Let's stop the Penguins belly flop GDT

[dare2be]

We Ottawa get going today.

I hope the Pens have chosen a torrid pace as part of the game plan for today.

Spezza hooked Malkin, let's get the PP going!

 

[dare2be]

Ho hum.

 

[dare2be]

Great defensive play by Letang.

 

[dare2be]

Pens are playing on their heels again.

 

[dare2be]

No puck control, can't generate a rush let alone get into the offensive zone.

 

[dare2be]

Neal gets a nice feed from Malkin...I'm still alive in the Survivor thread. Amazingly Tangradi went to the net and drew some attention.

On second thought, no one paid any attention to Tangradi, as they shouldn't.

 

[dare2be]

Composite stick slash automatic penalty. Pens back on the PP.

 

[Darkstone42]

Can anyone not take a penalty in this game?

 

[Darkstone42]

And Letang saved the shorty. Good play getting back. Bad play by Malkin and Neal to cause the initial turnover, though.

That's Letang's 2nd good defensive play today. He came to play today.

 

[dare2be]

Another 1st period lead. Let's not repeat the last couple of games.

 

[Darkstone42]

I thought we had a goal there. Twice.

 

[Darkstone42]

Looked like a good save on the break by Anderson to rob Cooke, but I can't see the puck on my grainy feed.

 

[Darkstone42]

Adams got away with one there, perhaps because he never extended his arms.

Yeah, it looks like the boarding calls are centering around whether the arms are used in a pushing motion into the boards, which doesn't explain the call on Malkin earlier, which was just a shoulder hit.

 

[dare2be]

Here we go.

 

[Darkstone42]

Stupid, stupid play by Malkin.
