GDT: #59 - 02/07/14 | New York Rangers @ Pittsburgh Penguins | 7:00 - MSG2, NHL NET

[Machinehead]

He has more actual hockey talent than Cooke.

That's nice. Doesn't change the fact that he belongs in a cage.

Tied with the pens in the 2nd and you would think Nash scored 5 goals on Lundqvist by reading this thread.

He's the reason we're tied, so you know, he might as well have

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

What an awful use of a TO,

Every time I get excited about the US Olympic team, I remember that Dan Bylsma is the coach, and I die a little inside.

 

[Holocene]

How can one team have so many ********** on it?

 

[Oak]

Can somebody unleash car bomb

 

[Callagraves]

I almost forgot how dirty and arrogant Pittsburgh is

 

[Idlerlee]

not even sure how Nash does not bury that

 

[EEDAWGZ]

Why is Joe constantly sticking up for the penguins?

 

[Machinehead]

Won't be available for PGT tonight. If one of you beautiful people could pick me up tonight that would be epic.

 

[SixGoalieSystem]

Nash has taken a couple of bad penalties for sure, but he's having a better game than he's had in a while. That entire line is doing pretty well, playing physical, forechecking, creating chances.

I pick Nasher for the GW.

If no one's going to stand up for Zucc here I presume Tollefsen will make quick work of Kunitz in the first game in the olympics. Tollefsen is probably the best fighter in Europe atm.

 

[Callagraves]

whether Cally is here next year or not, Zucc has earned an A

 

[SnowblindNYR]

We've been the better team, just gifted the Pens 2 goals. Sickening.

 

[Unpredictable1]

Wow man cmon...no life you could live could possibly make you forget that.

 

[InwoodBlueNYC]

Come on you nay sayers. 2-2 at the end of 2. Against #1 team in the East. Rangers are looking good, out shooting Pens, shutting them down, frustrating them. Pens capitalized on PP so the answer is: stay out of the box.

 

[silverfish]

I'm not going to lie, I'm 95% certain that before that last faceoff when they were zoomed in on Crosby he went up to Richards and said:

"Richie, you single?"

No lie.

Carcillo needs to show up.

 

[SixGoalieSystem]

Ahead of Staal, Girardi and McD?

I would like him to have more than one great season before he surpasses those guys in the captaincy order.

I'll be so happy if Tollefsen levels Kunitz. Its a shame he's not in the NHL now, I believe he had a contract offer from Nashville that he turned down in the end

 

[*Bob Richards*]

There it is but this time from G.

"We gotta get pucks deep".

 

[Doctyl]

No. Nash did not put the puck past Lundqvist nor did he make a horrid defensive play. He took a penalty l. That happens in hockey, get over it.

Agreed.
I am not slightly surprised that they can go against the Pens. I always know they can go against the Pengies.

Mental screwups from frustration? Cheap selfish penalties will let all that effort go down the drain.

 

[SixGoalieSystem]

Carcillo needs to show up.

Carcillo is playing better hockey than he's done his entire career. Mostly because he's playing disciplined and not taking dumb penalties.

Zucc can stand up for himself. He threw that slash.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

This game has the makings of gifting Pittsburgh 2 points. Just sickening to be giving these guys penalties as gifts.
