Ginette Reno posted:I'm not saying you're doing this but people get way too panicky about their team peaking too early before the playoffs. That doesn't matter. If anything it's a good omen that you're playing that well, unless you're getting unsustainably lucky. Repostin' this for the new thread: Sharks Eat Bear posted:Good question! I pulled some 5v5 stats from war-on-ice below: The good news is that the Pens aren't "peaking" because of good puck luck or unsustainable goaltending -- it's because they have a roster that is built perfectly for Sullivan's system.

i can't really tell from the replays -- wilson didn't hit zhadorov's head? i know you can't eliminate concussions entirely, but that seems like a reckless hit. zhadorov definitely put himself in that vulnerable position, but wilson also easily could have avoided destroying him

Pornographic Memory posted:so according to some poo poo people have been saying on the radio mike sullivan isn't planning on breaking up crosby or kessel's line when malkin returns. i hope the penguins can make it far enough into the playoffs to make that happen because it would be pretty amazing to watch them rolling their lines and have one of crosby, kessel, or malkin on the ice for around 50 minutes a game, maybe even more if they decide this means crosby can play on the penalty kill i can get behind this 1) kunitz - crosby - hornqvist 2a) hagelin - bonino - kessel 2b) fehr/sheary - malkin - bennett 3) fehr/sheary - cullen - kuhnhackl that does not seem like an easy lineup to match against. god i hope we make it to the point where malkin returns

a false posted:please everyone do not forget that marc-andre fleury in the playoffs MAF has a 0.934 SV% in his last 18 playoff games. Even if we go back to 2013 it's still a 0.921. Also it might be moot because depending on the hotness of MAF's brain, we could see playoffs Murray. Blossoming-but-still-unknown future star goalie getting his first shot to make a name for himself in the biggest way possible??? That's a narrative just BEGGING for some classic playoff heroics Do we know when Halak and Hamonic come back? I would love to play the Isles in the 1st round if those two are out of the picture. But I won't be too upset if we draw the rangers. Feels like the got over a mental hump by lighting them up pretty consistently this year. That said, I'll never count out playoffs Hank, so I'd prefer to see the Isles...

i actually like the idea of the kings winning another cup (if the pens don't make it to the SCF at least) for mostly anti-social reasons, but i would equally support the sharks making a run

Aphrodite posted:Beaunitis. i wish i had waited longer to get a new pens jersey this year. stuck with a boring ol bennett jersey, could have had BEAUNITIS and fwiw i would rather play the isles than the rags 9 times out of 10, pretty much only because of lundqvist
