Coreau getting the nod in net. LGW!

Our first line is good man. NHL video below https://www.nhl.com/video/zetterberg-opens-up-the-scoring/t-283200844/c-46983503

I'm fine with Coreau playing tonight. This is a game they went into heavily favored to lose regardless, Mrazek came off two solid starts after a few abysmal appearances, why toss him in against the offensive powerhouse Pens and risk him giving up 4-5 and knocking him down a notch? The Isles game tomorrow is less tilted, for both Mrazek and his confidence, and as a game overall that can be won. Mrazek gives us the better chance to win than Coreau in a more winnable game. Just my opinion though.

Ever since "Do you believe in Miracles!?!" Nearly Every announcer has tried to create their own iconic moment. Most to fail.

Zetterberg looks way better playing with Mantha!

Z + Mantha = Magic

Your buddy must not be that good of a gambler if he gives Howard a 42% chance to win this game.

Nyet. Howard too injury prone, historically s***s the ice after December. Consistently. You don't trade Mrazek. That would spell the immediate end of Holland...which I'd love, but not at the expense of Petr.

Curse of the 2 goal lead? With this wings team its the "curse of the any goal lead or tied in the third."

They are still very good at spending large periods of time in their own zone

Fair point. The Pens announcers are terrible, but an extended listen to Jack Edwards is enough to make one want to self-Trotsky. If he was Finnish, it would be a scene from Spamalot....

Mental picture of Swedish fish, flopping around

I imagine other teams' fans feel similarly when they're forced to listen to Mickey.

Ya, these kids are real, let's hope they don't turn into Nyquist and Tatar 2.0.

i like that Coreau kid. Will be good backup for Howie and the starting tender in two years.

I would argue that all of those players use(d) their size to their advantage. Like, Mantha doesn't throw his weight around aggressively, but we've seen him use his size to protect the puck, drive to the net, outmuscle smaller players, intercept the opposition's pass attempts with his long reach, etc.

The statement still stands lol

Osgood I never understood the hate for. Winning record everywhere he played, two cups (nearly three) as starter, loved being a Red Wing. He had bad games and some bad playoff rounds, but overall he was a solid goalie who got the job done. He'll never get the praise he deserves though. And yes, In Mrazek's last three starts he's been stellar. His numbers are looking better now.

Bertuzzi steamrolled anything in his path (Until Moore, then he played like he was scared to touch anyone for fear that they'd get hurt. That s*** messed him right up). He could fight if he had to, but no one messed with him anyways, so he never had to. I saw him at a beer store here in Sudbury one summer. Dude is MASSIVE. Agreed. Vanek uses his size all the time in his game. Mantha as well.

Ive hated the guy since 2002 when he ruined one of the greatest US Soccer moments by exclaiming "Mine eyes have seen the glory" after the US upset Portugal in the World Cup.

We used the inept PP to lull the Pens into a false sense of security. >:)

Vanek with a seeing eye pass? Nice! He continues to be the steal of July 1! Cannot hold my excitement enough for when AA gets back!

Yeah, sorry you feel you're getting shafted by the zebras at home.

Gotta be happy to be up after the first. 1:47 of carryover PK to start the 2nd. So this is what it's like to be here by yourself!
