A game so nice, we got to win it twice!
 
What was the last goal for us like? I was out with my roommate. Love seeing that they pulled through!!!

Unacceptable.

Poo to Brass in the slot, Brass goes top shelf left corner but it bounced in and out quickly so it was whistled no goal. Some scrambling in front and then Poo puts it in again.

Puck at sideboards on the right side, zucc comes in With two Pens players and pokes it to Poo in the corner. Pass in front to Brassard who roofs it over the blocker of MAF.
 
No it wasn't but since you aren't going to change your view point I digress. He played an outstanding game, about a half dozen other people have mentioned they think you were wrong about the 3rd period. The team played great as a whole minus the 2nd.

Why do you you have such a problem with giving the whole team credit? Mister credit where credit is due.

I give the team credit. Hank kept them in it until OT. Pittsburgh had the better scoring chances in the 3rd - particularly that 2 on 0 near the end of the game. I like this team this year. I don't like all the ******** on our franchise goalie because of his contract.
 
Being outshot 28-12 in 2nd and 3rd is being "severely outplayed". We were the better team in the first.

If we follow this train of thought thru then Nash must always severely outplay his opponents as he gets a lot of shots.

Quantity doesn't equal quality....
 
We won this game

Not sure why people think we stole it

I dont think they dominated us

Neither dominated. play was even at times and went back and forth. It was a team effort.We were the better team 65% of the game and the better team won the game, Anyone who watches sports knows that isn't always the case. If we win game 3 that will be because Hank steals it for us. As I stated earlier I expect game 3 to be a clunker.

Except it's not similar. Pittsburgh had better chances in the 3rd, including a 2 on 0, than we did. They had significantly better chances in the 2nd.

If Nash started scoring we could really get on a roll. Same could be said about Crosby.

Roll players win Stanley cups for teams. There impact is just as great as a superstar.
 
Rangers won the first. Pens the second and pretty even in the 3rd. 3 games in 4 night of course they were going to be tired who cares they won now rest and do it again!

Cool bro, please go point out where I do that. You are not Hank's Keeper (nevesis' job) you don't need to defend him, especially when he's not getting **** on. Chill out.
 
This series i thought from the start would be decided like any other series or game in any sport. Defense. That includes goaltending. Your not gonna shoot 25 pucks at fluery and expect them all to go in. What you expect is like what happened during the OT goals/goal. You want that not so good defense and goaltender to creep in at times. On the OT goal...Fluery looked like a guy at an urban hip hop club break dancing... The defense might as well have had a mask and pads on ....cause they were playing goalie...That breakdown which creeps in is what will be the difference in this series...along with the fact that the Rangers who have a great core of defense men and goaltender just need to minimize...better to stop...but all they have to do is minimize what the Pens can do...including PK....although tonight taking 4 penalties is not good...they killed them off...but moving forward try to minimize the penalties you take... further more keep their big guns also to a minimum...tonight they did that... Defense in any sport wins championships...its proven throughout the history of any sport. Rangers have a great grasp of that formula....LGR!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Im really unhappy with Richards tonight. His passes were horrible. He hit the tape on 1/10 ish. Shots wide (as usual). Bad decisions on PP. And not a single **** given on the backcheck. No one wants to pay $6,7 mill for that. He better step his **** the **** up.
