It is pretty painful to have to tangentially root for the Penguins though, I'm already tired of watching Kessel be too overweight to properly backcheck.

bewbies posted: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. Teams not better than the Preds: Blackhawks Blues Ducks Like, I don't like the Penguins. It I can appreciate when they play good hockey (which really wasn't last night, but at other points this playoffs). Oh, I'm def moving to St. Louis. So we can go to a playoff Blues game next year and watch the inferior Predators beat them again!

for all the talk of how lovely the pens were last night, i still thought they looked significantly better than they did in just about every game in the caps series

Sharks Eat Bear posted:for all the talk of how lovely the pens were last night, i still thought they looked significantly better than they did in just about every game in the caps series Yeah Nashville did a great job limiting shots against obviously but 26 shots for is really not much at all. Just a weird weird game. That was probably the best possible way the Pens could win a game given that they played like absolute poo poo and aside from the result it feels like a loss. So maybe they can get the game 2 losing team bump even though they won . e: Let's summarize what the Penguins did last night. They: - Had 12 shots on goal - Were miraculously up by 3-0 despite that - Went like 37 mins without a shot - blew a 3 goal lead, including a crushing short handed goal as the 3rd goal - Were not even particularly good in goal given MM gave up 3 goals on 26 shots - Somehow won the fuckin' game anyways Ginette Reno fucked around with this message at 14:35 on May 30, 2017 |

Watching that grainy rear end "review" makes me angry as hell. You can't see poo poo on there, how's a ref supposed to make a call based on that?

Hainsey is pulling a plow around out there sure, but Matta is a loving turnover machine and I don't understand why one of the WBS forwards can't be dressed to take his place because at this point if they can block a shot and clear the puck from behind the Pens net then that would be an improvement.

now that the predators fanbase is growing large and coming into its own i think its time for them to realize that tossing animal corpses around is actually pretty frickin gross, like come on guys you have lots of other cool and unique things you do as a fanbase, do you really want imitating red wings fans to be one of them?

Yeah dude, if I wanna wild out with a vacuum sealed gutted catfish in my boy shorts zone and throw it onto the ice during a competitive sports game ESPECIALLY when instructed specifically not to do that thing then that will be my crusade. The founding fathers got shot in the gullyworks and died in placid fields to give me the right to put my groin fish onto the playing surface of a international sport and if I DIDN'T do it, all true patriots would cry out my treasons in unison.

I actually thought Hainsey played alright last night in that he was only partially a dumpster fire and not a complete one. Maatta was horrific though.

Picking any sea creature as your throw-on-the-ice tradition is a terrible tactical decision. If you're going throw an animal/food product your first choice is cured meat, imo. Maybe hard cheeses. Nashville seems like a place that would be into that, too.

I need to be perfectly clear, the crew at the arena had every right to throw him out but gently caress the police for real. The two unassailable truths - gently caress the Police and Eat the Rich. He bought the ticket and the fish and smuggled it into a building, did the real stupid thing that harmed no one.

Yeah maybe charging that guy with a bunch of offences is a little harsh. Most people who do dumb things at sports events just get thrown out/banned.

you totally know this guy googled "hockey" before he went to the game and found himself in a wiki hole that eventually took him to the octopus thing and he was like "well durn that thar is a good goldang idea" but since he didn't know what exactly an octopus was he went out in the deep freeze behind his trailer and took out one of last year's catfishes instead

Oh gently caress yes, throw twelve onto the ice to denote the amount of shots you need in a SCF game to beat Pekka Rinne. Wonderllama posted:Captain internet's descent into the depths of posting multiple paragraphs of sardonic commentary to defend his team/fan base/ideology is what SAS playoffs posting is all about.

Considering Curtis Lazar ate a burger that was thrown onto the ice, it wouldn't surprise me to see anything edible thrown onto the ice and have a player eat it.

Couldn't Preds fans just throw some Famous Hot Nashville Chicken (which I didn't realize was a thing until KFC started doing it and such a restaurant opened in Columbus) on the ice? It's pre-processed and not gross. Ginette Reno posted:Yeah Nashville did a great job limiting shots against obviously but 26 shots for is really not much at all. Just a weird weird game. This has been the Penguins unintentional game plan more often than not this postseason: Survive the initial onslaught, Do just enough to win late 1st/early 2nd, Hang on for dear life and maybe piss away the lead, Somehow win anyway.

I would certainly hope the Penguins won't protect Maatta in the expansion draft, but I have a dreadful feeling they will.

Perfect title to the thread. Someone said that Pens team is better than they looked against the Caps. I sure hope so. I felt ill this morning waking up and realizing we actually lost that game. I've never seen anyone as salty as bewbies before.

Hey, do yourselves a favor if you are a Pens fan. Do not YouTube PK Subban and watch all the amazing sick children surprises and just pure loving absolute classy poo poo he has done non-stop since he came into the league. Like, oh my loving god do not fall into that rabbit hole. I know he was charitable and great but god drat. Like, Sid does some pretty great, selfless things and maybe doesn't promote it or whatever but Subban is on another level. Dude just loves people.
