinds of actions will not be tolerated and will be met with meaningful disciplinary action.

Quote from Mario last year, wonder what he has to say about all of the cheap shots by the Penguins today.

 

[killgod]

probably nothing, pens organization are hypocrites since these complaints have started. their organization is no different than the ones they complain about. im not saying they are worse (although I believe it can be argued..), but they have no right to act as if they are above it.

 

[Boss AZ]

Are we really implying that Fleury is having a better series than Bryz? :yao:
