Can Coburn put a shot on net just once? The shot wide on purpose is getting old.
- FrankDrebbin
Carter would look better on D.

We've gone from high and wide to east jabip.

Both players were going for the puck....the closest players to the puck.....I've seen plenty of contact rightfully so between players who dont actually possess the puck first let go.

You're not allowed to set a pick. It was a textbook interference call.

2 perfect shots where the Goalie doesn't have much of a chance. Don't allow a 2 on 1, and cover the point which is basic defensive zone coverage.
- MJL


The 2 on 1 was a nice designed play....our worst defensive forward line got caught napping leaving kennedy wide freaking open, that is bullpoop see my location. Bryz hasnt made a huge save but not sure if any goals have been "soft"

It was pretty clear interference but it wasn't anywhere near the head...
- nhindian


Shoulder hit head, very similar to the Grossmann hit. I have no problem with tough hockey, but the Penguins seem to be doing all the can to hurt the Flyers, and that's bullpoop.

Kennedy is unchecked and has all day to pick his spot and he hit the shot. That one isn't on Bryzgalov.
- MJL


I could score if you gave me all day from the dot to rip one because 5 Flyers are holding hands playing duck, duck, goose.

Malkin does not get the benefit of the doubt. See Rinaldo.

poor d, and i'm not blaming him for the goal. i think he had more of a chance than the effort he displayed. the team in front of him needs to be better. at both ends of the ice.

can't. i'm in the philly area. what are they saying?
- hammarby31

2nd goal.
The angle they showed had Bryz with the top of his glove pointed at the shooter. Shoulder to elbow to hand angle looked fine, but the glove was pointed forward, glove was short side. Shot short side.
He then tries to make the save by lifting is entire arm from the shoulder.
Is that what gets taught?
I would think it would be more effective to keep the glove pointing vertically. If anything it makes the short hole above the shoulder look smaller and less desirable.

and the offense wasn't very good either. they're generating nothing.

Have to get better 5 on 5 play and fast because we havent score unless its been on the PP in which feels like a lifetime.

agreed. they've played dirty all series and have attempted, successfully, to injure and remove players from the game and series.

Malkin: Go ahead. This is a bush league. I will keep taking headshots and goalie rundowns. And I dare you to suspend me.

I am ok with this game despite being outplayed the 2nd period. #-2 win this period and win the series.

he was wide open, but your $51m goalie should make a big save

Briere had his point covered. Could care less about your location.

Just showed the Malkin hit. He hit Coots simultaneously in shoulder and head with his own shoulder.

Neither one of them were going for the puck. The puck was headed into the corner and Coots was NOT in between Malkin and the puck. That is classic interference.

It was square on the shoulder, even with Coots leaning over...
