2016-2017 Pens----Still with 100% more Kessel

The Pens have to clean some things up or they might find themselves behind the woodshed. If MAF lets a couple by in the first I think the game has a completely different outcome. What we need is a quick start to game 3. No more weathering the storm BS. They jump on them hard Monday night and then I will start to think the Caps are indeed done.

They are way too good of a team to count them out after only two games. The good thing is I think the Pens realize that too.

Monday night is just as big as last night. One win and WASH has life. This is one team that you can't give an inch. If the Pens are going to put them on the ropes for the knockout punch, Game 3 is the game where we need to see the Pens' best. Like you said, the Pens realize this, too. Sully will have them prepared to reap the comforts of home. I'm not over confident, but am in good place with this series right now.

After the game last night, TJ Oshie sounded like Tortelinni after Game 3, they are not having fun and need to play their game to get a win. They are not the Defending Champs for nothing. . .

I am in no way suggesting that the series is over. Far from it. That result last night is not what I expected. Especially after that first period. Unreal.
 
Pens are in their heads


Greg Wyshynski ✔ @wyshynski
Niskanen actually answered “none of your business" to both "what was said after the game? and "what was the mood?" #Capitals




Hainsey appears to be OK after blast to head; Hornqvist, Kuhnhackl also leave with injuries

Josh Getzoff ✔ @PensJG
No updates on Hornqvist, Kuhnhackl & Hainsey from #Pens

Horny took that shot above the ankle, almost on the shin from the replays I have seen. If it's not broken, I would expect to see him Monday
 
Holtby Halaked!

I was shocked to see the goalie change last night. I thought that it wouldn't end well for the Caps. I was right.
 
So looks like Hainsey and Kunhackle had stingers from the sound of things. Hope Hornqvist makes a speedy recovery
 
2 OT's! Damn



incredible game with Ottawa beating NY Rangers 6-5 in 2 OT. Pageau with 4 goals and Sens now up 2-0.

Rangers were up 5-3 late in the 3rd, on a PP, and still blew it!

OTT shredded Hank
 
Just got home from DJing a prom. I hate proms. I hate missing Pens playoff games.

What a GREAT night!

I was in the same boat as you last night DJ. I was able to watch the first period at my buddy's house, had to drive to work during the 2nd and listened to it on the radio, then put part of the 3rd on my phone when we were setting up. We did a green screen event at Mount Saint Mary's Univ last night. My job has perks...
 
I don't know if EDM will win the Cup this year, but they, like TOR, have a very bright future ahead of them. Anaheim were up 3-0 and now the Oil are down by a goal. Not to get too ahead of myself here, but the hoopla around a PIT/EDM SCF would go through the roof. The NHL would have a field day with that match-up. Sid vs the New Kid

Watched NASH/STL and the Preds are for real, too.
 
Preds look tough. Ducks brought the Oil back to earth, they pounded them

The Oil were brought back to earth, but I liked their resolve being down by three to come all the way back. If they win Wed, they have a stranglehold on the series.

So ready for tonight! Hope the Pens take any life left out of the Craps. Pound their dicks into the dirt!

Everyone's a Game-Time Decision

Pittsburgh Penguins ✔ @penguins
Coach Sullivan on the players who missed morning skate (Dumoulin, Hagelin, and Hornqvist): "They will all be game-time decisions."



Murray Skates!

Pittsburgh Penguins ✔ @penguins
Coach Sullivan on Murray's status: "Matt skated this morning on his own with no equipment. The next step for him is to get in full gear."

Amen!



Pens only had 21 and 24 shots in games 1 & 2. I hope they explode for 35+ tonight and totally overwhelm the Caps!

Take em OUT!

the Preds would a tough tough match-up for the Pens - they have speed, depth playmakers that score and size - probably the last team we would want to face out of the West

Did U see that massive possession time they had in the Blues end? Pens worse nightmare, fast teams that control the puck and don't give up turnovers


Go Oilers!
 
Mark Madden said that Horny and Hags walked into the arena and Horny didn't have a walking boot on. For what it's worth. . .

See ya guys for 1st intermission

yep. Couldn't see who it was, but another Cap hit him upside the back of the head on the other side of the goal. That's what caused Sid to buckle and Niskannen finished him off.
