Just What Both Teams Need? GNT | Pens @ Caps on NBCSN | 7:30 PM ET 1.11.12

Good Lord, they're talking up Orpik. Great.

 

[ritari330]

They do it with Semin all the time.

 

[pixburgher66]

It's always awkward listening to national broadcasts talk about Pens coaching history with Edzo in the box with them.

 

[pixburgher66]

Shutout for Vokoun?! Yeah, desperate times people...I'm playing the bad luck card.

 

[ritari330]

The kid on D has been pretty much invisible, that's a good thing

 

[pixburgher66]

Not going to lie, it's the weirdest sense of bad luck that this skid comes after Dan Bylsma tied Thierrien in wins.

you're doing it wrong. Gotta do that between the 2nd and 3rd periods. Jynx off.

 

[ritari330]

On the replay, it looked like that offsides call was really bad. Maybe it wasn't but sure seemed that way

 

[BF4L]

OV does have a canon of a shot.

 

[pixburgher66]

Dupuis ankle just got destroyed. If the Pens can't go one game with out an injury, there's just no hope.

 

[joe_baran]

I really hope that Dupuis was not seriously injured on that play.

Yep, DVR'd in slow mo, pretty bad call.

 

[pixburgher66]

No idea how he's on the bench right now.

Gawd I hate seeing the replay of that stuff. I cant believe he is not hurt..Glad for him but that looked bad

 

[BF4L]

No idea how he's on the bench right now.

Exactly what I was thinking

 

[joe_baran]

No idea how he's on the bench right now.

The slow mo replay definitely made that look pretty bad. Unless it's one of those injuries that is masked by adrenaline right now and he'll be out of the lineup by tomorrow morning. Who knows.

 

[ritari330]

If Dupuis ends up being okay, wow.

 

[BF4L]

I think once he removes that skate things will not be well. Maybe (hopefully) it will be fine but that skate is so tight on his foot he may not know anything is wrong

 

[pixburgher66]

If Dupuis ends up being okay, wow.

It'd certainly be a nice break.
