MAF let in a few softies that Murray saves, but Murray probably lets that backdoor toe save in third that MAF made. OT goal wasn't MAF's fault, maybe Murray gets a piece of it as he's bigger in net though.

They want so hard to win for Fleury that its a distraction?

"They didn't feel the same need to protect Fleury to the level they have done with Murray"

The Penguins literally blocked like 25 shots... they didn't want to let anything though, so much so that they had trouble generating tangible offense because they were so concerned about playing defense

That's not how a team plays when they are confident in their goalie

Did you even watch the game????

Goalies play a very important part in hockey. Typically, they are the last line in defense against a goal being scored.

Watching Crosby's lazy back check on the tying goal late in the 3rd is the real problem. His man put's it to the net off the high boards because Crosby did a fly by wave the stick move.

I have said it before and I will say it again. The Penguins have wasted many years of playoffs with MAF. Team Canada wants no part of him. Yes he is a nice guy and everybody loves him but that is not a path to success. He has a great regular season record but playing goal for this team, most any average goalie would have similar success. But if he is such an All Star Hall of Famer, why does Team Canada stay away from him like he has got the plague. Answer is they don't Trust him. And until he gets the monkey off his back (playoff meltdowns and dissappointments) they will never come calling. He has never proved that he can be THE MAN in crucial situations. Other than winning a CUP in 2009, which is like ancient history, what has he done. Not much in the playoffs that is for sure. I read somewhere today that the last 6 O/T's that he has played in that he is 0-6. That tells you something right there
The lovefest with this guy should end unless he can do something heroic and I just do not see it happening. I dare him to prove me WRONG.
