Pittsburgh Penguins Thread


Recommended Posts

Don't see alfie's comments as being bad. It's honest. It's factual. It's hard to best any team 3 straight in the playoffs, let alone a 1 seed.

 

And the thing that drives me nuts is, wtf do you want him to say? Cliche bullshit? All most of you do is comment on how interviews are boring and useless and then we attack someone for finally giving an honest answer? Sick of this always need to find something to bitch about mentality in our society.

Brag post time. Lots of people saw pictures of Malkin practicing and Fleury in his new pads but I just saw them in person during a closed practice.     I was down at the arena to get my security

Yes I agree that Crosby kids gotta go. Can I interest you in a phaneuf?

What I like him to say:

 

" this is bullshit. We need to play better. If we play like this we will lose next game. This is unacceptable"

 

What else is the media for but to cause controversy

Hockey players should get awards for honest answers. I don't care if they are Bryzgalov-crazy or what, just anything non-cliche. Someone could make a few bucks starting a site that tracked player quotes and gave people ratings for honest or dishonest (with a voting system obv).

My son and sister are most likely heading down for the weekend. Looking for tickets for them and so far the best is $300 for nosebleeds.

For a pair? Check TiqIQ or something like that.

 

Yes for a pair. Some guy on the hobby site wanted $225-175 each firm.

 

Told my son to take the Pirates and Reds game instead since Kool and the Gang are playing after.

The whole bruin team is a piece of dirty cheapness. Please Crosby just smash Chara. Love the intensity

How one of these deserved a 5 min major and game and the other only 2 minutes in beyond me. Cooke better not be suspended. Both are minor penalties in my eyes but if you treated Cooke that way Marchand should have been handled the same.

 

All in all the game was closer then the 3-0 score. Pens missed unlimited chances. Kunitz looked like he hadn't played in 8 days. Rask was decent but the pens not finishing and hitting 3-4 posts certainly helped. A couple defensive lapses by the pens when they were frustrated by not being able to find the back of the net. I'm expecting Rask to see a few behind him Monday night.

Marchand penalty definately was not a 5 minute major. Cooke probably wasn't either but I see a little more in the penalty

Agree. It just seems to be pretty obvious that if you wear #24 for the Pens you very rarely are going to get any calls go your way. Not that he really has earned it but I don't think consistency is too much to ask for.

don't think either should have been 5 minute majors. nhl officiating is a joke... half of cooke's penalty minutes the last few seasons have been for getting punched in the face in a scrum where they decide to take both guys, it's ridiculous. 2 mins for being matt cooke is a real thing.

 

anyways, Pens played well, just snake bitten on scoring, which obviously won't last long with all the talent they have up front. 97 posts hurt too.
