Well as I suggested yesterday, would they think about keeping him playing over Bishop? Also, could this onslaught of sog continue & possibly crack Vasi???
- Aussiepenguin

they won't play him over bishop. bishop has played great this post season. better than murray. so why would they play vasi when bishop is still warmed up for hockey? the murray fleury situation is diffrent cuz murray has played better than fleury usually does and fleury has been gone from hockey games for almost 3 months

Great goal by Sid?? We should keep Sid on our top line!
- Aussiepenguin

Classic Sid on that. I'd keep him up there until he doesn't score

as long as he's "shoot-first Sid" and not "look for the pretty pass Sid", I'm good with that.

Jonathan Drouin - Failed to register a shot attempt in 17:28 of ice time, and had the worst possession stats (8 for, 20 against, 28.6 SAT%) among Tampa Bay forwards in Game Three.

So much for Crosby using Drouin as an example, huh Roenick? Good thing nobody listens to you anyway.

For the Leafs fans trolling this thread and series:

Kessel had a goal and an assist, with a game-high 11 shot attempts (8 SOG) in Game Three, and has a team-leading 16 points (7 G, 9 A). He also had the best possession numbers (24 for, 10 against, 70.6%) among Penguins forwards in Game Three.

Yes indeed, Phil is Phat n all dat!

Not talking Muzza/Flower. Just assessing whether they run with a goalie that's holding the fort very well - possibly better than Bishop??? Bishop may come in & lay an egg!

I know you are just adding it cuz I know someone will say "well why don't fleury play then". and as I said. bishop has been excelent. vasi has not been better than bishop in any way

Ive been watching the games online on CBC. I prefer it over NBC and their intermission coverage is wayyy better than listening to those idiots Milbury and Roenick.

I watch it online and hook my computer to my tv. At the very least, watch it during intermission. Don Cherry is entertaining as well if nothing else than for his suits.

The HBK line was straight fire last night. Kessel has taken it to another level and shoving it down the throats of all the naysayers. That trade is starting to look even more one sided then originally thought.

He started it. Sorry about your lax boys.
- Victoro311


DU didn't play good lax after we blew that big lead against your boys and won in OT. Lost to then unranked PSU and then at home in the finals of the BE tournament to unranked Marquette. Blew a big lead in that game. If not, we are the top seed and don't have to face a tough Towson team. Absolutely wasted season IMO. Didn't deserve anything.

It looked like he deferred on a lot of shot opportunities for some reason. Pulled up on some.

He looked horrible last night. Pretty sure he was benched for a bit. Hopefully that continues.

I just can't justify not watching Doc Emrick no matter how bad the intermission guys are. Also to be perfectly honest I'd rather have Pierre than not have Pierre. He's like hilariously weird. Without Pierre we don't get that amazing Phil Kessel moment from last night.
