And if they go 10 for 10 they would be at 50%.

And if they go 0 for 6 they would be at 5.56%

And if a bus drives out onto the ice the game will be cancelled.

I disagree. A truck goes onto the ice at PPG every intermission, I think it could handle a bus

I think to make up for lack of true home ice with crowd factor the better seed should be home every game in the series

He made one veteran savvy/Cullen-esque play last night retrieving a puck on the boards...and he chased down one puck decently I thought...other than that, he was a ghost...

He's also on a line that has no direction, no goal, and is just mismashed parts...a slower, hard-working, net-front presence in Hornqvist; a plucky up-start who probably isn't a center in the NHL in Lafferty; and then what's left of Marleau...they're not offense, they're not defense, they just need to hang on...which they evidently didn't...

No head coach should base his/her decisions on what the media and fans want. But, in this case, I'd think that Sully would be just trying to be contrarian in an "I'll-show-you-I'm-the genius" manner were he to ignore the screaming chorus from ALL corners to bench JJ.

I support starting Jarry tomorrow, too, if only to send a message to the entire team, but I expect Murray to start.

Check out this statement from Dave Molinari's postgame article this morning:

"Because of the modest caliber of their competition, the Penguins still can realistically hope to claim a spot in the Stanley Cup playoffs. The Canadiens, despite having good team speed and commendable grit and Carey Price, remain a pretty ordinary bunch. They are not nearly as capable of winning this series as the Penguins are of losing it.

I'm struck by the optimism in the face of the likelier scenario playing out.

Claude Julien pretty much accused the Pens of not being committed. I wonder if that, more than fear of humiliation, will fire them up, especially on Sid's birthday.

He was solid in game 2.

I feel bad for him, really.

Is Hörnqvist trending towards a PP specialist? I could live with playing the third line quite little and have him play 99% of each power play inside Price's pants...
He only plays PP and Marleau and McCann play a shift once in a while with Crosby, Malkin or Guentzel centering them.
