I predict the Preds will win tonight but the Pens will win the Cup in 7 glorious games

All we need is Rinne laying out Kessel in the crease and it will be perfect Oh, and half of Nashville burning down after the Peds lose Game 7, that too

Kunitz doesn't play much differently without a stick though so it's good

Apparently making contact with a guy who is carrying the puck is a penalty now?

Oh I see, that was a loving dirty play by Hornqvist not moving out of Ellis's way there, good call

If I had last change I would definitely wait until Hainsey/Maatta take the ice to spend my PP1 out

That is one of the most loving retarded challenges I have ever seen What the gently caress are you doing Sully?

If there's 5 minutes left in the game I understand that challenge, but it very obviously was not interference and it's loving stupid to waste your timeout in the first period on a no-hoper

Sullivan seems to believe that if the Pens fall behind 2-0 they're cooked Which is somewhat worrisome

I kinda wish the Pens' PP wouldn't spend so much time along the side boards Taking a penalty near the end of a period is the worst though, it means the other team can use its PP1 the entire power play Which is especially bad in the Penguins' case since their PP1 scores like 97% of their power play goals

Captain Internet posted:It amazing how much the NHL stands to benefit from the Pittsburgh Penguins Hockey Club win the Stanley Cup for the second time in a row. I mean how bad would it be to have a first time champion in a potential hotbed in the south by leveraging its unique environment from other sports. It would be POISON for Bettman with Nashville wins. It definitely keeps him awake at night....because of his uncomfortable greed boner because holy loving poo poo No no no, the proper argument to make is that NBC controls the NHL, and thus the refs, and, if the TV schedule is any indication, the only two teams whose existence NBC is even aware of are the Penguins and Blackhawks.

Actually the best explanation for the refs being biased in the Penguins' favor is that Bettman does indeed want Nashville to win, but lolbettman

I'm glad they're having fun chanting, but I'm pretty sure Murray knows drat well that it is not his fault As does anyone else who has functional eyes and a blood alcohol level below .45

Near-perfect replica of the 2008 Finals so far, except with the Penguins as the Red Wings rather than the Penguins

The trouble with defensemen as bad as Pittsburgh's is that you can turtle on a lead and still generate scoring chances against them

I still feel good about the Penguins winning the Cup, except for the nagging worry that if the Preds score 5 tonight MAF may start Thursday

Worst case scenario: Murray starts Game 5 but gets chased, MAF gets a 47 save shutout in Game 6 and then makes 49 saves in a 1-0 Game 7 loss, followed by the Penguins deciding to keep him and trade Murray away ahead of the expansion draft

Ginette Reno posted:Call me crazy but I think the Pens might still win this game. They've been pretty good. This game's pretty exactly what we all worried about coming into this series though: Pens are pretty good, get some chances, but the defensemen are just too drat weak to hold up. And it looks like Sully is prepared to go down playing Hainsey and Maatta near 20 minutes each to the bitter end, which I may never quite understand

Hip Now and Wow! posted:I wish they would get rid of the trapezoid and let goalies actually play the puck more. I wish they would just let goalies go anywhere they want but make them fair game if they leave the crease It bugs me the way they're allowed to just chill out behind the net basically sticking their tongues out at opposing forwards and saying "neener neener"
