That is not even counting the West, where the Pens would surely be down.

I hate to say it but, you're 100% correct on this.


Watching this game makes me realize that I hate watching the Pens play during the afternoon as they usually come out flat.

Same shit happened like this game 5 in 09 twice, last year and now this year.

Interesting fact they just gave on Bylsma in potential clinching games at home in the playoffs.......he's 0-5. Yet, he's 6-1 in clinchers on the road, go figure?

As I type this, it's now 8-2.

Yeah, the Pens may have sent a message with the hits, but kind of a mood point when you give up a PP goal.
8-2.

Boarding call, just like the one Hedmond(sp?), who Talbot hit, put on Crosby.

Yep.
Shouldn't do it and should be called every time.

8-2.

It doesn't matter, it's one game and you move on. Pens still lead the series 3-2 and Pittsburgh hasn't lost three in a row in a very long time.

BTW, you mean "moot point", right?

I agree but Hedmond never got called for a penalty when he did it to Crosby. Kind blows up that theory.

Haha. yea, good call, thanks "Moot" point.

But, I bring up the Chicago series, as the Hawks used the blowout to move forward and take all the mo. Could Tampa use this game the same way going home?

Not really. His play should have been called. I'm all for calling more penalties if it means eliminating hits like that.

8-2 Final.
On to Game 6, Pens up 3-2.

They sure could. We'll just have to see what happens Monday night and possibly beyond that.

Also, it's "Lightning," not "Lightening." And I'm pretty sure it's "Sabres," not "Sabers." LOL

But it wasn't called a penalty so again, your theory can be thrown out the door.

I would. Because if he's going to burn to death, it should happen while he's receiving one of his beloved, cherished golden showers. That's mod teamwork!
