If you listen to the NHL radio webcast (choose away team of course today) you can hear his call.

Man Fleury is lucky.

my god what a game. pens had a high sphincter factor going for about the first half of the first, think the wings going to be showing it themselves come the third.

Yeah, that's not so great. So far Fleury is holding up well though. One more period to maintain our lead.

This has been a great even game for the most part. The pens are just capitalizing on their breaks. Look forward to a wings rush quickly in the third.

Coach said mid section injury. LIAR! That was a knee. Probably a sprain or a tear. I hope it was an injury that will allow him to get on the ice for the 3rd though.

When did Brad Stuart get traded to Pittsburgh?

Wings deserve to lose it. They are sitting back waiting for the puck to come to them and assuming Pittsburgh will back off when they have the puck. Kudos to the Pens for playing a much better series.

If Crosby even gets half a mention for MVP my head will explode.

 

[kranky]

The Pens need to withstand a furious push by the Wings to get an early goal in the 3rd. If they can I think the Wings will be too tired to come back.

 

[sdifox]

Humm, Crosby is coming back. Wonder if he is going to be effective?

 

[Paratus]

Crosby is coming back? Where did you hear that?

 

[KeithTalent]

Yes, Crosby is back!

A birdy told me.

 

[KeithTalent]

Damn, looks like he's not going to play much, if at all.

I think he is there just for moral.

 

[sdifox]

wtf is redwings doing, waiting for the penguins to come out behind the net? they should be doing one on one now.

 

[sdifox]

Man the redwings are failing badly... Penguins are putting more pressure on the Redwings but it should be the other way around.

 

[sdifox]

I think it's over.

 

[SP33Demon]

Wings have nobody who is catching and shooting, they are holding it too long and making too many extra passes which gives Pitt time to get into defensive position. It's over.

PS: Samuelsson has had an awful series.

 

[Paratus]

As a pens fan it ain't over till it's over.

 

[KeithTalent]

They look so out of sorts, it's strange. Some pressure here and there, but overall they don't even look like the same team. Still 10 minutes though, so anything can happen.

Woot, Kid Crosby!!

They are not playing the game they need to be playing. When the team leading by 2 is outshooting you 2:1, you are in serious trouble.

 

[sandorski]

C'mon Pens, almost got it.
