I just want the Pens to come out and play proper hockey tomorrow, win or lose. I'd rather this series go seven and have four 2 - 1 games than have us win 6 - 5 over the next two.

We have to change the bad habits right the f now or we won't make it out of the second round.

You have to make it out of the first round before you get to the second round

OK, last post tonight I promise

Penalty. Definitely. Cry all you want.

I'm just amazed anybody can watch Strait reach out an grab Sid with not one, BUT TWO hands and not see that's an obvious hold on a good scoring chance.

Nuf' said. Closed casket.

I hope we beat them good next game...

Any word on whether or not the return to practice has any hope of returning to thd line up tomorrow for 44 and/or 18?

The only thing I read was both participated in all of the drills. That's got to be a positive......who knows if that means they'll dress tomorrow.

That Backstrom-ovi line can not play defense.

This just in! Another superstar just got a favorable call in New York, and it wasn't Crosby!!!!!!!!!

Good to hear it.

The Leafs got pounded tonight: 5-2. Unfortunately.

Ovi?

gotta have Ottawa win their series.

Ottawa shouldn't be taken lightly by any means, they're a good team, but avoiding boston/Toronto and NYR/Washington would be lovely.

Ovi?
- Orpik44

Yeah, it was priceless. Crosby was positively mugged compared to the call Ovi just bought....with under 2:00 to play in the 3rd...but the Rags killed it and won 4-3.

Yea I saw that.

But Mcdonaugh (sp?) walked around ovi on the blue line to keep it in the zone and helped set up a nice goal. Backstrom was no where to be found either.

Not sure what the outrage is over. Richards high sticked him. Why is his stick there? Careless play.

don't you know? apparently, if it is late in a game or in overtime, anything goes... must be a New York thing.

good game alert.

DET v. ANA

Neal, Orpik still out there. Orpik looks especially strong. Will be surprised if he doesn't play Game 4, but that's just me. #Pens #TribHKY
- Killian

That would be such welcomed news!

Plus Neal skating is a good sign as well.

Let me tell you something pal shocker as it may be to you I wouldn't want Crosby on my team. I don't like players like him. I don't give a shat I'd tell you if I'd want him on my team. I wouldn't be ashamed. I'd gladly take Kunitz on my team any day but for the most part I don't like your team. Just being honest. It's not because they are good it's because they have a sense of entitlement and to me they are a bunch of primadonnas that the NHL caters too. That show on HBO just furthered that opinion for me. The arrogance is ridiculous. Don't give me the , "that comes with being good" crap. How about a little humility instead of being an arrogant twit? Has nothing to do with the series. Believe me I think you guys have an incredible team and you have to respect that but that's where it ends for me. Just my opinion. I liked the Pens when you had Jagr, Mario,the samulesons, Francis. This team I just don't like. Any of them to the point I don't even want Inginla to win a cup! lol. To all of you guys on this thread most of you are pretty cool even though you like the Pens besides this dude I'm chatting with of course! lol. I'll do my best to stay off here bcs this obviously isn't working out! BTW, Crosby is still crying to the refs ,you just can't see his mouth moving or the tears coming down with his new helmet jk

Every single person that claims this would be the first one to get a Crosby jersey if he actually went to their favorite team. And if you don't want the best player in the world on your team then it shows how truly foolish and blinded you are.

As far as the penalty is concerned, a penalty in the first period should be a penalty in OT. When you throw your hands up in the air it's usually a dead giveaway that you did something illegal. The Islanders were fortunate to get in OT in the first place considering the Pens clanged two pucks off the post.

That would be such welcomed news!

getting both back would be huge because that bump Iginla to play with Crosby... can only hope.

"pal shocker"?? how dumb. Jelousy..

Sure, but when it doesn't come then what do you do? JT has gotten his a$$ handed to him and kudos to the Pens for doing so. That's what you do to a player of his caliber in the playoffs, do everything you can to shut him down. Whats good for JT is good for Cindy.
- Cptmjl

Wow Capt, really?

Don't eat your crayons when you finish coloring.

Don't like the Kings winning, effing St. Louis blowing a 2 goal lead. I mean seriously who does that?

Kings would destroy us right now. Penguins need to get their stuff together.

I liked it, have a lot of Kings in my pool.

But how does Regehr not get called for pasting Reaves from behind?

Sorta On/Off topic but one player that is starting to piss me off is Logan Couture.
His embellishment is beyond ridiculous... can't wait for the Sharks to get bounced again from the playoffs... second round I'm sure

Oh ya PK was also a real tough guy fighting Kyle Turris, maybe he should leave the little ones of the league alone.
