Game Thread: Flames at Penguins

2-0 Pens Zolnierczyk with the tip in

I'm glad you typed it so I didn't have to.

That was a pretty sweet deflection.

LOL yeah, he's a tough one to spell.

Watching Bortuzzo play right now must makes the fact that Bylsma was using Engelland over him even more ridiculous.

Bortuzzo can do all the things Engelland can, but he's also better at everything else. He's like Engelland with hockey skills.

I agree, I would argue that there are at least 8-10 guys at the blue line I would play over Engelland.

I can understand keeping him as the seventh over a lot of those guys so they can get regular time in the AHL, but Bortuzzo was scratched every night. He was being wasted.

That referee probably had a tired arm on that delayed penalty.


I started this post before the Penguins touched up the puck, then I forgot about it.

 

[Darkstone42]

Another kill for the Penguins.

 

[Darkstone42]

Excellent first period for the Penguins.

 

[dash]

Well that period sucked (not unexpected though). Flames look half-asleep and the Pens pounced like a fat kid on a Smartie.

Santa Cros

The spirit of giving (as in dishing assists).

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

2nd period underway, don't let up guys.

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Neal is getting some good chances in this game. Hopefully he'll be rewarded by a goal or 2 or 3 or more this game.

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Uh oh, Nisky might be hurt. That could leave us with an all rookie blue line.

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Flames score, 2-1 game.

 

[Darkstone42]

Terrible powerplay, and the Flames capitalized on the momentum.

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Lot's of pressure on Maatta to be the best dman on the team as a 19 year old rookie.

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Nice to see Nisky back on the ice.

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIID

WHAT A GOAL!

 

[dash]

So I run an errand for my wife and the Flames score, I get back home just in time to see Crosby score.

I'm starting to see a pattern.

 

[Darkstone42]

What a goal that was. And another multi-point game for Sid.

Maatta to the dressing room. Hopefully just some maintenance.
