All of the Pittsburgh media people that I follow on Twitter have absolutely torn the Pens to shreds...even moreso than many non-Pittsburgh media and fans. The criticism and bashing from the local media has been brutally honest. But I know, a joke here and there negates all of that.

I'd be making jokes about things like that too if my season were over.

You being a Bruins fan should know better. I recall the Bruins blowing a 3-0 series lead 2 seasons ago.

Have you been listening to Madden? I caught a few of his FB posts and I can imagine he's been losing it on the air. :laugh:

I miss that fat jackass.

I follow him on Twitter. He's been extremely outspoken. As you can imagine. LOL Ripping into Bylsma a lot.

Pitt can't control themselves around the flyers - they try to be tough guys and they're not; it doesn't help that their goalie is a sieve.

I think it's safe to say this series is over so my mentioning that wasn't about a Pens comeback but rather the Bruins choking against one of the teams we're talking about right now.

Both goalies have been bad. Just turns out that Fleury has been worse than Bryz.

I gotta find an app to listen on my phone. He f'n HATES the Flyers. Tomorrow's show should be entertaining if they go down tonight.

20 goals in 3 games? Unlikely.

Simon Despres has been called up. Probably a little too late, Bylsma. I like the move though.
