I hate female doging about refs.....but WTF!

Martin: 2nd dirty gutless hit from behind this period, should be 5 minutes in the box.

Cole: tiny little love tap.

Offsetting minors.

that roughing penalty was downright comical

Refs suck more than usual today.

Glad Cole is sticking up for his teammates, but damn...

How the (frank) is that Douche Martin allowed to play hockey

Are theses zebras from new York. Wtf

(frank) you.

That would be just masturbation since you're my alt as well... so maybe later

That call on Cole was terrible. Same as the no call on the Crosby trip.

That may have been the worst call I've seen all year... NHL is a joke

So Cole now has the hothead target to draw penalties from?

There is no player that gets away with more poop against Pittsburgh than Martin. Dirty player. There was some fool on this board that I haven't seen in a while very adamant that the Pens should trade James Neal to the Islanders for Martin.

Martin certainly want going for an intent to injure thing there. Shove Cole in so he can take out Murray.

At least the one Islander fan on their blog at the moment doesn't defend Martin.

NHL really really wants the NYR v NYI first round.

Well... Don't think anyone is surprised by Cole and Martin fighting

Martin is living proof that the Neanderthals and Cro-magnons interbred.

Cole stood no chance there, but good for him.

Tough matchup for Cole right there in a fight. Glad Ian did that though. Martin is such a goon.

I hope Martin broke a finger on his helmet.

Hickey lost his jockstrap against a 39 year old 4th liner.

Kudos to that (frank) Martin for not destroying the guy...

Cole stood no chance there, but good for him.

Eh, at least he didn't get planted and embarrassed in that fight right away.

Yep. Cole is a man. Martin is a coward who is only tough when the other guy's back is turned.

Cole needs to stick to playing defense.....maybe give Tavares the same treatment.

Good first period. If some passes were there - to Crosby and Kessel ... this game is 3-0.

Cole's visor may have done more damage than his fists, but we'll take it.

I hope some one catches Martin coming across the middle with his head down........please. and Martin dies.
