#1 Pens vs. #7 Sens---2nd round series thread

[pixburgher66]

Engo/Murray just painful to watch...not only that, they're a very repetitive player to have in the lineup, let ALONE on a pair.

That combined with the ample cross checks in this game...they're good. BUT NO FASHWASHES IN SCRUMS.

It wasn't a facewash that got Neal banished to the sin bin. He came from behind and grabbed Conacher's strap loop thing and wrenched his head to the side. It's a super douchey move.

The zebra basically gave Neal 2 minutes for acting like a douchebag.

Conacher off...for...uhhhh...something that's a penalty for good defense.

I mean, that's the truth. I love him because he scores goals, but I don't think I'd be the guy's friend.

It's funny how bad calls turn into goals so often.

 

[pixburgher66]

Man...almost got #4 there. 4th line with some energy.

Approximately 94.88% of the time I'd say...so we can never, ever, ever forget them.

I tend to think the Sens missed their opportunity w/ shaky Vokoun. Seems much more settled in now.

 

[pixburgher66]

Pens PP: 39% in the postseason. PK is over 90% too. Yowza.

 

[pixburgher66]

Iggy with points in 7 straight.


I never would've guessed that. Then again ^^Powerplay #'s.

My impressions after two:

Vokoun's shakiness apparently because of the horseshoe up his ass
Zbenijad is a solid hockey player
Matt Cooke cannot hit without lifting a foot
The ice appears made of rubber
Of all the players on the ice I want most for my team, it's Orpik. Fucking warrior. Cross checker, but warrior.
I won't even pretend to know what is and is not a penalty anymore




Pisses me off that the NHL championship seems decided by a different set of rules than the regular season. What. The. Fuck.

He was bad last year, but this season has been a real bounce-back for him. Nice to see, for a while I thought he might be done as a Penguin.

He needs PaulMart though. They complement each other SO well.

Penalties, Suspensions, Supplementary discipline. It's all a mystery.

Oh shit, didn't realize hockey was on tonight.

Sometimes just shortened to "PISS".

Wait, there's supposed to be a word that starts with the letter I in there.

I'm okay but not ecstatic about the game the Penguins are playing. They're still giving the Senators too many second chances by not clearing the zone, and they're not sustaining pressure as much as I would like them to. But their putting pucks on and past Anderson at every opportunity, and I think that's good.

Orpik is playing a great hockey game. Engelland and Murray are having a rough time. Paul Martin and Kris Letang continue to be Paul Martin and Kris Letang. Niskanen appears to have recovered a bit from the Islanders series.

Good energy from lines three and four, but not a lot of pressure. The top two lines have produced some chances, but overall look to be having some timing issues, not connecting on plays they should be connecting on.

Here's hoping they put it all together in the third. The Senators are not going away, and they've been generating a lot of chances. Vokoun has just been in the way (somehow). We need to stop those chances, because Vokoun won't save all of them.

Infractions?

Leave it to the math guy to put fractions in there

I'm not sure I'd call what I've been watching "hockey".
