Penguins vs Islanders we might have a chance GDT!!

[DaBoltsNIsles]

Kevin Poulin will be in goal tonight against the Crosby & Malkinless Penguins. I guess this game didn't fit into Ricky's schedule, The Isles do play Ottawa tomorrow so maybe Ricky plays tomorrow.

Moulson & Grabner have been playing very welll of late. Moulson (AKA Trade Bait) has 17 goals including 3 in the last two games. Grabner is my pick to win the fastest skater in the All Star Skills competition.

Good Luck Pens fans, not that you should need it.

Hey, the Islanders have a chance even with Sid and Geno in the lineup. It was your squad that ended Sid's points streak

 

[DaBoltsNIsles]

Fleury is in goal for the Penguins. I guess they're taking the Isles a bit more seriously or it could be this is their last game before the All Star Break. I don't care who is or isn't playing I just want the 2 points.

I have a feeling the Devils are going to pass the Islanders & I don't want my team to finish dead last. I'd be happy to give that honor to Edmonton for the 2nd year in a row.

I'm really starting to miss Sid....he needs to get his ass back in the line up

Cooke is also sick. Didn't skate this morning. And apparently Koon had the same illness. We're in deep crap if those guys can't get back.

I agree, but let's not look past his situation. Concussions aren't just any other injury. You're talking about normal everyday functions of the body that can be compromised from too many bumps to the noggin.

I hope Cookes nuts fall off... right now.

That and even if he were to come back he'd be a shell of his true ability. He's said that he has issues reading/focusing/driving and whatnot, and for a player like him that's a big hurdle to jump.

He has to wait in line for the slaughter. Some guys named...let me look it up, ahh, yes, Perry and Bertuzzi are still in line. Patience though, his time will come.

Tk and Hamonic scrap, both throw punches still on the ice. Great scrap. TK is so feisty in his fights!

 

[pixburgher66]

Impressed with the Pens pace so far. Coming out flying for once. Maybe they finally realize they can go balls to the wall because it's nearly break time.

 

[pixburgher66]

And for the heavyweight rounnnnd: Konopka and Asham
Awesome. Draw there, Konopka got good jabs with the left on the jersey, then Asham owned the end of it. Good scrap!

 

[pixburgher66]

Talbot whiffs on a slam-dunk of an opportunity there. *sigh*

 

[pixburgher66]

Horrible call on the Isles there.

 

[pixburgher66]

Couple good looks on the PP. One too many passes. Good movement though.

 

[pixburgher66]

How much is Moulson? Wouldn't mind him.

 

[Darkstone42]

Great play there by Martin.

 

[pixburgher66]

I've decided that the next FSN broadcast I will get a stop watch and time how much time total the camera is NOT on the play

 

[pixburgher66]

FLEURY. Great pace to this game!

 

[pixburgher66]

It may be a low scoring game right now, but it's face paced. Good goalie action
