If Ozzie was playing, this game would still be tied at 0-0 right now.

Brothers Karamazov for me. I like the depressing, existential stuff.

Why can't we win 12 straight like some other teams?

Unlike the Pens, who win everytime.

Howard looks like Edward Scissorhands out there. Guy has no control of the puck with either his pads or glove.

Blaming it on the goaltending is getting kind of lame. I remember last year Carcillo got in the heads of several of our players, especially Homer. Then there was that game in 2007, where we got blown out and pussed out when the Flyers challenged us physically. They'll play us the same way the Ducks will, except they have more pests and fighters than the Ducks, and are a lot more talented. Not to mention, it would be the last series of the playoffs. Not the time you want to play an extremely physical team.

If he could score with Draper's stick, then I'd really be impressed.

Winning 12 consecutive games is difficult against any competition. We've seen the Wings lose to these supbar teams many times before. Strength of schedule is important, but you can't just discredit an entire team's run because they play in a different conference.

I may sound crazy, but I prefer that to the uncreative crap they're wearing right now.

I wouldn't. Everytime we play them, they seem to bully our team out of the game. That would be a bad matchup for us physically, especially in the final round of the playoffs against a team that would be super hungry after coming so close last year.

After seeing that, I just feel like drinking a Margarita right now.

Great argument. You should be a political analyst.

The Pens are the best team in the league right now. Who will be better in 6 months, or who's better on paper isn't the question.

How about a Panthers vs. Lightning game for the battle of Florida? I'm sure NBC would love that s***.

Pens vs. NHL All Stars This would be an annual game in lieu of the All Star Game.

Why call him out only? That whole team sucks. Everyone is underachieving. As for him, leaving Atlanta may be the worst thing that ever happened to him.

Hmmm....trading a guy for nothing. Hudler. :!:

Especially when there's a trojan involved.

Try firstrow.net And you didn't really miss a fight. It was too lame to call it one.

God we suck at fighting. Please trade Hudler for an enforcer Kenny!

It doesn't matter that it's the KHL. It's the North American enforcers who are starting all these fights right now in the KHL. Not the Russian players.

Darcy Verot.

A win is a win, but that 3rd period was tough to watch. I can't believe the team came out and played like that.

Good period, but the powerplay is still having a hard time doing much right. If not for Lidstrom, this would be a closer game right now. His goal and his great defensive plays have kept us up 2. Expect Montreal to get several powerplays here.

That was Crosby-esque. Awesome play by Pavel.
