Wow. Always take the over in Pens/Jackets games

 

[dare2be]

No, not always.

6-3-3-8-3-7 are the numbers this season.

 

[Darkstone42]

Nis-cannon with the goal!

Niskanen. That pay day

Niskanen with a bomb to make it 3-1

I didn't see the first several minutes of the game, but I really liked the zone time from Pittsburgh's bottom six. If they can control the puck a bit, and keep that up throughout the playoffs, it would be huge for the team.

 

[Darkstone42]

Kunitz retaliated on the late hit, and the Jackets start on the powerplay.

 

[Darkstone42]

Fleury comes up huge there.

 

[Darkstone42]

And now a Jacket to the box, Umberger for cross-checking at the end of the powerplay.

 

[Darkstone42]

Comeau with a presumably dumb penalty.

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

Some bad penalties by the Jackets

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

Matt Calvert with a shorthanded goal!

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

LOL Comeau comes out of the box and right back in he goes with a tripping minor.

Have a feeling a benching may come...

 

[Darkstone42]

The Penguins aren't taking passes cleanly, and it's getting them in trouble.

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

This is some EXCELLENT PKing by the Jackets

 

[Darkstone42]

Fleury came up huge again. Vitale can't lose the puck on the blue line like that, though. He's got to at least get it out.

 

[tsawchuk]

Wow....how did Fluery stop that?

 

[Darkstone42]

Pittsburgh's puck management has been terrible. They can't keep it on their sticks.

Just not a very good hockey player. Also, not the sharpest tool in the shed.
