Thanks for what I already knew

But for real they gotta find a way to clear one of those Staal/G contracts this summer. One just has to go
- TPC

Yeah.
I fell asleep in the intermission woke up at the 5-3, went back to sleep after the shorty.

I'm guessing there was an empty net goal within 30 seconds of Raanta getting pulled.

We outshot you every period, you really can't say the Penguins dominated the game, if so you shouldn't be talking about eyesight

Shot quality is a thing... firing from the point vs getting pucks down low and setting up better chances exists.

And your delusion that we had better puck luck

Yeah.

I was wondering where you went...how do you fall asleep in a playoff game

Nah blocked shot that turns into a breakaway is a common occurrence and a shot that goes off of a player in the crease and drops down for a tap in are set plays, a lot of skill involved, Pens blocked a ton of shots, I'm not saying they didn't deserve the win so don't get your panties in a bunch

I missed the entire game, had to take my wife to emergency room around 6:45, didn't get home until 12:30.

Sounds like the only thing more irritating than the emergency room for 6 hours was watchin that game last night

Don't think I'm breaking new territory by saying Nash has to be more effective offensively, he mad two great plays on the back check, Rangers will be better
- KreiderBomb

Yup, that goes for all the forwards last night. Although Nash has the longest run of being invisible in the playoffs.

Imagine if the Rangers blocked that many shots and won, it would be the Rangers devalued hockey again. Pens do it and its the thing to do

Damn sorry Jimbo, hopefully she is ok

I was (frank)ing deliriously tired last night. Got like 8 hours of sleep total the previous 2 days.

Odd, seems you are the one making up excuse after excuse for the loss, not me. isn't that supposed to be a Pens thing?

Damn sorry Jimbo, hopefully she is ok

yeah, thanks, turns out to be some severe vertigo thing, but they gave her every irritating test in the entire world and the cast of characters in an ER is like a haunted house

Hopefully she's ok. Last thing to worry about is the game believe me.

Everything OK? Game was frustrating but not hard to see we can beat them

I can't remember his name, but there was one particular Pens poster who said the Rangers block too many shots and it should be illegal. Also he said the Rangers play the trap.

That sucks. Hopefully they fix that poop.

Yep I remember that, I am sure he is saying that today to

My mother had that once. Couldn't get off the floor because everything was spinning and she was vomiting like the exorcist girl. Hasn't happened since and that was probably almost 10 years ago.

Hopefully it ends up the same for your wife.

Hows everyone holding up?

- eichiefs9

yeah it was crazy, very similar only she had the nausea really bad but didn't vomit.

She is on some meds home resting today. I didn't think we were ever getting out of emergency room, that really is a rough place, I saw some poop in there, lots of car accidents coming in, blood, hockey sticks in the eye, the whole thing

My first post last night was Zatkoff was going to look all world. So honestly, I'm not surprised at all, kind of what I figured.

Someone actually predicted that?

If Hank doesn't get hurt Rangers win that game. They were in complete control before his injury then that deflated the team I feel a bit. Just couldn't recover and Pens made them pay
- TPC

The shots were 12-10 when the goal was scored.... Rangers were outshooting the Pens 12-3 after the first 10... so the team in complete control didn't register a shot for the final 10 minutes of the period.

Don't disagree it was a different game but the Pens tilted the ice right back after the first 10.

Someone actually predicted that?
- Guile

If you have seen the Rangers play against the back up of the back up, you would understand.

Game 2 is the key, lose game 2 I don't think they have much chance. Gotta get a split
- TPC

Well they have to win 4 straight now so I can relax before my vacation.

Had that happen to a guitar player back in the 90s. He was a glazier, apparently got vertigo from the reflections while carrying glass. Weird. Treatment was sort of like concussion protocol.
Hope the wife doesn't have it that bad, maybe just an inner ear problem.
ER visits suck.
