Bruins - Pens ECF

what's this thing they call a power play??

 

[pixburgher66]

Well, he was already losing an edge, but still an easy call. Bad timing.

Chara you have a 105+ slap shot, USE IT!!!!!!!

Saved by the bell...

Jagr has been setting "picks" all night...right at the blue line.

 

[BF4L]

The dreaded PP with under 2 mins left.

Bruins got called for a similar one in game 2.

Those are not picks Pix. He just cannot move anymore so he stops and stands there.

 

[pixburgher66]

Mind blowing that the WCF is a game ahead...two game 7s, but yeah, they're ahead.

The Pens also. In fact, every team does it. When it's done right it's not even interference.

Hahhaah, this is entirely possible. I honestly think he would've been called on the first one, but it was on the powerplay. He pushed Neal offsides, then held him offsides. He's been rather noticable though, which is generally a good thing. Unless you're Joe Vitale noticable. There's one guy who won't be back this postseason. Stupid even up penalty, dangerous turnovers, yep.

I agree, but it is interference when you prevent a guy from getting to the puck. Or from staying onside, hah.

 

[Darkstone42]

Kennedy or Jokinen over Vitale would probably be wise.

 

[beantownmaniac]

LMAO, "there's no Italian soccer players in these guys." It isn't often but every now and then Milbury says something that cracks me up.

 

[beantownmaniac]

They've been letting that go both ways all series so far.

 

[pixburgher66]

They've been letting that go both ways all series so far.

I prefer, generally, for them to not call it. It's just been less than subtle thus far tonight.

[Darkstone42]

The Penguins need this one. I hope they come out in the third and play like it.
