Around the NHL: Bylsma extended 2 years

[aufheben]

Their offense is worse than ours LIRL.

LIRL, that's true.

**** 'em.

Iggy's house sold in Calgary about a week or so ago. I think a lot of people expected him to be coming back to finish his career with the Flames, but it doesn't really look like that is his intent.

I'm not really into that whole thing about going for a Cup in the twilight years of a career. When Ray Bourque did it, I thought I was going to puke with all the hubbub.

 

[Blueshirt Believer]

The Bruins will own you if you cannot establish any ownership of the puck. Look what happened to the Rangers.
The Penguins have been much much better with the puck tonight. You didn't see those faint hope passes up to a player who was covered, with a Bruin just sitting there laughing while he took the puck from them.
Penguins weren't a bunch of lazy shmucks thinking they did not have to work hard tonight.

The better team won, though.

Main thing the Pens did tonight was they always had a third man back. They never overcommitted in the Ozone.

Bruins weren't really able to generate much offense because of it. Most of Bruins offensive game is generated on counter attack/rush. When the B's outnumber you in the Ozone entering the zone, watch out.

I thought Pens defended well outside of some stupid penalties.

What happens in Pittsburgh this summer? Coaching Change? Do they look to get one of Miller/Smith/Ect? Move for Defense?

Interesting offseason around the league just got more interesting.

Think he'll be a Ranger TBH. Glen Sather's FA special. Short term deal hopefully.

Pittsburgh has two goals in 215:19 if I remember from the mainboards correctly.

 

[BlueshirtBlitz]

Wow. Embarrassing for Pitt.

We gave da B's more of a fight, and that's saying something.

 

[Kershaw]

I remember when Ray Shero was 'the best GM in the game' during the Iginla/Morrow/Murray transactions.

Who did he honestly inherit on this current roster? Brandon Sutter? It was all Craig Patrick that did the heavylifting.

 

[*Bob Richards*]

Pens fans are going to ***** about officiating too.

Score some ****ing goals.

This could very well happen. Probably let Clowe walk and sign Iggy to a small 2 year deal. Personally, I don't like it.

I think he would be better off signing a guy like Mark Streit to similar type of contract instead.

Didn't they have a major PP advantage for most of the game?

 

[Kwayry]

Funny how Letang is the whipping boy on the Pens boards.

 

[Kakko]

screw Iginla. I still want Jagr

 

[Kershaw]

screw Iginla. I still want Jagr

Burnt bridges.

Jagr won't play under Sather again.

They had 6 PP's to Boston's 5 and yet won't let that Jagr hook at the end go.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

They had 6 PP's to Boston's 5 and yet won't let that Jagr hook at the end go.

It wasn't even that bad of a hook. His stick was there for less than a second and then he went for the stick lift and took the puck. That same type of hook happens to multiple players every shift in the playoffs, especially overtime. It wasn't like it was a blatant hook and a guy breaking to the net or something, of course they're not going to call that.

Don't tell nobody but, let 'em squirm.

Defense and Rask ain't giving anything to the Penguins. Very admirable and impressive.

 

[Holocene]

How the hell did we score more goals in three games against the Bruins than the Penguins have? I'm feeling less and less awful about our exit as this series goes on lol.

 

[poeman]

lol Dreger causing trouble

If Pens lose series in 4 or 5 games the offseason storylines may be interesting. Some think Malkin becomes a trade target. Tough call.


Sather move in!

I hope Game 4 is a blowout and we see lots of fireworks on the ice.

I said it after game 1, but I think NHL fans are owed a Crosby v Chara bout

 

[RangersFan]

i'd trade anything for malkin, but no way the pens deal within the division.

 

[The Lunatic Fridge]

It took the rangers 2 periods in Game 1 to score 2 against the bruins.

So far, It's taken the penguins almost 11 periods to score 2 goals.
