[Faubert5]

THAT'S a nice win. Good effort boys.

[Orlando Penguin]

Awesome kill to close out the game and 2 quick goals on the SO. That's a good 4 points, kids.

CAN WE PLEASE MOVE TO THE WESTERN CONFERENCE??

welp with those 2 and OTT's L today people can stop thinking were going to miss the playoffs, not that there was ever any real chance of that happening

[the errey i breathe]

Nicely done Pens!

[Avyran]

tl;dnr of the game from anyone?

Opportunistic first period, Kunitz scored. Team tired in 2nd period. Hard work in 3rd period, amazing 4-minute PK in overtime.

[Sarcastic]

That was fun.

[She'sTheFastest]

Shootout is meaningless. What a character, cohesion builder. That's exactly what these guys needed.

I think I understand where you're going but at this stage in the season this is an important point.

In the long run, we are both correct. That point could be HUGE but the effort will probably prove to be just as effective.

I enjoy these threads a great deal. I post on Panther Lair too and some of those guys are not so much fun.

depending on what Boston does Tuesday, we can end the Flyers season on Wednesday.

I know the Sharks might miss the playoffs but they have some serious talent and are desperate. Hope the momentum from the effort carries on and that Kunitz and Perron get off the schnide as a result of this game.

Three stars:

1. MAF
2. Sid Crosby
3. Brian Engblom

This is so true. There are plenty of guys on that team that I hope to see stay in the West for a very long time unless they play for the Pens.

Flyers are already eliminated.

Good GDT, Kicksave.

[Faubert5]

Sid on the shot that hit Engblom:

"I heard it."

Ouch.

[bhaw]

Really good game and impressive effort coming off back to backs (Sharks did too) with a lopsided lineup given the 5 D.

PKers deserve a really nice dinner on their teammates after the OT. I think Adams gets a 24 hour free pass where no one can say he's useless. Fair game again on Monday

MAF played well and got the help of the posts in OT and SO, but I know goalies say that if it hit the post, they didn't get beat, so the post didn't really help.

Hornqvist is awesome. Goes 100% at all times. I can forgive his penalty a) because we killed it and b) because he worked his butt off all game and made a lot happen.

Source of the post MAF played well and got the help of the posts in OT and SO, but I know goalies say that if it hit the post, they didn't get beat, so the post didn't really help.

The post means they just missed the net by the slimmest margin possible.

[Rylan]

Unrelated, the highlight to quote feature is amazing.

[Craig]

Maybe im a scared person but after the early part of the game that shouldnt hsve been close. Sharks suck. Statistical win, hopefully they can somehow build momentum off of it too.
