If you're Jacques Martin, who starts Game 2 for you?

 

[naslundfan19]

And this one's not quite over.

 

[Darkstone42]

Nice shot by Gionta there. I don't know who drew the penalty, but nice acting.

trying to keep it a game. 5-3

Halak.

Halak, Price hasn't really proven to be the better option.

 

[Hckygoalie31]

Halak.

Was it me or did Halak not move very fast at all? Not like he was during the Caps series. He also didn't come out and challenge at all.

 

[naslundfan19]

Halak would be my choice too. Did anyone else think Elliot's comment about starting Price tonight to be interesting?

The Pens have had good net presence all night. They weren't letting Halak challenge.

 

[naslundfan19]

That'll do it

Guerin finishes the night off.

In retrospect, yes, it would be a good idea, but I can't think of a reason why Price should've gotten the start after how well Halak has been playing. It's not as if Halak should be any more fatigued than anybody else. I don't even think Price should get any consideration for Game 2. Outside of the 2002 Hurricanes and 2003 Minnesota Wild, I can't recall teams having success with one goalie in one series and a different goalie in another series in recent years.

game ooooooooooooover.

lets hope the intensity picks up in game 2. that was a bit of a snoozer.

 

[miamiforlife81]

Great win, Pens made Halak look average. PP did quite well actually.

 

[dare2be]

I called it for it...2-1 each period

beer tastes better when I'm not stressed.

 

[johnnytata]

well, gnight everyone. congrats pens.

 

[IPostedWhat]

I guess good things happen when you go 4 for 4 on the PP.

Not bad considering where the Pens were during the regular season.

Big reason why the Sabres lost in their series with the Bruins.

'06-'07 Ducks come to mind with Bryz and Giggy

 

[quoipourquoi]

Oh, Versus... how dare you make a "Hal (Gill) of a series" pun.

 

[evolver115]

Good first game. I'm 2 for 2 on the GNT's. Gotta keep this train rollin!
