Game 7 Thread Pens V Bolts

[Darkstone42]

The Penguins have to keep doing this. Keep hitting, keep skating, play smart. No stupid penalties. No neutral zone turnovers. They have to play a perfect game.

Things have already started to calm down a bit. That makes me a bit nervous.

Super forecheck by TK.

 

[Darkstone42]

Is that going to be goaltender interference on Letang? He got checked from behind after practically stopping. If it is, I won't be happy.

 

[ELYEAH82]

Fuck that asshole official

 

[Darkstone42]

Okay, good call. Waived off for interference, but no penalty. That call isn't made enough.

 

[joe_baran]

Drats, Kunitz completely misses the net on that shot.

 

[BlueandWhiteForever]

The White Out Pittsburgh, really?

 

[ELYEAH82]

Are you fucking kidding me

 

[Darkstone42]

That's a textbook boarding. No call, though.

 

[ELYEAH82]

That's a textbook boarding. No call, though.

I am sure they will get the Pens on another tick tack call

 

[Darkstone42]

His numbers were to Ohlund longer than I thought initially. Bad no call, especially given how this entire series has been called.

 

[Darkstone42]

Make-up call on a super-soft interference.

EDIT: I don't like the call purely on the premise that it's a make-up call. Just get the call right initially.

 

[ELYEAH82]

About time...Not sure why I am excited about a PP though

 

[joe_baran]

Bigtime make-up call on that quasi-interference. Please, if ever there's a time to make Tampa pay for taking a penalty... this is the time. LET'S GO PENS!

Just keep the momentum moving forward!

 

[Darkstone42]

Tampa should take another one. Maybe the Penguins can score on a 5-on-3...

 

[Darkstone42]

Kovalev had a lane but tried to make a slap-pass instead. If he were passing to a sniper, okay, but he was passing to Michalek, and this team needs shots.

 

[joe_baran]

You'd think with how much of an advantage a PP gives Tampa on icing the puck.... they should be forced to call two penalties at once to truly give the advantage they're supposed to :P

 

[Darkstone42]

Other than that, this powerplay actually looks decent.

 

[Darkstone42]

That might have actually built momentum for the Penguins. Wow. They looked good. More motion, quicker decisions, more shooting. Who'da thunk it?
