We were right there
I bought a bottle of Blue Label after the last round just in case. I get the feeling I'll be cracking it at the end of this round either way.

I'm going to start drinking at 5am so by the time the game starts, I'll already be dead of alcohol posing. This will give me enough time to become an angel and help the Kings win ala Angles in the Outfield. Then I will have a team of doctors being me back to life by injecting the tears of Ducks fans into my veins. You're welcome in advance.

I'm thinking an ill-advised Muzzin pinch or an offensive zone penalty in the opening minute of the game by Stoll wiil begin the alcoholic fanfare in casa de RP...
By 9 I'll be so ****faced I'll be saying "Xbox watch Silicon Valley!"

I'm betting the game starts with Trevor Lewis getting a massive breakaway and he shoots the puck into the netting. Then the announcers *** on themselves saying, "What a save by Gibson!!! Hnnnnng". Then Stoll takes an offensive zone penalty and the Ducks score a goal, but it counts as two because Gibson gets an assist on it.
Xbox One has no games. I haven't turned mine on in over a month.

Just picked a bunch of games up during that Target Buy 2 Get 1 sale. BF4 is extremely overrated though. My god, you would think this game was, well, the equivalent of Gibson actually.

That game was so broken that it was unplayable at launch. Never got back into it.

Haven't even touched the MP actually. In fact, after half my save just disappeared I haven't touched it at all...

Gibson would have made that save.

Too much talent for something else not to be wrong...Maybe Trotz ends up there.

I'll order you a red cap and a Speedo.
Pens would be stupid not to extend Jussi Jokinen.
Damn, three more years of Scuds ain't looking so good for them after the season he had.
Also, like Niemi with the Sharks, Pens don't win with Fleury in net.

Fleury should have been gone years ago. He is not a big game goalie. They're probably gonna sign Miller to a monster contract and flame out again...

The thing with Fleury is that he's a fine regular season goalie so management always thinks he can be fine in the playoffs. Sometimes he shows it, like in the Cup run and at times this postseason he looked very good. But he's nothing when he is flustered, because he has no fundamental game to fall back on when gets too scrambly. Therefore he never can calm down his game, as he does not have the ability to.
And that's what makes guys like Quick and Rask so good. Rangy, athletic goalies but they have the fundamentals.

That was in 2009 though. And the Penguins defense had - Eaton, Gill, Goligoski, Gonchar, Orpik, Letang, and Scuderi all playing very stifling defense. Fleury is not a big game goalie and probably won't be again. He is so mentally weak it's terrifying.
Quick is the complete opposite - a big game goalie that is tougher than hell mentally. A lot of changes need to be made in Pittsburgh and it starts with their goalie. He stinks.

Kings!
They should just make Sidney Crosby the coach and the GM. **** it, have him sell hot dogs too while he is at it. I mean, he is Jesus right?
