Nightfall 871 Report post Posted May 19, 2009 Pens momentum started to die a little near the end of the period but the Canes look slow and meh so far. Wait! I thought the refs were the reason the Pens were winning. You mean the Canes not playing well means something? /sarcasm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
titanium2 867 Report post Posted May 19, 2009 Wait! I thought the refs were the reason the Pens were winning. You mean the Canes not playing well means something? /sarcasm No they're not the reason but the sequence in which Hal Gill got away with interference multiple times certainly didn't help the Canes.

b.shanafan14 733 Report post Posted May 19, 2009 Fluery looks good, but still does the Roy exaggerated glove scoop that makes the Versus guys crap their pants after even the most pedestrian saves. Satan goal was terrible communication on the part of the Canes with a guy coming out of the box. Ward wants the Malkin goal back for sure. Thought the two penalties against the Canes, especially the first on Staal were VERY soft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nightfall 871 Report post Posted May 19, 2009 This discussion about the Pens winning purely from the refs calls in games is just setting up Wings fans so they have a convenient excuse if they lose in the finals to them. Its crazy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
titanium2 867 Report post Posted May 19, 2009 Versus talked about the Wings... And gave them compliments. Hmm. What's their angle? They praised Franzen and Cleary and their numerous odd man rushes. Versus said that Kane will not be allowed to stickhandle so pretty against the Wings. Datsyuk isn't having much luck in that department either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

titanium2 867 Report post Posted May 19, 2009 HORRIBLE turnover by the Canes. But a magnificent save by Ward. I imagine that'll be on YT within the hour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nightfall 871 Report post Posted May 19, 2009 They play defense in the East? Obviously not. Which is why the Cup winner has come out of the West the last couple years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Turretin 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2009 In the East, you are forced to choose defense (old NJ) or offense (Pitt, Car, Ott, Wash). The only team that looked halfway balanced was Boston. That is why they scared me more than the others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
