Penguins @ Cryers

[skullman80]

Bs call.

[shmenguin]

Least Swedish play ever by sundqvist

[Blue Canary]

Boy... that absolutely silenced the crowd. Incredible

A SHG by the Pens might inspire some boos. A wonderful thought.

[mikey]

Yeah they fell for that...tough not to call it unless you see it from the start, you won't know better not to call that...

[Blue Canary]

Good kill.

[Blue Canary]

Schenn has been playing lights-out since his brother was shipped out. Lousy deal.

[Staggy]

PK is looking good, Fehr and Hagelin are beasts on it.

[Dan H]

Yeah they fell for that...tough not to call it unless you see it from the start, you won't know better not to call that...

I wonder to what extent the NHL refs use post-game video review to verify which of their calls and non-calls were legit and which were bought, and to what extent that affects their decisions in future games. I have this mental image of the post-game refs locker room being more like:

"Hey Steve, wanna see the video on that Giroux-Sundqvist call?"

"Nah, who gives a hoot? Let's have more beer, eh?"

[meow]

Trevor Daley has been tremendous today

[shmenguin]

We haven't seen the flyers much so I forgot how much of a dandy giroux is. Dude loves being face down on the ice.

The hypocrisy of a Flyers fan is they call Crosby "Cindy" and a whiner, but Claude Giroux is one of the biggest divers and whiners in the league.

Officials are subject to review (and reprimand, if needed) and film is used a lot.

And yes, players get reputations, you know things about players. As a ref, you want to have a basis for a scouting report on players if you can..."43 has no balance, falls all the time...you better see a clear stick in the skates to call it..."

Why do you think Downie never got the benefit of the doubt haha?

You know who these guys are and their tendencies...

[crusherstasiak]

and they both know ron stackhouse

[dodint]

Phil is allergic to empty nets.

[columbia]

It sounds like the Pens should have hired Hakstol instead of Johnston.

[shafnutz05]

The ballad of missed opportunities. I've seen this script before

[Trip McNeely]

Pen's speed is causing the Flyers some serious problems. Their D can't keep up. Need to capitalize

[Blue Canary]

22 shots. Keep shooting. Something has to get through. Someone has to finish eventually.

Need something to show for all of this effort! Damn!

[Blue Canary]

I'm not a Kunitz basher, but I don't like his game at all today.

[shafnutz05]

Kunitz with three turnovers in fifteen seconds. Jesus.

[Blue Canary]

WOOOOOOOO!!!!!

HAGELIN!!!

Phil made it happen!

[FistOfCaufield]

Nice legs by Kessel to cause that turnover.

[Silentom]

What a rip.

[shafnutz05]

What a frigging effort by Kessel! And the finish by Hags!

[mikey]

Chest.
