mrdannyg 274 Posted June 3, 2013 Share Posted June 3, 2013 Not sure I agree with you guys (big surprise). Based on what we've seen this year, if either McQuaid or Neal had been hurt, there would've been a suspension. Both are clear and purposeful hits from behind, with the boards a dangerous distance away. I've seen less called for 5 all year. I do agree that they were close enough that they should've been the same. Link to post Share on other sites

fryer98 30 Posted June 5, 2013 Author Share Posted June 5, 2013 Adrian's hockey team is looking at tourneys next year..One of the options might be Pittsburgh..Hopefully it happens. I hope I get to ref him! Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Hope the Pens try to play good hockey tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites
doox 15 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 I'd settle for just "hockey" at this point. I have no idea what they were playing the last 2 games. I also have zero idea who will be in net. I wonder if Bylsma is putting in whoever looked best in practice. Link to post Share on other sites
serge 904 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 I hope I get to ref him! Just got word that we will not be going to Pittsburgh or any US tourneys..You may know more about this, but at our age group USA hockey plays cross ice, half rink games..Which we dont here...They offered us a tourney to play against a higher age level, our coach and manager felt we would probably not be competititive.. maybe next year Link to post Share on other sites
serge 904 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 With the recent suckiness of Fleury, can you imagine if the Penguins took Eric Staal instead? Some might argue Fleury won a cup, but I dont think he WON the cup, many capable goalies would of sufficed.. Eric Staal, Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin.. Ya thats scary for you.

Fenxis 99 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Ya but then they wouldn't have traded Jordan and would have been in even more cap hell. On the flip-side; imaging Chicago if they had drafted _________ instead of Cam Barker, hmmm. No offense to D. Dubnyk but '04was a pretty terrible draft. Link to post Share on other sites
Dubey 1,035 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 yeah it was a bad first round. AJ Thielan, Lauri Tukonen, Marek Schwarz, Al montoya all drafted in the top 20 if I remember correctly, plus a bunch of other plugs. Link to post Share on other sites

Numbers aren't everything. Watch the games. Fleury was a monster. Game 7 vs Washington, stopped an Ovechkin breakaway early in the game. Pittsburgh goes on to rout them, but does it happen if Ovy scores first? Obviously game 7 vs Detroit and the final save, but he was a monster in game 6 too. Stopped Clearly on a breakaway late to preserve the 2-1 lead. You've argued before that making a save is less important as when the save is made, and the situation, etc. We don't win the Cup without him. Now, he's been very poor in the playoffs, but the team play isn't helping. Link to post Share on other sites

digitalmonkey 929 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Call me crazy, but I don't think the Penguins are necessarily done. They played much better in the second half of last night's game. They'll need Crosby though; he's looked tentative since he took off the jaw protector. Link to post Share on other sites
Fenxis 99 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 There's always next year? Guys.....? oh shit. Link to post Share on other sites
digitalmonkey 929 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 The most visibly upset player on the Penguins after the games was Pascal Dupuis. He was sobbing and Letang was consoling him. Mario Lemieux came down to the room to shake his hand. This pretty much confirms two things: 1. Dupuis has played his last game for the Penguins. 2. Sometimes it's more than a game.

Zach6668 513 Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 That would suck. After both players being pretty useless in the ECF, if signing Iginla meant losing Dupuis, I'd be pretty upset. Link to post Share on other sites
