Asham knows he shouldnt be on the ice anyway. Thats the only worthwhile thing hes done

Score of the game and the series aside, this has been terrible hockey for, now, the 3rd straight game.

And for the most part of the last month...

indeed it could end up 8 - 5 again, easily.

And there might only be two guys skaiting per team on the ice by the end of the game.

For all the craziness, it's still a 2 goal hockey game with 40 min left.
- Gunner Staal

True, but do you really have any in confidence in what youve seen?

cants be a goal because the net was pushed off way before the puck went in and the whistle was blown

not a penalty because he didnt intentionally push the net off, he was getting the puck away and went into the net which took it off

It was definitely the correct call.

And they aren't playing any better, continue to make the same mistakes, and generally look overwhelmed. The only difference this game, is that the Flyers are leading after the first.

Agree to disagree on intentions

Wasnt there a pens caps game back in mid 90's like that? I was a young buck an barely remember it but i believe there was.

Live in your History.. Flyer fans are watching todays game ....... this is for you

Also this is the level of intellect that they bring to the conversation. They remind of Bill O'Rielly. As soon as someone raises solid points, they scream something that barely touches the suject.

I think the Pens are a little frustrated...

more or less what Flyer fans were saying after the 1st period of game 2. Or game 1.


there's going to a LOT more goals in this game.

Solid Point the past 2 years the flyer won 11 lost 3 to your team.. Are you watching this game or still cheering Mario????

That Lemieux "Letter to the Commish" post-Islanders game is coming back to bite him after this fiasco.

hahahaha... what gave you that idea?

At least two warts are gone in Letang and Asham

I think the second period is either the turning point or the nail in the coffin.

Thinking more the latter here...we couldn't stop a men's senior league team from scoring right now...

What in the frank? Looks like I missed the most entertaining period of the series. 4 goals in one period? Fleury picked the wrong time of year to fall apart.

the thugs on this penguins team are an embarrassment to the entire sport of hockey

Hes still out there, and the shackles will be off if were in the 3rd in a blowout game. Buyer beware

So does Johnson start the second and the team have what it takes to make a miraculous comeback?

What, it's Bylsma, there will be no adjustment and he is the droid we are looking for.

That's the thing... The Pens could score the next goal, and it will feel more like a game, but until they show any ability whatsoever to play defense as a team, and make some saves, it doesn't even matter.

Speaking of things that "barely touch the subject", how's about that vague allusion to being "built on dirty play". Irrelevant? Absolutely.
