We should be pounding the crap out of ALL of their defenseman, and not just Letang. They have a good defensive group, but they lack size. We have some big forwards that are superb on the forecheck and protecting the puck (i.e., Simmonds, Hartnell, Jagr etc.) . We need to exploit the Penguins in that department, and force offensive zone time as a result.

Barkan (take it for what it's worth) calls Kubina a healthy scratch. I know people have been skating around it all day, but no one has really called him a healthy scratch until now.

So what's the thought process there? Has he not looked good the past few games? He seemed fine to me..

He's really struggled down the stretch. I think he is not healthy, and it's affecting his play.

I dont remember him looking good since he came back from the injury. I remember a few plays he didn't look to hot. Plus the way he likes to pinch could bite the Flyers in the butt against the pens....

Yeah, Tocchet just corrected him and said "i don't know if he's a healthy scratch. If he's healthy, he's playing today"

I wonder how many fights Bobby Orr got into in his career? It's not exactly what he is known for.

Don't question Urban Dictionary, and don't question the term's largely negative ratings.

I've never once heard it as a Bobby Orr Hat trick until today. Anyway I looked up Orr's fight totals. He was in more fights then I thought he would of been in.

Most of the Sportsnet analysts have the Penguins winning the cup. Darren Millard is taking the Flyers to win vs LA in the Finals... LOL first i have seen..

The sky has no color.... The color you see is the result of the beam of light bouncing off the O3 molecules in our atmosphere.

Apparently Howe only had one Howe Hat Trick in his NHL career. Check the numbers again MJ. Maybe the feat should be referred to as a Bobby Orr hat trick after all.
