The refs did an awesome job causing Conn Smythe Trophy Candidate Pekka Rinne to post a .556 save percentage

I'm pretty sure Letang got sacrificed to some dark power at this point. That level of luck is just obscene.

the penguins are just more efficient than the predators and shot exactly as much as they needed to, thats what the experience of having been there before does for you

But I think Letang missing extended all three series so far. Like game 1 against Ottawa, doesn't go to overtime or we pull out the win. At the same time, I think winning without Letang is very important for the franchise. I admit, I didn't think we'd get beyond Washington without Letang.

I honestly do think this is an amazing performance because for a team to go 37 minutes without a shot and still win in the Stanley Cup Final is historical, and it is impressive even if it meant the team I wanted to win lost. Besides, I already have the Pens winning in 7, at most I'd just be disappointed but unsurprised if the Pens won the Cup, not angry like if the Ducks had won.

Pekka Rinne is definitely a goalie who does better when facing a lot of shots. To be honest he probably let that fourth one in because he wasn't as focused as he normally is. He'll bounce back

That was some bizarre poo poo. Don Cherry was railing on the Pens and I felt like I was starting to agree with him. What the gently caress? It felt like the universe was unraveling just a tiny bit.

I've long since switched from "how are we being outplayed nightly and winning?" to "we are actually playing better and stats are meaningless". Homerism is a hard drug. Btw, what was up with the catfish? Nobody in my local Pittsburgh bar had any idea, and spent the aftermath distracted by the unclaimed loose labrador that ruined the bartender's coke high.

Catfish is a thing Nashville does. First time I remember seeing it, it was done to mock the Detroits octopus. Usually the catfish ain't hosed up and gutted. Usually it's just a whole fuckin fish. It obviously contained a monkey's paw like wishcurse which said the Pens would only get 5 more shots on goal the whole game.

What an odd wish though. "I wish my opponents would be held to 12 shots this game." There's no way for whoever wished that to see the obvious strategical flaw in his wish that he's making on a cursed monkey's paw?

Hey, if this poo poo made any sense the Penguins would be stacked up like cord wood in a corner with a crudely drawn "here lies bevis, he never scored" tombstone in front of it. It was a historically bad game of hockey and the Predators lost to literally one of the worst performances ever. It's one thing to do the very bad stinky hockey. It's a completely other thing to lose to that stink hockey.

The real lesson is that if you score 3 quick goals, it probably doesn't matter how stinky you are afterward And also, try to enter the offensive zone with both feet on the ice at all costs

Nashville had some bad puck luck, at least one egregious error from Rinne, and that really bad call from the war room against Subban's goal. Hopefully they don't overreact for their next game, the better team lost, which means they should start to get more of those bounces going their way soon.

He'll bounce back I have bad news for you friend, the Penguins are likely to continue to get outshot by wide margins Last night was one of the most extreme lucky/unlucky playoff games I've ever seen for sure. Rinne let in two softies and Ekholm scored an own goal and the Preds' first goal got overturned on an offside. I feel like if that game could be played 50 times the Preds would win about 46 of them. Obviously I find it cool and good that my team won, but if I were a Preds fan I'd still be feeling pretty good. Kinda reminds me of the 02 SCF when Carolina won game 1 in OT and everyone was all ITSHAPPENING.jpg and then the Wings crushed them in four straight. Not saying Preds in 5 but the Pens are going to have to play way better to win 3 out of 6. That or hope the Preds stay in Full Caps Mode.

Wonderllama posted:That seems like a horribly inefficient way to send a message tho? Well, he hasn't noticed that Hainsey is a really bad, not good DEFENSEman in the most effective communication of "seeing it with his own goddamned eyes." why not throw a few layers obfuscation on it? It can only help. Plus, I can just put a predators jersey and Sully can attach his answer to a puck and give it to Hainsey and it'll find it's way to me almost immediately. Vvvvvvvvvv Hey bewbo, is this a secret toxx or a sickhouse experimental gimmick of "willfully ignorant hockey fan?" Just curious, no judgement. Chase your bliss, but if you're accepting feedback, I can tell you that posting worse than me is a bold strategy that rarely pays off.

I think it is pretty clear now that there are at least a half dozen other teams from the west that are better than the Preds and that they have no business being in this final, it was making almost uncomfortable watching them bumble around last night.
