A couple scary collisions for the Pens. Crosby into the boards and Hornquist getting a skate in the face.

 

[haseoke39]

Bizarre. Five minutes into the second, still only three shots for the Pens.

 

[joshjull]

Is the concussion spotter on vacation? I can't believe Crosby wasn't pulled out after crashing head first into the boards at speed. It's not like he just came back from a concussion or anything.

I'm glad the skate cut wasn't to bad. When I saw it in real time I was really worried.

you do you NHL :

Good god.

 

[tsujimoto74]

Yeah, not sure how Crosby doesn't get pulled for concussion screening there.

The Caps absolutely killed it in the 1st. Pity this series isn't the ECF, it's a great one.

 

[joshjull]

Bonino with another embellishment drawing a call.

 

[brian_griffin]

Should WAS hold on, gotta think they'll close it out on home ice, Crosby or not.

 

[brian_griffin]

Nice active stick by kuznetsov

 

[AustonsNostrils]

what a strange game, the Penguins and their fans seem lifeless.

they miss Letang big time.

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

I didn't expect this kind of performance from Washington. Nor did I expect Pittsburg to be so porous defensively. But I guess 3 (now 4) goals will do that to a team.....

But I'm enjoying having my expectations unfilled (for a change)!

Nice to see Carlson get a goal.

 

[TheStorm]

I actually feel bad for Crosby for once. And I hate the people who run the NHL even more. Who's fault is it for not checking him after that? Toronto? I want to blame Toronto.

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

Sorry..... 5 goals now!

 

[brian_griffin]

Great play by Burakovsky (sp).

Agree. But the replays showed that he was playing like his usual douch bag self prior to that header into the boards......

The great Pens fans booing the hell out of their team and leaving early just shows they are the worst thing about that team. You won the freaking cup last year, put the goddamned pitchforks down. If we won a cup nobody here would get that mad over a result for at least a decade, much less the next season.

we booed the Bills during the 4 falls, I'll bet everything in my pockets that we would have booed at that game as well

But they actually failed to win a title. If they had even won one of them I think the reaction is completely different.

The spotter did not have the authority to pull Crosby because his head hit the boards and not the ice. Really.

This is definitive proof that the league is run by insane people.
