Let's stop the Penguins belly flop GDT

[dare2be]

Are they playing Lady Gaga?

I know the joke is getting dated, but I thought the Pens were allowed six skaters on the ice without a too many men penalty?

 

[dare2be]

dated isn't the word I'd use.

Even though we gave up the lead, I think that was a strong period for the Penguins. They played very good defense and generated some pressure. We just couldn't get the looks at the net we wanted.

Turnover by Geno leads to goal. Bad change too, but man oh man he overskated the puck beautifully.

The transition game from the defensive zone through the neutral zone looks bad. This is the first game since the first one where the D has played well, but they are still too sloppy with giving the puck up in the neutral zone with bad puck moving decisions.

Sid had a great look all alone on Anderson that I was sure would be in the back of the net. But it seems like if he sees it, Anderson is making the save. So they better get traffic in front of him.

Wow, Two trips and no call?

 

[BOSSMANPC]

Wow,

Wow, Two trips and no call?

They let Ottawa score with six men on the ice. Which proves the refs can't count. Doesn't surprise me the can't see a trip either

Looking at the replay of that Adams hit, it wasn't a board. He got him from the side, not the back.

 

[evolver115]

Fleury got lucky. That puck sat right on the line.

 

[pixburgher66]

Glass, keep your stick on the freaking ice.

Looking at the replay of that Adams hit, it wasn't a board. He got him from the side, not the back.

The refs must've been told to cut down on this form of a hit...and they also must've changed the definition of a boarding call.

 

[pixburgher66]

There's a lot of Pens forwards that have just been brutal...Sutter after the first two games, Kunitz in pretty much every game...Malkin's getting frustrated too.

 

[Jimmy_the_Tongue]

Crosby needs to wake up..if you're the best player in the world... Look like it.

 

[pixburgher66]

I dunno, I think Sid's looked pretty crisp. Just made about a million plays on that shift that no one could pot.

 

[pixburgher66]

Fleury on that between the legs shot...mannnnnnn

 

[dare2be]

Those blue-line shots by Gonchar make me cringe. That's the one thing I miss about him.

Looking at the replay of that Adams hit, it wasn't a board. He got him from the side, not the back.

Boarding has nothing do to with whether it's from behind.

This game has been a bit sloppy from both sides.

Missed chances are the only reason this one is so low-scoring.

Slop fest in OT. Just sloptastic. Engo and Martin with brilliant plays on semi-break aways.
