Washington @ Pittsburgh GNT

[elocomotive]

The Pens have yet to score a goal on the Caps this year in 120 minutes of play. They'll try tonight in a game that would put the Rangers, Islanders, Pens, and Caps all within 3 points of one another at the top of the tightly contested Metropolitan Division.

Let's go Caps!!

Remarkably similar stats from these two...outside of the head to head.

Caps have some grit this year. The type of team that can make a deep playoff run. If the Pens can play like they have lately, this should be a good game.

I'll help you out, DS. While watching tonight's game, have a refreshing Ovechkin, it's a White Russian sans Cup. Bwahahaha.

We haven't had a good Caps-Pens GNT in awhile. And many of us are snowed in today. So if you're around this evening... won't you join us!

I know my audience.

 

[tducey]

Should be a good game. 4-2 Pittsburgh is my prediction.

 

[esls79]

I would hire Esa Tikkanen out of retirement just for tonight if I was the Pens. He could shadow OV all game. Then OV would only get 2 points instead of 4.

Let's go Caps!!

 

[pixburgher66]

Both teams going with these jerseys is just...*sniff* it's beautiful.

 

[pixburgher66]

Yeah...so...that's a penalty, isn't it? Geez Orpik, didn't even try to make it look causal.

It brings back bad memories.


Lots of big hits early, but no goals yet. OV just rocked Letang, who had a nice check on MoJo just a couple minutes ago.

 

[elocomotive]

God damn... Pens getting tossed around right now. Monster hit from Orpik.

 

[elocomotive]

Fleury making some big saves early here. Pens came out strong for the first couple minutes, but all Caps since then.

 

[pixburgher66]

I want to know who is telling Bortuzzo that flailing onto the ice is a good idea. The guy is big, so he thinks that taking away space down low is good...except that he does down super early and people can just skate around him while he's swimming. There's soon going to be a "Borts Down" counter.

Thought OV got away with an interference when he tossed Malkin to the ice there.

They seem to letting them play though - very physical game early. A little Patrick Division hockey in the Patrick Division jerseys.
