Around the NHL (Part XLIII)

[LeetchisGod]

Watching this after yesterday's atrocity, I can't even put put it to words about the difference.

Teams that don't fumble the puck every two seconds and can give and receive passes correctly. Who knew it was possible?

 

[Clowes Line]

Is it weird that I become a full fledged Flyers fan during Pens-Flyers games?

 

[HockeyStickHomicide]

This pa game is getting good.

I just want each team to beat the **** out of each other until, they are incapable of playing.

In other news...

Predators' Clune fined $1,452.70 for boarding.

How does this league come up with stuff like this?

I'm the same, so no.

If you hold a gun to my head, I rather root for them instead of the Pens.

Only if you hold a gun to my head.....

Couturier is really impressive defensively. Can definitely see why Flyers fans love him so much.

And no, CCP. It's not weird at all.

They use a Crosby scale. They determine how much they'd fine said player if they did said act to Crosby, then deduct $100,000 from said fine.

There isn't anything in sports I hate more than the Penguins. I find it impossible to root for them.

Pens-Flyers is always quality TV.

I respect the Flyers at least. The Pens...not so much.

He looks hilarious offensively. Made like 3 really dumb decisions in that period alone IMO.

He'd fit right in on the rangers.

Agreed. I think he'll be a consistent Selke winner when Datsyuk and Co. retire.

It was he that on a 3 on 1 decided to deke right into Vokoun's pad, right?

 

[Clowes Line]

Crosby in a Ranger sweater right there. Why would you not shoot that?

 

[NjDevsRR]

Embarrassing defense is being played by both sides. At least they have an exciting brand of hockey, thats what matters right?

I don't know about you guys but I enjoy seeing two teams like the Devils and Rangers pride themselves on defense. Not this wide open crap being displayed right now.

 

[Clowes Line]

Rinaldo with a big hit. Pens fans boo of course.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

It was he that on a 3 on 1 decided to deke right into Vokoun's pad, right?

Yeah, I was like "the **** are you doing?". Terrible decision.

 

[The Gloaming]

Yeah Feds! Highstick James Neal and not have the refs see you! Good job.

Eh, not anymore. I'd prefer to open up the system a bit and get away from this shot blocking. Everyone here probably agrees.

I can think of a rather large number of posters who'd prefer to see us play like this.

 

[Thunderhead]

Great game so far. I want hits , fights and suspensions.

 

[JaeTM]

Yeah, I was like "the **** are you doing?". Terrible decision.

I think he tried to pass it. Still between that and Crosby's chance 2 minutes ago...both of them need to shoot that puck.
