Penguins v. Islanders Round 1 Series Thread

This makes me sick like Caps '09. We could never hold a lead.

Oh, boo hoo for you.

God Fleury is horrific....I would consider starting Vokun in Game 5

Glad they got the guy and gave him the boot. As drunk as I've gotten at games when I was younger, I never threw shit on the ice (well except a hat).

Am I remembering the rulebook correctly that the refs can call a PP for the visiting team if the home crowd does something severe enough?

At least he has an assist.

I don't have a dog in this fight (okay, kinda rooting for Iggy), but the Pens are getting away with a ton of clutching and grabbing this period.

Announcer: "This is going to come down to who can make the big save for his team."

:shock:

Are we watching the same game?

I think that's true, eloco...

They are definitely in the "owed one" column in the refs' purse.

Wow. Tavares, what great individual effort. He's fun to watch.

Vokoun?

 

[Nasty_Magician]

I fucking love John Tavares.

And this is the way the Pens role. Clutching and grabbing they do and will always get away with it.

Ryan Kesler is no longer 'The Beast' - Give that moniker to John Tavares.

I almost never hear that. Except at the end of dates when I say "so this isn't happening again, right?"

 

[mall3013]

The Isles are getting in the Pens heads. The Flyers blueprint to beating the Pens. Btw, Tavares looks great.

 

[thedddd]

Ahhh....nothing like a Taveras goal with assists from Fleury and Malkin.

Taveras is playing great and the Pens have no answer for the Isles Forecheck.

They just announced that any more debris thrown on the ice will result in a penalty for the Isles...

Wayne Gretzky was wrong. 13% of the shots never taken in this series have become goals.

Lol.

Smart announcement.

Haha, the Isles local feed just caught Okposo mic'd up saying "Niskanen just fucking plowed him over! What the fuck are they doing down here?"
