2016-17 Around the NHL Thread 53: 2017 Stanley Cup Champions, the Pittsburgh Penguins

How did Rinne not get a penalty there

Still getting even from that blown dead goal.

 

[Boruto]

does anyone know who is responsible for the Nashville defensive coaching?

Isn't it Phil housley?

Eddie is an idiot. How do you interfere with a player when he has the puck?

Isn't he talking about Rinne interfering? I don't think goalies can hit players. It's like Tim Thomas Body slamming one of the Sedins in the slot.

off topic for the game: didnt las vegas say they have a few trades to announce? or was that just a rumor?

Yes, they have a trade or two to announce, but they won't do it until after the Finals, so as to not take away form the excitement of the series.

Once the Finals are over, I imagine the news comes out a day or two after.

they do. The league probably insisted that they don't make any trade announcements until the season is over. That was a week ago too. Likely a lot more trades have been made since then. If Penguins win tonight, it'll all come out tomorrow.

This series isn't very exciting.

 

[Irishguy42]

This series isn't very exciting.

I know, but that's pretty much what the team/NHL would say.

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

This series isn't very exciting.

idk definitely more entertaining the NBA finals, NFL otas, and the mlb.

 

[Boruto]

Penguins are not going to get any PP tonight it seems.

the refs already saved them a goal.. im not a fan of giving them more of an advantage

 

[RangerLifer]

I know, but that's pretty much what the team/NHL would say.

I know. I wish the off season would start already.

 

[RangerLifer]

Why the hell can't Rinne make saves like that in Pittsburgh? He's too mentally weak to do his job when there's a crowd rooting against him, I guess.

 

[Vinny DeAngelo]

that shot just hit rene's glove.. he was surprised by it

 

[RangerLifer]

In Pittsburgh it would have gone in.

 

[Irishguy42]

Maatta is an idiot.

 

[Machinehead]

Don't wanna hear any complaining from over there.

Nashville had a game-changing goal stolen from then for the second time in the series.

 

[Raspewtin]

What a stupid stupid penalty by Daley.

 

[Boruto]

I think the sway in the penalty calls is enough now. Can't keep calling this way even if the Preds still got screwed. Maybe for the rest of regulation and if it goes to over time, start fresh. Can't keep giving Nashville the advantage in reffing until they win.

 

[Boruto]

What a stupid stupid penalty by Daley.

can't think of a worse time.

 

[Boruto]

Oh boy. Matt Murray standing tall.

 

[RangerLifer]

Geezzzz...puck ping pong on the PP. Ridiculous!

 

[Irishguy42]

Preds going to regret not scoring on these PPs
