His linemates aren't buying him any space and Tampa is stuck to him like velcro. Sheary did have that one really nice shift however and helped him out. They got really close to scoring.

I 100% understand that and I don't blame Malkin for not trusting his linemates to help him out, but I think he can check is frustration better and be less frazzled.

Can't wait for Tampa to have their own version of the Fleury/Murray debate.

I honestly can't see them putting him in. Vasi is playing incredible. At this rate gotta hope he wears down.

Here is the funny thing. Their third guy from Latvia, is also a stud. He is the kid that had like 65 saves in an Olympic matchup versus Canada in a 2-1 loss.

I remember that game. Dude was on fire

Is he actually a stud or did he have one good game against Canada? Beware the goalie that looks amazing in one tournament/post season.

I find it very hard to believe Bishop can play after what happened the other night.

Great period by the boys. Really, one of the most impressive in the play-offs thus far. The only thing, it only yielded one goal. We totally dominated that period. TB lucky its only 1-0.
- Oneonta Penguin

yeah the guys played great. vasilevsky is playing phenomenally, although a couple point blank shots were right into his chest.

sully getting creative here and there. guys stepping up with the double shifts. just gotta keep it up. gonna need at least one more.

I think it's starting. If they lose, maybe they will go back to bishop to get a spark, but vasy has been amazing

Is Bishop even dressed tonight? I know they list him as day-to-day, but for the way that thing unfolded and him carted off on a stretcher, I find it hard to believe he would be ready for game four based on his agony and it looked like he got shot.

He is a stud. Saw him play a few games for Syracuse.

The Pens have had some really good games against Bishop. I hope he returns soon.

A miscommunication that should be cleared up by a talk on the bench.
- powerhouse

I've seen at least 3 of those miscommunication's. Not easy when you play as often as he does but doesn't look as good as game 2

True. Maybe they listed him day to day to make the pens worry he could come back soon

Lol at NBC saying the Tampa Bay GM should have been up for the GM of the year award. The team has all but... 3 from the prior year?

Sorry, but the GM had a pretty easy off season. Now, this offseason is where he can make an early statement for GM of the year coming up.

Dale Tallon is in Florida. Steve Yzerman won last year with Tampa.

And... last year doesn't mean anything for this year. Dude didn't have much to do this year.

Ugh Schultz... that was a bad play all on you

You are wrong sir, so wrong

Nonono. You did it wrong. The way you do it is by writing "^bump".

1) every time Cullen is in a face-off, he lets the referee know that the other skater is not positioned correctly... It's a brilliant move that seems to help him win the draw... He's savy...
