The top line still looks good. Just can't bury one yet.

 

[LeaderOCola]

obvious trip

better make it 2-1

 

[Darkstone42]

Very stupid penalty by Marchand there. There was no reason to put his stick out. It's not like Eaton was going coast-to-coast, and especially up two goals, you can't do that.

But I'm glad he did.

Thr Bruins cut into the Pens chances by controlling the faceoff circle. That type of margin is quite unusual from a Pens' offense.

Need a screen. Get Kunitz in front, take some long shots.

 

[Darkstone42]

Need better play at the blueline on this powerplay. Letang and Martin have been at fault on the last two clears for Boston.

 

[Darkstone42]

Bad powerplay.

 

[pixburgher66]

Frustration. Dupuis is delegated to the third line...which probably means TK to the first. BECAUSE HE WORKS HARD SO HE HAS THE TALENT TO BE ON THAT LINE.

 

[pixburgher66]

Sid's flying/setting people up, and everyone is fanning.

 

[pixburgher66]

Beau...man. Tape to tape on those passes buddy.

Just watched the 1st and caught up on my DVR. Seguins goal was sweet.

Bruins have to keep playing hard.

 

[Darkstone42]

Another good shift for the top line.

 

[Darkstone42]

I have a feeling they're going to score soon. Pittsburgh's really playing better now.

I really dislike our fourth line. And that's including Craig M'fin Adams. They can't seem to do much of anything. Pens deadline needs: depth forward, a physical Dman. The only way I'd want one of the bigger names is if it's cheap (it won't be). Then Dupuis can go back to the third line and Glass/TK can disappear. Need an extra something from the fourth line.

Agreed, worst 4th line the Pens have had in a while, at least their play. Tanner Glass is beyond useless. TK no longer has a place on this team.

 

[pixburgher66]

Pens have really dominated play...but the Broons are pulling a vintage Devils. Dump it, change, lay back. Dump it, change, lay back. You can do that when you score...

Bruins dont panic for the most part.

Pens have not dominated the entire game. They have played a very good 2nd though.

I was referring to the second. Bruins were in control for a good part of the first.

 

[pixburgher66]

Well, the Pens better come fast in the third. Bruins played OT last night, they had the day off. Time to make that show.

Agree. Bruins are probably running a bit low on energy. 3rd for them is gonna be tough to keep up with the Pens.

 

[Darkstone42]

First, we just need that one good chance, and we need to bury it. In other words, someone not named Kennedy, Glass, Adams, or Vitale needs to get that chance.

Then we need to ride the momentum from that goal and that we built in the second to get the tying goal. Then we need the winner.

To summarize: in order to win the game, the Penguins will need to score more goals than the Bruins. Insightful, I know.
