Nice glove

 

[Darkstone42]

Fleury with a sick quick glove for the second save. Nice.

 

[higgyfan4]

Malkin's baaaaaaaaaack...

 

[Darkstone42]

Well, Geno's feeling it. Flying all night and capping it off with that nasty piece of work. Wow.

 

[dash]

Malkin's was a dirty dangle, Letang's goal was absolutely filthy...

 

[BlueandWhiteForever]

Hate seeing a great game like that end in a SO, but oh well. Pens steal the bonus

 

[puckhead]

can't really say good game Pens, but it had its entertaining moments.
congrats on the extra point.

same move to beat Lou.
put it in the book.

 

[Darkstone42]

Very much an offensive battle tonight. Both teams were flying on offense and making mistakes in their own ends. Good to start the season with a 2-spot, though.

 

[puckhead]

Well, Geno's feeling it. Flying all night and capping it off with that nasty piece of work. Wow.

really??? outside of the first five minutes, I thought he was pretty damned invisible.

 

[Darkstone42]

really??? outside of the first five minutes, I thought he was pretty damned invisible.

Well, he looked fast. He wasn't necessarily making plays, but he at least doesn't look slow like he did last year.

And he and Sullivan seem to have figured each other out already, which is a good sign.

+1 In the first half of the first period he looked incredible. And then I forgot he existed. Very Malkin.

 

[Darkstone42]

I keep forgetting your a Pens fan. For some reason I thought you were a fan of another team.

Like who? I do tend to occasionally dabble in pulling for the Coyotes, but that's about it.

I'd like to point out that the Flames are only one point behind the Canucks with a game in hand...

This could be the one and only time I get to say this all season.

 

[DeathByEmu]

TWO power play goals, Geno hits a shootout try, Neal scores, and Cooke has more points than penalty minutes???

Man, it must be late.

At least you root for the second best team in the division. More than I can say.

Ill be +2 ... he had some moments but for the most part I noticed him most falling down alot on the ice

/that being said (and I havent read through the thread so if its been pointed out i apologize) ... the ice looked horrible!

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Marco Sturm is on the 2nd power play unit? Will that change when Kesler returns?

probably not.
Burrows is taking Kesler's spot on the first unit, and he usually doesn't play on the powerplay.
so the 2nd unit might be left alone.

That's not good, he's not a good finisher. Not a fan.

Canucks have done a great job getting back in this one. Good finishing to offset a pretty bad defensive night. I see some Sedin magic to finish this one...

Im gonna BOOK IT now ... I think Sturm gets waived by xmas

 

[dare2be]

It's a shame these two teams don't play each other more often...

We can rectify that in the SCF.

 

[SuperFlyer13]

We can rectify that in the SCF.

You could if your team was actually gonna be there..

Morning gang!
