I don't like the team's body language these last 2 games. When the Pens lost the first 2 games, they still looked confident and felt like a few things didn't go their way. They never looked dead in those games. The Wings these last few games have looked dead and last night the expressions of the players showed a team with not much hunger or fight left. If that's true, home ice won't bring that back. On top of that, people are talking about some dissension in the room, and that's a good sign of a team about to lose the series. This team needs to come out next game and score first. Then, they need to score 2nd and 3rd also. I want to see passion and hitting right off the bat.

So if the Pens win game 7 on the road, that means that the series has begun?

I don't expect Pavel to play at this point. Doesn't sound like anyone on Detroit does either.

Well, I guess I can't be the only smart ass on this forum.

Can anyone envision us winning this series if we lose game 5? I can't. Our season and our Cup is basically on the line Saturday night.

Not really. Three nights ago, I had plans for us to be skating the Cup at this exact moment.

Pete, whoever he is, should be fired. Damn doctors never do anything right.

Some of the posters here make it sound like we won the game.

Why would we want this playoff choker back? We can win the President's trophy without him.

Lidstrom also looks off and hurting. Wouldn't hurt if he made some big plays on the PP right now, or anything offensively in general. He's our captain and he has to lead by example.

Pavel needs to play in game 5 or just announce that he's not playing the rest of the series. Didn't this guy learn anything from Yzerman when it comes to toughness and playing with injuries? He's a distraction right now, until they announce that he'll play for sure or miss the rest of the playoffs. The distraction needs to end now.

The Pens want the Cup more than the Wings do right now. They can practically smell it now, while the Wings who should have been able to smell it only 2 games away from it, seem to have lost all interest in winning. If they don't seem to care, why should we as fans say nice things about them?

That right there proves that he sucked, for you to single out something so minor and pathetic out of his play the last 10 games.

None of our soft Euros are going to do anything about it.

If we lose in 6, this series will be anything far from a classic. It'd be more like a classic tragedy that none of us will ever forget.

The Wings just need to come out and say whether Datysuk will play or not in this series. Enough of this trickiness s***. It's not keeping the Pens off guard and they could care less from the way they're playing. It'd be better just to put this issue to rest instead of allowing it to become a day to day distraction to the team.

We're the worst team in hockey playing with an empty net. The worst I've ever seen.

Show that someone cares and maybe teach Malkin a lesson. What's skating away like ******* going to do? I suppose we should just let Cooke run Lidstrom from behind the whole series and then shake his hand when it's over.

The fact that we were up 2-0 would make this the worst loss the Wings have had in my lifetime. Worse than the early playoff exits and worse than being swept in the Finals in 1995.

Because they've all sucked in one way or another. They sucked as a team in these last two games.

Someone instigate a fight with Malkin, please. There won't be a suspension due to new league precedent.

There's no positives at all going back home, other than having home ice, which can disappear in an instant. These two games in Pittsburgh were a pathetic disgrace and a waste of time.

Great comeback so far. I'm impressed.

So much for our great comeback. They've had the best chances in the period so far.

Some frustrated Wing needs to sucker-punch Malkin right now in the adam's apple.
