I had to listen to the first two periods on the radio as I was at my daughters softball game. Sounds like the Pens aren't blasting people in this game like they did in game five. Need to pick up the hitting and make these midgets like Gomez and Cammalari (sp?) pay the price!

WTF kind of call is that on Cooke? Interference my ass, he put the shoulder in to him! Pens need to kill this penalty and get a big lift from it.

Shit, 4-2 Montreal. Goligoski made a huge mistake on that play.

YES, Sarge with another slapper and the Pens cut it to a 4-3 Habs lead. 1:24 left in this game.........Pens have done this before.

Montreal wins 4-3 and we'll have a game 7 in Pittsburgh Wednesday night.

Pens did not throw their bodies around in this game and it cost them.

Wow, no Hal Gill, Crosby gets a goal, yet Montreal wins. Mike Cammelleri is keeping his team alive. Withhout him you could slap that toe tag right on the Habs. Lapierre w/ a beautiful goal. Glad to see the Spaceman get a big one. Good for him.

It's not midnight yet, boys.

Not a good game by the Pens. I think they'll rebound in a big way on Wednesday night.

In his career, Fleury has been money after a loss. I'm banking on MAF and a big time physical game from the Pens........I want to see "Soupcan" put through the boards by someone, dude's a punk!

Haha, Soupcan has been awsome in this series. I can see why you don't like him, but a punk?

He's a punk! He will engage someone and then skate away, fucking coward in my book. Believe me, someone will cut him in half if he keeps that shit up, obviously it won't happen in the playoffs but during the regular season someone's going to get him and get him good. He took a shot at Crosby after the final horn blew, Guerin dropped the gloves and that piece of shit turtled right away, he's a no good dirty coward!

I have a bad feeling about this now.

Habs have just hung around too long and now anything can happen in a Game 7.

Very similar to the Islanders series back in '93.

Dude's showed a lot of poise and has stepped up more times then he's backed down in this series and you know it.....

Habs force 2 game 7's, against the President's trophy winner and the Defending Stanley Cup Champs, they still lucky?

Amazing game by the Habs tonight. That is the same Habs I watched here in DC. Outmanned, but simply have more heart than their opponents. The third period was total domination by the Habs.

Yeah, they gotta be lucky. How else do you explain such crap defense, a goaltender who has no freaking idea where he's even at on the ice 99% of the time, and nothing but garbage goals going through the presidents and now gm 7 w/ the Gods of all things hockey???

How else can you explain that than luck??? I mean, that's A LOT of luck. But still has to be luck. Just keep telling everyone that and maybe at least one person will believe it, LOL.

Montreal's proven it wasn't a fluke they eliminated Washington. They are tough and gritty to an obscene level. Honestly, right now, I won't be surprised by ANYTHING (other than one team blowing the other out) that could happen in game 7. I think it could go multiple OTs before one team finishes off the other.

Pens might be the superior team as far as talent goes, but the Canadians refuse to accept defeat. Every time the Pens strike, they slap them right back. Montreal's gained my respect and I can only hope my team pulls this series out in the end.

I think it was the third goal in the 3rd, by the Habs, the backhander, top shelf, that was just sick. No luck, straight skill. I was in bar with a friend watching it, and one girl, who doesn't know hockey was like, "Wow, that was nice."

Montreal is pretty darn good team that has been incredibly hot in the postseason. Forget that number next to their name. It didn't mean shit in the 1st round in the East.

Still, I think the Pens take Game 7 at home.

Yeah, they're lucky and I'm not changing my story! Pittsburgh started to dominate again after Crosby tied the game. Once again, Pittsburgh failed to convert wide open chances and Montreal had NOTHING to do with it, poor execution on the Pens part and they abandoned their physical play.

I'm with ewok, Pens will come out steaming in game seven and go for it. All these comparisons to 93 and even 96 are valid, but this series also reminds me of last year versus the Caps where it was close and Pittsburgh smoked them in game seven.

As I pull for the Bruins to get their heads out of their asses, I can only root for Montreal in this game 7. To have home ice in the ECF for Boston would be amaaazing.
